PTR TBC Heroics no longer available at 27

As the title suggest-- logged on the PTR today to notice that my helm + gloves which are from TBC heroics appeared as red on my repairscreen.

On closer inspection, I realized that they changed the level requirement to 30. These items had a level requirement of 27 when I copied the character over a week or two ago.

I tried entering a TBC HC and it confirmed my suspision, they have now changed the requirement to enter the dungeon to level 30.

If you're staying at 27 post squish, this might be your queue to farm up gems from HCs as they may become GFed after prepatch.

DON'T VENDOR YOUR HEROIC GEAR JUST YET! I logged on this morning and my heroic gear seems to be working in order. I put in a bug because it didn't make sense that were not allowed to enter raids or heroics until were level 30, so why can I wear my raid gear but not heroic gear.. All of my heroic gear seems to be working now except for a couple of pieces. Sadly the heroic ilvl is significantly lower then normal gear. Hopefully Blizz will fix that too.
