I'm still enjoying 6.2 to be honest, I'm okay with the game. Only because I like going back and doing old quests I haven't completed and I like healing dungeons, especially if I have a friend with me I just make him pull everything.

But anyone that isn't doing that and anyone that isn't currently raiding I can't imagine they would stick around for 5 dailies in Tanaan. It's great and all they want to appeal to the super casual, that's probably a smart move, but there's got to be something more, man. I'm not looking forward to another 8 month wait for something else.
Something more? A 13 boss raid, mythic dungeons, new questing zone with dailies, shipyard, special events, pet battles, and timewalking dungeons. There is a ton to do. If none of that interests you, well that is on you. I like that they added all the new content but did not make any of it required in order to do something else. I am not compelled to sink 1 to 2 hours in dailies every day just to stay current. Instead I can do some if I have time for rep or pass, no big deal. Same for all the other new content.

The game certainly has its flaws but, currently, not enough content is not one of them.

1) okay
2) Loot is worse than normal raids who cares
3) Lame
4) Time gated like garrison
5) ++
6) zzz
7) Boring rehash of content we all beat 100 years ago for subpar/no rewards is EQ2 / SOE style content delivery. A pile of lame.

Think I'm just tired of the game though, have fun!

You nailed it. Hell, once you need a reward to do things in game (i.e., your complaints about mythic dungeons and timewalking) you probably don't like the game anymore.

A lot of people appear jaded and just looking for reasons to hate the game now. When you were max level and in raids at vanilla, what else was there to do? TBC, Wrath, Cata, Panda?

I said I enjoy it. But there's still the fact you're going to be in the same raid for months to come.
Unless they implement more in Tanaan (I feel like they probably will) then I already feel done with the zone, excluding getting exalted with the factions.

Either way, I've definitely gotten my moneys worth out of this game & now I can get all my golds worth out of it too. Never have to pay again so ayyy

My guild stopped raiding after 6/10 mythic in brf because it was too tedious to rebuild every time a key player got bored, so we all ended up around 695-700 ilvl. That said though, you can still get warforged items in mythic dungeons which are ilvl 705 - which is GREAT for those classes that were gated behind weapons and whatnot off harder bosses (like hunters who were obviously screwed)

At any rate there's a lot of content in this patch, it might not necessarily be the content the game needs but tanaan so far is interesting, although all the chests you find just contain crap pretty much

One question about the naval stuff is once you replace equipment on a ship with something else is the stuff you replaced just gone or does it go into an inventory some where.
Gone. Don't go on an orgy of equipment swap needlessly. It really takes planning to swap equipment: you need to figure out which equipment isn't going to be needed for a while, and which will be most used, then start missions based on that.

With the Inn nerf, I'm half tempted to replace the Inn with a Lumberyard for extra garrison resources... except there appear to be no tree worth cutting in the entirety of a... jungle?

Shooting for this set-up for half your fleet will cover every cache mission at 100%:

-Epic Battleship [True Iron Rudder] [Blast Furnace]
-Epic Carrier [Felsmoke Launcher] [Blast Furnace]
-Epic Destroyer [Felsmoke Launcher] [Trained Shark Tank]
-Epic Submarine [True Iron Rudder] [Trained Shark Tank] Human/Panda Crew
-Epic Submarine [Q-43 Noisemaker Mines] [Trained Shark Tank] Human/Panda Crew

That last Submarine is a bitch, and you'll have to keep just straight up making and leveling new Subs in order to reach 100% for the mission that needs both of em, since Q-43 Noisemaker Mines and your Crew are randomly-determined aspects of the boat.

I unlocked my shark tank and true iron rudder last night which are conveniently right next to each other although that whale shark is really nasty. That thing was just spike killing tanks through an awful lot of heals. Make a raid to do that guy he is no joke.

Deleted my lumber yard after one day in Tanaan. The building was already pretty much inferior to the trading post. Then the made the JUNGLE you'll be spending most of your time in from here on out have no timber at all? The best place to get wood is still the grasslands of Nagrand. Ok.

Look at this guy here, pretending to play the game because he enjoys the content, Lol. I wouldn't grind quests if it didn't reward me with xp, I wouldn't raid if it didn't give epics. I wouldn't play the game if there wasn't some increase in power as a result of my playing it. If I didn't need gear from mythic dungeons I definitely wouldn't do them which is why I haven't done challenge dungeons because costumes are stupid and 640 gear was worthless almost instantly. Never done any achievements either, I literally don't have the time to do something that doesn't give me something because While I'm dicking around with some meaningless achievement, the player base is moving up in ILVL and asking for higher ILVL to do content.

I play the game because I enjoy raiding. If I didn't enjoy that, I wouldn't play the game. They have done a good job separating all the content so you don't have to do any of it you don't want to unless you are doing your initial gear up. I raid two times a week, run old raids for xmog/gold, and then mainly just dick around if I have free time and feel like playing.

If youre really having fun in this game still then kudos to you, but this isnt alot of content for a patch by no means. I guess if youre interestedin rehashed shit then i guess its the gravy train. However Tanaan is just some gated bullshit and the shipyard is a bit of a letdown. However i do like some of the raid bosses, Gorefiend and that Battlemaster dude were pretty fun encounters.

Log in then 30mins of Tanaan and im done for the entire day, UNLESS i want to grind.

I'm curious which patch you think had more content than 6.2.

So, I just did a dungeon with the bonus call to arms thing or w/e that needed more healers, and when I opened the satchel you get for completing the dungeon, I got the regular gold+runes && twoBaleful items that are account-bound.Wowhead doesn't listone of the itemsin the satchel I found so I'm inclined to believe that any baleful item can drop from the satchel. Any meaning: I got a leather helm as a plate wearer. But hey, account bound is nice!

I couldnt say for sure bc i honestly dont pay attention to stuff like that - Comparing it also irrelevant bc i didnt compare it to another content patch - Just because it may have more meat on the bone than another bone with less meat doesnt make it meaty either. If i can log in and be done with whatever is required in less than 30mins it doesnt really add any new incentives. In fact if i didnt have to log in to send out ships and do the dailies to work towards ring or making ring easier to obtain i would just go back to logging in only for raids and it would be as is nothing at all changed besides the class tweaks in my eyes.
i
At any rate as i said to those enjoying it then kudos to you but to me its more of the same with even lamer methods to keep you logging in by gating even more things.

23 more naval wins to go!

How's the single player content for someone who hasn't played since before blackrock foundry or whatever was released? A month before I get bored if I'm not an alt person?
