Ok guys, this shit just happened to me today and figured out a workaround so just registered to tell you how to fix it.
So the problem is that
the second skip into the shadowlands borks your character drops.
So how do we solve this?
- First, you need to make another level 10/11, pick Shadowlands from Chromie, go to Shadowlands, skip the first part ( Maw ), and then do the boring lap around Oribos and follow the questline until you are sent to Bastion ( this will be the unborked character ).
- Now you party with this new character, that will be able to loot the ilvl 30 ring version, and then trade it to the screwed character ( main twink ).
The problem now is that as two level 11 characters there is no legacy loot enabled. So how do we solve this? We need a third character, but we dont want a third account right?
- We log into the twink, this will be the group leader, and get in Necrotic Wake, this one will reset the dungeon aswell. We log on the second level 11, group up and get in the dungeon, and then log out. We change characters ( from the new 11 ) to the main ( level 80 ) join the group and get in the dungeon. This enables legacy loot.
- Finally we now we log out the main, change characters to the new level 11 and clear the boss.
Having to log in and out and reset and repeat the process is a pain in the ass. But atleast we can unbork the characters now.
TLDR; Main character enables legacy loot even if disconnected, the new level 11 can loot the proper version of the ring and trade it to the borked twink.
Happy new years
