Uh oh, looks like we're on the radar

This seems to be gaining traction on the WoW subreddit:

Level 10 Player with a weird tree pet one-shotting

Alright, which one of you guys did it?

Twinks really are their own worse enemies.

Loads of people (myself included) have obtained unscaled items which results in damage like this at lower levels. Blizz reacts and slowly starts fixing them as we have witnessed. At the same time they'll look into how low levels scaling works and starts to fix that, they could end up with a double blow here having the gear fixed/unusable AND a scaling nerf that will affect all low levels regardless of gear.

And we here at xp off will find a way to break it come that point.

I fucking love that lol.

Well, the problem exist anyway; the main concern here: Blizz will not "work" on it - they'll just slap some sloppy patches with a white stitches, like they did with 44ilvl items, and its completely understandable due to SL delay situation, but still feels shitty

 

[Daltert Moropi]

Lol, as long as we can find these items, they’ll complain about those said items.

Problem is though, these items are “obtainable for everyone” and some people are just lazy to find them.

It's not the items. It's the damage scaling.

 

[Shadevoid]

I didn't say that I do not like all that stats - but it didn't make me blind either.
Talking about 44ilvl items, I didn't mean, that Blizz just miss some pieces; no, they made reward for special rares (which suppose to be higher that usual ilvl at Draenor times) similar to fluffing quest reward. Exactly cuz they dont even wanna to spent any time to a huge change (lvl squish), that touches all existing content. Just roughy concrete all the gaps afterwards.

And yes, I'm aware that it was simply pointless whiny complaints)

 

[CIHC]

Looks like the Teldrassil was tired of waiting for justice.

 

[Chops]

Twinks have always been on the radar, folks. And there's always been busted stuff in pre-patches and xpac launches. Its a huge game with tons of moving parts. Obviously, things will fall through the cracks, especially when its some weird niche shit that only twinks are gonna notice. How long does the typical player stay at lvl 10? lvl 20? minutes, at most. So its no surprise that scaling and items at these levels are often overlooked and/or low priority. Because the immediate, effective solution to most of this stuff is "level up". And anything theyve nerfed so far is them swatting flies while they work on larger endgame issues.

 

[Asylum]

i mean... they did give us NPCs who to turn off XP. why would they forget we exist?

Main problem if all this will get fixed the bracket will become even more bursty because of all that socket gear with mainstat and no stamina.

 

[DeLindsay]

Am I the only one that wants that fucking Tree as a Pet???

Guess it’s a good thing I’m farming other items now, Like the adapt cloak I got from a dinosaur as of recently.

 

[ImmahBon]

So what is that tree thing?

 

[zazzyfraz]

https://www.wowhead.com/item=140231/narcissas-mirror + https://www.wowhead.com/item=127838/sylvan-elixir is the tree pet i think. or some other thing to turn into a tree

Not a problem. Smaller health pools with more main stat is far better. All great players will agree.

Thats the same dude who has been spamming threads and posts with alternative characters for days now on this subject in the bug forums, we have been talking about this on the prepatch list pinned thread as well.
[doublepost=1603754257,1603754065][/doublepost]its a good thing that they didn't get the gear on that video, you can tell he was using high ilvl gear by his hp. Gotta be careful about soloing dungeons at lvl 10 in random groups heh, you use equipment manager to swap gear quickly.
They also found his armory in the comments, and asked about the ilvl 50 gear. Not as many views but man its gonna get changed soon probably. Oh no nvm they are specifically stating stuff on how to do it in the comments, yeah I don't see this staying around for much longer.

Just keep flagging his Threads.
