Comment by LedarenSo it's as the logical people assumed then.

15 runs is way too much with this anti-abuse system in place.Comment by minka25Calculate by the lowest is incredible stupid.

So if I wanna help a friend in his +3 but normally run +10, I get a low itemlevel reward or I can't help him?

Am I right? That is stupid as hell :D Or I understand it totally wrong.

Edit: Thanks for explaining this in the comments :)Comment by knight85Does this new system still REQUIRE you to run a keystone each week to get the reward for mythics?Comment by LainiWeizSo if I wanna help a friend in his +3 but normally run +10, I get a low itemlevel reward or I can't help him?

But it does disincentive people from running lower keys to help others out if they have to then off set them with more higher runs.

I see a huge nerf to the # needed every week on the immediate horizon soon after launch.Comment by DruffbaumCalculate by the lowest is incredible stupid.

You can complete an entire raid in 2 hours, say 6/8 while on progression. So why does the mythic+ objectives requires 15 +15 mythics to complete ? Even with amazing organisation, gear, and preparation, with flight times and the actual timer of the dungeon, it would take a minimum of 10 hours, it's ridiculous.

Taliesin & Evitel talked about this in their latest video and their solution is amazing. Your 3 choices are defined by your top 3 mythic+ dugeons, but you still need to do a number of +X keys to unlock the bonuses (maybe not 15 mythic + though, I'd say 8 total (including the 3 +15s) would be enough.

That way you incentivize high mythic+ players to help friends and guildies with lower level keys, you reduce the incredibly stupid long grind every week to get your choices,; but it's still hard work.Comment by MestorisSo if I wanna help a friend in his +3 but normally run +10, I get a low itemlevel reward or I can't help him?

Am I right? That is stupid as hell :D Or I understand it totally wrong.Comment by trius0I get what the system is, but i really dont understand why this just could not be ilvl of the top dungeons instead.

If i have done +15, +15, +15, +15 & +11 and i have 4 loot unlocked, it should all be +15 loot and the +11 should have nothing to say. And if i unlock a 5th piece of loot, i should only need to do one more +15 to have all be that ilvl.

There is no need for blizzardto try to 4D chess boosters on this, its not gonna work and you're just over complecating it. Hot damn.Comment by AlakeiThancanCalculate by the lowest is incredible stupid.
