starting to get really tired of this shitty expansion. i really enjoyed this expansion towards the start but some things are really making me not want to play.
i love not being able to parse close to any mage with the legendary good ring/helm/bracers because i have the belt/bad ring/boots (i'd trade all 3 of these in for one of the good 3, which would also get rid of my soft cap for legendaries that prevents me from getting a 4th... oh wait, ian just announced they removed it x DDDD thank god i spent hours and hours grinding m+ and raids every week for nothing). i love logging in every single day to do my daily emissary quests to get a cache that always has a useless 835 item, sweet glad i wasted an hour with that shit. thank god being exalted with every faction also does nothing. i love not getting gear from mythic raids because new players join my team at like 860 ilvl and take it all, i am still wearing 0 mythic pieces and have gotten 2 useless pieces after having 5 nyth kills, 5 elerethe kills, 4 ursoc kills, and 1 dragons kill, guess this mage is already geared and that's why he's pushing the meters, yeah (
ex1,
ex2)? i love running mythic+ 10-12s every single week to get a useless 880+ piece of gear that i will never use. i love only just now getting an 840 nibble ring (fire mage bis even at a low ilvl) because out of the several arcways i've done, m+ and regular mythic i've never been lucky enough to get one until a world quest for one spawned yesterday. i love still having an 850 shock baton because i'm not lucky enough to see it titanforged after 10+ attempts of that world quest. i love how random shitty world quest items like shock baton are bis single target for my class and others. i love how there's no direct line of sight for grinding, there's just the idea that you can possibly get a legendary or a good piece of gear if it titanforges and it's unlikely that it will be bis anyway. i love the grind for artifact power, it's definitely not repetitive and shitty doing a thousand mythic+ dungeons until you hit 35 (i'm tired of it and i'm just getting to 32); who the fuck thought it would be a good idea to have the exact same dungeons being run thousands of times for an endless ap grind/possible legendary chance/titanforge chance? i love the fact that fire mage is getting nerfed to the fucking ground in 7.1.5 because it's been considered very strong, mostly not arguable because it is strong, but only actually stronger in aoe encounters, (it literally sims
130k dps less on single target in ptr, WHAT THE FUCK?), but let's just give spriest a slight nerf to stm (i actually don't disagree with this nerf, i just wish they weren't nerfing fire mage so hard) when they're actually parsing #1 on almost every raid encounter by an insane margin of damage. the only fights they are not #1 based on warcraft logs are mythic elerethe (where there are 7 spriests in the top 10 and 3 mages), and heroic ilg, and i looked at both mythic and heroic. let's leave alone arms warriors who also have the highest simdps rating (because simcraft can't properly use stm on spriest) and also parse insanely high on encounters. let's leave druid tank alone, easily the strongest tank class right now for mythic progression and completely nerf prot warr and fire mage by changing the way they are played entirely, making it so they are not only nerfed but so that these players will have to relearn their class rotations (check changes on mmochamp if curious). but hey, thankfully us unfortunate players that play one of these classes getting nerfed to the ground have a secondary option of switching to a different spec, right? fucking wrong, i have 0 points in arcane/frost because i didn't think blizzard was killing my class off completely making it worse than every other single target spec in the game. looking good for me, going to have to farm out another thousand mythic+ and raids with frost specialization on loot hoping i can get frost to where fire is... x DDDDDDDDDD.
guess this is my rant, felt like complaining about some of these things about legion that are slowly turning it into wod and if they don't change things for the better it will become worse than wod ever was. at least in wod there was a clear sight of grinding/farming for things that you wanted, in legion it's just endless grinding hoping that you'll get a legendary or good titanforge piece while also hoping you aren't softcapped, etc. i have hope for the future, considering tomb of sargeras looks great, nighthold could be great, and the fact that we're literally going to argus at the end of the expansion, but i just hope that it turns out as great as it sounds.
