Visions Timegating...enough is enough
Edit: I see that this is 11.1.5 not 11.1.7. My mistake.
I can only hope Blizzard will see this and correct it.
Revisited Visions is a timegated portion of the 11.1.7. It came out like..a month after 11.1.7 released.
And now that visions are out...we discover that progressing through the Vision talent tree is also timegated.
Can you just...let us play. This isn't even major story content. Why are you trying to stretch it out?
I'm sure this seems impatient and even slightly ridiculous and typical of WoW players to find something to complain about but really...enough with the unnecessary timegating.

What will you play in Legion Remix?
I played mostly all three spec of monk and holy paladin in Legion but dabbled in feral druid which was a lot of fun. I'll probably end up going back to monk as it has been my main since legion.
If it's similar to MoP remix it will be easy to have alts (depending on if they change legendary acquisition).
What will you be playing and why.

Fury AoE DPS is really that far behind other classes or am I doing something really wrong?
I have been playing with Fury Warrior since MoP and always thought about myself as a avarage player.
This week, after players getting access to basically one of their BiS trinkets and virtually all the gear upgrade they needed, I've been feeling that Fury AoE is getting way worse than before (compared to almost any other classes).
In this log, for example, I'm currently with 675 ilvl competing with a Paladin with 660 ilvl and still could not beat him throughout the key.
I know that its not a high key or anything like that, but seeing that even with 15 ilvl above him I still could not reach his DPS was very frustrating and, if you compare both parses, I still have a greater parse than him in this key.
So I ended up just frustrated and asking myself: "Am I doing something very wrong or this is the limit for the class/spec?"
Note: English is not my main language, so sorry if have some typo or grammatical error.

My miserable 'Play Your Own Key' journey: 25 keys played (17 homework keys, 7 push keys, +15 score gained)
Hey folks,
I just wanted to share some data and experience with you that I've collected/experienced in the past week while trying to push my M+ score with playing my own key only.
**# Initial Situation**
After timing all 14s with my Havoc Demon Hunter, it was literally impossible to get invites to 15. And I can't blame anyone for this: My class simply brings nothing to the table but some super niche utility (e.g. cage skip for CB, DFC or TOP) and thus falls off in comparison to other classes which bring valuable benefits such as bloodlust, combat ress, aoe burst and whatnot. Additionally, people who run their 15s keys hesitate to invite players who didn't time at least one 15 key yet.
As a consequence, I decided to exclusively run my own keys for a week, even if I woudln't want to play them in the first place because they wouldn't give me M+ score (referred to as homework key below) ... and see how far this would bring me.
Spoiler: Not that far.
**# Preparation**
In order to be prepared as much as possible, I started the week with farming 12s to get all my gear to maximum ilvl and to get my Dinar item. As a result, my character had 679ilvl when starting my push.

**# Requirements for Invitations**
For invitations, I set the following requirements:
* DPS needed to have at least 675ilvl and all dungeons timed on the previous key level. This requirement was loosened if a specific class was needed (e.g. a Warlock for gate skip in Workshop)
* Tanks and heals needed to have at least 675ilvl and at least the respective dungeon timed on the previous key level. This requirement was loosened if only the tank/heal was missing or no tank/heal has queued for a longer period of time, provided that the key was resilient.
Additionally - due to the fact that my Havoc Demon Hunter lacks utility - I decided not to invite the following DPS classes as they also lack utility (or rather other classes provide more/better utility):
* Rogues
* Warriors
* Monks
* Priests
* Demon Hunters
Sorry, guys!
**# Pushing Keys**
The following table shows my (quite miserable) journey:

**# (Early) End**
Overall, I managed to get +15 score in the course of the week. Time well spent, I would say!
My original plan was to play keys until this weeks reset, but after finishing my latest homework Workshop 14 just to get a homework Cinderbrew 15, I decided to call it quits.
In total, 17 out of 25 keys I've played were homework keys, meaning I've spent 68% of my time in dungeons I didn't want to play to begin with - and this doesn't even include time spent restarting resilient keys or time spent waiting for a tank or heal to queue up.
It was/is simply not fun.
For me, the biggest flaw of the current system is that you only have one try for your very own push key and once this try is over, the other players have no reason to stick with you - even if the run was good until it wasn't - since they (understandably) don't

Soridormi, intended to be the Brann of horrific visions and help solo players out, is actually hurting by substantially increasing mob health and damage - meaning you should ignore her entirely.

11.1 snatched defeat from the jaws of victory
This patch started as a banger. Everyone in my guild was excited for it and loved undermine. To blizzards credit, the fights this tier are very good. Every content drop and subsequent announcement about 11.1.x content has just soured them to the whole thing.
new event perma bugged
dinar drama
now visions timegated
new belt thing
Every new announcement that isn’t about housing just seems to be net negative.

Picture this- you're at a casino...
About 40 people blow open the front door with bloodlust in their eyes and rush the counter. They start consuming everything- drinking all the Kaja Cola... even the stuff they warn you not to try. A few of them turn into Murloc monstrosities and thrash the staff. Stacy Torquewrench just won big but now she's dead under a pile of gold coins. You run in fear but soon they soon give chase.

I can’t quite get into Delves
I thought when I first read about them I was really going to enjoy them, but they just feel… I dunno, tedious? I’ll try and explain.
The objectives tend to be annoying and really drag the whole experience out. I want to get in there and kill some <whatever the monster is> not have to dodge dive dip duck and dodge my way through room after room of spider webs or fire bars.
Then there is the companion. Why do we have no one other than Brann? Don’t get me wrong, I love dwarves, I love Brann, but not in every single delve. Where’s my kobold friends? I wanna do a delve with a fungal friend. Lots of new models this expansion, and a whole new mode, and they can’t give us even ONE alternative friendo?
I’m not even going to touch on the yo-yo that has been balancing and nerfing. I feel that topic has been beat to death even more than my current whining.
I know they are good for gearing and leveling but I have a hard time sticking with it without getting bored. How do you guys deal with it? Or is this just a me issue?

Got kicked from Dungeon, want to avoid griefing
I’m a new player on one of the new player servers and I tried tanking as a paladin, but I died in a dungeon. I waited to see if I would get resurrected instead of releasing my spirit but I got kicked from the party and received a 30 minute matchmaking ban. Should I have released spirit? Is it normal to get kicked if you die or was I just that bad?

want to play a homework key either.
And while I think it's true that there are reasonable actions one could take to lower the frustration level when trying to push M+ score (making friends, joining a guild, playing a meta class, playing a tank playing a heal), it's also true that Blizzard could do way more to improve the system, especially trying to make push keys more accessible for PUGs, for example by increasing the resilient level of a key by +1 once the player has timed all dungeons of a key level.
This would allow PUG players to progress push keys way more comfortable and would maybe even result in players bonding more with each other - because there is hardly anything that welds people together more than mastering a common challenge.
Use this information however you want ;)

Towelliee and MrGM calling out the hypocrisy of Ion’s PC Gamer interview last week and how horrific visions timegating will be handled, locking cosmetic rewards for 3 resets (even if you have the currency week 1) for no apparent reason and going against Ions own stated intentions and PTR feedback.
