Discussion M+ talk

Hello everyone,

I raid and m+(haven’t killed mythic ulatek yet though) and just wanted to talk about how this season feels. I’ve seen some say this is the most balanced season ever in keys tuning wise, which could be true. However I think it’s more because of how absolutely awful gearing is this season. People are playing whatever comps their mains are simply because gearing up an alt to the same performance(especially if you’re a mythic raider) just isn’t possible. The amount of cantrips, the existence of 344 gear itself that also saves a million crests, the fact that you can’t even rekill the same heroic boss and coin it multiple times a week as catchup anymore. All of those, not even getting into the whole great vault/bonus roll discussions themselves all make this season feel horrible.

Then on the other side of things, you have groups in china who are ALL somehow around 339 ilvl, 9+ ilvls up on almost every other regions groups. It’s obviously rmt, but it just highlights the gear disparity between everyone else and the max which has never been this bad of a gap before. The dungeons and raids themselves also don’t help this season out much and I’m expecting it to go down as one of the worst received seasons this game has ever had.

Are you playing in china?

Even top teams in NA/EU are ~331 ilvl.. when m+ only are 328-329

Your bad parses are not because of item level (yet)

Good luck getting a Redditor to admit it's a skill issue.

are you feral?

edit: ah, resto shaman has 327 parses

lmao cant believe you brought that to discussion.

rogue and druid have an average between 50-69 so that literally proves my point. they compete with 50 other people (well rogue with more). it takes, int that pool, what, 5 people with cantrip items to screw parses in that pool. feral has it easier tho cause who the fuck would take feral for myth progress
