I buy boosts , why ? Because i want to play the game but the community makes it soo damn hard for me to group up with any of you. That is the simple reason.
You guys are so picky , you want the best geared , most experienced players. You want 220 ilvl for + 7
You won’t invite for normal raids unless i got curve.
It’s so stupid , so i’m paying to play the content with gold. Just so i can join you guys , i buy tokens to buy the boes.
Boosters aren’t the problem . i’m not the problem YOU GUYS are the problem.
I’m tired of everyone pointing at the leaves and not at the roots why boosting is so common. I don’t have time to raid twice a week , i don’t have time on the weekend to push my keys all day and night. I want to play the game i want to play on alts.
But you your so damn picky I have no alternative but to buys boosts or quit.
There said my peace , i would love to join groups and play the damn game. But you’ve all put up roadblocks and walls from that from happening.
Those who buy boosts please speak up because i’ve spoken to 100 + who have said exactly the same. I think it’s time our voice is heard. Want to cry about boosters on trade ? How about you look at yourselves first.
This new rio blizz implemented system means , more people are going to buy boosts. So GG community.
There’s going to be a skip for Sylvanas on mythic , trust me you are going to see Vengeance’s reins everywhere by the end of the expansion.
Yeah, unfortunately this is a big issue. Community is way too toxic and demanding.
I got 2 friends of mine start playing WoW, one loved the arena, other loved the raids. But he had difficulty joining even NM raids as he had absolutely no achivements or logs whatsoever. PvP wise it was worse, my fella couldn’t find anyone to play arena with.
They left in 2 months.
But their experience just showed me it is expected that there would be a big demand for boosting. It’s not like people that advertised boosting created the demand, the demand was there. In fact, it’s the demand that created the supply.
Alright, you go make your own key for example a 7+ and then there is a 220ilvl and 205ilvl who would you get?
Why can’t you make your own group and run your key? Although I was absolutely fine doing my KSM with my friends, you don’t need to be high ilvl if everyone knows what they are doing.
ever considered, IT IS because of so many boosted people that the standards increased so much?
When so many people have curve, then the standards go higher.
You buy boost and gear up, and now the gear requirement goes higher for contents, because there are quite a significant number of boosted people out there.
It’s not your fault for being boosted. You’re just one of many who does that.
But the system is fundamentally toublesome for the game and needs changes.
Every week in shadowlands the ilvl jumps per week was insane.
I had take 3 weeks break over christmas time , before i did 190 was seen as good ilvl when i got back 210 was the norm.
Then just decline , decline decline …solution ?
Buy 4-5 tokens with irl cash , buy up the mythic boes. Buy 14 key , buy arena boosts. That wasn’t even my thinking , that what the trade chat were telling me to do.
That’s what the guild told me to do.
It’s not " hey come play with us , just go buy boosts and boes bro , don’t be slacking"
The dps jump from 190-210 is massive and i mean massive.
Ah, it was added in Shadowlands, you can become a guide and help new players and you gain access to Newcomer Chat, where new players ask questions and guides help them!
It’s sometimes really nice and wholesome but for example last night there was a new player calling everyone rats and curse words.
And if boosting wasn’t a thing, Not only the progression of all players would have been much slower (not full gear in 3 weeks for everyone), but also, your guild would have had to help you with gearing.
Boosting destroyed the social aspect of the game too.
Why cooperate with others? Form friends? Just buy boost and you’re done
Sounds like your guild aren’t worth hanging with if that’s their attitude.
I run in a community and I’ve been welcome in keys 10-15 since being just shy of 200 I level. Sometimes we time, sometimes we don’t. But we rather spend time playing the game, getting loot and rating as opposed to afk in oribos digging through groups.
Never used Rio but with the rating I see now the inflation issue, got guys with 700 total score and 66 for dungeon in question demanding 1500 score and at least a 150 dungeon score.
Requirements not reduced, increased actually as you need 2000 score for ksm.
However they have added lots of breakpoints for gear upgrades in m+ so there’s less need for big jumps to get gear upgrades, which makes the need to boost a bit less IMO. Now KSM only makes a difference of 3 or 6 I level I think, you can get high gear from valour by getting 1700 as well.
It’s something like upgrade to 220 with no rating, then required 1100, 1400, 1700 and 2000. With the ilevel jumps being something like 226, 233, 239 and then 246 or similar.
