You know, people do the new raid because they want to acquire the new Tier, removing pieces completely and adding them to the “new” world boss is pathetic excuse to force people do the new world boss.
The world boss drops only 2 belts. Good luck seeing your belt and winning it on top of everyone wanting it unless you make group and you HR it, aka promoting that HR bs.
It would make more sense to remove the bracers since u can just dungeon spam 2 or 3 days max and buy them, from the raid, rather than the belt.
Or make the new world boss more like onyxia, to drop any tier 2 piece with way more loot drops added to Thunderaan’s loot table.
Last but not least, worse case scenario make the belt buyable aswell for 150 coins (max coins).
Because as it stands now, if your rng is horrible, you may never get t2 belt since the boss gives literally scraps on loot.
