Black Lotus Spawn Rate Increased - 13 February

Yeah, long queues are one of the issues and when everyone farms AV, WSG is not popular. With instant queues it would be better. But still loses are terrible honor and I can’t win every WSG. AV, on the contrary, is pretty stable and while wins of course are preferable, even lose streaks are not that bad.

Obv some ppl will get that. But i know ppl that only can play 2-3 hours due to kids etc.

This hotfix will not solve anything as usual, simply because its not in their interest.
They just want to serve something to screaming comunity members who will feel that they have achieved something but not changing anything at all. Increasing spawn rate is just ridiculous. Gold farm mafias with tens of thousands farm bots will just have more stuff that can be offered to desperate players who have to buy gold from them which will then be sent back to mafia for their “rare” stuff.
I am veteran wow player since 2004 and when i see how gold sellers ruining economy and whole game experience for everyone im so shocked of fact that Blizzard did not solved this instead of anything else. I hate pay to win games and similar concepts but when i see this then i must say to Blizzard: START SELLING THAT GOD DAMN GOLD!! like on retail wow or your projects will all die very soon.
Only this step can heal the economy of all servers and farm bots will disappear for good.
Company will get money and for sells and for every two farm bot accounts lost by it will come back one player who has already vomited several times from the current state of the game and quit it.

If we have to talk only about lotus changes then disallow hunters can see lotus with eagle eye ability and making it fair for everyone.
Or just by making small chance of looting lotus from herbs 260 skill+ herbs like on TBC with fel lotus will be not so invasive but will make positive change for players they are really plaing this game.

There are plenty of people playing Classic, that’s for sure, but my impression so far is that most of Anniversary Classic players on the more hardcore side, at least when it comes to time investment. When I join WSG, every single player is Commander or Lieutenant Commander. There are no random people, not at all. Every flag carrier uses FAP and knows how to climb the mountains in a weird ways. So may be there are casual players playing 2-3 hours a week, but I just don’t meet them.

To be honest, this is the who knows which “fresh” in the last few years. People are more experienced and knowledgeable about gearing, routes, preparation, etc. They leveled multiple time, know the routes and caring about efficiency, more then to have fun.

Back in 2019, I have spent over 4 hours in my first Mara run because we didn’t know what we have to do and we wanted to complete all quests there.

But I also agree there was more casual players then now.

Stop changing era! I don’t care about anniversary/seasonal, but please don’t try to fix something which really isn’t broken on era. You promised us to keep these realms as close to the state they were in in 2019 as possible, now please stand by your promise.

R14 Gear was ALWAYS free and no Skill Req. Account Sharing Kids got this Title so easy

With account sharing everything is “easy”… That’s a weird argument.

How does that even affect Era? That will make actually more people using flasks during raids and it’s a nice change as well.

This may come as a surprise to many people, but you are also able to host your own raids, where you can implement your own rules, such as no flasks or wbuffs required.

Gold sink reduced! There is currently way too much gold floating around and the inflation is so horrible it’s hard to start out as a new player. We need our sinks!

Traded goods are not a gold sink as it stays in circulation
