Item Level Squish in the Shadowlands

Recommended Posts

exsX8Az.jpg

Aside from the upcoming level and stats squish, item levels are going down as well, so we compared item level values from live servers and Shadowlands Alpha.

Live Servers vs Shadowlands Alpha

Characters created through the premade level 50 Shadowlands template start with item level 75 which is approximately item level 406 on live servers.

  • A Vengeance Demon Hunter at level 50 has 16,280 Health, 356 Agility, 814 Stamina, and 290 Armor with the predefined talent build.
  • Switching to Havoc, we have 9,400 Health, 373 Agility, 470 Stamina, and 145 Armor.
  • A Mage has 9,420 Health, 447 Intellect, and 89 Armor at 50 with item level 75 gear.
  • Our level 52 Windwalker Monk that progressed through Bastion has an average item level of 83 and 11,120 Health, 442 Agility, 556 Stamina, and 153 Armor.

We compared the item level values from Ny'alotha and Mythic Season 4 dungeons before and after the squish.

Ny'alotha, the Waking City

Difficulty 8.3 Item Level Shadowlands Alpha Item Level
Raid Finder 430-440 85-95
Normal 445-455 100-110

Mythic 475-485 130-140

Difficulty 8.3 Item Level Shadowlands Alpha Item Level
Normal 400 73
Heroic 415 78
Mythic 430 85
Timewalking 425 34 (likely a bug, should be 81.5)

      Tama's Dragonflight Helper is a Weakaura that displays a weekly to-do list in the game and it's been updated for Dragonflight Season 4!
      The WeakAura is very useful for keeping track of everything in the game at max level. It shows you a to-do list with the weekly tasks, provides you with the locations of rares, super rares, information about your current Renown standing, and more.



      You will find Tama's Dragonflight Helper at wago.io. Please note that you must first download and install WeakAuras 2 to import the string.

      Cataclysm's Grim Batol has been added to the Mythic+ Dungeon rotation in The War Within Season 1, and one boss received a brand new model recently on the Alpha.
      General Umbriss, the first boss of the dungeon, got a shiny new model, which is quite different from his previous one. Below is a screenshot of the old a new model.

      Blizzard have announced that the item level issues with Timewalking Caches have been fixed and that affected players have received main with the replacement Cache.
      Timewalking (Source)
      Hello!
      Earlier this evening, we rolled out a fix-up for players who opened their Timewalking dungeon / Raid cache before 2:30 p.m. PDT today. Affected players have received an in-game mail with the cache replacement.
      Players who opened their cache after 2:30 p.m. PDT today should find that they received the intended reward(s).
      Thank you!

      Blizzard have clarified why players are able to get a full Spark of Awakening through the two available Splinters in the first week of Dragonflight Season 4, and it seems it's only for this week and only due to catch-up rules being enabled! 
      Splintered Spark (Source)
      Just want to confirm this with some details.
      Everyone essentially started Season 4 in catch-up mode. Players were able to get 1 Splintered Spark of Awakening from the weekly quest, whether that’s the weekly “Last Hurrah” quest or the PvP weeklies offered by Malicia.
      And then you’re able to get another splinter / half-spark from any valid catch-up sources, such as Mythic+, Awakened Raids, and PvP wins.
      Next week and thereafter, only one Splintered Spark is obtainable every week. And like Seasons 2 and 3, with the increasing cap on Splintered Sparks per week, and if you ever fall behind you will be able to get Splintered Sparks from any catch-up source.

      It seems there may be an easier way to obtain the Tusks of Mannoroth appearance during the Mists of Pandaria Remix event! 
      The tusks are one of the rarest transmogs in the game currently, even with the recently added Siege of Orgrimmar skip, as their drop rates are VERY low (0.1-0.3%, reportedly). As spotted by MrGM, the new Tusks of Mannoroth are a cosmetic appearance item added in the new limited time event. Now, some have suggested they may just be purchasable from the Bronze vendor (the currency that will drop off of pretty much anything in the event), making them pretty easy to get, but it seems there might be a different way to get them. 
      It's unclear whether the cosmetic will actually be purchasable or if it will drop somewhere else, but another interesting Mannoroth-related item was added as well, the Bones of Mannoroth, which may be related to the cosmetic.

      As you can see the bones are a stackable resource you gain from killing Garrosh, and it's looking like they're a way to guarantee the Tusk appearance with enough kills! Just how many drop is unclear, but assuming you need all 20 for the appearance and that Normal drops 1, Heroic 2 and Mythic 3 bones, it may take at least 7 weeks to get them. Now the number required might be/is likely to be lower than the 20  stack maximum, and we may get more bones per kill.
      But even at 7 weeks it's much, much easier to get than the current "hope for 0.3%" in retail, so it's still a pretty good deal! This may or may not upset players that farmed for the tusks for a long time the regular way, but there's a whole lot players that will be thrilled!
      The Remix: Mists of Pandaria event starts on May 16th and should last until August 19th.
