I hate how many different grinds there are in this expansion for legendary weapons and such. Mythics are okay. WoW is just like my home away from home I go to explore lore and goof off for an hour or two a week. The lore and world is very rich. It’s fun to level and do stuff on occasion. It’s fun to collect specific armor and mounts at times. I just don’t enjoy all the grinds and kind of refuse to do them.

I find it equally demoralising but simply let some expert do these things for a couple of hours a week and find my characters all geared up and ready to go when I feel like playing.

May I ask why you don't just simply let these brain dead grinds be done by someone else?

That is just a different type of game at that point. It is all relative and I don't play competitively. Virtually all of the content is accessible at some lower difficulty level, so it doesn't really matter what the stats are on my gear if I can do the content I want.
