Dear Blizzard Support Team,
I hope this message finds you well.
I am writing to inquire about the possibility of implementing a catch-up system for raid reputation. Due to personal circumstances, I was unable to consistently participate in the current raid tier from the beginning and have unfortunately fallen behind. At the moment, I am stuck at Renown 12.
As a DPS player, this puts me at a significant disadvantage, as I currently only benefit from the 9% damage increase buff. Meanwhile, others who have been raiding consistently since the start are enjoying the full 15%, resulting in a 6% disparity that heavily impacts performance, especially in high-end content.
I raid weekly and am doing my best to close the gap, but the current system does not seem to offer a viable way to catch up on missed renown. This creates a compounding issue for players who returned to the game later in the tier or who had to step away for legitimate reasons.
For context, I am currently raiding with one of the top 20 guilds worldwide. In such a competitive environment, even a small difference in buffs can have a substantial impact.
Given the situation, I would like to kindly ask if the team would consider introducing a system to help players catch up on missed raid reputation, whether through increased renown gains, alternative sources, or temporary buffs for returning players.
Thank you very much for your time and consideration. I truly appreciate the work you do and hope to hear from you soon.
Warm regards,
Vib
