Well, pre-raid BiS doesn't include T1 because T1 is from raids. Also, T1 is pretty bad for some classes and there are plenty of BoE items that are better.

February 4th was three weeks ago...

I'm so confused by those dates.

Disconnecting constantly after this update. It started out happening every like three minutes but now I just get DC'ed instantly upon logging in.

You can also kill the last two giants on the walkway to Princess. Technically you could kill all the giants but you'll have trouble with the patrolling elementals. The giants are buggy if you're at range and they'll just stand there throwing weak boulders for 100 damage, which has a range of like 25 or something less than spellcasting range. Just dot+wand them down from max range. They'll chase if they get into melee range so you may have to pull them by running through one of them and coiling it away while getting some distance. Good way to replenish shards, too.

When are you removing the level 60 gear? What's preventing you from doing it?

Rotgrip will probably be too hard in bad gear and I don't think the run is worth doing with just two bosses unless you're selling the rings, but you can do that.

You don't see thirty hackers and botters on a brief walk around the faction capital. It looks like most (possibly all) players who had level 60 gear before the announcement still have it. We're not talking about a handful of people here, apparently everyone who got their items before the announcement still have them. Are we supposed to send in hundreds upon hundreds of reports? Is it the playerbase's job to inspect each and every person they meet and file individual reports? Why? That is unrealistic and ridiculous. It'll never work. We know that it's possible to remove items through the database. It has been done before. You can either delete them or simply change their required level to 61 or something. Why haven't they done this? How can it be up to the players to report eachother and catch the hundreds of individuals who have items they shouldn't have? If it comes to that, people will just stop wearing the stuff outside their raids/premades. How can you ever hope to catch everyone? It's beyond absurd. The devs made a mistake and promised to fix it, and they simply haven't.

This implies that you've removed the gear from most players but a handful flew under the radar for whatever reason. That's not the case at all. Out of curiosity, I decided to inspect the first 10 players of R7+ that I saw in Orgrimmar. Most of them still had level 60 PvP gear. Confused by this, I went around the city a bit more and inspected everyone I could find of a sufficiently high rank to have pieces of the set, and most of them still had level 60 pieces. It sort of seems like those without it are simply the ones who hit R7+ after it was removed from the shops. It kinda looks like you did little to nothing about it. Are you placing on us the entire burden of finding out who has level 60 gear, and reporting it to you so you can remove it player by player? Are you expecting the players to do this and actually catch everyone who has the items? That's completely unrealistic and ridiculous. If that's your approach, you might as well just put it back in the shop. At least that'll give everyone equal footing. Is there some problem that prevents you from simply removing the items through the database? Can't you just disable them? Give them no stats or something, if you can't delete them? This gear is absolutely gamebreaking now that players reaching those ranks after the items were removed from the shop can no longer get them, giving those who have them a massive advantage. For some classes, the ability to wear two pieces of each set makes the gear rival T2 in stats. Why have you not done what you promised to do over a week ago, and why are you now placing the burden of fixing it on the players?

Doesn't matter very much in dungeons, but I'd take the +42 stamina group buff over +5% shadow damage any day of the week. Half the time you can't even do full DPS in pugs because the tank can't hold aggro. I prefer SM/Ruin for raids as well until AQ40 and Naxx, and you'll still want at least one in the raid even then.

People STILL have the items after today's maintenance. They're not on the vendors, though. This means that not only do people still have their level 60 items, they also have an unfair advantage over those who didn't get them while they could be bought. It's getting silly.

The thread was absent an hour ago when I checked the announcement forum.

Level 60 blue PvP gear is still there, and it looks like they've deleted the announcement.
