When I pug I do some normals. They go super fast. I go bear and basically pull everything in my path and press my two air buttons. I get a normal done in about half the time as a heroic for 66% of the reward.
It makes TWO pieces of gear total, which are equivalent in ilvl to a normal raid drop, AND whose crafting IS required to make use of the crafting material raid drops. Plus, of course, it's RANDOM STATS MAN. You will barely be able to craft your two pieces before the raiding begins, and they're obsolete the week after...
I got Incessantly Ticking Clock from a WQ once or twice, but other than that its largely been Versatility gear that spawns, which I abso-the-fuck-lutely do not want.
It's raid prep gear for ServerFirst guilds.
Everyone is going digital, which means day1 sale. Nobody is waiting until weekend to go to a store and pick up the box anymore...
if you have done 30 mythic dungeons, then your ilvl is almost certainly at a point where TWO whole normal-raid ilvl items are not going to change much in your performance... and if you've done it before raiding unlocks, you're almost certainly in a guild where you're going to go heroic that week or the next and your gear is obsolete.
I don't play every class, but I am fairly certain the main stat on a 355 is more beneficial even with bad secondaries than a 340 piece of gear.
What's your ilvl? There is a point where doing WQ for gear upgrades is no longer necessary or worthwhile.
