You're seriously gating the rares now? (Yes Karokta)

Again your point is invalid because the majority of the player base participates in group content which is what the games focus is and has always been.

The only thing they need to do for solo players is flat out ignore them.

Why are you so hung up on solo players? Have you been to the Caverns? It’s designed for groups. The elite packs are not solo-able. They’re restricting how to play in the caverns regardless. Are you paying attention or are you being intentionally obtuse?

Why do people say this? Are you not aware there is an evil yellow ball of flaming death out there? Inside I got AC and a fan to help keep all my water inside my body instead of leaking out of my pores…to say nothing with how miserable moving in that sweltering heat and how draining/exhausting it is being out in it.

Plus it ruins my pastey white tan.

I’m not.

I have.

Join a group.

They aren’t supposed to be especially 3 weeks into the patch.

I am. Are you done crying about the games design since alpha?

65

Intentionally obtuse, got it :+1:

I’ve never seen someone purposefully dodge a point so hard before. Wow.

This guy reminds me of ion.

Describing yourself I see.

Because you can’t comprehend you don’t actually have a point.

68

Maybe this will help you figure it out.

That you can’t comprehend an invalid point you keep pushing?

My guy you’re not even arguing the point. You’re just throwing things out there that have nothing to do with anything anybody’s talking about. It seems invalid to you because you’re not debating the topic.

Fact 1 you responded to me
Fact 2 you haven’t made a point worth arguing as I have already refuted your point.
Fact 3 facts don’t care about your feelings.

72

Fact 4 you’re just trolling. Nobody’s THAT dense. See ya! :smiley:

It’s not trolling just because you can’t refute the facts.

It’s why all you do is deflect and make random statements that aren’t based on reality.

The whole point is not having to farm it on a plethora of toons everyday. They upped the drop rates, likely by 3 times since it’s a 3 day rotation. You’re getting a window to do it for the same overall drop rate you’d of had in that window.

Short version instead of having to kill it 3 times with 20 toons for 60 over all attempts in 3 days, you now kill it just the 20 times with the same chance of getting it as if you’d done it 60 times. Which is significantly better.

They’re attempting to free time in your life so you can do other content in WoW, play D4, or do anything else you want. It’s less of a grind, be happy.

Yeah… I tried.

My guild dissolved and I haven’t had the energy to get in with a new group of folks.

I have a 76, 75 sitting and waiting. My 80 hunter has done a couple heroics but that’s about it.

They are working hard on getting that /time played metric up.

Yet more future-proofing that people “cAn’T cOmPlAiN tHeRe’S nOtHiNg To Do” once the next bit of content hits and people inevitably hit a wall.

I know people who STILL go around Zeith Mortis for hours on end opening chests for that stupid mount. I never got it and I’ll be damned if I see people with 40k+ tallied also not get it.

This particular mount being time-gated on top of RNG is yet another drop in the bucket of making things tedious for literally zero reason.

I think the reason is because they have no idea how to design a compelling and engaging game so all they can do to keep people subbed is carrot on a stick and treadmill tactics. It’s worked for them so far, sure, but the cracks started to show in BfA due to lack of innovation and “more of the same”. Now the cracks are leaking subs exponentially. At some point they’re gonna have to pull away from “don’t reinvent the wheel” and start taking some innovative risks.

I raised this same stink in the Feedback thread over on the CC Forums; but I’m going to link this thread there because my monkey brain couldn’t accurately describe at the time how bad of a change this was.

To addon: None of us new this change was coming much less did we ask for it. PTR is there for a reason and everything seems peachy keen there. Why now are they changing this and for what purpose? If people were gearing too fast then put a weekly cap on the gear upgrade items like flightstones and the crests. Don’t make this as painful as Barter Bricks. There is no need to penalize collectors because people were gearing too fast.

Do you really find flying around and killing the same faceroll mobs over and over again THAT engaging? This is a good change.
