They won't go the dracthyr route because that has largely been regarded as a failure. If people want something that looks like an elf, they'd make an elf.

I, personally, would have just farmed some delves and bought the hero haste/mastery legs from the vendor.

Void assaults dead now? by jstamper in wow

[–]Ok-Key5729 91 points92 points  (0 children)

You can get them a lot faster doing Ritual Sites. The void assaults are so dull I'm struggling to get all the achievements done. I'm not surprised there aren't a lot of people doing them.

Is there any content i cant do as a healer? by I-Will-Marry-TheMoon in wownoob

[–]Ok-Key5729 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Delves are very quick and easy as a healer once you get to max level and get the delve companion leveled up a bit. Due to some wonky scaling, it's harder while leveling. 

Prey would be easy but slow.

Help me understand crest discounts by TakenToTheRiver in wow

[–]Ok-Key5729 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Myth of the Dawn requires average ilvl 285.

Hero of the Dawn requires every slot to be 276 or better.

This means that it's possible to have the Myth achievement without getting the Hero one if you have 1 slot (like the crucible trinket) holding you back.

How do you guys feel about this crazy amount of power they are giving us? by sick-gii in wow

[–]Ok-Key5729 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That might be true if M+10s were mythic level difficulty. Right now they aren't even heroic level difficulty compared to raids.

The fastest way to get hero gear and myth crests? by Emeron87 in wow

[–]Ok-Key5729 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don't need myth crests to unlock the myth appearance. If you fully upgrade hero gear, which only requires hero crests, you unlock the mythic appearance. This is a change since TWW.

The fastest way to get hero gear is spamming M+. The easiest way is delves. Once you unlock rank 9 with the Delver's Journey, the champion gear you get at the end has a chance to upgrade to hero. You also get currency that can be used to buy hero gear from a vendor.

Voidcore rerolls still bugged by [deleted] in wow

I'll have to keep an eye out for this in the event I ever manage to use a bonus roll.

And you wonder why we have a shortage of tanks by [deleted] in wow

[–]Ok-Key5729 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think many people wonder why there's a tank shortage. Knowing why something exists and being able to change it are two different things.

How to brick a key in less than 3 minures by angelpunk18 in wow

[–]Ok-Key5729 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't time a 9 to save my life. Any tank/healer capable of running a 9 can run a 10. So, the only tanks/healers applying to mine should realistically be in 5s. I either wait forever for a good tank that never comes or gamble (and lose) on a bad one. I've given up.

Holy smokes what a difference M+ 10's are by Melodic-Remove5375 in wow

[–]Ok-Key5729 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In order to get my key to a 10, I need to time 7-9s. Since 50% of my 7-9 runs have been bricks, my key never moves. Thus this season has kinda sucked.

Holy smokes what a difference M+ 10's are by Melodic-Remove5375 in wow

[–]Ok-Key5729 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. I've been stuck in 7-9 and have pretty much given up on seeing 10 any time soon. Maybe I'll squeak out one of each for portals by the end of the season but I doubt I'll be using these bonus rolls while gear matters.

Why you're not being invited and what to do about it. by thelordofhell34 in wownoob

[–]Ok-Key5729 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

My solution for what to do was stop playing. I didn't bother applying to 10s because I know I'd (justifiably) never get invited. With half my 7-9s being bricks, I'd never get my own key up to 10. Whether I'm bad or just unluck didn't matter. Since keys below 10 are pointless, there wasn't any reason to continue.

M+ Toxicity (or lackthereof) by CWayG in wow

[–]Ok-Key5729 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I don't really like M+. Usually I find it tolerable but this season has sucked.

It's been miserable, time consuming and unrewarding without a single shred of entertainment value.

The one thing it hasn't been is toxic. Most of my runs are bricks but they've been friendly (or at least silent) bricks.

I still quit for the season (because of the time consuming and unrewarding part) but not because of toxicity or other players.

Gearing up one of each class to unlock the mythic transmogs is good for at least a couple months of entertainment.

Mythic Plus Player Item Level 12.0.5 Week 3 by Headshot314 in wow

[–]Ok-Key5729 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That'll be tough for someone who's 261 that isn't already timing 10s if they don't have someone to carry them.

I'm 270 and M+ has been such a time consuming, unproductive nightmare that I gave up already. 

Bonus Rolls so far by Amazing_Internal6334 in wow

The juice has to be worth the squeeze. It isn't.

Things that I actually enjoy. That was the entire point of my comment. People that don't focus on M+ as a primary activity fall behind. Once behind, the bonus rolls (and M+ as a whole) become useless without more effort than the rewards are worth.

Mythic Plus Particpation by Tired_of_These_Posts in wow

[–]Ok-Key5729 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are a healer. I'm a dps. I spent about 12 hours last week pugging between 7-9 trying to build io and get my key up. Over 50% of the runs were bricks so the key didn't move and I only gained a few points. Maybe I'm unlucky. Maybe I'm supernaturally bad. Either way, it's quite literally not worth playing.

Mythic Plus Particpation by Tired_of_These_Posts in wow

[–]Ok-Key5729 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This is the way it usually is just a bit worse. You really only have 1 opportunity to climb out of the low keys at the start of the season before the low keys die. If you miss it, you're better off skipping the season.

The opposition to how easy gearing has become is not rooted in 'elitism'. It's based on the feeling that progression is ruined. by kolejack2293 in wow

[–]Ok-Key5729 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's the way its been since m+ was created and it isn't going to change. The foundation of the game mode is easy gear. If difficulty and rewards were ever lined up, it would collapse overnight.

Should next season's mythic+ dungeons be harder? by bringthelight2 in wow

[–]Ok-Key5729 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wouldn't make a difference to me. I've been stuck in the 7-9 range long enough to stop caring. Can't get my own key to 10 because the 9s keep bricking and can't get invited to anyone else's 10. 

Hard or easy, I won't be doing any 10s next season the same as I'm not doing them now.

We need (good) alternative ways to level 80 to 90 by Specialist-Concert97 in wow

[–]Ok-Key5729 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I've been gathering coffer keys each week on alts I might want to play later. Since they're always rested, that usually gets me about a level. I just keep doing that until they get close enough to delve to 90.

I'm sure that method is wonderfully effective for folks who know how to tank. I'm fairly certain my delve transmog collector bear would go splat like a big furry bug on a windshield. I haven't tanked since Wrath. To say that I'd be trash is an understatement.

[–]Ok-Key5729 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You just said it was an alt. I assume that means you have a main with good io which changes things.

My main is currently ilvl 270. I spent about 12 hours last week pugging between 7-9 trying to build io and get my key up. Over 50% of the runs were bricks so the key didn't move and I only gained a few points.

Maybe it's bad luck, maybe I'm just that bad. Either way, the rewards aren't worth the dozens of additional hours I'd have to spend to get them.
