Lover of life, pvp and consumables! ;)
THIS IS A ROUGH DRAFT BASED ON CURRENT NUMBERS.
PLEASE USE CAUTION AND DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH.
I don't want someone to come nerdrage on the forums or in game or on my stream saying how I am totally stupid and ruined their toons by posting this. So please, don't make me punch myself in the dick or shit purple twinkies. Use your common sense and we all will find our inner peace as we PWN SOME NUBS in SL <3 ( I am sure I will be on the receiving end of that PWN but Im used to it!) This guide is for the people that are gonna carry my ass again, I mean, hey, I need my homies to be geared af so I can send them to the front line as I run away as fast as I can letting them be the sacrifices!! Hello, have we met?
WITH THAT BEING SAID...........
If level 120s are going to become level 50 in Shadowlands then:
50/120=0.41666 or 41.666% scaling reduction
Some of the numbers don't seem to add up but I went way past the decimal,
as in the case of level 10 in SL needing to be level 24.000 now.
10/41.666%=24.0003840061441
So technically, a 0/49,540 XP level 24 should become level 10 in SL
... - - - ... BUT ... - - - ...
If you take just the first 3 after the decimal you get :
24.000*41.666% you get 9.99984 hence NOT level 10
This explains showing level 10 in SL needing to be level 24.000 but (20/49,540) XP needed now to be at the beginning of level 10 in SL.
49,540xp*.0003840061441=19.023664378714xp, I rounded to 20 to be safe.
I just don't want someone to follow this and gear their toon out and end up
as a level 9 in SL and have to regear their toon. (ASSUMING THIS MATH
IS HOW THEY ARE GOING TO FIGURE LEVELS OUT)
The reason I say lock xp at the beginning of the target level is because that gives you room to breathe if you want to try some xp on stuff later without risking punching one mob and dinging.
To get to target XP, when you get fairly close to it, use the xp reduction debuff from having someone in party with locked xp (make sure they are within range in the same zone to have the debuff on without a timer) or removing heirlooms or killing mobs 5-9 levels lower than you if you can bypass the zone scaling (ie. a lvl 24 killing in the 1-20 zones) etc etc to really nail it down to the sweet spot of your target XP.
NOW, on to the business at hand... not that business you pervs! Get your game face on! Hand off the joystick and back on the keyboard! I know we are all excited for what may come in SL but come on , contain yourselves!
================================================
Column 1 is for GEAR ONLY and shows, that if they are going to round gear to the nearest level and someone wanted to pre buy or grind the appropriate gear for SL levels, then it assumes:
level 23-25 gear in BFA will become level 10 gear in SL.
23*41.666%=9.58318 ~ 10 (if rounding <>50%)
25*41.666%=10.4165 ~ 10 so all gear now Level ( NOT IL but REQUIRED LEVEL) 23-25 should scale to Level 10 in SL. (again assuming this is the method they will use)
IF they scale anything over .0 to the next level and only round up then this will change of course so keep up with the changes as you see them posted by the community as time gets closer.
ALSO, if they decide to level gear according to Item Level, like Item level 27-44 will be level 30, then column 1 is of course useless, just as this whole guide may indeed become, as things get revealed.
Please remember, THIS IS JUST A PRE THEORYCRAFTING GUIDE FOR IDEAS. NONE OF THIS IS BASED ON LEGITIMATE INFORMATION GATHERED FROM A BLIZZARD INSIDER, IT IS ALL PURELY GUESSWORK OF MINE <3
================================================
Column 2 goes hand in hand with the 3rd, 4th and 5th for cross-referencing.
Use the 2nd column to choose your desired level in SL and the 4th column to assist with what level you need to be now to get to the column 2 target.
So, in the (SLa) colum if your toon is 20 now in BFA and you don't change anything then it will become (in SLb) a level 4 toon.
===============================================
If you want to use (SLa) to figure out desired level in SL then reference it with column 4 (N2BN) as a guide to level your toon to now and gear up if you desire.
A) To see what level you need to be now for a certain level in SL, DIVIDE level by 41.666%
ie: 49 in SL will have to be 49/41.666%=level 117.6018816301061 now.
just use the decimal and beyond for figuring out the xp into level 117 needed. In this example it would be the .6018816301061
Then cross-reference with this chart to get the XP needed to make sure you hit target level of 49 in SL by looking at current needed level xp ie: 117-118 on the google docs chart linked below.
MAKE SURE YOU LOOK AT THE 8.1 COLUMN for the XP number.

Then multiply the appropriate level XP max number, in this case level 117-118 = 872,550xp by the numbers after the level in solution A) , in this case .6018816301061 and round the answer up.
So 872,550*.6018816301061=525,171.81 ~525,172 xp into level 117 now, is your MINIMUM xp target to be level 49 in SL.
================================================
If you want to see what level you will be in SL if you dont level, simply MULTIPLY your current level by 41.666% Example. you are Level 69 now. 69*41.666%=28.749574 or approximately 3/4 of the way through level 28 in SL.
================================================
FOR THE RECORD!!!
I DO NOT RECOMMEND LEVELING ANY CURRENT TWINKS.
PLEASE USE CAUTION LEVELING ANY TWINKS.
I RECOMMEND MAKING A NEW TOON, LEVELING IT TO TARGET AND GEARING IT.
