Raid Loot System

hello, I just hit level 60 a few days ago and I am confused about how the raid loot system works. after clearing the raid 1 time I stopped getting loot from it, after checking I found out that you can only get loot from the same raid only once a week. then how i am supposed to grind this raid to get the best gear, the rng is crazy and I can’t even grind it without cooldown?

Yeah, RNG sucks bad when you’re trying to gear up in a horry - and anyone coming in now is hitting that wall.

In one sense, I want to say: don’t bother; it’ll all be irrelevant in 4 weeks, when pre-patch gear arrives.

But I also understand that you want to play, and get on with things.

The only practical alternative is Mythic-Plus dungeons. Are you playng Tank? I see you’re specced Vengeance.

I’m not sure how prepared you are to tank M+, but low M+ (+2 to +5) could be something you could get into fairly quickly, and get gear up to 272 for a +5, and a higher piece from the Vault at the end of the week. See

You can grind them endlesly, with a chance for loot from every one.

However, if the party fails, the key depletes. It’s not nice to do that to a keyholder, so if you’re tanking, do try to make sure you don’t screw up someone else’s key.

Ideally, start a group in Group Finder for a straight Mythic (Mythic-Zero), do the dungeon, and you can then get your own key and use it to climb the ladder.

Does this make sense to you? If you are completely new, you may need more background. Don’t be hesitant to ask!

hi, yes i do play tank and i played about for 2 months, i have pretty easy time/a bit hard in raid how harder it will he in mythic+2 then raid? i got about 80k hp and 110k in meta mode this is my stats:
item lvl:235
agil:1.35k
stamina:4k
armor1.3k
crit:23%
hase:29%
mastery:40%
vers:10%
dodge:14%
parry11%

When it comes to M+, the problem will not so much be your stats. You will have two problems:

  1. Knowing the dungeon, the routes, what you have to kill and what you can skip, what mechanics you really NEED to deal with and
  2. Keeping a not-very-well coordinated party together. :stuck_out_tongue:

If you check out YouTube, you will find guides for each M+ dungeon.

This is a general guide to the M+ system. It is out of date for this season, but does explain the basic ideas: https://www.wowhead.com/mythic-keystones-and-dungeons-guide

Here are a couple of videos to start you off:

thanks! any recommended addons for mythic dungeon? i heard there is few that tell you on the screen when to run away etc from boss attacks

Yeah.

Ugh. I swear, you could do a whole postgrad degree in this stuff. :person_shrugging:

You will need either Deadly Boss Mods(DBM) or BigWigs/LittleWigs. They do much the same job of calling out boss abilities.

You will want WeakAuras at some point. WeakAuras does nothing by itself, buy you load up modules from the site wago.io for specific purposes, or roll your own.

Mythic Dungeon Tools lets you load, see, and share routes.

Angry Keystones shows your timer and % complete, and other stuff.

You will probably want to create party frames that suit you.

Nameplate addons, Interrupts, Damage Meters - take your pick.

There are many variations of addons for all these functions.

Raider.io, to see your own and other people’s scores.

Look at this guy’s screen as he walks though a run, and see how much info he is getting from the addons in his UI.
