Why do people still list curve as a requirement?

Are they really too dumb to realize that curve has lost all its value since so many buy a curve boost? It makes much more sense to require 9/10 minimum with multiple kills than killing one boss one time.

Because 9/10 LFG groups is the leader looking for a carry or some dummy trying to sell curve by pugging the group in LFG.

Almost everyone who got curve the real way has at least 9/10. People need to drop their obsession with curve, it’s worthless now and means nothing. Look at boss kills instead.

That’s what I’m saying, anyone who uses curve as their only metric is a meme group.

Or… maybe 10/10 players with multiple kills perhaps exist too? If you can’t spot a boosted player you don’t deserve to lead a successful raid group anyway.

You can check someones logs if you’re willing to go the extra mile. Most people have at least some on normal or heroic. If they don’t then that’s also a red flag. Someone with just grey/green parses probably isn’t worth taking into your group.

I thought this would be “a positive” thread, pointing out the stupidity of high requirements for simple activities. I was wrong.

Compared to other games (cough FF) wow archaic raid design makes most raids inaccessible to the casual player.

No scaling(mythic raid)
No replayability after expansion over
No loot /cosmetic rewards (nerf of mounts %)

Why not make lower gear level characters attractive for a raid group? Make It scale down in difficulty in a way that benefits the raid and allows the new player to experience end game.

Toxic design is stuff like this this, not sylvanas witch dialogue or /spit emote.

Simply put, lower gear characters are lower geared because they havent progressed in the available content, so it is highly unlikely people playing them have experience necessary to meaningfully contribute.

If the characters in question are alts of experienced players, they already can ger carried by guildmates/ friends who know what to expect out of the undergeared one. In pug world theres really no rationale in inviting people who you cant tell can carry their weight.

LFR.

It gets even better if you consider LFR has a lot of QoL qualities like being able to be teleported in or clear a wing instead of having to do with entire corridors of trash between bosses.

thats simply not true. not many buy boosts when they go for 300k.

at this point in time curve means a lot.

and its a good way to weed out bad players .

you can always complete raid in lfr.

you dont need to complete it on hc.

I quite like LFR, but why do we need to wait 2 months into the tier for being able to do the whole raid?

180k and yes they do

i have guildies that could book themselves full workdays of curve boosts early on in a tier because the buyers never end
