With ZG out and P4 content therefore pretty much fully released I was wondering, when the WSG exalted legs will be released into the game - since atm the grind would’ve still been well worth it, especially for warriors the legs would be probably the 2nd best item for that slot atm only bested by the rank 12 pants.
Coming p5 the wsg legs will become pretty much irrelevant and the grind for WSG exalted wouldn’t have been well worth it.
So I was wondering if there are any plans to get the WSG legs into the game before the release of p5. (I know atlasloot says p6 and it was released in 1.12 back in the days but since there are some itemizationchanges being done already throughout the game it would be logical imo to release them earlier.)
Not at all - they have been wrong whereever they could, pretty much. Ofc they have been right that BWL would be p3 and ZG would be p4. Noone would’ve gotten those things wrong. But for example the shared bossloot items in ZG were displayed as p6 but are ingame already (there are more occassions like that). Those are the itemization changes that I mentioned in my post and why I think that the legs should be ingame earlier than p5/p6.
Releasing anything few weeks before the game is over doesn’t make much sense. We have the updated rank gear and the updated ZG gear, so I believe it would be reasonable to have the “updated” rep gear.
They wouldnt be BiS if released today. Rank 12 is already better, rank 8 is better if its used to get the 2-set bonus. And for nonraiders there will be the easily accessible titanic leggings in p5 which are just straightup better in almost every regard (except stamina ofc).
[In addition to that p5 adds the Legplates of the Qiraji Command, scaled sand reaver leggings and most importantly t2.5 and finally p6 gives us legplates of carnage.]
my point is: they are a sidegrade already - and will be a downgrade to craftables in terms of dps in the next phase so why not release them today - given that we have seen items like scrificial gauntlets release way ahead of their actualy releasetime back in vanilla.
@zalanji that would be an argument for releasing them earlier though? Since ferals arent a gamebreaking class in any way and buffing them wouldnt endanger the “difficulty of the PVE content”. While you should actually be careful what to give to furys since they are already the strongest dps class and buffing them might result in even more asymetrical raidrosters.
