This needs to be emphasize massively. Blizzard seem to think making stuff just take longer will make people play more. They have got it all upside down. Make stuff interesting and I’ll play more, do more including alts. 'FUN ’ and ‘engaging’ is the metric they should be using, not ‘how-long’ and ‘how often’.
Grinding isn’t bad, it is not, just these horrible quests, terrible drop rates, poor spawn rates and the general lack of polish. If Blizzard cannot be bothered to put love into the game, why should we?

Yep. I would rather have another Argus and new dungeon like in Legion.

I actually do not feel that way about dailys… but the concept of these “rares” that are actually not really rare, and have a chance of dropping some mount thats really infuriating… the whole Arathi and darkshore zone concept sucks
but for the rest i’m pretty content 
Attacking Puny’s mvp status is so old…do you want her to not like the patch because you don’t? There’s plenty of things she mentioned not being happy about before…
People just can’t respect others opinion these days.
Is like saying you like an “hated” expansion, people will come out just to throw out their lesson on how you are wrong and should not like that because they did not.

I just can’t believe how alt unfriendly this all is to. I the Cloak is just another 8.0 necklace to power up with the rewards not being shred to your alts.

People please do a favor to yourselves and to the rest of the world. Stop playing this game and do something else
…like what? Are you playing a different patch than I am?
You can only run visions a certain amount of times before you run out of essences. It’s time-gating to give you the illusion that there is ‘much to do’, while in fact, there really isn’t. The few dailies that exist (in re-used zones from a previous expansion with re-used music) reward you with 55 worthless war resources and 50 coalescing essences and rare elite mobs are essentially worthless aside from the 3 that drop a mount. Remember, you need 10k for ONE trip into a Vision.
Hmm, what else is there to do… oh yes, that was it. I pretty much summed up all the content we’ll be having for the next 9 months in a small paragraph of text, not counting the raid.
Patch 8.2 had much to do. This patch is an absolute embarrassment. Not to mention the bugs and lags people had in the first couple of days.
Then again, I suppose if an MVP complained about how poor this patch is, you wouldn’t really be seen as an “MVP” anymore.

This makes way too much sense 
EDIT: I’m on my last token so it’s coming.
Im enjoying it so far. Glad we got to revisit old places and have to travel a little.
Though, I still miss something to grind without anyone telling me “thats enough”. Fishing amd herbs doesnt do mutch for me
I really wish people could get over the green text because I have criticised what I don’t like but when asked about the patch in general I have much to do which is what I answered. Asking what I am doing is fine but the constant attacks for being an MVP, the accusations that I do not have my own opinions etc. I am a player and I have views on things just like anyone else. I’m entitled to express those, some are positive, some are negative. I openly posted how I dislike titanforging, how I don’t like azerite gear, how I miss tier, how I’m disappointed with some aspects of the story this expansion. But the minute I answer something saying something remotely positive or dare to express that I’m enjoying something, or am not experiencing a problem someone else is I’m suddenly some shill, blizzard fan boi, blind defender or much much worse etc etc.
To answer your question why I am actually busy:-
- The first day I did a long storyline introducing us to the assaults and our cloak
- Visions as and when I get the currency to do them
- I got an Alpaca mount in Vol’dun which I had to feed some vegetation to
- Finding the friendly alpaca in Uldum and feeding it greens (this is particularly time consuming as a whole raid of people descends on one location and it often despawns before you get there)
- Dailies in both Assaults
- Events in both Assaults
- Find groups for and kill the rares that are up that drop mounts (Iskah and then either Corspe Eater or Rotfeaster depending on what phase we were on)
- Daily for the bug pet from Uldum
- Rare Farm in both Assaults, drops AP and tokens
Non Assault related activities:-
- Neck level has been raised so I tend to clear the map of all AP quests
- Weekly Island Cap
- Clearing BoD Mythic Weekly for Jaina mount
- M plus (currently only doing one key a week for chest but starting at reset it will be two full nights of M+)
- preparing for raids and m plus on reset - gathering herbs for flasks and pots I need to use, food etc.
Things I have criticised/commented on:-
- Rares in Vale seem to be a bit of a pain because they don’t all count and the ones that do seem to die before you can get to them
- The respawn rates could do with a tweak of regular mobs as some are struggling to find them, especially at peak times
- The cost of the vessel is too high and the most fun feature of 8.3 is gated by it, lots of people want to get in their and run them but can’t
- Changes to Nelf eyes (although I like them) many players are unhappy with the glow change so why not let them have a glyph or barber shop choice
- Quest objectives in most of BfA work on the basis that if you click on it, it does not vanish for others, going back to the older system where things vanish has been causing problems and brought out some selfish bad behaviour in the new assaults
- I do not enjoy corrupted gear, I am not a fan of these extra layers of RNG, is it really so bad to just have the RNG of will the boss drop something, will it be the item I need, without all this extra stuff on top
- War Mode still doesn’t work, is still full of Horde, more than Alliance, remove the PvE bonuses which increase the rewards from WQs, you’d see that number reduce on Horde as many just use it for the AP/Currencies boost
- Currently WM bonus is has been turned off due to an issue
- Auction House teething problems
- Removing WQs from the Assaults and turning them into events, rare hunting and a few daily ! isn’t really any better than just having the WQ markers on the map IMO
There may be more but that’s all I can think of, off the top of my head.

Ah the attack the green text and title but not the views ploy .
When you do that you havent got 1 valid point made sorry to say .
If you actually read the posters past history you would see them being very negative but the difference is they post in a polite and construtive manner and dont make it personal like you.
Not bored…yet, but frustrated to say the least.
I just stopped doing the dailies, very little rep rewards.
I just do the daily vision for easy 1k cv, and then farm some AP around the map. Maybe a few easy events, but the daily quests is meh.
Remember mechagon, when you only needed to do the main objective for around 900rep? 6 chests, 3 rares etc.
And nazjatar you could do very easy 3 dailies on your follower, and maybe some cherrypicking easy world quests. I loved drinking coffee and doing some puzzles and getting sweet rep from it.
Now you have to struggle to click objectives before anyone else does for measily 75 rep and 0.5% cv needed for horrific vision… No thank you, I’ll do them when they buff the rewards tenfold.

I do not find vision and assault alt-unfriendly at all. 8.2 and essences are still worse. It took me way longer to get some essences to any slot than unlock the cape.
For me 8.3 feels like a chore, and the rep rewards are a slap in the face.

he is not wrong though
MVPs only job on this forum is shilling for blizzard /shrug.
leaving this aside as it has nothing to do with discussing of 8.3 this patch is a disgrace compared to previous end of expansion patches. Argus or timeless isle hell even tanaan jungle was a masterpiece compared to this embarasment.

No they dont and you completely missed my point but then again i think people dislike MvPs because they are not one .
You cant shill and be negative at same time logic dictates you cant .
Tbh its about green text, it should be golden text with caps on all the time.
Punyelf is inspiration to all patriots of wow, infact i like her and i love her, and what im about to say is not attacking or hating. I truly, honestly admire her passion.
I like her so much that she remind me of ‘‘Kopi luwak’’ which is a coffee that consists of partially digested coffee cherries which have been eaten and defecated by the Asian palm civet.
Why do i say that to offend someone not at all, it means that even the patch is bad in her own or his mind he just makes a switch to alternate thoughts to a different state.
She also remind me about movie Shinining but with a possitive feedback.
I think they shud make character based on your kindness in wow, maybe in Light hope chapel for example.
