I am casual too btw. so this is no casual shaming but seriously there is no need for a casual player to have gear equivalent to savage raid gear anyways. You can get easily 630 gear for example which is close to the savage gear itemlevel and for what do you even need it anyways? To better perform in braindead low level dungeons? Your gear won't matter anyways when the next patch hits so there is literally no reason for you to progress beyond what we have now for casuals anyways.

There are so many ways to get gear, we don't need even more or easier ways.
This is an awful take. What's the purpose of gatekeeping savage equivalent gear after 6 months of the savage tier being released? None. Rubicante should have dropped BIS weapon already, or at least a 630 weapon. And the Hildibrand relic second stage should have been 635. It's fine and fair for savage raiders to have exclusivity in the first months when it comes to gearing etc. But 6 or 7 months later? No, everyone should be able to reach BIS after all those months. You would have people reaching the same gear level as a raider, but that would only last for two or three months, as the next raid tier would come out and raiders would have the advantage again. I know a lot of savage and ultimate players that are chill about gearing, even major streamers like Xeno. But there is always people like you on your high heels that look down at non savage / ultimate players with your complex of superiority, as if we didn't deserve the ILVL you have only because we didn't want or didn't had the time to pull a boss 200 to 1000 times to clear a fight.
