This was so poorly thought out. People who have excess flightstones don’t have M+ rating and vice versa. Also if this is really meant to be catchup gear why tie it to M+ rating at all? I really wish they’d stop forcing M+ down everyone’s throat after they completely ruined the entire game mode.
Granted that you can get 441 from doing Emerald Dream weeklies and from Raid Finder, it seems really stupid to lock this behind M+ rating. If it was BoA Champion lvl that would make more sense.
Now, remove the cap from the flightstones.
Nice, but why not a month ago?
The Volcanic Equipment Chests got SO much negative feedback from the RNG of these boxes, did they not learn from last time? What a waste of Flightstones. What they REALLY need to do is make the Crest Discounts and the 3 Dreaming of... achievements account-wide.(Better yet, go back to the Badge system. It wasn't unnecessarily complicated and worked great for everyone!)
That's some complete BS that it requires a Mythic score to purchase.Not a day goes by that I don't have to hold the hand of someone that says they "only do Mythics", explaining how to get gear for their alts using the already-existing catchups out in the World because they don't understand anything else in the game...and now they get to get BETTER gear for their alts?Nonsense. They can run for the same pieces that everyone else gets to chase per week....or you can open up that Flightstone vendor for everyone else, too. It doesn't take being a Mythic runner to have more flightstones than you can use.
a use for flight stones to gear my newly max level alts and otherwise won't be used until the new expansion.
This is probably just intended to nudge people towards doing mythic, which means paying for boosts, which means buying tokens.
now where is the conversation of crests to flightstones?s.th. like 5 whelp → 10; 5 drake → 25; 5 wyrm → 50; 5 aspect → 75
So, these are effectively "throw away your flightstones! because we, blizzard, don't want to give you a real use for your excess stones."350 per box of 441(why so low ilvl) RANDOM slot gear... (Because of course it's random, so you can get the same slot/specific item 5 times in a row.)
wait wait wait lmao what if someone is so far behind that even 1k isnt something i have? like i never understood the catchup gear. like why would someone want to reach a rating to get gear to actually play, should just go back to old gearing style where you just raid for gear and remove this intermediate gear thats for casuals who dont gear btw
Should just be 350 flight stones and then just add the ability to purchase based on the gear slot. Can still be a random item but let players target each individual gear slot.
Guess they need more people in mythic+ for their metrics or something.
