Why on earth aren’t conduit upgrades Loot Spec Specific? I’m sitting here on a Feral druid getting conduit upgrades from Soultwining Crescent and other items for Guardian, Boomy, Resto and i will never get any use out of them, meanwhile my feral conduits are low ilvl.

Comment by Violet915I'd compliment this if only it didn't take them half the expansion nearly to realise their idiocy. >.>Comment by SimplepathA small number of people who have grinded really hard to get all their conduits to 252 and farmed a ton of research to gamble at a chance that they get an upgrade for their spec will be angry and rightfully so but this is a good change regardless.Comment by st1flerOnly took like 9 months!Comment by pghcrewThanks, glad you did this just after I've already unlocked all of my offspec conduits before getting my mainspec ones.
Why in the world wasn't this a thing from day 1 of shadowlands with the old upgrades from venari?Comment by turboooAbsolute %^&*!s. Just spent 70k+ research this morning.Comment by cokeboyswagO'Neal and Ybarra already leading better in a week than pony tail did his entire career.Comment by OlsofaToo late for me, but if you still do korthia daily on said character you will eventually get them all fairly quick anyways.
This does helps slightly to get what you need faster though.Comment by Gryph667The differences in reactions are very similar to the arguments about canceling student loan debts...Comment by AluganaBlizzard is like that guy having nightmare every night that he is late for work. And then he wake up, and... he is really late.Comment by CornbreadPopsBetter late than never, pity they couldn't announce it earlier, literally did like 20 conduits yesterday :/Comment by FerlathinThis is great, except I spent ~40k on them a few days ago when I hit tier 6.Comment by Nova5269It's crazy that this had to wait like 2 months after the release of 9.1 to happen, instead of ALL THE TIME people were mentioning it during PTR.Comment by cokeboyswagThe differences in reactions are very similar to the arguments about canceling student loan debts...Comment by Hiroki1313That's quite a late change and that's not enough. I should defo be able to target the one I wanna upgrade.Comment by HumtolYeah it sucks if you already did spend a lot into these. But gaining 1500 per day is not a huge task. You will be done after 8 Days if you are unlucky. That is 16k research compared to potential 63k (more for druids, less for DH) if you are not a mythic raider.Comment by WretchedmistSome people are frustrated about the lateness of this change, but at least they made the change and addressed the feedback. Hopefully it's a sign of more things to come.Comment by AlasperSo am I going to get a refund on all of the research I spent rolling prot and holy conduits that I don't use?Comment by KerathrasWhy are they acting like this is the first time they’re hearing about this and thanking us for the feedback that they never listen to anyway! This was one of the most widely requested changes since the closed beta with everyone who got access exhorting other testers to follow suit. The expansion should never have launched with the conduit upgrades and and energy system as it is now. My subscription expires later today. Too little too late.Comment by KerathrasSome people are frustrated about the lateness of this change, but at least they made the change and addressed the feedback. Hopefully it's a sign of more things to come.Comment by Virgo4EverAs many have said, this is a nice change but it should have been this way to begin with and the only reason it wasn't was so it would take people longer to get what they need and add game time.

You get no praise from me for doing this so late in the game. At the very least it should have been in patch notes for 9.1 so we knew it was coming.
