Hi All,
We've been slowly building a community on US servers of 120s who party sync into the lower 111-119 bracket as "twinks". This spawned from running into so many premades doing the same - the bracket has become pretty wild and is a pretty great time since you do keep all of your azerite traits (they show as greyed out, but they DO proc). This allows you to pick the best azerite traits for your toon without having to worry about the iLvl of the gear that those traits are on - since it all scales down to ilvl 284 anyway. Fun traits like Laser Matrix from previous BFA raids also become relevant again since all gear becomes the same iLvl upon scaling. As a 120 this bracket is a blast... you are incredibly strong.
You'll very often see 8 120s and 2 characters of only proper level on the opposing side in a premade. (This is the max you could ever have since it requires you to queue with a team of 5 maximum, and 1 has to be of the proper level). Essentially 2 premades randomly by chance entering the bg together since so many people are apparently doing this.
I think it would be nice to have a place where we can all post our battlenet tags or character names so we can all add each other as friends to twink this bracket on our 120s at any time. (Just to build friend list, and to know whoever else is down to do this whenever you're online). I also have a second account I use as an anchor to "solo queue" my 120 in case no one wants to bring their lower level toon. This toon simply doesnt enter the BG when the queue pops but lets us into the game even when no lower level players are on.
If there is already a thread like this, I apologize.
