***World of Warcraft : Legion***

That took me soooo long to complete, I've now decided to re-roll holy priest, it's just fun to get instant queue pops rather than waiting for hours and hours for a dps slot to become available.

Blooming long grind ahead of me though, 0/11 in suramar (sp)
 
Turn down draw distance and environment detail......makes 0 difference to IQ and sorts out the FPS......not sure why that tanks FPS as it doesn't really test my system at all from a resource point of view..


Because it is CPU rendered it has no real effect on GPU look the GPU usage 70% here or less even at 1080p 8x MFAA.... going from 980 to 1080 no difference really some places i went from 60fps to 75fps but i needed 120 for 120hz. So you can do stupid things like slap on all the IQ, Bump resolution up to increase usage but for me my fps has a min of 60 maxed and wont go below or above 60fps which is now 75fps in some parts thanks to my 1080 haha.

View Distance to 7 or so seems to fix it 5 causes a visual loss of some things in the close distance but 6-7 seems perfect for a large fps increase.
 
About 1/3rd of my gear is from WQ's / got upgraded.
850 legs from WQ, 860 neck, lots of 835 stuff.

First decent trinket of Legion yesterday too.
Shard of Rokmora
Also first Mythic+ instances. DHT + NL, both +2.

Met timer on DHT, got 2 chests in LH. That's including putting parrot to bed mid-way through NL! :D

Not much harder than normal Mythics. Expect +5 to be a jump due to the newer mechanics.


I'm 839 and mostly bar 1 item all from world quests, stuck of 839 and not been able to get anything higher. Done 3 world bosses and all my friends got drops (mainly back pieces) and I got nowt. Also done all normal dungeons and heroic and one mythic and still nowt. Frustrated...

Nice trinket BTW would go nice with my WW Monk.
 
First Mythic+ chest, 850 leggings - I already had 850 leggings...
But perfect secondary stats :D Vers/Mast
So swapped them over, the other legs will do if I'm healing / DPSing.

Need to do Court of Stars / Arcway at the weekend, get those quests completed.
Also have about 4 mythic quests from the class hall orders... Found one in M+ and of course you can't do quests in M+... Only Mythic. D'oh.

at 839 you need to start doing more mythics, shouldn't be relying on heroics/world quests for gear now.
 
iLvl 805 now. The gear being dropped by World-Quests has improved dramatically. Get lucky every now and again with the random upgrades.

Anyone else of the opinion that Tailoring isn't really worth the effort? The gear provided is so poor compared to what is dropping from the WQ's at the moment. Didn't really bother with it much in Draenor either...
 
I'm so fed up of getting rubbish Mythic+ groups, don't join them if you've never done the instance before *grumble*.

Sucks trying to find groups as a Fury warrior, they just don't offer much.
 
I'm ilvl 835 I've tried to join 27 mythic groups and every single one has declined my attempt to join lol how the hell are you meant to gear up if no-ones gonna give you a chance! All people want are ilvl 850 people to boost them :/
 
For those of you struggling to get into a Mythic group, just make your own. Even better if you can go tank or healer.

835 is plenty to do Mythics and I guarantee you will get others joining your group who are in the same position.

What server/faction?
 
It's gearscore all over again. Make your own groups. I tanked mythics in 808 gear so 835 it's more than fine.
I have yet to do any however everyone in my guild started them at 800ilvl.

The issue now is people doing mythics+. Start your own group and wing it is best.
 
Mythics were not much harder than heroics. Healed them in off-spec at 820.
Mythic +2 seems doable with 2/3 chests at 845~850.
We wiped on a boss (was clearing trash and boss aggro'd) and still got 2 chests.

Not done any above that.

Nearly 2nd gold trait in Tank weap :D Would have been already but spent 1 point in a different route >.>
Then only 4 points until "all decent" ones taken.
 
I started Mythics at 820 (Hunter) and was pulling 200k DPS. No problem. Our tanks started at 820 ish too.
The problem with ilvl being so prominent is that it doesn't account for player skill whatsoever. I've out DPSed people in 860 gear when I was 820 and I've seen tanks in 850 gear go splat because they didn't know how to use active mitigation properly. I was in a pug group who seemed to want to take ALL OF THE DAMAGE at Odyn. Our healer was crying.

We're doing OK on the raids so far. We're 5/7 HC and will probably be 6/7 tonight if Cenarius plays ball.
 
The massive problem with gear score is that an Item that is 30 Ilvls higher than your current item could actually be a dps\survivability loss overall due to the stats. There are even instances of people banking low lvl healer\Dps artifact weapons to boost their offspec GS using the wrong artifact weapon as it has a higher GS (Preach released a video about GS\Ilvl and is the item any good yesterday that is worth a watch)

I am currently around 845 GS and am more than capable of doing Mythic + (did Mythic 5+ Neltharion with only one brown trouser moment last night) but we do it in a premade of 4 people (tank (me) healer and 2 dps) then pug the 3rd dps.
 
Well, I use an 835 trinket for tanking in Raids as it has over 800 vers.
I use the 850 trinket for Mythics as the on-use is great for trash packs.

So even between items, correctly itemised > 5 or 10 ilvl's. (Or 15 in the case of trinkets)
For SOME classes. Some classes their primary stat IS actually the best.
