    What? You don't want RNG in your RNG? Then you'd better stay out of Destiny and Warframe... ^^ WoW isn't nearly as bad.

    I have one.

    Try to be excellent to everyone you meet. You never know what someone else has seen or endured.

    Craftable legendaries are coming in 7.2 so its whatever. This whole system is stupid though. Making legendaries this way just devalues the gearing system as a whole even more so than it did before. And someone tell me what the point was of the quest getting your legendary from 910 to 940 when they scaled all legendaries from 890(I think it was?) to 910 across the board....Absolutely no point, especially since all legendaries that drop now are 940. The direction of this game honestly doesn't have any....Just throwing stuff at a wall and see what sticks.

    And even if something finally sticks, they can't help but scrape it off again with the next big patch.

    Blizzard's notorious, uncontrollable tinkering with everything reminds me on the behaviour of a meth addicted person that in a hurried, impulsive action takes apart his perfectly working TV at 3am, because from his POV this is the best and most reasonable thing to do in this moment.

    He is then totally satisfied with his achivement and can't wait to show the result to his friends who in his assumption will applaud and totally agree to what he did. But first he has to go to sleep for 5 days and not respond to anything.

    Coming clear again, he realizes that "fixing" a problem that wasn't there in first place has caused a problem that now needs fixing.
    Fixing this real problem is but too much of an exhausting effort, there is never the right time to do it, priorities, blablabla....so the whole idea of fixing falls more and more behind and finally gets scrapped because in 6 month he might have another TV in place anyway.

    They have been doing that for years and it got them to lose about 10mio players.

    I have 1 legendary on 2 of my characters and 0 on my 3rd and I play non-stop so perhaps I'm just unlucky <('.'<)

    it sounds like you are.  I have noticed with the 6 toons I play on, a lot, that some of them are very lucky and some are not so much.

    They lost me and a ton of others trying to pretend all legendaries are the same. BS like "be thank full you got one" and crap like that. When one guy tops the leaders boards and the other doesn't get a raid spot all due to what RNG handed you.

    I remember when legendaries were legendary.

    Have only been doing World Quests for reputations and emissary. The occasional dungeon for World Quest stuff. Though still no legendary after all this time. Though I don't really need it. It just feels like one of those "must have" features with so much emphasis and value put on it by the dev team and playerbase. Had the capacity to wear two for months and months. xD

    Quitting again for sure when I have part one of flying done -- still have some minor things I haven't tackled. The RNG in this expansion is too much for me.
    Due to frequent travel in my youth, English isn't something I consider my primary language (and thus I obtained quirky ways of writing).  German and French were always easier for me despite my family being U.S. citizens for over a century.  Spanish I learned as a requirement in school, Japanese and Korean I acquired for my youthful desire of anime and gaming (and also work now).  I only debate in English to help me work with it (and limit things).  In addition, I'm not smart enough to remain fluent in everything and typically need exposure to get in the groove of things again if I haven't heard it in a while.  If you understand Mandarin, I know a little, but it has actually been a challenge and could use some help.

    Also, I thoroughly enjoy debates and have accounts on over a dozen sites for this.  If you wish to engage in such, please put effort in a post and provide sources -- I will then do the same with what I already wrote (if I didn't) as well as with my responses to your own.  Expanding my information on a subject makes my stance either change or strengthen the next time I speak of it or write a thesis.  Allow me to thank you sincerely for your time.

    I have three on my BM hunter, the shoulders BIS, the helm and the pants and still do my emissaries and lfg's. Two on my mage, wrist and feet. Max out your rolls, do your lfrs even at 870+. You have a good chance at decent loot just grabbing off trash which most people ignore.

    This has been me, this whole time.
