I’m one of those players that doesnt raid anymore because the mythic raid is ridiculously hard.
I think if ingame leaderboards with something like diablo or warcraftlogs and easier raids could highlight a completely new competitive aspect for wow. Individual performance rankings ingame for dps and also Group performance for speedrunning and boss time kills.
I really get where all of you are coming from and it makes sense.
What I was trying to point out a bit more was probably that the mythic raid is way too hard. Only a small fraction of the playerbase gets to experience it.
I think if it was easier and the difficulty was “artificially” created by the playerbase through speedrunning, we could see a whole new scene that can keep raiding fresh for an entire tier. Something similar to what happened in classic wow.
Hate it. Competitive gaming is toxic imo, and there’s more than enough (too much imo) in WoW already. Don’t want more of it and definitely not leaderboard nonsense.
I think there’s enough competitive things in the game for a player interested in that to be satisfied in most contents.
How about more simple things added just for fun? Like the brawler’s guild. More things like that. There’s no need for rewards when it’s fun in the first place.
