Hot take: You don't need to have your full Tier Set by week 6 of a 6 month season. You still have 75% of the season before you with a lot of gear to come.That being said: Most players actually get their higher equipment from M+. The vast minority of players will get stuff over 411 from the mythic raid. So for most players the catalyst is the only way to actually get good tier sets. And a lot of classes probably scale better with itemlevel than getting their LFR or normal Tier sets, considering that most of the damage bonus is around 5-10%. You get more out of gearing 411+ than getting your 382 LFR Tier.
It is definitely too late. Not having 4set just means you are not getting into a lot of groups because people ask for 4set. Doesn't matter your ilvl or score.It impacts your playing experience and people definitely quitted because of it.
Still sitting on 3/4 pieces. Did each raid and m+ for vault still nothing. So I‘m happy it‘s finally comming because I don‘t know what the word „luck“ means.
Way too late guys, please do better in the future, same thing for valor cap, getting stuck with a bunch of crap gear just waiting and waiting is the opposite of fun, remember what you did in season 4 shadowlands ? I think i speak for 90% of the players that do m+ here, that is exactly what we want in the game, uncapped valor with godamn catalyst asap, let us have fun without having to wait and wait and wait... world 1st raiders had their 4pc week one with split raids and people that only enjoy m+ have to wait for a vault that can easily disappoint you and get you demotivated to keep going just because of bad luck is def not the way to go
well.. i do nm and hc (not seen pugs doing mythic) and m+ a lot EACH id and i am still at 2/4.. so its not needed for 2.5k rio.. but stuff getting worse if u dont get invites.. because ppl looking for 4 pc (to get carried) and its a buff ~10% for dps (sure not every spec), but even bad ppl will do perform more with set.IMHO: build tier sets, but only for VISUAL EFFECTS. stop this @#$% with borrowed power. balance classes around normal gear. tier sets make balancing worse and let ppl play content they like. i would prefer having more dungeons than a big raid..
BLIZ please refund all of my leather working talents I invested. Being unable to make crafted Items into tier gear is a huge change that effects a ton of Crafters and the investments that they made. I would have never even thought of picking up Leatherworking if this was known. So basically everyone will just be crafting the Rings and Necks with the effects they want since 4 pieces of gear is basically irrelevant which is a huge hit to anyone not in Jewlcrafting. If you wanted the crafting system to work plz don't let that go through.
Will the inspiration catalyst let you transform an item that dropped before the 24th? (Can't remember how the creation catalyst worked in the beginning)
