PTR - 50 ilvl legion gear & wod gear changed.

That's easy, DON'T focus on extra high iLvL Gear, DO focus on things that are within the norm for your Twink's Character Level. For example 10's, it's TBC Socket Gear. Hell for 20's it's still TBC Socket Gear in many cases. My 30 (old 70) several pcs of TBC Socket Gear are superior to the Raid Gear through ICC Heroic.

Well I'm focusing on my hunter atm, so I'm trying to stack mastery. So legion greens with socket are bis for me mostly.
 
I'm really just ready for them to nerf things so I can decide what to focus on lol

Truly is annoying to adjust BIS gear every 2 weeks...

The nice thing about twinking is that BiS usually lasts you for an entire expansion. Makes playing more enjoyable as you can focus on playing rather than farming. Sure you might have to update 1 or 2 pieces with some new patch additions, but doesnt take a lot of effort.

This pre patch has proven to be very annoying as with ongoing nerfs you have to change over 80% of your equipment. Cant wait for the nerfs to stop to be finally able to get an accurate BIS list...

In this im completely agree with this gentleman.;)
But I think the main nerfs have already ended, now all sorts of little things will be fixed, as talasite.
So in general bis lists are already understandable, with the exception of specializations highly dependent on mastery. But even there, almost everything is clear.

Honestly with what already got nerfed... you either have the i60 hat or you don't (and confident that is going to get chopped)... you either have the +16 super artifact weapons or you don't (this will most likely not get chopped as Blizzard does not really have a way to fix it)... you can try for any new shoulders that are higher iLevel, but they are just gonna get chopped as well... the rest is "BFA close"... just get the i28 greens with Gem Slots with Mastery and Versatility and Gem for stam/whatever so you don't get killed. If you are playing glass cannon, then just gem main stat/mastery and spray/pray.

Getting way too complicated. Don't just wait to get your greens with sockets cause the price is only going to go up. If you are farming greens you should be consistently making 600k a piece in the AH on of the Harmonious with a gem slot. While people are greatly over exaggerating the "one shot" bull shit with the removal of the pillar gear... not being dead is just as important as it ever was.

BC Gem gear is not BiS maybe one or two pieces are... but honestly giving up a piece with Mastery/Versatilty and one Gem slot so you can take some Turd BC boots with dodge or +3 crit only as a secondary stat and gem 3 slots is just a bad idea.

But, as usual everybody has an opinion.

Come on over to BH where people have cash I guess, its straight up bank time. Harmonious with a slot is not just dropping every 3rd mob.

Not to mention if you are Harmonious with a Slot and + 4 Speed... get out of here, retirement time.

Also have to remember there is a much larger amount of people that are going to twink that have not read/even bothered with any of this bull shit yet/ know this website exists (you are dealing with a TINY fraction of the twinking community here)... those are people with money that buy the "easy greens".

I’ve bought almost a full set of socket greens for my vet, many with tertiary procs, and only one piece has cost more than 1k

600k is “ill farm it myself” prices

You got lucky then or its just your server or you have rando pieces like peerless/ferverflare... that stuff is junk.
 
i wouldnt call crawling various realms AHs for a few days “luck” but ok

Well if you were using various AHs you still had to consolidate them one way or another, that was not free. Sure, 600k is bonkers for something that might not even be TRUE BiS, but still its a lazymans game.

like you said earlier, this is a small community. Very few people have picked up on ilvl 28 greens being desirable. Hit those mid sized servers with no twinks and you too can find socketed harmonious bracers for 75 gold ;)

sure I’ll probably eventually spend $60 getting it all to my server but bringing mats over for the guild too makes it worth it. Certainly not $80 per piece. Good god why do any of yall play on BH?

Playing on BH won't be the only bad decision I make this year :p I'll have to think about setting up my own "Chops inter-server distribution network".
 
Imagine being a vet and buying your gear tho lmao, that feels so boring
I rather farm mine and feel like I earned it

I guess. Like, I dont mind paying for things but eventually you gotta just look at 3 tertiary stat and go "meh"
though, im also too stupid to play the AH well so maybe thats just not that big of a deal to smarter people.

A lot of the time, especially in early xpac, people have no idea what they have and sell way below what market value would support 2-3 months in. Just takes a bit of patience and luck waiting on people's mistakes in the AH game. With regards to niche greens like we're farming, most levelers won't give these pieces a second look and you'll see tertiary + gem pieces go up for nill.

If you find the right flip you can 100x overnight.
