So gross of them to nerf that a week before release.Tons of guides to maximise reputation are already out and a lot of players planned their 10.2 release agenda with that buff in mind...RIP all the planning we did with our guild.Thanks Blizzard -,-
This is absolutely in response to the rep portion of pathfinder going away. Congrats clowns, you got this nerfed.
Because of course it has lmao
Accountwide reputations when..? Please.
I find this strange, like someone else said, they could've just added the "will not work with the new rep" tag, it's not the first time they do something like this, think how slow getting rep in bfa uldum and vale was compared to the other factions, and when you had the 100% rep buff, it would work on all reps except those, and so on in other cases, I don't understand why they also had to nerf it for older factions, as someone recently catching up on renown, it didn't seem game-breakingly fast with 50%, even cause the quests you could do were limited.
Can't have the rats finish the maze too fast.Yet another change in the category of "Optimizing game mechanics for more favorable MAUs on the next quarterly report". Keep Bobby happy on his way out.
And that's how you kill older patch content.
Renown 20 should reward an enchanted Aspect crest, not Wyrm. You definitely put more effort into getting renown 20 than 1 aspect crest normally.And Wyrm crests are worthless by the time you reach 20 and just delete the reward.
Did anyone not see this coming?
I love how many people think this is like the end of the world, they didn't outright kill the buff, it just went from 50 to 30%. I will concede that it's a weird thing to change at first glance, but there is likely some reasoning potentially behind it. First off, keep in mind that this is one of the Dreamsurge rotating buffs. You always have to vote on either this one, or one other choice. In it's prior state, who in their right mind would Not vote for this particular buff? It's clearly much, much better than all of the other ones. And I really don't think other buffs could be considered no matter how much they got buffed up. The buff is also still retaining it's full XP gain value (Stacking this buff with the timewalking event buff was insanely fast, by the way). Second, keep in mind that they already nerfed the PTR pathfinder requirement to no longer require the renowns to be leveled to 15. So unless you Want to do the questlines associated with them or want the Cosmetics, which are Optional , you are no longer "forced" to. The original four renown reputations have very outdated player-power rewards like the tier 1 primal infusion, so it's not something every character/player needs to do to stay relevant in the patch.In reality, lets face it. A good majority of you complaining were not planning on finishing these reps anyway, especially now that it's no longer "required" for the flying achievement. People just immediately complain and whine about any minor change without actually thinking of the implications. Everything is viewed as a game killer when this change is actually really, really insignificant. It might affect some people going for cosmetics and that's pretty much it, and in the grand scheme of things it's not going to take that much longer to get it maxed. Again, this is a Temporary buff that is not up all the time and rotates which zone it even works in Weekly. The odds that you were even getting this in the zone you wanted before was one in every four weeks (Plus time waiting for this buff to spawn) . - So a 20% nerf may seem like a lot on paper, but it's really not.
Let the players speed run it if they want holy #$%^ why try to !@#$ing timegate everything and make it annoying.Blizzard doesn't learn do they?
