My sub is expiring just before 6.4 and nonsense like this is one of the reasons why. BiS is nice to have, but up to 2 months after clearing the current raid tier in a game where you aren't even allowed to see your performance or damage for a weapon only +5ilv over tome? Absolutely not.

If you got your weapon faster, you'd simply start going for BiS again with an alt. Nice variety with a small end goal.

Precisely.

So why the heck is it on such a lofty pedestal?

(But let's be honest, we all know the real reason. People farm BiS for fflogs. Chasing logs isn't to show off either, no one else cares, but more of a goal for personal accomplishment and something to keep content that is otherwise completely pointless worth running long term. SE just can't acknowledge it. Silly grinds for gear isn't keeping raiders logged for Savage long term. Logs and "evil" third party is.)
