This is rather insane.
Gear is somewhat a visual clue on how skilled 1 player may be. If they run with T10, it is a given that they have ran ICC a number of times and perhaps have some skill/knowledge.
Now, however, raids are filled with 5.5 full T10 people who farmed 700+ EoFs to get full EoF-vendor gear and don't know much about end content. They have basically skipped multiple tiers of raiding just because they farmed all of their gear via the event.
Either way, where is fun in that?
Warmane keeps telling us that they try to be as "Blizzlike" as possible and refuse to add custom content for the most part. But a game breaking event is totally fine in your eyes. SMH
The purpose is to progress. At least on Lordaeron. Icecrown is a Shadowmourne club, but Lordaeron at least trying to stick to somewhat proper gear progression.
P.S. I did not personally participate in a single EoF farm event myself & i never will. I know it is each to their own, but it does affect everyone's overall experience.
Next year, please, don't make it flat EoF rewards. Make it mounts, pets, and maybe some item pieces. IDC what, but don't allow players to grind up 2 months worth of gear in 2 days. That's jsut absurd.
