Looks like testing for the Dragonflight Intro quest and some pre-patch events begins tomorrow on PTR from 10/14 to 10/16. Starts at 10 AM PDT. Should work for everyone with a previous sub on their account. The Storms are occurring in Un'Goro and Badlands, so level 20 characters can get there easy. Not sure if they can participate but it might be worth parking characters there.

Starting tomorrow, October 14 at 10:00 a.m. PDT, we will be update the Dragonflight PTR to begin a playtest of pre-patch events:

• The Introductory Quest Line
• Elemental Storms in Badlands and Un’Goro. These Storms will change the surrounding area’s weather and enhance enemies with additional powers.
• The Return of Uldaman as a level 60 dungeon.

This playtest will end on the Dragonflight PTR on Sunday, October 16 at 11:59 p.m. PDT.

just solo'd badlands event and got ilvl 25 loot from boss. All the mobs scale except for Water Elemental elite mobs that have 125k health. the boss at end had 22k health.

safe to say the loot will scale up to ilvl 61 upon actual release like dungeon blues since this is on PTR. Also still need to see if they can proc terts, socket or even turn purple

the pre-ptach vendor is located in stormwind harbor but all his gear requires lvl 60. Only thing we can buy is a toy which requires 100 https://www.wowhead.com/beta/item=199211/primeval-essence (i got 14 for one boss kill)

I can confirm they can proc leech, and also the boses drop Dimmed Primeval elements: if you combine the four of them (water earth air and fire) you get a heirloom trinket with main stat plus elemental proc

Adding onto this, several elites will spawn around the boss at around <10-20 Elemental Shielding, each will drop 3-5 Primeval essence, the boss can drop anywhere from 13-15 essence
