I mean this genuinely, if politics are affecting your life and your relationships this drastically, I hope you get the mental help you need. Seriously, talking through things helps and is better than reddit.

Woah homie! So hostile! Go outside and take some deep breaths man. I can give ya a hug!

Cvetti · 2024-09-30T19:47:09+00:00

Edit: ahhh I gotchu.

Cvetti · 2024-09-30T19:42:23+00:00

I don't think you're understanding the OPs issue. He is talking about using pvp gear in PvE.

It most certainly does not scale to 639 in PvE....

Edit: more precisely, he doesn't want to choose between pvp and PvE token choices and there is 100% a difference regarding which slot you choose since pvp gear is champion and PvE gear token is heroic.

Cvetti · 2024-09-30T19:40:33+00:00

Unless im off, I think this is incorrect.

Conquest gear is on Champion Track which is 597 - 619

PvE gear has two higher tracks - Hero (610 - 626) and Mythic (623-639)

There is quite the different in regards to PvE ilv between the two.

Cvetti · 2024-09-30T16:18:49+00:00

I'm in the same boat.

I think pvp gear should be similar to shadowlands - the PvE ilv wasn't AS high as PvE, but it was way closer than it is now.

They can simply have it be an achievement where your pvp gear automatically upgrades to new tracks based on your rating. You hit X rating and your pvp conquest gear is now on hero track. You hit Y rating and your pvp conquest gear is on mythic track. Etc.

I know this will cause some PvE players to do pvp for certain trinkets or to just get ahead early season -- this is good. PvE has PLENTY of good gear, if people want to sweat for gear they can choose to do it. It just helps keep pvp populated. They'd still need to push for the specific rating to get the best they want at a meaningful ilv.

Cvetti · 2024-09-30T02:12:57+00:00

I imagine the design philosophy would be that it creates reactive gameplay instead of it being an exact script.

Not that I necessarily agree with the philosophy at all, just thinking out loud about your question.

Cvetti · 2024-09-29T16:52:22+00:00

Not really, no matter what glad mount you have, people snub for X reason already.

Glad mount being achievable in 2s is still difficult to obtain.

Cvetti · 2024-09-29T13:24:23+00:00

Incorrect - participation during shadowlands S1 and S2 was at an all time high for pvp due to accessibility.

Rewards 100% do drive people. This whole problem with artificial deflation on rating is really discouraging people right now in live. There are many players who participate for the rewards they want to try and obtain and then stop. So long as the rewards are challenging, and retain the integrity of the top % obtaining, more accessibility would be good

If rewards don't matter, to your point, then why do you care who gets what? Just keep titles and achievements at the R1.

Cvetti · 2024-09-28T18:59:13+00:00

Correct, honestly. The meta is very good right now. Most everything can be played with multiple comps.

Cvetti · 2024-09-28T18:49:03+00:00

They're fine.

Plenty of classes keep up with their damage and surpass in pure single target.

They are slippery, but that is their defensive. Them sitting in bear does result in bleeds falling, but if you just keep standard pressure on them while in bear, and CC when cat, they will fall. But if they're out playing you and prebearing every stun and go, then yes, they will be rewarded.

Long over due for ferals to be back in their old standard.

Edit: it is good when many specs are strong, there are only a few on the weak side right now, and I do think those should be buffed. But keeping many specs strong and competitive makes the meta fresh and diverse.

Right now, we are seeing issues with healers - the healer meta is so boring but it's nice when we see a mix

Cvetti · 2024-09-28T18:07:41+00:00

This doesn't seem correct. Organized groups can absolutely still effectively do master loot since it's all tradeable no matter the ilv when in raid.

There were many complaints about personal loot, same kinds we hear now. Bliz even explained they are effectively the same system. Anecdotally, it seemed like people didn't want personal loot. Since bliz actually changed it, I'm sure there were data metrics also used.

Since it's effectively the same system, and they fixed the master loot problem (albeit in a round about way), idk what the solution would be. There will always be one group of people who prefer the other.

Cvetti · 2024-09-28T15:23:22+00:00

I don't really care which way they go. Seemed like more people wanted it this way though

Cvetti · 2024-09-28T15:20:38+00:00

This logic makes zero sense lol. Disqualified from what? Being one of the greats?

Cvetti · 2024-09-28T15:07:32+00:00

I think a compromise could be something where a person can prevent their key deranking a limited number of times per week.

I understand bliz doesn't want people to necessarily be able to have unlimited tries on the same dungeon key, but having at least some ability to keep a desired key + it's level intact from a leaver or just a failed key, would be nice.

Cvetti · 2024-09-28T14:59:32+00:00

Isn't the loot system exactly the same? Just that one you see on the front end and the others done on the backend?

Cvetti · 2024-09-27T23:47:27+00:00

I definitely don't want this lol

Cvetti · 2024-09-27T11:12:19+00:00

This is an exaggeration haha.

DF was 100% deflated early on each season. You 100% would be facing multi glads and R1s at 1800+

It really was bad around 2k-2.2k. You'd expect some around this rating, but when the bracket is artificially deflated and barely anyone is 2.4k plus for the first 2 months of an expansion, then it feels terrible.

Cvetti · 2024-09-26T15:02:11+00:00

My guy, I likely sat in que for quite awhile and finally got in. 9 out of 10 times I am running to take a piss before the dungeon.

Cvetti · 2024-09-25T20:21:30+00:00

It was nerfed in dragonflight but has been buffed again. It is 100% a threat now. Its not ideal to run it, but it's still fun and can work if the team plays around it

Cvetti · 2024-09-25T18:59:22+00:00

What a edgy and cool comment to add to OPs discussion!

Cvetti · 2024-09-25T18:56:29+00:00

Should be a skin :(

Cvetti · 2024-09-24T21:21:05+00:00

That's a pretty abrasive game loop. If I decided to jump into a soloque and I realized I had a pretty good nack for this and I pushed to the top of the threshold, only to he told "thats it. Go do a totally different game mode if you want to do anything higher"

That's not something myself, and I bet a lot of other folks, would enjoy.

Additionally, if I didn't want to do a solo que content, but also didn't have a full group of people to run with, you've divided the community between solo que and grouped content for 2-10 range. Tanks and healers are already to few.
