So that means that in the firsr weeks we will have to grind lower tier content to squeeze out a couple more aspects chesr (over the cap)? If so big L
Should be 1:1 conversion rate or its completely useless.And requirements should be average ilvl, not all slots at specific ilvl...
this 1:6 conversion is all good.this is NOT a gearing method but a bonus gearing method.this is supposed to be an extra thing to make the hundreds of useless low crest u got become useful a bit.while still not be effective enough for you to go out of your way to farm lower difficulty content to earn higher ones instead.from the start I was sure it wont be anything under 3 or it will COMPLETELY ruin the gearing progress and what would be the optimal way of playing lolThe main good thing about this feature is the useless crest u earned by doing stuff not directly for farming crest.like you did Raiding on normal while u dont need normal crest anymore, u get like 120 from a single full raid.or you did mythic plus to fill your fault with more option or help some guidies but got some crest you dont need.now they all useful. but not so useful that you go out of your way to farm them instead of higher content.
Just glad that they are finally doing it the right way where as the current way of downgrading is stupid as hell
Jesus @#$%ing Christ that conversion rate is higher than Snoop Dog. How about cutting that in half?
Please for a 6:1 ratio MAKE IT ACCOUNT-WIDE.
Yessssss 1800 more crests
So when you meet the cap you will allready have outdone the armor/gear.
First reaction to a 6:1 ratio was sticker shock, but when you think through the implications I think it is totally justified. This is clearly intended as a system for inventory cleanup with a small bonus/convenience , NOT part of gearing progression. If it was part of gearing progression, it would be miserable. You would feel compelled to farm so many types of lower level content that you (likely) wouldn't enjoy. To me the 6:1 ratio means they really only ever intend for you to do this to go up 1 crest level at a time and not shuffling through multiple tiers because that would scale out of control (6, 36, 216).POV: I do heroic raid with my guild and do 16-20 M+ keys. I just maxed out of wyrm crests and have the raid trinkets I wanted and in S2 I now no longer get anything out of clearing the raid with my guild. With a 6:1 ratio :"Hey, at least I will get 1 aspect crest from clearing with my guild. That isn't nothing". With a 3:1 ratio: "Well time to clear heroic raid, normal raid, do 15 world quests, kill 10 rares, do my weekly rep quest, ". Blizz is treading very carefuly with this because they know players do not WANT to do the latter, but absolutely will (while having a miserable time) if it provides a meaningful boost to gear progression. For the same reasons I am also hoping upgraded crests are also subject to the weekly cap.
Woo hoooo excellent change ty ty ty ty ty.!now we're get somewhere
Pff what about all my current whelpling crests? Im drowning in those useless things.
Whelping to Drake - Dreaming of Drakes - Achieve at least item level 450 in every slot.At that point of iLevel you don't need the drake crests...so why don't just let us trade them....
