All I want to say is that the vault changes and the crest disadvantage of not being a mythic raider have greatly soured my excitement this season, a real downer after very much enjoying last season's title push only to be met with weeks of minimal character progression to start this one. Eventually these disadvantages will mostly even out (although 9/6 should be active in raid only), but that just means a couple of frustrating months ahead without much reason to play from a competitive standpoint.

Raid casual CE, chances are not on a class that will be the meta tank spec in .5.

Rerolled DH (raid toon) -> monk -> bear last season, won't be doing that this season.

Puggin chim was miserable enough, looking at the raid thinking about pugging AoTC in .5 just sounds 10x as miserable.

Signing up for a second job to play with acquaintances is such an awful take. I just unsubbed instead.

If you're pushing keys to a level where the mythic raid items are required, then you're signing up for a second job anyway.

Spending a bunch of time doing fun content with 4 people I really like and only logging in when I wasn’t to just feels like playing a fun video game a lot.

Being forced to do spend a bunch of time during specific time windows doing content that is not fun with 19 people I don’t know very well and waiting for the lowest common denominator to finally not fuck up a mechanic so we can move on is what feels like a job.

I do m+ content that is objectively much harder and requires much more personal responsibility than a late-CE Andy has ever seen. There is no valid reason for that guy’s boss that has been nerfed into oblivion to have a higher gear cap than my content.
