It was a great event last time, this event will be much shorter lived, wonder if the emerald dragons will be up?

Korraks scaling to lv 50. GG bliz. Thank you

 

[DeLindsay]

Idiots at Blizz once again Level gating once in a lifetime Events. These should be made available to ALL Levels.

 

[Emelia]

where does it say its level 50 only?

i will read it again but it says max level changed from 120 to 50 not 50 only

 

[DeLindsay]

AV requires Level 20, several Quests in the chain require Level 50, etc.

Last time 10-120 was allowed. Now it seems to be 20-50

 

[Emelia]

Best of luck on good drops for you 20s
I assume the world boss won't be scaled to 10 but we will see

 

[warriors301]

Perhaps since its unique they will allow level 10s in. Pretty sure level 10s got in, and it had a unique join queue bar before but I could be wrong. The world bosses actually might scale this time since it seems almost everything in the world scales if your in the correct leveling zone, but I guess they could specifically scale it to higher than level 20 to prevent 10s from getting it, not sure why they would tho. We will all see very soon tomorrow heh, interesting that they brought it out so much earlier. On another note, we can all play our high level twinks again if it comes back! Time to break out that spellfire set.

 

[Warglave]

It says minimum level 10 right on the wowhead page.

edit- oh, i see what youre saying now....

 

[warriors301]

So koraks has a separate queue option right? Meaning exp off can queue too? Omg omg hype!

Time to rank that prestige! Maybe one day my main will have a glorious pennant.... one day

If I remember right it lumps you in with other xp off members and level 50s, so you will certainly get queues if it remains the same! I am not sure if this was confirmed, but it definitely seemed likely. Low levels might be at a more severe disadvantage this year tho, but higher lvl twinks should still do fairly well.

(You can also do the exp reduce debuff or exploit in with xpoff cough cough, but its probably better to just queue normally). The exp reduce debuff might not be as effective too since korraks gave a ton of passive exp and when you lost/win as well.

Meh seems to me at lvl 20 with all these damn near ilvl50 gears we should fair okay considering scaling... we'll see i guess.

I don't expect every lvl 50 to be mythic geared but I suppose it is kinda late in the expac.

IF the scaling is accurate AND low Levels have access to it, we'll absolutely dominate even Mythic geared 50's. During the Legion pre-patch, 100's couldn't even hold threat off my Level 10 Healers, in meh gear.

well, it depends on if stuff gets scaled down, I imagine level 20s will still get scaled up, and they probably will scale lvl 50s down to make them more fair. However, since it seems levelers had a different queue altogether when it was tested before they might just keep it at lvl 50. Even if it does get scaled down, it depends on how far, that might include level 20 stuff too. Also, even if it does scale down level 50s get stamina bonuses from heart, azerite traits, and I think essences. The main thing that twinks had was other very strong gear that level 50s didn't get until I think a bit later into the event, so we will see if that remains the same. When it was all levelers, my twinks darn powerful(as expected) lol. They might disable azerite traits, heart, and essences this time though.

With any luck the doomwalker with drop an unscaled two hander that I can slap a gale force on while I farm ilvl 28 boe relics.

It would be funny if they forgot to scale anniversary stuff.

 

[warriors301]

5gold says int casters get a ilvl50ish velens staff lookalike with 3 gem slots before blizz even has a chance to say "oh shit!"

Didn't the same thing happen for like the first week on the LK timewalking deal?

You could also socket bfa gems in there for insanely high intellect. Oh I didn't do the first week LK timewalking, but It wouldn't surprise me lol. I think the anniversary ones are sadly less likely to not be scaled because they were already scaled before, but maybe since i dont think you could get it below lvl 60, and there is a new doom rare that might not scale properly.

Wait is PTR up?

Lol I just gotta know now. But yeah I'll try tomorrow. Wasn't expecting this. I hope my 49 will have a shot at gear.

Ah I understand lol. Since its activated at a certain calendar time, it probably won't be up on the ptr. We will get access to it soon!

Are those dragons coming back? My 49's gear are all from the dragons

Not sure yet, but I hope so. Although they might all require 30+ based on this new quest and world boss

I'd love to get my hands on a scaled up https://www.wowhead.com/item=30722/ethereum-nexus-reaver . But I doubt the gems would be a feature aside from an RNG proc

Considering the last anniversary was before 8.3, I'd imagine the new anniversary gear scaling for 49 will be base ilvl 80-90ish. But I doubt warforging will come back for it.

edit: he doesn't have a loot table yet
