It's been said that the lower loot drops are for so people would better appreciate it when loot finally drops for them - make them more meaningful.How can anyone appreciate that if they don't get loot in the first place?As for Timewalking, I'll just stick to the regular 5 dungeons for the easy 200 iLvl loot. It'll give me a more certain way of getting Nathria gear than running the actual raid.
Just give us master loot back.
A couple things I wish people would realize:The anima you get for killing a boss is not a replacement for your loot. Decouple it completely. The options are not "a piece of loot or 35 anima;" the options are 35 anima or no anima. It's completely unrelated to the loot discussion.The vault is a great improvement for sourcing loot. Just like normal, the more content you do, the more options you get. Don't like M+? Cool, then down some raid bosses and get a guaranteed piece of loot. Raiders never got that option before and it's honestly pretty cool. My only real complaint is that you can't target loot effectively, but you can't really target loot drops either.I don't think the system is perfect - like I said, targeting raid loot or getting more choices would be great - but overall, having raided during BC and Wrath, and now BFA and SL, I very much prefer the current system.
The gear droprate itself is ok-ish as it is now, the proble comes when gear finally drops its usually a dublicate or something you already have in terms of ilvl (ooor sometimes the secondary stats is all wrong, so that ilvl upgrade becomes a huge downgrade..<-- we cant forget about that)If they could make something that assist in that matter im all good with the current droprate.Examples.Doing the timewalk dungeon weekly, get 1 random 200 ilvl loot from CN. character have 1 singel piece of 200 gear, my boots , rest bellow that.Guess what I get? Boots, cant remember if it even was the same I had in name and all, sure thats 1 incident.Ok, vault, got all 3 dungeons open, I got 2 pieces out of 15 at that ilvl that can drop. I get 2 chests and 1 ring, ring I already had, chest as well.This is on my DK.Ok, lets continue, priest, did 1 vault, the heroic raid 3 bosses, ilvl 213 I think.All pieces are now bellow that, besids helmet thats 216.. guess what I get.. you see the pattern.Over to mythic+, same issue there, I run a dungeon, try to see what dungeons can contain upgrades, ok this dungeon only 2 pieces of loot is not an upgrade, run it a few times with different peoples keys, timed, finally get loot after 4-5 dungeons! thats ok really, buuuut, its a dublicate of what I already had, same ilvl.And this is my main issue with Shadowlands really, its a RNG upon another RNG, sure the vault have helped me get upgrades from time to time, but the fact that the lootpool is too big and the chanses of getting non-upgrade from it is kinda hard.And one of my character had almost all gear to 200, only boots stuck at 154 something, target upgrading those from mythic or raid will be a pain in the ass, doing content that drops around 200 ilvl gear will most of the time not give me what I need, so I guess I have to turn to pvp like everyone else. :( I dont say always give me upgrades, just some kind of chance/assist to increase the chanse of when finally a piece of loot drops it might actually be for a slot that benefits from it, aiming for the vault to get an upgrade as main source for PVE is kind of sad,Sometimes you get a small upgrade, helmet 207 over a 200 helmet, but the secondary stats are totally the opposit, so you only downgrade yourself. add that to the calulations on the above and you have a sad time.
better be satisfied or Blizzard take your anima away
Yay, running an entire dungeon and coming away with a whopping 35 anima.. Good times!
Timewalking: Lowered the amount of loot per person in Timewalking raids to better match Shadowlands raid drop rates.GG Blizzard, once a month is it ? event, lol.
I love how people compare loot now and back in vanilla (or classic now). Like we did not have 7 expansion between.
Yeah so much entitlement. Why should a heroic raid boss give more anima than a world quest? So entitled.../s
