For BG, arguably one of the best progression FCs in the world, it took them 16 days to have one shot at RNG to get one person a weapon. Think about that. Lockout is being removed in a few weeks, but realistically that makes pretty much everything moot because having a better weapon doesn't make you not play like crap.Point is, a single person outside of the hardest dungeon in the game is able to progress faster than raiders ever were completing the most difficult content in the game. That doesn't make any sense. It gives people so little incentive to even want to raid at this point because it's like , wow, we worked really hard to beat all this content so that we could be max ilvl for the next turn that is 6 months from now, (Mind you, we've been clearing for MONTHS, and not everyone in our group is BiS yet) , and now they give everyone and their mom better weapons than us and full i110 gear in hunts, it just completely devalued all of our work the past 6 months, and yeah, raiders are a small minority of the community, but to be honest, if they keep this up, the raid scene will just die. TBH Progression around 2.0-2.1 was at a much better pace than whatever it is right now, right now it's really really stupid.
