Huge item level gear swings

I just looked at the items i had in void storage and they're literally all a question mark right now. Literally a ?
i can't take them out of void storage lol.

They display 0 stats.
Yeah I notice that as well from time to time. Log in and out with ur character and it will fix it.
Yeah, gotta love Blizz….
No way will I pay again for this game…. The errors and issues are woeful. I’d be put in jail if I produced this quality of work for paying customers :FrogeConcern:
 
Hi. My experience on scaling. After leveling a lot of toons with the Primal Elements and getting weird iLvL I went back to my normal weekly schedule which is basically getting my level 60 shaman into SoO (mythic) to complete set gear and taking my 2nd account and one or two nice players from the guild with me that used to gear level 35 toons too.
What we discovered is that a level 35 heirloom is ilvl 97 while SoO Mythic drops range from iLvl 45-47 which makes them really bad.
Random green items / Aurora/Harmonious/etc are iLvL 81 (same for my 60 as for their 35s)

edited: I found an exception to the rule. Tokens. If I open one of the set tokens from SoO (on a level 60 toon) it's iLvl 126 - not sure if this applies to level 35 characters too, but I'll try to find out later that week.

I feel a bit sad and I still hope we get a fix for that, because I liked getting into 30+ pvp.

It did at 30 with set tokens from ulduar, but they weren't as good as normal epic dungeon drops from WotLK pre-patch before they changed them to blue, or even the regular ulduar heroic drops. But they were 105 ilvl compared to 115 for gf wotlk epics and 107 for ulduar heroic drops. Not sure how it will be at 35 but likely similar... but SoO is top tier so maybe better (ulduar is lower tier than ICC, but I dont think ICC normal drops scale and I was just looking for extra gem slots).
 
Some new things (for me, maybe for some of you)

Sunwell:
Level 30 character.
Green items: ilvl 66
Epix: ilvl 109

ICC (25 heroic):
Level 30 character.
Green item: ilvl 66
Epix: ilvl 115
Set Tokens: ilvl 35

Firelands (10 heroic):
Level 35 character.
Green item:
Epix: ilvl 37 or 118 (I have no idea what and why it's 37 or 118. I got two rings of that different ilvl, a plate item with high, a leather item with low ilvl - makes absolutely no sense to me)

For tokens it seems to apply the same "logic" as in drops. I used 2 tokens to create a set item and got 1 ilvl 37 and 1 ilvl 118 item.

That's cool! The ones I got on a 30 last week (maybe even monday?) are not... would have been nice for old 70's.

I know nothing of coding especially when it comes to games but there must be a better way to just rise the given ilvl to a specific number yet they seem to do it manually with every single item type for some reason

I never coded but I can just imagine how many databases there are for items from each xpac and how much of a mess it can create when they make broad changes like this. It was a nightmare in just something as simple as MS Access at times.
 
A short update after some time. Most people should have found out that SoO loot seems to be fixed. My ID this week dropped mythic gear again on 126ilvl (level 35 character). Heirlooms on the same level are ilvl97. I think this should make SoO best for 35.

Anyone has an idea what WoD TW vs WoD Chromie vs WoD mythic dungeons drop?
 
On my level 40 DH, I ran myself through Mythic Hellfire Citidel and the gear was item level 138, a nice starting point before I start working towards WF (146 for a level 40).

Raids do not seem to be able to be entered when you are in Chromie time, I was only able to enter in the current timeline.

Did your existing SoO gear get scaled up to the proper ilvl? My 35 toons (last I looked) in full SoO mythics were at like ilvl 46 or something stupid.
 
No, the existing gear is still broken, but the drops have been fixed.

Here two examples from guild mates.
A toon that was SoO geared before DF prepatch (with Throne of Thunder Mythics) - 45ilvl is the broken SoO, 118ilvl ToT Mythic

This is a toon from yesterday.

That's always the case. You can't enter content you are not in chromie time for and not with friends that aren't in the same chromie time too.
And even if you have Chrome time activated for WoD you can't enter Mythic Dungeons or Raids before their explizit levels.

I see what you are saying, but I was in WOD chromie time, and exactly level 40 when I tried. Even outside of a group solo I still cant seem to enter any raid when in Chromie time since the pre patch, even one that matches the content. I was able to enter raids in CT prior to DF prepatch no problem, its only after DF came out that this seemed to have changed.
