i am so glad i dont play this hot mess anymorebring on classic
For most player they don't really dive into AP grind. They do their 3 island a weak, few emissary and that's all. They all ended up 50 by now.But there is still some goal to reach in order to be competitive especially when you are doing mythic progression.Being 55 at least for the Azshara progression is mandatory and it will probably not take us more than 3 weeks to reach her, so we have 6 weeks to reach this level, meaning we have to do 1 level a week, with AK coming in (we hope) it will be 85k ap per week. It is easily doable without having to dive in a Island farm, but it needs you to actually do all your world quest, at least.If now we want to take a crucial advantage during progression, we'd might want to reach 55 at week 5 (or 4) and there you are, brainless AP grinding doing Island expedition multiple hours a day.
I looks like they are time gating the necklace really. They don't want maxed out necks and essences in the first month. Look at the huge decrease to 50 and just about every emissary quest giving az power. They pretty much handed you a level 50 neck on a platter. Now they are slowing it down again. I'll bet money that they decrease the amount needed as time goes by.
So if I'm not 50 yet I will get f****d when the patch hits? Right? Is there any way to power farm from 46 to 50 to avoid the 35K ap spike that will hit me when the patch goes live?
Septermber 10 - Here I come!
Seems like a change to just push the cap higher and higher - I'll continue to do what I've done since Legion, not worry about it and just play the game. When I hit another level I'll do what I do now "Oh, ok, that's nice".
Good post, I will do what I did in 8.0 and 8.1 and not grind AP until the multiplier is very high. I don't find value in early grinding, and thankfully there are other things to do.
If you feel like grinding AP is a job then you're either a mythic raider racing for world first or, to put it simply, you're addicted.
