I like how it is right now but the change they I would like to see is reduced crest cost on alt. Flightstone is fine but farming 15 crest on every item piece is fine once, but if you got 4+ chars to gear, it gets a bit too grindy
For me i just gave up at 515 ilv since there is less than 2 month since Expansion and i started Almost 2 month ago .
I need to acquire nearly 800+ crest to upgrade the gear from 515ilv + to max âŚNah not a chance .
The amount is nearly 60 Dungeons of +6⌠I already burned 1 weeks to upgrade the gear from veteran 500 ilvl to 515 and now already even Harder due the limitation as well the few people that are still doing m+.
The system is ok until you reach a wall that is either (Not in a raiding or m+ party) or(Starting Mid Season where then you must burn your self with playing an extra amount of hours to reach what others have done in 2/3 previous months.)
Previous expansions you would do the content and the gear was already the reward from doing that content . Right now you must acquire the gear and further upgrade it and spend even more time for the same thing other expansions was already offering .
So yes , people get burned way easier this expansion since the demand have been already increased due the gear-upgrade . Having altâs is even worseâŚ
very confusing 
it always has been but it used to be called âtiersâ by the player base not âseasonsâ
You are missing the point. Game resembles Path of Exile now more than it did back then. Gear earned in previous seasons still mattered, and some pieces even remained better. What players are doing now is they farm the same items 4 times in an expansion. They do not even have to come up with new items each season, they just up the item level and players are gladly back on the hamster wheel

No i agree with you . i just saying it has always had seasons/tiers 
I really didnât have a problem with valor, and like I said my main issue is the lower crests (especially now since drakes come from M0).
Ahm you do know we have a new raid and new dungeon pool each season right?
Yes I made a mistake. DF changes dungeons every season so naturally the items also change, but what I meant is that they have no need to add more items to the game to keep things fresh. And one could make a point that having old dungeons as a new expansion feature is also rather ⌠what they say? sus?
I know so many players who have pointed out how old dungeons carried the DF mythic plus experience because its own dungeons did not live up to any sort of standards.
But that is not the topic now
I donât mind it, itâs a strive to have more evergreen content.
Depends who you ask, I like most of DFs dungeons and I hate most of BfAs. I liked revisiting Legions dungeons but the MoP and Cata ones were yikes.
Next expansion we are getting a mix of BfA, SL and TWW dungeons. There isnât a dungeon in SL I like.
Everyone is different
wow has a really bad upgrading system it just locks you out from grinding but you also have to constantly play the game to keep upgrading your gear
Not really, each item has a set upgrade level, once you are done you are done. Also If have a high ilvl slot you skip upgrades for that slot. The upgrade system is pretty good. The crest acquisition should be slightly buffed though.
but by the time youâre done with the correct item in every slot it already takes months. you can actually grind all of that gear in a few weeks if there werenât any restrictions but you have to keep coming back every week for 1-2 months at least
Yes and? Gearing should take some time.
it takes time because there are restrictions not because itâs hard or you grind something for a long time, you just wait for resets, refills, weekly stuff etc.

If you didnât have upgrades you would need to refarm the same item over and over again. That takes more time.
doesnât necessarily take more time, youâd have the option to plan your own grind which would be way more fun(imo) right now they put all those caps etc. to âhelpâ people who canât spend so much time on grind but in reality itâs just a timegate for everyone to make people stay subbed for longer

Would you prefer valor upgrades locked behind score?
iâd prefer nothing to be locked & have the option to grind as much as i can & whenever i want. right now thatâs not how it works unfortunately. locking stuff behind achievements/ reset times etc. is an easy way to cover up fro lack of actual content because if you dont provide 6 months worth of content & want people to stick around for long, you lock stuff behind some gates and put limits.
i do bare minimum for achievements & rewards and then leave until next season , iâd play a lot more if they respected my time more
