I’ve seen several YouTubers and streamers state concerns over the proposed new armor because people will “skip content” and go straight to raids to obtain it. Can someone tell me if I’m just crazy or this is an absurd concern to have. We are talking about raids right? The thing that the majority of the player base doesn’t even engage with? I assume is the concern is for Ironman progression since mains can technically skip to whatever gear they want if they are set on it. I’ve heard people say “players are gonna skip blue moon, they are gonna skip Yama” and whatever else. How the fuck are iron men gonna do the supposedly hardest raid skipping all of that gear? Also drop rates for things like oath plate and blue moon are pretty damn generous. legitimately what portion of the player base going to choose to “skip” a grind that’s a few dozen hours for one that is probably hundreds and also way harder content. If people are concerned about that stats that’s one thing and is more reasonable, personally I think the stats are fine for something that is coming from a raid and is technically not BiS for anything. Im willing to admit I just might not know the game deeply enough to judge the armor sats, but I honestly just don’t understand the content skipping argument. What do y’all think am I way off on this? submitted by /u/umbassa
