boe twink gear to look for

[twinksmallwood]

Howzit? One of my fav ways to make gold is to hunt down boe twink gear, and with the shadowlands changes im not sure what I should be trying to farm for, if anything. Will like a epic lvl 20 boe's still be useful or will another xpac's loot just be way better? or what loot from different xpacs would be worth getting now verses later?

For a change of system so different it's really hard to pin-down what's still going to be useable and what isn't. Personally if I was going to go after items that could be a gem later, I'd get atleast 1 of every BoE epic possible (who would of thought).

so, just poking around in wowhead (because fuck me, im never getting a Beta invite) and I think you'd probably be best served going after weapons. Esp novelty weapons like Foamspittle that will likely still be BIS for FCs. Slicer blade, jeweled dagger, long crawler limb, etc will all probably still be good. Feathered Cape, probably also good but maybe a little niche.

Most of us in the vet/f2p bracket will probably end up replacing most of our armor with socketed dungeon drops/quest rewards. And it looks like we'll lose access to gear from zones that we lose access to. So... pacifier, feathered headdress and boulder pads are all out. Boarhide leggings, Foremans leggings, hard crawler carapace, etc will all be ditched for 3 gem-slot dungeon gear. We probably also get access to at least the shoulders and gloves from the TBC dungeon sets for a two piece set bonus, which means collecting DMF shoulders, foremans gloves, slither/fang gloves etc is also pointless.

Are we getting access to the slave pens? does lvl 10 count as lvl 58 or straight up 60 for tbc? Do we get access to azerite traits on bfa gear?

Other then those questions yeah I can see weapons being your best bet foamspittle, mystics staff slicer etc.

yeah that's some of the stuff im trying to figure out. Or like if someone has a 70 or 80 twink will they just level to 30 or stay at where they begin, 27 and 30. Like it looks like with the scaling 27 and 30 are really close stat wise but I might be getting confused.

i have been collecting items for the past 1 year across 30+ realms .. mostly agility gears .. i do not know what they will be like in SL, just going by gut feeling .. they are armors that has agility higher than stamina .. and the stamina must be on par with a stamina of a green of that same lvl. i used to have 2 guild banks full of such gears .. only primary stat and stamina, but blizz changed all of them into greens, with 2 random secondary stats .. i hope this time round it will not happen again .. the gears that has primary stats higher than stamina, usually are really OP in bg ..

Given the rapidity with which things are changing (my post from last night appears to be already outdated) it looks like you'd be served pinpointing the big twink brackets like 10 and 50 and collecting gear for those

yup I'm thinking that's the plan, it's hard to keep up with the changes lol
