I'm a mid-core player. I choose to not play end game. (What's the incentive?)

I've always been confused by this design choice by the devs. They want to make this game accessible to the mid-cores, and yet... the vertical cap itself is anti-mid core player. It's a pro-hard core system, because the only players who can ever be able to play the end game will be those who never stop playing... The rest of us, who do come and go, will always come back to see what little best gear we could work for, become 5 cents on the dollar. So why work for it at all?

The gear system is designed in a way that its actually quite friendly to players that take breaks from the game I had recently went back to to an alt I had at i170 gear I hadn't touch since HW came out and was able to get it to i235 in a couple of weeks,

Honestly if you dont have any desire to challenge yourself on relevant content then gear is meaningless regardless of the system they have in place,

Anyways a horizontal progression system favors hardcore players much more and leaves more casual players in the dust.
