Heirloom Upgrade Token Prices Reduced in Patch 8.1.5

Recommended Posts

ENwTPvr.jpg

In this week's 8.1.5 PTR Build 29281, Blizzard reduced the price of all Heirlooms upgrade tokens.

New tokens can be purchased in Patch 8.1.5 that upgrade Heirlooms to scale to level 120. The introductory gold cost was 15,000 Gold for Battle-Hardened Heirloom Armor Casing Battle-Hardened Heirloom Armor Casing and 22,500 Gold for the weapon token (Battle-Hardened Heirloom Scabbard Battle-Hardened Heirloom Scabbard), but this week, the gold price of all upgrade tokens went down across the board.

Here's the new gold cost of Heirloom tokens in Patch 8.1.5:

In the most-recent new build on the PTR (that was deployed yesterday), the prices of the upgrade tokens were adjusted. They should now be:

Tier Armor Weapon
90 500 Gold 1,000 Gold 750 1,200 Gold
100 1,000 2,000 Gold 1,500 5,000 Gold
110 2,000 5,000 Gold 3,000 7,500 Gold
120 [New in 8.1.5] 5,000 Gold 7,500 Gold

Another quality-of-life improvement is coming to alt gearing in Patch 8.1.5, as new tokens will drop from Island Expeditions. Check out our Patch 8.1.5 hub for more details about the patch!

Hoh boy, this is a much needed change.

As mentioned on the token reveal for upgrading to 120 post. This one right here. I mentioned that the total cost would sit around the 77700 cost for a 'full set'

13700 alone for one weapon, one-handed or two-handed. --> Will be reduced to 12750

Neck, helmet, cloak, chest and legs are 40000 --> Will be 'reduced' to 42500(*)

Off-hands/shields/trinkets/rings, basically everything but weapon. Will also be from 8000 --> to now 8500 for a full upgrade from 60 to 120

A full efficient set of heirlooms for the leveling crazed alt-o-holic. Counting both rings, two unique trinkets and an off-hand/shield.

Will now range from previously 93700 gold 60-110, to now a whole new cost of  72250 for a 60-120 set

(*) Since previous upgraded to 110 and this will be 120 now.  Hence the reduction.

Honestly they need to introduce a 'max level' upgrade item, it can even be more expensive than the other, because holy hell is it tedious to upgrade a set that hasn't been upgraded for a while.

Wouldn't be a bad idea considering they are adding more allied races with heritage gear, and I would suspect they continue that trend on. Though I'd personally enjoy a full two races. One for each faction once again like the worgen and goblins.

Or at least that they skip a few steps. Perhaps a 60 to 90 and 90 to 120.

This is great news for folks like me who have only recently returned to the game, in that switching to a new main will not require nearly as much downtime to "catch up" the old fashioned way.

Is that tedium a 'necessary evil' to ensure that content leading up to the 'max ilevel' does not become obsolete as soon as someone has completed it?

Blizzard seems to want to provide a million different paths to the same endgame, but each path still has work required to walk it.

      Executive Producer Holly Longdale teased some upcoming experimental PvE-focused content that Blizzard will soon reveal to the community.
      It appears that Plunderstorm isn't the only new mode Blizzard plans to add to WoW this year.
      Holly Longdale today teased an upcoming PvE-oriented event that will soon be revealed to us. Holly might be talking about the "Timerunning Pandamonium," expected in Patch 10.2.7.

      Greetings Citizens of Azeroth,
      It’s been great seeing so many players taking the plunge into Plunderstorm and we’ve loved seeing all of the stories and feedback as this experimental event evolves. It will be exciting to see some of the community content creators going head-to-head as duos during the Plunderstorm Creator Royale on March 30!  This isn’t the end of the things we want to try in World of Warcraft, however, and we have more in store we can’t wait to show you.
      Dragonflight Season 4 is in route as testing begins on the PTR and we’ll have more news to share soon™ on the next experiment we have up our sleeves. We hope those of you who are looking for PvE focused content will enjoy what we’re planning, all while we continue to press forward on development of our next expansion for World of Warcraft— The War Within.
      We can’t wait to share with you all the many things the team has been hard at work on.
      With gratitude and excitement for what we’ll do together next,
      Holly Longdale

      We've looked at the Mythic+ Tier List for the first time in Patch 10.2.6!
      DISCLAIMER
      The following post is based on data from U.GG. Therefore, the data presented here may differ from Petko's Mythic Tier Lists maintained on our site.
      How the Data is Calculated
      U.GG's tier list is created by evaluating damage and healing scores from the very best players and factoring in the frequency of each spec's appearances in the highest rankings of the current Mythic+ season. The tier list of each spec is determined by its effectiveness and prevalence at the highest levels of Mythic+ play.

      Dragonflight Season 4 adds a new world quest for Spark of Awakening.
      To get your Spark of Awakening, you must complete a different quest every week.
      The weekly quest is available from Therazal in central Valdrakken. There are 3 options, but only one is active every week, similar to how Awakened raids rotate.

      Dragon Isles Quest
      Participate in a Community Feast Participate in a Hunt Lay siege to Dragonbane Keep Zaralek Cavern Quest
      Protect the Researchers Under Fire Loot a Secured Shipment (Suffusion Camp) Complete a Time Rift Amirdrassil Quest
      Earn 50 Bloom during the Superbloom Complete a Superbloom Plant 3 Dreamseeds Quest Rewards
      Completing any of the 3 quests above grants the Season 4 spark fragment (Splintered Spark of Awakening) via Weekly Awakened Activity and a Cache of Awakened Storms.
      You will need two Splintered Spark of Awakening and 250 Flightstones to create one Spark of Awakening.
