As NerdEggHead said in the GitHub-discussion:
This really isn’t a great argument. Yes, nobody is forcing anyone to do anything in a video game, but that doesn’t mean a poorly designed system shouldn’t be improved when it is re-released.

So you’re saying that they should just have waited with arch, and capped all epics to 525? just be happy that we don’t have to do this with the already big grind for pre bis items at level 85 instead.
is the grind horrible boring and time spending? Yes… yes it is, but rather to do it now than to do it when there’s alot of other ‘content’ to also be doing.
Gatekeeper? Just because I’m stating facts and disagreeing with your views?
But we will have to do that with the already big grind… because it is hard to find the BIS item due to a limitation from the past.
It’s not a design they wanted for this prepatch, it’s a relic from cata.
Why don’t adapt it to the current player ? It’s not game breaking and it would smoother the experience for us.

Pre-patch wasn’t in the best state as is. No bad luck protection only enhances the issue.

There have been loads of changes to classic over the last 5 years for players to have better qol in the game. Making an archaeology pet spawn at 450 instead of keeping it at 525 just because thats how it was in cataclysm isnt game breaking and would go a great length to help people farming the sword and staff.
and yes gatekeeping, you say you have what you need, good for you, some people get it first try, some 50 tries, some 500, some 1500, it shouldnt have to go on to that extent for people, even during a pre patch when you can choose to do or not to do it is irrelevant

No, add BLP and everyone will be happy, even the ones that aren’t doing archaeology now. Atleast they’ll have an incentive to start, instead of being discouraged seeing some people solving 1000 trolls without get a wep.

It’s crazy how they won’t even communicate, not even a “yes or no” answer. Archeology will stay the same until released and that’s all.
1200 total solves thanks blizzard

If they want to quit game because profession items good for them is real solid excuse for it but lets be real… No one quits wow!
No one guaranteed u will clear raid only if u have that items like wtf 
Wow was always has and bean game mix of skills + gear. Just gear dont mean nothing but literally nothing. If u have skill u will clear raid, sure will be faster and little smoother if u have full bis gear.
I still hear echo of people voices how they say retail is crap and first little harder grind they got on Cata classic …Meltdown broooo!
U r not special nothing if people in Original Cata could do this you can as well!
Archeo wasn’t available on pre patch you still don’t get it ?
This is even better than orig cata. U can now have before u hit 85 lv and in cata actual play game and not dig for 3 bis items lol
What is not good there?
Some people getting their bis in less than 1 hour of farming meanwhile others digs for 200+ hours and don’t have a single epics. This is not good at all.
Back in the day archeology was released with the expansion, with leveling, gearing for raids and cie you didn’t had time to push archeo that was fine. Now we have nothing to do, but digging our 1000th sites to have a 0.01% luck to get our pre raid + NM raid bis weapon.

Ye but what this statement have wit your last one…
It just dont make sense at all lol xD
I still dont get it… They give u literally U CAN DO IT NOW SO U DOTN NEED LATER!
Yes it is hardcore grind but optional no one forcing u to do now or later when Cata hits. Just now they give u little advantage u can obtain early. Will u get it at 50 or 300+ digs is about rng,
I see more problem that in wow people never wanted to grind something it was always meltdown. Demanding Blizzard to give them. Is more cringe because this is pre bis raid gear lol
exactly! people dont get that
i won’t even bother arguing, this sentence prove that you haven’t farm archeo yet. It’s not about 300+ digs, i’m currently at 1200 artifacts, and some people have reached 2K+.
The fact that archeo is available now is kinda cool, but the rng is really bad. Just add a Bad Luck Protection and everything will be fine.
