Interesting Item thread (No flaming, only constructive replies please)

My previous thread turned into a QQ galore.

Please only reply if you know any interesting item that is still attainable (link your grandfathered twink elsewhere please). It has to be an item that is interesting yet most people aren't aware of it or havn't realized its potential.

The definition of interesting will be strictly PVP-focused.

I will start.

This appears to require level 20, i think it would be great for flag carriers in WSG

It's ok. Proc chance is very low. It's a 5 sec Stun that's not broken on damage, like a gimpy HoJ. It works with Shatter for Frost mages.
 
People were talking a lot about https://www.wowhead.com/item=137538/orb-of-torment?bonus=1826:1472 a few weeks ago, not sure how that came out.

Also wanna check out https://www.wowhead.com/item=136978/ember-of-nullification?bonus=1826:1472 but havent got around to it yet.

Throw this on any of the plate classes and you've got an additional interrupt/charge/CC on a halfway decent cooldown.

Evocate helm to help recharge the mana bar in the sweatiest mid fights.

question, how does level requirement work nowadays? both items linked above by warglave and the circle of flame show a required level higher than 20 on wowhead, so i am a little confused

yeah just wowheads linking, there's probably a way to show the scaled versions but idk.

if you loot on a 20 it's scaled @ 20

wowhead tooltips dont indicate that all dungeon loot scales to the level of the person running the dungeon. if you can get there (through legit means, not clever use of game mechanics) then the loot will be useable.

i see, thanks!

that opens up a lot of options for level 20s then. what instances or raids can level 20 enter?

is there a list of places that we can get to through legit means?

There might be a list in the FAQ's? It's a pretty considerable amount of instances across all the expansions now. Many of the TBC dungeons that aren't listed in the group finder are available to walk into, provided you can get there. No raids currently.

My stuff came from Uldaman and Black Rock Depths.

Does this set bonus work? seems pretty OP (doesn't show inactive to me)

https://www.wowhead.com/item-set=65/spiders-kiss
 
The most reliable and convenient for me has been the in-game adventure guide and just looking through dungeons and hovering over the loot. If the loots reading at 20, its for us. If its reading like lvl 25 or 30, its not for us.

ok thanks!

Big fan of this two set for everything that isn't PvP. Haven't really seen anyone talking about it anywhere though. It stacks with like, everything you could think of.

but this seems extremely good in pvp too...5% extra speed is amazing for kiting, no? is still still okay to wear cloth as leather or mail classes? the 5% speed seems like amazing to me and I wanna get it on my druid.

Maybe, Idk. I don't PvP a whole lot anymore. I use this set on my 10.

They're BFA rare drops, so they can proc, but unless you get an ill nasty proc on both the items, you're going to be sacrificing some noticeable stats for that 2 piece.

Also, speed is a lot easier to come by at 20. I would imagine getting 5% from greens is super ez.

The fact that it stacks with everything though is awesome. Nelf racial, gift to cloak, minor speed to boots, speed gear, etc.
 
The mace from the boss scales but the dagger from the dungeon rare requires lvl 24(as with the other rare mob loot from LBRS)

jigga-wh.. what rule do i not know about that causes this?
 
read from this post on. We mention testing LBRS specifically eventually; seems to affect dungeons that are not on the queueable list because they are too high.(dungeons you have to walk to/in)

To reiterate this does not affect normal boss loot. Only seems to affect rare mob loot and some rare/epic BoEs(not necessarily exclusively from that dungeon either)
I remember this beeing a thing earlier in bfa and legion aswell when loot started scaling. Bossdrops and boe dungeon specific items didnt scale below certain thresholds. Which was when you could enter or queue dungeon. So gnomeregan loot as an example stopped at 24
