EU+US 7.1 - Enchants work; explained in-depth

[Captain]

Added this to the Thread and also removed the Twink Merge Removal part.

-- Suffix now work; explained
The Stats an item gains from a Suffix now works in the same way Enchants do. So for example, Scouting Trousers of the Eagle gives Scouting Trousers +4 intellect and +4 stamina. Therefor when using these trousers in PvP you'll gain the +4 int and +4 stam.

So would any of these be BiS over the invasion gear?

If you had any idea how programming works then you'd know that for Enchants to suddenly work would require intentional changes to the game.

Christ just keep the information to yourself. It's nothing any one of us couldn't have found out in a few mins. You are insanely passive aggressive...

Yep. Just tested an ilvl 23 5/5 chest. Its better.

These constant gear changes hurt my brain

I had close to 5k hp with buffs, and now I have 4.5k hp with all buffs. From back to back bgs.

Ele Force working again in bg's but not all chants working in bg's is just dumb. Ele Force ruined bg's before. All you need is a Boomie to DoT you up or a Rogue to poison and bleed you and it's adios amigo's!
I haven't been able to get on yet but these changes seem stupid. They took the chants out for what, all of 2 months and now they are back in?
Surely this is just an oversight on possibly a rushed, poorly checked patch? It goes against everything they have been promoting for Legion PvP changes.
I wouldn't get too excited but I have a feeling we'll be seeing some tweaks fairly soon.

No I have next to no programming knowledge.

I am not saying it "just happened" I am suggesting it was not a deliberate decision to bring back enchants into ipvp. Rather more likely lazy coding in an attempt to implement something like engineering tinkers for example, using a partial copy and paste method from old code?
Is that possible, to be honest I don't know?

Regardless I don't believe it was intentional because it goes against the entire idea behind stat templates.

There is a blue quote stating as such lost in the void since the forums changed but if I find it you'll be the first to see it ;-)

Here you go, I will never forget this

Blizzard never separated twinks from levelers, only xp off players from xp on players.

In other words, the system failed. It was their initial goal though to do so.

Got my spell power up to 219 in wsg using non-BIS gear I bought off the AH. I can confirm that only gear with a suffix matters. For casters only enchants with int / spell power seem to work. Mark of the hidden satyr is also working. It was 13.2% of my dmg, highest hit was 1160 crit.

Haunt was 48.1% of my damage, highest crit was 2856.

Going to have to spend some time farming BIS green boes now. All 'of intellect'. Shadow wrath probably works as well.

I've listed many BiS, BoE greens.

If you have any mail Eagle/Int/Stamina, feel free to send them my way out of the kindness of your hearts.

So do different enchants work in bgs and arena? i tested this in arena last night with @lucasyo in arena and flintlockes minor speed and stats chest did not work however +4 damage scope did?

given the amount of recent blizz snafus the entire game could be a huge gigantic bug and that argument would be surprisingly valid

Crusader enchant doesn't work @ bgs.
