+3 itemlevel for 400 valor points... what a joke

The thing is, they wont remove KSM requirements, they earn a lot of money from boosts by selling a lot of tokens.
Thats why they dont act against adds in lfg.
I reported so many advertisers and still they show up in lfg.

Don’t do it, then. No-one is forcing you.

Yes KSM is a conspiracy by blizzard because they want to sell more tokens for the ridiculous prices that boosters charge for a timed +15

“lol”

that was the whole point of VP implementation .

blizzard dont even pretend that wow is p2w game.

they are the only p2w game with subscriptions though .

its not consipracy - its a fact.

It’s easy for meta comps and FOTM classes and they turn round and say they legit earned it.

My reply to that is to try and run higher keys without the meta comp and without cheesing the dungeon and they suddently go quiet.

Blizz knew what they were doing locking 220 gear behind KSM and feeding the flames of community pressure for people to get it and obviously they turned to boosters and unless you nolifed WoD you obviously went and bought a few WoW Tokens to conver to gold to pay for your KSM.

ppl not interrupting on low to mid keys is whats annoying actually
mostly on spires with packs of forsworn goliath rebelious fist
castigator forced confession and warden greater healing

It is much easier if you are doing it with a pre-made group. In pugs being FOTM spec makes getting into it easier, but still not guarantees an easy run.

I recently finished my KSM too, and I only did it with people I know, so that my class does not matter that much there. Half of the keys I needed for the achievement I did on my warlock, with a guardian druid/Brewmaster monk, Resto druid, and either double warlock (destro+affli)/mage, or rogue/mage/lock or mage/shadow priest/lock combo.

Whatever Blizzard’s plan was with KSM I feel it did not hit the mark. People would rather resort to either buy gold for boosts or quit altogether. Neither is what I feel they intended, but people do tend to gravitate towards the path of least resistance.

They really made it hard for people to get things done in pugs.

I’m just completely ignoring that system, to the point that when something (the game, someone on the forum, a guildmate, etc.) reminds me that this thing exists I am telling to myself, for a split second: “ah yes, that thing exists”.
Then I’m back to ignoring it completely.

This system is just stupid for gearing twinks. Upgrading a BiS trinket and a 1h weapon to 220 lets you already hit the valor cap, depending on at which ilvl you start upgrading. From that point its like 1-2 upgrades per week and there is no way to refund that spent valor if one of these items gets replaced by vault or mythic raid, which can easily happen because of 220 upgrade cap.
