EU+US 91/99 Bracket

I don't think most people understand how good this bracket is, it reminds me of old 60 and 70 bracket. I wish more players from other brackets would come play this because I think it would be fun and competitive. I certainly believe it's better than cap PvP. It feels more how twink brackets should than 19s and 29s too imo.
 
Could you explain what makes 99 different from 100 other than the gear and talent? I have always wondered why people choose to twink 1 level below endgame, maybe you can enlighten me.
 
91 and 99 if you turn xp off you play either other 91/99 twinks but you also play MoP accounts that haven't upgraded yet so you kind of the twink feeling by 2-3 shotting those guys, and basically anyone else as well. You can use old scaled up gear too to make yourself pretty op as well.
 
Huge range of low level gear and setbonuses to scale up and use, (was) active due to MoP locked accounts.
 
100s slow paced boring pvp. Don't be butthurt 91s/99s shit on 90s, it's more like twinking than twinking any other bracket has been in a long tim.
 
i just started wow again on my 93 mage... i wonder, if i want to be in this 91-99 bracket, what lvl do i xp lock , 99 or earlier? and what gear do u use ? the warlord crafted (3) pve gear has nice stats... (but that is way to expensive for me) or old pvp sets ? i have the i550 pvp set now from way back...
i see in the armory ppl just use lvling gear, like 'windshaper' gear ... ?!
damn, i've been playing 20 for months, and this 'endgame' is confusing now :p haha
 
At 99 you have a lot of options. You can either pray to get the highest ilvl items while using 3 fully upgraded crafted pieces (Kinda boring), or you can use ANYTHING in the game and it will scale up. You could use a level 10 item and it will scale up to 99. This creates a lot of fun possibilities, such as all the low items with bonus armor. Stacking those on a tank can be pretty fun. A lot of tier set bonuses will work too (But not all of course), leading to some interesting combinations. Same deal with old trinket/weapon procs. Remember that haste mace from Gnomeregan, the Manual Crowd Pummeler? Well in the 99 bracket, it scales from 193 to a little over 7000 haste.

Overall, unfortunately, a lot of this will be changed in Legion though. Twinking in general will either be hit or miss. While there are some big negatives such as stat templates in pvp, there are also some interesting positives such as xp off and on players no longer having their own brackets.

So who knows!

Edit: Ok not everything scales so well, and some procs/bonuses don't scale at all. Just felt like adding that lol. You gotta experiment a bit.
