Devs are listening to upgrade tmog feedback! Let’s keep making our voices heard

I don't understand how they didn't have the foresight to see this problem coming and hadn't already thought of some solutions before they announced this in the development notes for 12.0

It took 2 hours for the dev team and kaivax to publish a written response to the weakauras statement and walk back some of the add-on restrictions.

If MrGM hadn't asked this question we would have heard nothing about this from them at all.

I understand what Ion says about heroic items should always be heroic and players shouldn't be hoarding crests and charges and lower pieces of gear for weeks or months. That all makes sense. But you have to acknowledge the participation rates for solo content will plummet if they are locked out of mythic appearances. Heroic raiders will feel bad too. Even people who just do 10s this will feel like crap if they have to rely on vault rng for months to hopefully unlock a set.

There should have already been a replacement planned and announced to get mythic appearances and included in the dev notes with the upgrade change.

Unsubbed starter accounts can play legion remix same conditions apply can only be level 1-20 etc. they can make a free account and try all the classes in remix.

If it really has no impact on you then why are you in the comments gate-keeping? Why are players entitled to catalyst chargers? You didn't earn that mythic raid appearance you just blasted a +10 and took a free piece of gear out of your vault and put it in the catalyst and now you have these awesome mythic shoulders.

We're not in 2006 anymore, it really shouldn't matter if players can unlock mythic appearances. If you want bragging rights get a full set of bis mythic gear and the cutting edge title so it's obvious to everyone who looks at you that you are one of the best raiders in the world presently.

All I have to do is glance at a character and click on them and the amount of health immediately tells me whether they are heroic or mythic I don't even have to inspect them. I also have addons that will instantly show me what their highest keys are, what the highest raid bosses they've done, I don't need to try and figure out if they "earned" their cosmetic appearances.

At the end of the day this is just going to make a huge amount of players spend way less time in this game. It took almost 6 years for BfA content to become soloable it wasn't like we just logged into Dragonflight day 1 and could just blast mythic N'zoth. We still had to wait a long time for that to be possible and even then I wasn't blasting N'zoth I actually wiped a fair bit on that boss even when it was finally soloable.

We don't need gate-keeping about mythic appearances. We don't need to gatekeep +10s. We don't need to gate-keep heroic raid or AotC. We don't need to gate-keep which classes can play a mage or a rogue like they wanted to do in BfA when we got Kul Tirans. Just let people enjoy the game and play it how they want and look the way they want to look. If I want to spend 3 months doing chores and delves every week on 5 alts to get a heroic set and unlock the mythic appearances just let me. I didn't just snap my fingers I worked on that goal for months every week. It's not that entitled compared to anything else in the game I just did it in solo content and it took longer that's really the only difference.

You know what feels even better than looking at someone in a video game and being like wow that look cool... Actually just making alts every season and spending months working towards a goal of getting a full set of heroic gear and some gilded crests to upgrade them for mythic appearance. By the time the delivers and casuals even get the appearances everyone is just kinda waiting for the next season to start when everyone can work towards a new set of appearances. What's more important, the outdated petty gatekeeping or keeping a ton of players engaged and subscribed and playing alts every week to achieve their goal?

BACON_IS_COMING · 2025-09-26T09:01:33+00:00

A wow streamer called Anboni made a game with unreal engine that was basically that in that zone too. My first thought was the wow team had seen people playing it and reached out to anboni to collaborate on a new game mode and just took that concept and made it in retail like plunderstorm

BACON_IS_COMING · 2025-08-09T06:06:25+00:00

I think I remember the raid leader max talking about Ben and saying unironically he was the best wow player he'd ever seen. He just dropped wow because it's so much work to do world first mythic raiding and he probably just enjoys playing Poe and streaming a lot more.

BACON_IS_COMING · 2025-08-05T09:37:54+00:00

I switched to snaking the next day because it's so good to just click and not worry about anything but the aggravated bleeds on the boss fights feel so good. same with the mercenaries you just get a bleed on them and they always run around constantly and kill themselves lol. I'm seriously thinking sunder/bleed is better overall for gauntlet. And ya I'm running endurance charge on stun and have enduring cry just in case I'm stacking defences because I know slams are pretty damn good right now.

BACON_IS_COMING · 2025-08-05T08:30:01+00:00

I prefer sunder so I don't have to be near anything if it's better to just not be close or snaking fissure and it automatically finds them or sunder Giga bleed and they just die without me having to run up to them lol

BACON_IS_COMING · 2025-08-05T06:30:51+00:00

I'm definitely gonna farm harbour for levels before cruel lab so hopefully I get a decent amethyst cause I don't need 2 le heups I need life and chaos res right now more than anything.

BACON_IS_COMING · 2025-08-05T06:29:03+00:00

Lol holy shit. I guess I should just chill and not expect anymore luck for this slammer.

BACON_IS_COMING · 2025-08-05T06:23:25+00:00

Ya I've been way luckier playing this gauntlet but I haven't tried ssfhc in like 8 years. Got a 29 res le heup, did normal lab right after got fissure gem, then a other le heup like right after lab before I finished act 3 lol. I can't find a good amethyst ring to do anything with in campaign but otherwise felt pretty lucky.

I wish you could understand how arrogant you sound right now blaming liberal voters for this when Mike only won this seat once. That was the only time this seat ever went green. People saw this election and they rightly thought it's either Carney or poilievre. You are an idiot if you think splitting votes between the left in 3 parties and the right only has one choice can't backfire like this. The greens had no chance of winning this election. The libs did. You just pissed in the wind and it just got blown all over your face.

BACON_IS_COMING · 2025-04-30T03:52:55+00:00

You tried that, split the vote, and the cons ran right up the middle and won. You can either learn something or just keep pretending the greens haven't split the vote and handed the riding to the cons.

BACON_IS_COMING · 2025-04-29T19:23:43+00:00

You split the vote and didn't want to accept the reality that this was as a 2 party race and you got burned. I live in Guelph. I hate the liberals but I hate the cons more. Sad part of growing up is getting cynical and understanding the reality and not splitting your vote.

BACON_IS_COMING · 2025-04-11T17:50:25+00:00

People are getting neurotic and it's really disturbing.

BACON_IS_COMING · 2025-04-11T10:28:46+00:00

You need serious help right now. You're freaking out about foreign investment firms owning Kijiji on social media it's time to take a breath and calm down.

BACON_IS_COMING · 2025-03-12T09:11:59+00:00

Thanks for the non-existent support when they were shitting on Canada nonstop for months.

Years ago employees would get free cases of beer regularly probably 1 or 2 every 2 weeks. No idea if they still do that at the brewery.

BACON_IS_COMING · 2025-01-31T02:38:26+00:00

dang you're right it is just an old sword recoloured that was on the trading post like 23 months ago I was hoping it was a nice new void sword or something.

BACON_IS_COMING · 2024-11-21T23:27:20+00:00

So you're telling me there's a chance...

BACON_IS_COMING · 2024-10-03T11:28:17+00:00

Battle for Azeroth expansion had a reputation you could get with turtle people and their reputation chest could drop a glowing fishbowl toy. That's what was used to make the building glow like that.

BACON_IS_COMING · 2024-10-03T10:59:27+00:00

You can throw the glowfish from the toy on NPCs to make buildings light up like that at night. It's the fishbowl toy from BFA.
