If you want to play a game where your gear lasts, wow is not that game.
That's why I try to go for things which last forever such as titles, mounts, achievements. Got my 'the Insane' title, Thunderfury, Reigns of the Raven Lord, Rivendare's Deathcharger, Swift Hawkstrider, Zulian Raptor, Time Lost Proto Drake, etc... I may not raid but I have fun and get stuff that's cool to me
