Tier 2 Gear - Added Pre-Buff!?
Posted: Fri Jul 17, 2015 1:18 amI fully understand the whole blizz like notion of this server, and it's the main reason I rolled here, but this is absurd.
I thought the general consensus from the entire community has been that adding Tier 1 pre-buff was one of the dumbest decisions overall by the Nost staff. It did absolutely nothing to slow down the progress of the guilds clearing content, and this tier 1 buff patch has probably been the most awaited patch since this server launched.
So I log in today, and load up atlas, and what do I see.
Dragonstalker with 2% dodge?
Wrath gear, with 0 defense on it?
Netherwind with +4 spell damage?
If I've jumped the gun on this post, and my addon's just fucking up, I apologize.
If the Nost staff have seriously not learned anything over the lifetime of their server, I don't even know what to think anymore. If you really want to be blizz like, work on getting my aimed shot to stop breaking shadowmeld like it did pre 1.7, don't make me clear an instance for a year with 1/2 of the loot dropping being totally useless.
We're supposed to spend the next year running BWL and sharding T2 so we can get a few choice items off a few choice bosses? Not to downplay the importance of items like Rejuvenating gem, or Drakefang Talisman, or Nef's loot, but seriously? 90% of T2 in it's current form would be a downgrade to T1, and is surpassed in multiple instances by blues.
We'll be picking up the ZG blues as upgrade before we see T2 become useful.
Waiting for MC till now was one thing, but BWL isn't even out yet. We have to wait for it to come out, then wait for ZG, World Dragons, Tier 0.5, and finally in a year (more?), when AQ40 comes out we'll get useful T2? At which point 1/3-1/2 the classes will be immediately upgrading to 2.5.
This can't seriously be the plan, can it?
