Yeah na, if you “miss” it that means you truly didn’t experience it. I started raiding within the first weeks of VoG getting released and it took me four months to go from 29 to 30. I deleted my Hunter after two months for a 2nd Warlock to double my chances and a stupid pair of boots, it was a terrible experience and I just laugh at people who complain about it being to hard to level these days. It’s WAY easier and even less reliant on RNG considering the amount of places drop pinnacle rewards. Back then raids were the only way to progress
