Looks like the DF ilvl changes are up on the PTR....

[Warglave]

Just updated my PTR client and the new 112 epics are finally... 112. Mhrmmmmmm.

Whelp.... cool.

edit- aaaannnddddd.... the enchants are seemingly indeed grandfathered. At least applying the scrolls.
edit2- aaannnnndddd.... the adventure journal is still showing level 30 loot for most dungeons.

Cant get into chromie time, got some DF quests I apparently have to do first (hopefully)? On the 29, at least.

Nope. Cant get in chromie time and the quests are for the invasions and new dungeon.

This means we have until the 14th to grind out gears.

edit: looks like PTR is a delayed version (prior versoin) of beta, BoE epics like singine crystal axe aren't scaling at all right now.

 

[Goohd]

you can do like 2 df quests that lead up to two more df quests. one is lvl restricted since u cant enter the new uldaman, however the second quest gives u a elemental pet and seems completable on a 20.

chromie also being a bitch not letting me choose any timeline

 

[Warglave]

Yeah, i used that stupid slow-ass supplied dragon cuz everything is in spots requiring flight.... annoying.

Does the PTR treat them as individual and not account toons? SO technically we havent unlocked Chromie yet on them? Super annoying.

 

[Goohd]

i was selected to WoD timeline on retail and copied my toon like that. Upon logging on ptr it put me to present timeline and didnt stay as WoD. seems intentional?

 

[Warglave]

Maybe they only want people testing DF and not their broke-ass previous content.

 

[Leek]

dungeon gear seems to be ilvl 61, WoD epics from dungeons appear to be ilvl 87, WoD epic elekk tusk is lvl 57, ilvl seem to be sorted by xpac release order (lower to higher), these 2 legion trinkets were obtained at lvl 20 and copied over, Might is a blue from stormheim quest, Stonedark is a green that upgraded from a Highmountain quest

i feel these seem to just be broken stuff and temporary

enchants also are off: Crusader procs only 25 str at lvl 20 now

i only have 1 weapon that has a proc effect on my druid, but shadowbolt from the Blade of Eternal Darkness crit for 400

not sure how much anyone needs this info, but its kinda odd

 

[Blankets]

Info on Blade of Eternal Darkness is nice, have it on both my 19 and 29.

 

[Blackberryy]

Feels like another weird scaling expansion that will finally make twinks less cookie cutter again. Looks like old 70-79 with raid gear will have a large upper hand though

 

[Warglave]

Did raid gear change? I didn't check that when i was on, it used to be totally unscaled and the worst gear.... along with crafted stuff, i think.

Wont be on for a while, got me curious now lol.

 

[Jointser]

yep raid gear changed too. SWP is now 109 as example

 

[Warglave]

Ummmmm..... not on the PTR. Are we talking about beta now?

edit- not beta either, y'all are on crack.

 

[Jointser]

Yes but only new obtained gear old toons still have gs 33 i don't know if blizz going to fix that

 

[Warglave]

Well doesnt do much for 20-29 unless you can exploit in, is that what page we're all on now?

 

[Jointser]

TOC is the way to go it actually scales up even older gear

 

[Blankets]

Does anyone know what the damage for the ele force enchant is in beta/ptr?

 

[Warglave]

Like 40-49 damage. For some reason boomkins get a much bigger number... might be what's going on with Leek's BoED up above too, dont assume all classes will get that. Not sure if it's going to remain that way or is just a not-yet-fixed bug.

See posts #32-38 for some discussion on ele force: https://xpoff.com/threads/20s-dragonflight-enchants.98584/page-2

Getting the urge to see what's possible with boomkin, ele force, and stuff like https://www.wowhead.com/item=34470/timbals-focusing-crystal?bonus=6710

But of course no Sunfire for level 29 boomkins...so frustrating they stuck it behind 2 points needed talents.

"Check back in 9 months after Blizzard fixes every dumb shit's gear" is what really any of this said.

 

[Blankets]

Yeah, ele force seems simply ok for arcane (unless it can proc off each wave of AM).
