Twink Newbie need guidance!

Hey guys

Got a bit bored at endgame and just heard that twinking is back in BFA and I am pretty excited to try it out again. My only issue is that I am not sure which bracket to go for, so my questions are:

Are there any brackets where legendaries or raid gear are bis? Like how does a 60 with thunderfury fare or a 70 with glaives etc. and are epics like core hound tooth and shit ever useful?

What brackets would you recommend and what is the big differences between twinking as 60 and 59, or 70 and 69 etc.

I would really love a bracket where actual raid gear was bis or at least some of it but I am open to any suggestions, would love to hear your recommendations and why.

Thanks guys.
 
You wrote this in the 50-59 section.
The big difference between 59 and 60 is the bg brackets they play in. 59s play vs 50-59 and 60 vs 60-69.
Anyway, seems like you would be interested in the 80 bracket, you should go check that out. :)
 
I can't speak entirely to 70 but I believe they have some raid gear that is BiS. 60 has very very few items from Raids that are definitively BiS. Like maybe one slot, with a couple others that are interchangeable, varies by spec/armor class obviously.

This is because of dungeon scaling which provides huge tables of loot that can be level appropriate stat wise now. 59 and 60s get to take the best of all classic dungeons as well as a couple TBC and a couple WOTLK dungeons. Thunderfury is usable at 60 but Sulfuras is terrible. Again, not sure about 70s.


Generally I think the higher bracket you are in the more raid gear is utilized.



The major difference between 59 and 60 is that 60s get the fourth talent row which changes things quite a lot for some specs, not at all for others.

so as a lvl80 twink I get to use a lot of raid gear? but wouldn't I have a major disadvantage as 80 in the 80-89 bracket? Also, how is the 70 bracket, more nostalgia in it for me with 60 and 70 raid gear :p

So if I make a 60 rogue, thunderfury would be bis? and what about the warglaives? :)

What classes use a lot of raid stuff on 60 and 70? and how bad is it to play as 60 or 70 compared to 59 and 69?

Level 70 BiS is almost entirely raid gear. Glaives aren't BiS in PVP and thunderfury iirc is 100% trash for 60s.
Here is an armory thread for level 70 twinks: https://xpoff.com/threads/70-armory...oons-are-on-here-if-not-please-comment.72209/
that should give you a good idea of what kind of gear people are using
