__________________

From crit chance to crit rating. What's that?

Crit rating scales with level so this is a good thing for us twinks. The lower level, the higher crit chance from the naxx enchants.

Template
Level | 14 crit rating converted to crit chance
Lvl 19 = 4.73% crit chance
Lvl 29 = 2.47% crit chance
Lvl 39 = 1.68% crit chance
Lvl 49 = 1.27% crit chance


____________________

Can you use it on BoP items?

- NO.
Meaning you CANNOT enchant it on e.g. https://classic.wowhead.com/item=10657/talbar-mantle

Reason why is because the item needs to be in the lvl 60's inventory in order to enchant it. You can not enchant it through the trade window.

_________________

Does the item become BoP after enchanting it?

- NO.
If you for an example use it on a white (common) item like https://classic.wowhead.com/item=6579/defender-spaulders , then you can trade it to any character if you so like.

_________________

If you're a lvl 19 rogue, then it's highly recommended for you to use the enchant on https://classic.wowhead.com/item=5404/serpents-shoulders because it upgrades to https://tbc.wowhead.com/item=5404/serpents-shoulders (+9 agi) in TBC. Main reason to do this ASAP in vanilla is because it becomes soulbound in TBC, most likely on the prepatch even.

PATCH 3.1 + WotLK Shoulder Updates

Patch 3.1 + WoTLK

These shoulders get upgraded in WotlK if wotlk twinking interests you. Note heirlooms might be available until then and the naxx enchants will most likely be disabled in the entire duration of WotLK.

Good initiative

Would you be able to put it on BoE blues/greens in higher lvl brackets?

 

[Anexa]

Would you be able to put it on BoE blues/greens in higher lvl brackets?

Since the item doesn't become BoP / Soulbound, then yes. Make sure to not equip the item before enchanting it

 

[Loone]

Add healing + mp5

 

[Anexa]

Add healing + mp5

Done, thank you for the feedback!

 

[Penster]

Can these enchants be applied through Trade Windows?

 

[Symandria]

No, they cannot be applied through the trade window.

 

[Anexa]

Can these enchants be applied through Trade Windows?

As @Symandria said, the item needs to be in the lvl 60's inventory and can not be enchanted via trade window

Will add that answer in the main post

IM GETTING MINE NEXT WEEK FOR 6K WHO’S HYPED

 

[Anexa]

This person bought the enchant for 40 000 gold.
Not naming & shaming, just mentioning what it might be worth this early of phase 5

That's the equivalent of like $2000

 

[xanx]

Gf'd toons were being sold for far more. Patience is a virtue and those who put in the work will get their enchants.

yeah, GF'd toons. Back when people didn't know that Serpent's Shoulders were going to turn to blue quality shoulders with +9agi. Not trying to argue, I just mean we all know what to do this time around and 40k gold is absolutely ridiculous to spend. Most raiding guilds will probably sell these enchants for 6-12k on average (maybe less) due the the fact that at 60, they are hardly better than the ZG enchants, which are astronomically cheaper and way easier to obtain, making the naxx enchants pretty much mainly for twinks.

I just don't want people thinking they are going to have to spend anywhere near 40k to get one of these enchants. Patience is a virtue, correct, the price will go way down after more kills.

 

[BANKONE]

Who’s got me. 41k

 

[Opek2]

inb4 these arent usable in tbc classic because blizz cucks us somehow

 

[Cleatuss]

when our children’s children look up the year 2020 and or world of warcraft, a picture of the greatest cuck fest ever will pop up

 

[Anexa]

@Bigbus got the AP one for 10 000 gold - https://xpoff.com/threads/lets-goooooo.95131/#post-1254604

10k

Someone else recently bought healing + MP5 for 8 000 gold

 

[Dramatized]

People should keep in mind that the healing enchant gets buffed in TBC

 

[Stam]

So, as I understand it then (and let's assume TBC is a smooth transition from Classic for this hypothetical), if one intends to make either a Draenei or Blood Elf and use Serpent Shoulders, they will NOT be able to have an enchanted pair (unless WoTLK becomes a thing and race changes happen)? Aside from putting an enchanted pair on the AH overnight on patch day and buying them on the new character as a then-soulbound item (yeah....right).
