My question is about the insane gear grind. Looking through my roster, I have found that by far, the biggest limiting factor is Rancor (The Pit) level gear drops. I have a very mature roster with around 20 gear 12 characters. The fact is that when a player decides to move a character from g11 to g12, it can take a month or more (depending on raid drops) to get there.
With that in mind, players like myself, that have played for over 2 years (every. Single. Day.), are bottlenecked by literally thousands of pieces of this older content gear.
Is there any plans to offer relief from this monotonous gear grind? I understand it’s about utilizing my resources, but after 2 years and several raids later, I’m still needing Rancor gear just to get my characters in position for the long haul to gear 11 and gear 12.
For newer players, this must come as a total shock and deterrence. Other games add gear drops that bring characters nearer to the current gear level/requirements.
