EU+US Currently at 383 ilvl at 80. Suggestions to go higher?

Liarea

Grandfathered
I whipped out my old 80 twink from MoP, did some additional gearing on it, and now I'm at ilvl 383. Since they grandfathered most of the old twink gear, is there still a way to go higher? The only thing I can think of right now is the 409 int trinket, and 420 epic shield (already have 417, so not a huge upgrade ^^).

Here's my armory: https://worldofwarcraft.com/en-gb/character/frostmane/ayenilol

I appreciate any suggestions :)
 
just looted a 194 epic Needlefang Throatripper, seems like you need to have a max level to loot the items for you and trade?
Edit: doesn't seem to be working, they just scale to 447 and req 90.
How did you get your helmet? All I'm getting is lvl 81 and ilvl 279 stuff

Just tried to kill an elite that droped ilvl440 legs lvl80 req before, now they droped at 289 and requires level 81, the blue that drops also required level 81.
Kills done on an 80.
 
there are some changes to lvl80 items recently .. do not read wowhead for updates .. everything in wowhead regarding 80 is invalid .. the dungeons do not drop ilvl308 BOP anymore .. the only ilvl308s you can get are those on AH .. there are new leggings for all class that is ilvl440 .. there is a new bow ilvl420 .. new shield at ilvl420 all of which you already gotten .. you will suffer a reduction if you wear that cloth gloves in BG .. you can use the other ilvl409 trinket .. also intel base, but trinket and rings and necklace stats plays no part in pvp, they only consider the ilvl
 
those who are into twinking at lower lvls can consider lvl60, they have full set of gears at ilvl90 available on AH .. that is higher than heirloom at 85 (and you dont get full set of heirloom pcs for every single slot) .. you can also consider lvl89 .. a full set minus the weapon can be obtained for lvl89 on AH .. the new ilvl is set at 498 .. but you can get some epic pieces at 496+8 (496 plus 2 upgrades 4 ilvl each) .. necklaces rings cloaks for all classes are available in epic 496+8 .. if you have the archeo ilvl471 weapon or 491 sunlute, you should very well be over ilvl500 for a lvl89 .. for those who cant use archeo weapon and sunlute .. your best weapons will be those MOP blues that is ilvl450 or higher
 
As far as getting the 440 pieces for 80. They only come from jade Forrest. The other zones give BoEs for 81+

They’ve been relatively cheap on my server so grinding for them hasn’t been worth the time. Just check the ah for them. They will eventually show

I am aware. Currently have one of them equiped.

The only 440 BoE piece are the legs, correct? Have had them for quite the while, but haven't seen any other 440 pieces at 80.
 
Saw a 440 shield on boulderfist horde not to long ago, but had no need or want of it. I can try to find 440 pieces for you if you’d like but I search 32 servers a day so no telling where I will find one

I'm on EU servers, but I'd still be interested in hearing some of your finds -- such as a 440 shield, and other potential upgrades.

Happened to have the pre 7.3.5 version, which required lvl 81 or 83 (not sure), in my bank. In 7.3.5 the lvl req of it was pushed down to 80, but it retained its ilvl.
