    It's been a while since I've played WoW, and I've never been in a static because I hate the idea of being forced into a group I don't like during times I could be doing other things just so one of my characters can be a little stronger for a bit before all that work is invalidated. But from what I remember about WoW, you were doing LFR for your gear. Which was the highest end content below real raiding. And that was fine for me. Do that once a week, maybe get some gear, go back to advancing my character in other ways. Or leveling new characters. Or playing other games, or learning a real world skill, or whatever else you want to do with your time. Point is, you weren't doing content just so you could keep up with gear. You did the highest level stuff to get the highest level gear. And that was great! That's how this should be working. I should be good to go with 220 gear.
    But nope. Next patch something is going to be released and my 220 gear won't be good enough. I'll have to do some new raid and grind that on all my classes just so I can use them for the next stuff. It's overwhelming and not fun.

    Because anything harder than a dungeon roulette and 90% of the playerbase won't see it.
    Dungeons give dungeon level gear. Raids give raid level gear. Content gives gear appropriate for the difficulty of obtaining it. Offer a smooth difficulty curve between casual and hardcore content.
    It's not rocket surgery.

    ....lol.

    Anyway, this is a casual game. I'm fine with whatever since I do do the hardest raids, but SE wants the majority of their playerbase to have goals to aim for without having to do those. It is what it is.

    You know, most of the content released so far can be cleared with ilvl 210-220 if you are good enough. 220 is Midas. Normal Midas is just like LFR in WoW, only better. There is no way you will get locked out without getting a viable piece. If you match that with an occasional lore piece (I end up capping lore whatever I do over the entire week, it is really not a grind, and I am not home till like 7pm every day), you are more than good to go for the current patch as well as the next patch's content (dungeons, normal raids etc). So since you are not doing savage (ppl do savage for achs too, not only gear!), and dislike the thought of statics for the same reasons I do, what is your problem? By the time next patch hits you can be full lore without an effort. There is beast tribes, an occasional dungeon, maybe help out a friend, feast etc. And of course they will make it so that you can obtain higher ilvl gear next patch (upgraded lore). It's called PROGRESSION. And in this game the progression is significantly faster. Sorry you got used to WoW's snail pace of releasing (shitty) content. But you cannot expect to get the 'best' or the 'most viable' gear without playing the game. They specifically made it so that even casuals can, given time, obtain the highest ilvl available.
