So I boosted a warrior character because I wanted to tank the dungeons and I cannot because the tank is undergeared and everyone wants sunwell level gear for normal dungeons. A little bit of screw up dont You think?
Working as intended.
You paid blizzard to boost a tank, now you need to boost another character to be able to make gold so that you can buy welfare gear for your tank, so that you can do sunwell dungeons and get geared in order to do regular dungeons.
Did we mention the 6 month subscription comes with a fancy mount?
Great Community isnt it?
There is an early tanking set you can get via blacksmithing (Cobalt Set) Plate that should be more then fine for normal dungeons. All pieces are lvl 70 btw and all of them only require a varying amount of Cobalt Bars, so it might even already be available on the Auction House.
(Item Lvl is 142 for all pieces), Sunwell gear is Item Lvl 154-164. Depending on the pieces and yes while they are better especially due to set bonuses and gem slots the Cobalt set should do fine.
Ofcourse people that played a lot of TBC and farmed sunwell gear are going to want people in said gear to make the dungeons go quicker, but yeah shouldnt be to hard depending on server though to find people that are willing to take you in full cobalt set.
They’re just trolling you because they saw that you’re boosted.
going sunwell day 1… ye…
Get used to it, it is common for players filling out dungeon groups to require other players in their group to have an item level higher than the gear that drops from that dungeon.
You are a tank, just find another group or form your own.
It’s almost like this is all the faulth off the RDF!
Oh wait… That’s not it…
What else can we blame?
The lack of sociallity!
Oh wait… I thought it was in the game cuz no RDF?
Hmmm…
Nothing to do with RDF just a toxic server. Im on a very high pop alliance server and nobody gives a damn about gear. We invite anyone and clear everything no trouble.
Nothing off the problems in the game have to do with RDF.
But the discussions usually end up into an RDF issue, so I just beat them to it .
Fresh servers are toxic, always are, always will be.
They are littarly made for Elitists…
The booster gear is not great. Just get some Wrath quest items first from starter Q’s, do a few BG for some season 3 or 4 gear and no one will complain any longer.
Use the gold you got from the boost to buy some gear you haven’t updated yet, you’ll earn it back in no time. Try to do dungeons as dps first. You should be geared within a few days.
How about finding boosted healer and 3 dps like yourself? Or just tell every Sunwell dps to wait for their Sunwell tank (that are leveling with their guilds anyway) or tone down their AoE appetites and watch the threat meter instead of dps meter.
RDF would fix all the problems. But we rather have a gigantic mega realm where no1 knows eachother anyway and rather spams in /4 because thats so more social.
No I rather start introducing myself to other players who will find me as reliable and seasoned player during dungeon runs. We may add each other to our contact lists and only then socials interaction start happening. Your RDF solves nothing exept alienating players forcing Blizzard to release easier content. How will you complete heroic+ with bunch of randoms who are toxic and, do not know how to behave themselves, not mentioning of how to play their class?
I’m sorry but how is this any different from how people currently behave?
You literally just listed the behavior of players currently. Right at this very moment. Without RDF.
The reality is completly opposite. No one talks to eachother in the dungeon runs anymore, atleast on Golemagg.
Actually my last experience in Wailing Caverns on Thekal was a toxic group leader that kicked some1 for saying he shouldnt roll on leather.
Classic is proving for literally 2 expansions again why social interactivity has nothing to do with RDF. If people dont want to socialize, they wont. You can socialize just as much on retail in a mythic + and make friends as you can do on WotLK.
A little bit of screw up dont You think?
Yeah, buying boost is really screwed up. We instakick all boosters from our party. Too bad /spit doesn’t work anymore.
Stop being so lazy and do 5 quests. 5 quests is all you need to get fully wotlk-green geared which is almost equivalent to t6 already, which is way way way more than needed to tank these dungeons.
Bro, you can do the dungeon in green / gray gear no problem.
Just make the group.
If you are the tank, making groups should be a breeze
Can You please post the names of any combination of 5 quests which will award 17 items (as You said fully wotlk-green geared)? Also, by “almost equivalnet to t6” You surely meant at least t5 equivalent, so please show me such quest rewards (dungeon quests excluded, as this is the core of the problem) in starting areas, as we are talking about a boosted level 70 character.
Edit for typos.
