Casual bg players. What is our future in SL?

You just keep not seeing it.

Let’s walk through it slowly.

People who do normal raids get gear enough to do normal raids.

People who do mythic raids get gear enough to do mythic raids.

People who do mythic raids get better gear than people who do normal raids, but this does NOT prevent people who do normal raids from being competitive at normal raids and doing them comfortably.

Agree? Let’s continue.

People who do arenas get gear enough to do arenas.

People who do random BGs do NOT get gear enough to do random BGs. Because people who do raids / M+ / arenas also come to random BGs and their gear is vastly better.

Do you see it now? How many posts is it going to get for you to see it?

I am FINE with people in arenas getting better gear than people in random BGs. But since they also come to random BGs, gear in random BGs has to be either CAPPED at the level achievable in random BGs. Or it has to be SCALED to a narrow ilvl range. Or people in random BGs indeed have to have means to get best gear that can come to random BGs.

Period.

This is NOT what we have. The gear we get from random BGs is NOT high enough.

Start reading, maybe.

u get 197 ilvl right? High enough for the things you do. This is exactly how it should be.

Dont expect to get higher level gear by just spamming random bgs all day

Yes, random BG gear is 197. But other people coming to random BGs go up to 226.

That’s 29 ilvl difference. This difference is huge and random BG gear is uncompetitive. It is NOT high enough.

Can you subtract two numbers from each other?

Then put in the same effort as those people getting 226? They put effort in their char. They can get 226 so why cant you? Random bg gear shouldnt even be ingame if you ask me.

youre not meant to be competitive if all you do is random bgs. Do arenas and rated bgs to get the best gear. Thats how its supposed to be and im so happy blizzard acknowledge this

So, you agree that gear from random BGs is not competitive in random BGs, correct? Because you keep jumping between two-three different things and will likely jump back to “you get enough gear”.

Is gear from random BGs competitive in random BGs? Yes or no.

Then we will move to your other “point”.

Its competitive enough for the content you do, yes. Is the gear good? No. Is it possible to get better gear through pvp content? Yes.

This is a you problem demanding higher gear for random bgs becuz others are 226 and you arent

Cool, so your answer is that random BG gear is competitive in random BGs.

You are wrong.

Random BG gear goes up to 197. Other people coming to random BGs go up to 226. That’s 29 ilvl difference. This difference is huge. It makes random BG gear uncompetitive.

Do you see that you are wrong? If you disagree that you are wrong, tell me what part above you disagree with. Be specific.

Cycling through some old threads & couldn’t help but chuckle…

Good players should rely on skills and not gear. Do you think that Messi will beat my as s in football because he has better shoes?

what they should do (or one option) is to bracket random bgs by ilvl. so that you team up with/against people of similair ilvl.

And casuals only want to be competitive in the casual part. We do not expect to be top but not being melted at the same time. Let the pros rely on their skill and not gear

LOL, great find. :slight_smile:

then get better gear than bg gear. If others can get 226 from pvp, so can you. Youre only limiting yourself. This is how it always has been and should stay

No this is not how it has always been, it was different nearly all the time, but whatever.

You keep jumping between different things.

You said that random BG gear is competitive in random BGs. You are wrong. This is why:

Random BG gear goes up to 197. Other people coming to random BGs go up to 226. That’s 29 ilvl difference. This difference is huge. It makes random BG gear uncompetitive.

Do you agree that you are wrong? If not, which part in the above you disagree with, specifically. Or will you just jump again?

This happens in arena. No one complains there

Random bgs never were about skills

GET YOUR OWN 226 GEAR??? Are you just playing stupid or what the hell is wrong with you. Start obtaining your 226 gear like EVERYONE ELSE is doing holy crap

Can you answer my question, mate? Be calm, please.

Im not your mate. Im not answering any of your questions. Let me ask you something. Is it possible for you to get 226 gear yourself? Yes it is. Why are you not doing it? Because you dont want to. Do you deserve to be stomped if you dont put any effort in your char? Yes and blizzard agrees with me
