Ask A WoD Beta Tester

Do BG's span 10 levels now?
Does less armor actually mean less physical damage reduction or does it still provide the same amount? Hover over your physical damage reduction and let us know the % and your class.
Do +16 armor kits jack up your reduction an insane amount? That would be like 3 extra pieces of gear...

And finally, the most important one.... Are+16 armor kits added into a Prot's "Bonus Armor" and counted toward attack power?! They get all bonus armor as attack power now.
 
Just a small string of questions regarding low-level skirmishes (if there's enough testers to check this):

With regards to low-level (or any non end-game) skirmishes (especially exp-off), do character stats increase if they're at the lower end of a bracket, like 20s get scaled up to 29 in 20-29 skirmishes (and thus insure 20s/lower-ends are hit-capped in those settings)? Or do skirmishes work differently (like only 20s will be paired, etc?)?
 
what sort of power do you have in pve terms? can you still easily solo same level dungeons? It was mentioned that melee damage of all npc's was doubled, but do spells & npc abilities seem squished properly?

can someone please tell me what is going on with enchants?

is dancing steel still giving 62 agility? What about other enchants like 15 agility to weapon is it still 15 agility or are they scaled down

Are the new neck/ring/cloak enchants implemented? How much of each stat do they give at 10? 60?

The way I see it, is that all the new enchants on neck etc will only be useable for level 100 chars, while all the enchants as we know them today, will continue to work as they do below 90.

So nothing changes there.

I transferred my twinks to see the HP changes. Keep in mind there are different levels and classes on this chart.

Are you stacking Stamina on all your characters? xD

Nice to see though, so we're getting MORE hp now as higher levels get less? That's.... peculiar.

Also,. there are already bugs to put "unobtainable" enchants on BoP gear, sure they'll find something for necklaces and stuff.

As I understood, PvP gear now scales up when in combat with another player and becomes superior in stats to all other PvE gear of about the same iLvl. Is this true to lvl 70's too? And does it mean that 70 twinks will now need to pvp with actual pvp gear instead of the awesome PvE pieces?
 
70 PVP gear was better than PVE gear until 2 major changes occured

- each 1 agi and str stat were given 2ap in CATA
- in MOP 40% free resilience and anything above that greatly nerfed in contribution made PVE totally better than PVP gear. PVP gear due to resilience/stam, weaker primary stats, along with it's intention for PVP overall has 8-13 less sockets possible than PVE gear has

this occured at 90 also most of the MOP expac due to the 60% or 70% free resilence they have and why PVE gear ruled everywhere for a long time with no reason to use PVP gear in PVP, until blizzard caused a nerf in BGs of some PVE items and a buff of PVP gear when in BGs/arenas/pvp combat.

blizzard has said base resilence is gone in WOD, gear in WOD will not have resileince....they said "in WOD" that does not mean resilience on older gear wiill be wiped or replaced. with free base resilience gone, it will be interesting to see if resilience from gear/gems/ench will actually work like it used too?

remember prior to MOP they said resistance is gone, it is not, they wiped resistance enchants from enchanters, however there is easily over 100+ items in WOW with resistance, and although it no longer shows on player stats it still works

I got the Explorer title on my lvl 1 without passenger mounts, before account wide achievements. Still bitter.

Why would you be bitter? And after so long. My my my...
You had fun doing the achievement on your level one, I presume. If not, why would you even play? Isn't that the point of playing, to have fun? Or at the very least have a sense of accomplishment. Your level one had it's day, it's time to move on.

To all of those asking about abilities and what level they are available. They should be shown on the WoD version of wowhead.

This is exactly why I have started making several sets of BoA gear with full resistance/PvP power enchants. You just never know what will happen in the coming months. If it goes away or it does not scale well, I can write it off as a loss. But if resilience does happen to be a desirable stat, I will be prepared.
Failing to plan is planning to fail.

can low levels be ported to the new WOD capital?
 
Um i just read the monk section for class changes....how does spear hand strike apply in pvp combat if you cant be in front of your target...when really that is mostly the direction you are facing.

Is it viable or not
