People who don't enchant/gem their gear - why?

The only thing I’m hesitant to buy is the belt enchant, I will use it eventually on bis belt tho. (did on my main already, for example).

And this is the only enchant I verbatim mentioned in my OP that is “too expensive” and “unnecessary”. :wink: I mean it gives you 106 stamina - it’s minuscule - won’t save you from one shots and doesn’t add damage but costs 9k gold? Haha :smiley:

Maybe the game needs a guide with cheap enchanting. I didnt know about a weapon enchant for 90 gold till this topic, for example. And i have checked enchant guides on icy veins for example. I am for sure not putting a sophic devotion of thousands of gold on a 450 fully upgraded rift weapon.

I don’t know if it’s true for everyone but casual mindset is just that even if one manages to get to higher content. I won’t really bother to do so until I hit a wall.

Costs add up too, and I’m still saving for a Lightforged Warframe.

Making it more concise would have encouraged people not to skim read it.

OK gen Zer

And there we have it, the prime example of someone not having a response because they very well know they are in the wrong and being a hypocrit.
Way to ruin your own thread

Typical toxicity from a hypocritical wannabe raidlead.
The funny thing is that i actually agree with your initial point but your attitude makes me hope you never get anyone enchanted applying to your groups ever again.

“I joined a pug”

There’s the answer, probably no rules were stated, expect whatever because the playerbase is vast, with different mindset, different knowledge, not a hivemind.

That made me giggle. Especially in combination with your guildtag :smile:

On topic, I don’t think it’s weird to expect people to have some basic enchants and gems in a heroic raid. Like Jaina pointed out tho, the game doesn’t point it out to you so I could imagine newer players being blissfully unaware. I completely forgot about the existence of gems and enchants with the profession overhaul for a while myself lol, but then again, I don’t do content where you’d expect it.

Doesn’t stop me tho, most of my characters have some basic stuff. Not saying no to an easy boost, even if it’s small.

I agree, and as OP said, the rank 1 enchants are very very cheap, apart from some special ones, but its fine if one is skipped.

An anecdotal update - joined a Fyrakk HC grp - a 483 ilvl hunter - missing 3 enchants - I confront him - he says “speed is useless”. I tell him - then get leech or avoidance - these are always useful. “nah crap stats”

Meanwhile mythic raiders are paying millions for BoEs with tertiary xD but he can’t slap 50 gold enchants on 3 items

SMH

PS: He proceeds to die in dream rend, not fast enough to move. Dunno if speed enchant would save him but eh, ironic isn’t it?

because they are poor new gamers who doesn’t know what that is.

rule 1 don’t play with them
rule 2 leave group find some other group
rule 3 tell them before leaving that they should look up a guide how to play end game.

Maybe his thoughts were distracted because some weird rando started giving them the inquisition on stats that would have made may 0,2% difference to their performance.
