@thatsloudacris @TraduNaCl @lofibanshee That’s the last thing I’m saying on this. I’m muting for my mental. Tired of having these bad faith arguments with people undermining the effort people actually put in. Raiders lose their shit when it’s them. When it’s us, it’s not ok. I don’t want to be a pro to compete

@thatsloudacris @TraduNaCl @lofibanshee Point is Ion in BfA was quoted for saying there is a level of keys that’s on par with mythic raiding. Yet we’ve never seen them attempt to reconcile that. You want the absolute best gear, you have to raid. The reverse is not true. I don’t get how this is hard to understand.

Directionally good changes. They didn't go quite far enough, but I guess going slowly was justified with how badly people are reacting to M+ not being quite as absurdly generous with rewards anymore. Hopefully next up they add more cosmetic rewards + make the tier sparkles harder

@leechmonger I’m fine with this. Just as I would be with our own gearing system. Getting real tired of the game being centered around raid and the rest being an afterthought. Why shouldn’t gear matter? Because infinite scaling already exists as a progression curve as well as it being timed.

if you don't want gear to be a limiting factor then remove all gear from M+ entirely and have it as a different game mode entirely with no gear rewards (fine by me) but good luck having any form of scaling difficulty content with fixed gear

why shouldn't gear be a limiting factor lol

@lofibanshee @thatsloudacris @TraduNaCl As if raiders don’t constantly complain when they have to play the game outside of raid. Oh wait. They do. That’s why we’re here. We just want to be able to compete without having to do this shit like a second job

@thatsloudacris @HulsizerJustin @TraduNaCl So roles are finally swapped and all hell breaks loose.

@thatsloudacris @lofibanshee @TraduNaCl Someone gets it. Finally. Everyone always says, just go raid mythic then. By not, you’re making the choice to be inefficient. While completely ignoring it shouldn’t have to be that way. I just wanna be able to get better at my chosen content. Not waste time outside of it

@lofibanshee @HulsizerJustin @TraduNaCl It’s basically impossible to be an m plus main in the current system and be relevant… the gear to difficulty ratio is crazy… there isn’t a dungeon on any level that naturally drops gear equivalent to any heroic raid boss

@aluraye I wish I could distance myself from this sometimes. It makes me feel like I’m such a bad player because people will be on here flaunting high keys while my group and I are struggling. When objectively speaking, we’re doing better than we ever have. And this isn’t our job.

tabbed back in to a fellow mistweaver enjoyer next to me, this innocent soul

@leechmonger Whether the past was too easy or the current too difficult ignores the problem. Gear shouldn’t be a limiting factor in being able to push and more and more, it has been. And that’s an advantage raiders have a massive fucking leg up in.

@leechmonger I just hate feeling like I’m being phased out of my goals if I’m not immediately maxxing out my vaults. Like yeah, I’ll eventually get there. But it feels like shit hitting the gear wall faster than in the past. It’s a lot of things.

Potentially hot but in all hones completely lukewarm take but a lot of the complaints regarding the difficulty of M+10 keys and it being required for max vault is down to Dragonflight M+ giving you BIS vaults for barely any effort or interaction compared to the difficulty.

@Seige_Rootz I’m not wasting any more time talking to you either. You’re coming across as a hardstuck Andy

@Seige_Rootz Yes because 2/6 hero track is so good dude. Get real. That’s your argument is that you can be “done” with gearing in a week? Last I checked, 616/619 is a far cry from 636/639. But keep coping that mythic raid is this holy grail of a mode when far more people get CE than title.

I feel like everyone complaining about M+ difficulty are actually just in full on withdrawal from the IV of free BIS loot Blizzard has been main lining us since BFA

@_toxicblonde @thanksfocalin Can I also request for them to nerf Aug to the point I don’t feel obligated to play it? So my shaman and I can go back to playing our preferred roles?

@thanksfocalin I will do my best 🥹

I need to have words with the dev who thought the 15 second penalty per death was a good choice.

@ArrtyyTV Every day is push day when you’re depressed and have low energy 🤪

Did yall know that it's push week?

@Seige_Rootz And if you can’t understand that, I don’t know how else to put it. An over-reliance on crafted and vault which as a loot pool that embarrasses in comparison to raid loot. 18 week seasons, 16 slots of gear. Pray you don’t get too many useless vaults. It’s a shit feeling.

@Seige_Rootz When dungeons are nerfed, all it does in practice is up the cap of what is possible. The two are fundamentally so different it’s not even a good faith argument to compare the two. And that’s where M+ players are upset. That gear matters as much as it does with no direct path

@notdanaaaa @AbbieEUW Nah. I’m pleasantly surprised they only hit consume. If the community had their way, it would have been an aura nerf. We’re fine

@mistressdivy Her eyes

What’s the first thing that attracts you when you see a woman?

@TraduNaCl I’m not sure I have the same point of view. Which is fine. As someone on my team put it, I may just feel this way because I care more and am actively trying more But something feels really bad about hitting the gear wall on week 2 and every week since. Rather than me get better

@HulsizerJustin M+ gearing does need a lot of changes, but requiring higher levels for gear is a good start. The 2 main changes needed are a cap on EoD gear (copy how bountiful delves work) and better access to myth track (again, base it on bountiful delves)

@Twirlaholic @ArrtyyTV Point was flameshaper had only one venue of representation: raid. Literally all other end game modes run chrono. And it’s not even close.

@HulsizerJustin @ArrtyyTV I’m not sure if you watched RWF, but all their Pres played Flameshaper. It did just get a massive nerf tho.

Players: “Tanks are being beaten to death in 12+ keys and Aug feels mandatory to keep us alive! Help us, Blizzard!!” Blizzard:
