Stupid but important ...

So it's probably stupid to ask, as i bet i'm overthinking this alot but it will save me a TON of time and effort if i'm not overthinking

as far as BV scaling, is 10 vs 14 outside the bg different?

what i mean is:

if i have a 10 and a 14 in the exact same gear, will they scale or w/e differently once i join the bg?

example: my 10 when in a bg has 35% crit with _____ items equipped

if i have a 14 wearing the same ______ will it be the exact same when inside a bg?


if so, i might have a secret amazing thing for when our bgs start popping :).

Thanks in advance, hoefully i clarified it enough

ps quick answer would be helpfull so i can get started asap
 
10-13 scale to lvl 14, gear on a lvl 14 remains the same

so theoretically ,

13 vs 14

exact same gear again

100% cloned characters, just one says "13" outside the bg and one says "14" outside the bg

their would in fact be a difference between them inside a bg

Edit: because that would be an option too, if this is how it works would i be better off stopping at 13? the items themselves i might gain at 14 wont matter at all if stats or w/e scales
 
In a BG you'd scale to 14. All your secondary stats (crit, hit, haste) will scale down significantly for your level 10 outside a BG to level 14 scaling inside a BG.

My ~120% crit chance level 10 hunter drops to around 74% crit in BGs.

edit: Only BOA gear scales inside a BG. A quest item (like a belt) you picked up at level 9 will stay the same even if you wear it at level 90.

False, not only BoA items scale in bg's.

If you were to use the EXACT same gear on a 10, you would benefit more from it than if you were to use it on a 14.
 
That has to be a glitch. Nothing in Wowhead says that The 1 Ring scales with level. That's a heirloom-specific trait, and The 1 Ring isn't. I've had over a dozen twinks with that ring, and it's stats have never changed when I've decided to twink them at a higher level. (though I admit I haven't had one since this whole "scaling in a bg" thing was implemented.)

Also, if it's not a glitch, show that some other pieces of non-BoA gear do the same.

Scaling is made at lvl 10-13 to make non loomed player/starters able to survive and do damage even if they dont got gear. The scaling is made by Blizzard. Not a glitch, and its not only happening at lvl 10-13 its at 15-18 etc...etc...
