    Ghostcrawler tweeted the following: We don't make fights that are target dummies. Nerfing numbers means you can afford more mistakes on the mechanics. (source) As I said, if improving gear is fun for you, that's great. Just don't obsess unnecessarily over marginal ilevel improvements. (source) Truer words have never been spoken. There's an attitude amongst WoW players, one that I've fallen into the trap of many many times during the past eight years, of having to get the absolute best gear. My brain is made in such a way that even if there is an item that's five iLevels higher than what I've got, I must have it, or else I'm a failure. That's pretty messed up. No wait, that's really messed up.
