EU+US I don't understand the point anymore (help)

Grandfathered
with this new Ilvl nonsense I have no idea what's going on, I was almost BIS at one point aside from arena trinkets, but I get blasted by level 15 survival hunters, is there any point to twinking now? do enchants not work? I just am so lost and I saw this site in another forum so here I am, I just don't get the point anymore with everything tailored, there's no incentive to try and get the best gear anymore and it is truly heartbreaking because I love twinking.

Have a read through some of the 7.1 gear change/enchant posts most is explained in there!

PVP is borked atm. Suffix'd gear is BiS and some enchants work, while others don't. Every time you complete a BG, joining another BG increases your stats until you log out. A bit sad, tbh, since Legion was off to a great start, now 7.1 hits and everything is broken again.
 
The gaining health from every consecutive BG played but isn't affecting all classes. I know it seems to be the opposite for my Rogue, but not as bad, only loosing like ~100health per BG played. I haven't noticed it at all on my druid.

The gear issue looks to be that "of the blah" random greens are applying the proper iLvl requirements + adding the stats to your char sheet. So you can double dip with them. Miles had like 7k health as a mage and was 2-3 shotting people while he was wearing all +int greens.

I highly doubt this will last, so I wouldn't be too worried. If you don't want to deal with it, then maybe try grinding some good "of the blah" greens while you wait, just in case this somehow becomes the new norm.

Good Sir! I completely agree.

This iLvL crap is complete BS. I was dam-near BiS during WoD and I worked very, very hard to get that way. Legion looked so promising for Twinks when it was announced that I pre-ordered almost a year in advance. I Decided to finally give it a try after the pre-patch and my hours of accomplishment up into WoD now feel for naught.
I haven't really involved myself too much in End-Game content since Vanilla, Twinking has always been why I return to the game.

but Blizz, IMO has nerfed everything fun about twinking. I would rather farm for 20 days straight to get Gloom armor that has +1 more agility just to feel twink nostalgia, than equip a statless f'ing ring or necklace that was made for RP. I absolutely refuse to iLvL-Twink (would it be iTwink?), which happens to be what classifies as twinking in Legion. I hold my breathe that things will return to normal and stats will become relevant again in PvP.
