Why in heaven's name did Blizz put Resilience on every piece of blue crafted cloth and leather armor? Hello?! If you're going to stick me with it, at least let me reforge out of some of it.


While on the subject, if Blizz can let me reforge stats, why can't they let me customize my own stats when I craft something? They can set the base stats like Int, Str, Agi, etc., and allocate XXX green points to put into say 2 or 3 secondary stats of my choice? Players would get what they want and crafters might actually make money on custom items.


Wait, giving players what they want? I answered my own question....

Blizzard does not want you crafting a set of PVE gear at 85, they want you hideously grinding dungeons for it.

The crafted sets are intended strictly to get people PVP'ing as soon as they hit 85, so they can start THAT hideous gear grind without getting roflstomped by hardcores who already have full pvp gear from using Tol Barad exploits to get fully outfitted in a single day

A grind is a grind, whether you're at the keyboard or not.

I just wish they would make the iLvl not 333, so I can stop getting scrubs in PvP gear in my heroic.

I agree except they don't get roflstomped *as badly* with the crafted.

your supposed to make the blue resil gear and use it to get the blue pvp gear...then use that to queue for heroics and get real pve gear while pissing off your groupmates.

Actually the crafted PvP set isn't all that bad for fresh 85 for PvE content.

If you have also been questing, you can also pick up up some reputation gear and quest gear to go along with that.

So how's Rift? I hear there are no grinds and the classes are balanced over there!

It never ceases to amaze me how people flock to an inferior WoW-clone with even worse balance issues coming to the fore and they want to imply that they are returning here to tap-dance on us poor WoW sucker's grave. SHENANIGANS I say!
