No, our 10 man raid group wasn't able to scale to 20, so we have to pug it for some of our roster, and thus MS > OS rolls. I've yet to receive loot on 2 lock outs, which was some 13-14 boss kills. Which is conceivably 25% of the lock outs already if we stick to 8 week phases.It feels bad being told "well there's other ways to get loot" what's the point? Perhaps if we had a better looting system like personal loot. As it currently stands with the rotation of players into the group, I'm unlikely to even finish my tier set raiding every lock out.
Having out side of raid gear be better or equal to raid gear does not solve this problem. People will just want better raid gear to drop...
Are you saying I cant get full bis in 2 lockouts? OMG! unsubbing this garbage game then.. Thats outrageous! On the other hand, getting 1 piece of loot per lockout is kinda nice so I have a reason to continue raiding each week on my main
Honestly, it depends on how long the phase will last.If they actually run it for 3 months => all is fineIf they shortcut it again => sad life
Always great as alliance to see shaman loot rot. Hope horde is getting tons of plate healing gear. Doing the math it should take 4ish weeks for everyone to get their MS set which is fine. But the other stuff is .... well kinda not great if it's not BiS at least somewhere some fight etc.
I'm fine with it. My only issue is I already only log in once a week, for 2-3 hours, then I have nothing interesting to do. I'm not really into alts or PvP. I wish there was more to the game. Some dungeon content that actually rewards you something. The incursion were a nice PVE touch but the fun lasted like 2 days.
The biggest problem of classic is loot barely matters, buffs and consumables are an insane powercreep which makes every item upgrade negligible. There's no point upgrading a Phase 2 item with 9 spell power to a Phase 3 item with 9 spell and 5 int when the consumables give astronomical amounts of stats and increases
I love how he says in the post each boss drops 5 items with 2 more being tier tokens. well im sorry to say. but my guild has cleared up to Hakkar in 2 locks outs. and the most that we have ever seen was 3 piece of gear and 2 tokens never have we had more then 6 items on a boss including the toys added...that aren't gear............ not to mention the god awful amount of shaman mail drops......as an alliance guild we have DE'd more gear then we have handed out to our raider.........so no most of my guild wont be geared by the end of this phase. nor does what mr.greenfield says make any since. literally lying to us.
Having alternate vectors for upgrades is nice, outside of one issue, armor sets. If I'm getting my chest piece one place, boots another, wrist another, etc, how am I supposed to ever get a set bonus? Granted, the bonus is mostly icing, but it's still nothing I've ever gotten as a semi serious player, even after increased effort lately to catch up with content.
Please add items to the Emerald Wardens at revered and exalted stages.
ok you could run 3 times a raid, then you get 2 pieces per run so that 2 * 3 = 6 but now Sunken them to 1 time a raid for now is 5 * 1 = 5 therefore mathematically IS less loot at least raw loot
