Rare mobs drop unscaled i25 greens

[SPQR]

It seems among all broken things with 8.0 the drop of old unscaled i25 greens is one of them.
At the moment you are able to loot both scaled and unscaled versions of items from all rare mobs.

Strong addition to those in need of gear.
unlikely to be intended as they are better than dungeon blues in ways.

I'm been rare farming, I'm seeing it vary. In a 35-60 zone and all my loot ranges from 29-45 so far.

I've only killed a few rares, the stuff I got wasn't scaled to my level but it still had an appropriate level req to wear for the ilvl

Not quite sure i understand this right; If i go to e.g. Eastern Plagueland on my level 29 and kill a rare mob there. then it has a chance to give me an item which was meant to be for level 40?

No there are limits, no loot from a skull mob (10+). If you are 20 the best you can do is a 25-60 zone, I think Stonetalon is, might be more.

29 can do WPL (35-60) but there's not a single plate drop from what I can tell. They all start at 40. Looking at loot tables for EPL mobs, no plate. EPL is 40+ if you get loot though let me know.

I decided to test this out on my 19 rogue in Duskwood/N.Stranglethorn/Elwynn and nothing scaled up or down (although the stats are similar in the first place so maybe i'm imagining it). Maybe it only works after lvl 20?

The only thing I found worth noting however is that the secondary stats on gear your level e.g. 19 for me, while not being able to be higher than blues, can be the same as blues but with different combinations (primary stats stay the same). So if you want to stack versatility you could probably find gear that fits the secondary stats you want perfectly without losing stats. I understand this is 20-29 and not 10-19 but I assume it works the same.
