Make fast Feast ranked rewards available in Feast Normal Farming rewards

The only thing I would support would be allowing previous rewards be purchasable with the voucher for top100 rankings. Each new reward would just get put into the pool of rewards when the season is over and players could choose which one they want to get. This would prevent that some mounts and outfits will be lost over the years.

You don't need practice for ranked, the majority jumps just in anyway why should you bother. I think you overestimate the time you need for a good ranking, if you tryhard 1 day with the role that gets fastest pops you could get 1k points, now matches even take 2min less than before so it should be even more. So with 2 pvp days you could be in top100 for the rest of the season. Time is not an real issue.
If you really want it easy I would just play in the next (8.) season, the rewards will most likely be the same again, just reskins, not many are motivated to get it again once they have it.

Here we go with these request again.

No

It wouldn’t be much of a contest if everybody got their hands on the same grand prize...

However, I work full time so I really don't have time to farm PvP exclusively to get anywhere near the high ranking and when I do play the queues are pretty slow.

You'll find most of us are also in full-time work or education. This excuse is so old. Three days I didn't even play this week because I was so tired I did one PvE roulette then went straight to bed - if you actually watch the ladder in the season, you'll find not everyone in the top 100 plays daily.

I'd like to get tons of practice in before jumping into ranked (as I don't wanna let the team down) but it's hard sometimes when I can only play certain evenings (aside from raid).

You've had an entire preseason to do this; a pre-season where I actually whined about the length because it has gone on for like a month+. Preseason ranked is pretty much practice anyway barely anyone actually played their main role for the whole thing, and there were plenty of names that I have never seen before (hence why practice queues are dead).

On that note, no. The incentive to play ranked right now is already really bad, for example I didn't want to play enough to reach top 100 back in HW because I was pushing for R1 in WoW instead; so all that was left to play for were tier titles I already owned and jewellery I already had; they've only just made it worth my while to play every season; even if I don't commit. Why make it any worse just to appease you? That is selfish.

Let me buy them with wolf marks. At least that way I can work TOWARD a goal -- even if I have to wait and work toward my prize little by little, I know that eventually my efforts will pay off.

I also agree with this. I work 8:30 to 5:30 on weekdays and pull overtime two out of those 5 days, sometimes also working on saturdays.

Full time is not an excuse if I can hit top 100 with only a ranged class which, we all know, has literally the worst queue times out of all the classes.

Again, not much of a contest if everyone gets their hand on the same prize that participated.

Considering how few people bother to show up for Ranked Feast in the first place, calling it "much" of a contest is a stretch either way.

It's a slice of a contest. And that's also why it's quite compatible with full-time jobs - the more hardcore people aren't competing in the first place. When people hear of top 100, they think:"Top 100 in like 80k people on my data center, how on earth should I be able to compete with the most hardcore 1-2%?", when in reality, top 100 is probably more like the top 10-20% of the competing population or something and that population isn't recruited from the most hardcore either. So people's fears tend to be far overblown.

Personally, I don't consider the rewards worth putting up with Feast. Maybe if SE were to pay me 20$ an hour, I would. But even then, there are jobs that are more enjoyable and can pay the same >_>

Just play the season and actually try and attempt to get top 100 and you'll get your mount

You don't deserve the reward or a alternative to the reward if you didn't work and earn for it. So you shouldn't come to the forums and request or ask for a alternative for something you not going to put effort into obtaining.

@OP There are plenty of people who have full time jobs and are able to get top 100. Maybe you should think of it this way. Top 100 isn't a time investment, it is a skill investment and reflects how good you are in the game.

Hopefully that was enlightening to you. Top 100 rewards were meant to be exclusive for those who deserved/earned it and they will stay that way.
