Everyone hating on Siren Isle but

It’s great for completing season 1 sets , lfr , normal and hc

Missing any pieces to complete sets , and got some valorstones and crest hanging about recommend.

I think the people that are enjoying it aren’t making a beeline for the forums.

My only issue was the timegating of the gems which is being resolved.

I’m working on some achievement and mounts, adding to my collections etc.

I’m not hating it, but…I do loathe the grind.
Like, I’m trying to get the last keystone, but so far only have 2 out of 7 fragments and the drop rate is just horrible.

It’s dead obvious it’s a rehashed Mechagon ring with a repurposed Island Expeditions map.

They were selling this island as some magnificent place to have great adventures in their development videos, only to come there do a few quests, kill some rares within an hour and that being basically most of the content it offers…

While I’m glad it’s not dailies where you have to grind out for a long time, it’s still very lackluster in terms of content.

If it weren’t for the 3 mounts locked behind either dailies or grinds, the island would have been dead empty within a day or two.

Yep, when I got there I remember the gushing video of how amazing it was going to be. I still told myself to lower my expectations. Then I went there and well we know how that played out.

Just join a group if they still going . Took we 20 minutes or so to get all 7. Otherwise make a group as I see so many players implying the drop was nerfed.

No, stop defending this kind of BS implementations by Blizzard.
This mindless grinds for 0.1% drop chance items need to go, and this company really needs to pick up its act and start delivering meaningfully content again instead of these fillers.

lol I am not defending it. Just stating that it went faster in a group. I would never have thought about joining a group had I not asked in chat if it was one shard per day. A Rogue then replied and so no just join a group. The same for the Cyclonic key. Was killing the rare about 15 the first day and again he said just go fish it up. If you want to solo it it will take longer - the option to join a group will speed it up.

Yeah those 7 fragments are way over the top, especially after they hotfixed the droprate and left 99.9% people with an abysmal droprate.

Can you explain? Am I missing something?

Its alt catch content , people tend to forget that a half season patch is not mean’t for big content , season is on the end soon , there is no need for people to grind anymore as we used to , just try alts , classes , maybe your interested in a new class you wanna play on season 2 , its just “play for fun”, the max gear you’ll get in these two moths will be on s 2 lfr , what’s the point ?

You could have done that on a vendor or a wardrobe screen. No need to create an island for that…

A very good point that most of us incl myself often forget.

For example I myself didn´t bother to research and find out that only 4 citrines were available, until I was starting to get annoyed at the Shuddering Holows falsely “advertising” stormbringers dropping, Once I fountd that out, I just wrote the hour off as inadvertent bronze token and currency farming and went along my merry way.

While others OFC immediately felt themselves massively defrauded over the 3 cents worth of subscription time and went full aggro on the forums and elsewhere :wink:

Purchase 584 veteran item for iron, throw in catalyst, upgrade to 5/8, and Poof: LFR and NHC tier set mogs for that slot unlocked … not so sure how he´s getting HC mogs, though, as that would require champion items, which I haven´t seen on the island yet from any source… :beers:

Same here. Playing Siren Isle primarily to complete LFR tmogs. And best of all, it takes minuscule amount of time.

Yeah, I nearly managed to complete the monk LFR set, which I think looks awesome, in a short amount of time. :slight_smile:

I honestly don’t like to read too much in advance, it’s nicer to be a surprise.
