Wait, no it's not. It's a great idea! This means we casuals can continue to improve our characters, albeit at a slower rate than the raiding community. It rewards time invested: there was never any reason to gate the best equipment behind raiding, since all it was going to be used for was more raiding. That's wasteful! Hardcore raiders will still get the titles, the mounts, the prestige, and that nice warm glowing feeling that comes from knowing that you're better than the rest of us. But the rest of us will get something to work towards, and that's nice. And who knows, maybe people who wouldn't have given raiding a shot before out of nervousness will be emboldened enough to give it a shot and help grow that section of the community. Either way, this is good for the game, right?
