WTF Great Vault RNG

No, someone said Vers wasn’t a stat he used, I corrected the notion that Vers is exclusively a PvP stat. That’s not semantics, that’s literally not understanding what Vers’ function is.

You then came in with whatever it is you’re trying to say when my point was that Vers was also good in PvE.

Except it did, the game director explained nerfing m+ loot would be compensated by weekly drops in an interview.

Cite what he actually said. Paraphrasing means you can make him say things he didn’t actually say.

That’s the issue, the original design of it.

The loot calculation:

Meaningful choice * RNG * 3.50 == your loot drops.

I know everyone probably already complained about Great Vault, but is this a joke on me or what? I got wrist last week from there. All I do is m+. This week I get 3 options, and all 3, ALL FREAKING 3, are wrist. Really? You couldn’t give me any other options? Seriously blizz, wtf are you all doing over there? Get your heads out of your collective a**es and fix this junk.

That was just a catch phrase for Ions army of uninformed dolts to use defending a crappy system.

Yup my box is absolute garbage, seriously has me considering whether or not I want to continue playing this expansion. I grind M+ week after week, and never get anything but 35 anima, and the pieces in my great vault are just literally trash with my worst stats.

Not really, there are several specs that use it as one of their primary secondary stats.

So the exact quantities are still evolving (please don’t quote me 100% on this) but notably for Mythic+ it will be one item from the end-of-run chest that is repeatable. The weekly loot chest will still have a greater selection of items to choose from (still one a week) but that should be a more reliable source of upgrades since you can best pick the one that suits your needs out of a wider range of things that you’ve earned

The amount of people who cry over the vault is hilarious. I have gotten an upgrade every week. Sure it might not be “the piece” I wanted, but I got one. The people who are complaining about not getting an upgrade are the ones who got one unlock. I can sympathize with that expecting something after a week, but good lord man, it doesn’t take much to get a couple unlocks.

3 choices on my pally. All duplicates.

7 choices on my shaman, 4 duplicates… and one that wasnt was an upgraded version of a duplicate.

70% duplicates across 2 characters. At least I didn’t get the same belt for the 8th time this week.

Why keep clearing the same content for no reward?

Verifiably false.

did you think that meant you got to pick BiS gear? was that even said in relation to gear at all?

Doesn’t need to be BIS, just needs to not be the same crap over and over again. Still zero weapons from my vault all expac.

The weekly cache has never provided meaningful player choices. The vault just offers more rolls.

It’s superior to past versions, but RNG is RNG.

The last 3 weeks, the vault has known I needed trinkets, but it keeps giving me bad ones. Such is life.

This is an alt I’ve been toying with making my main. So I forget that I haven’t done LFR and run it in the middle of the night. Only drop I get is a 187 version of the necklace I already have, so I offer it up to others via /roll. This AM, the only thing waiting for me in the vault was the same necklace. I know I didn’t do a lot of content but it still #feelsbadman

They do it to lengthen your gear progression. Imagine how long it would take to get BIS for each slot with the vault… Thats a lot of sub money.

They are also playing the Casino game. They are hoping that addiction of the unknown in the hopes of winning big locks you in.

That’s basically it really.

Don’t pvp without any Vers that’s if anyone bothers to group with you after noticing you don’t have any Vers gear or atleast %20 Vers.let me know how that works for you bud

Vers isn’t a PvP stat. It’s on PvE gear and works just fine in PvE too.
