7.2.5 Legendary Item Upgrade Clarification

Recommended Posts

21777-silence-penalty-coming-to-wow.jpg

Build 24218 added new emissary caches, so it's safe to assume that you shouldn't be stockpiling 7.2 caches in false hope of seeing 7.2.5 Legendary items drop from them after the patch's live.

Here's a list of all caches that will drop new 7.2.5 Legendary items. 7.2.5 Legendary items will start dropping at item level 940 on patch day and only new caches earned after the Tomb opens have the chance to reward an item level 970 Legendary.

Old caches have different IDs and loot options, e.g. Valarjar StrongboxValarjar Strongbox vs Valarjar StrongboxValarjar Strongbox.

After the Tomb's live and you own at least one Legendary item, you will find a new quest in Dalaran to get Stabilized Titan EssenceStabilized Titan Essence and upgrade existing Legendary items from 940 to 970. 

The quest involves collecting 50 Writhing EssenceWrithing Essences that will likely drop from

  • Tomb of Sargeras Raid Bosses
  • Weekly Mythic Keystone Cache
  • Emissary Bags
  • PvP Weekly Quests

7.2.5 Legendary items won't drop from Relinquished tokens.

They've done a very good job, imo, of keeping older content at least somewhat relevant.

Agree. I finally have concordance and planned on taking it easy, when it comes to world quests, but am going to have to complete emissaries to get my legos upgraded now. Same old grindstone.

You don't get something for nothing in the real world, why should you in Azeroth. If you have that much of an issue with it, don't do it!

It's okay that we have to do something 4 it. Otherwise there would be an ilvl-boost instantly, this would not be incentive at all.

I don't mind having to upgrade one or two. But I have 14 across my characters at the moment, 10 on the main two characters I play, all to be upgraded... since they upped the drop rate of legends, it's kind of made it an issue... and devaluing them further in my eyes

Surely you don't have to upgrade every legendary immediately? As far as I'm aware, almost every spec has BiS legendaries, so you can always focus on them first?

Even with different legendaries being used for different fights, you'll still likely use 1 constantly and swap another. It's also forcing you to make choices based on what you feel will perform best etc.

Given "Legionfall RecompenseLegionfall Recompense // Legionfall ChestLegionfall Chest" are on the list for legos I hope they are on the list for the upgrade questline so  I plan on having 1500 Legionfall War Supplies 'stashed' ready for the quest.

1000 in bags, and 500 in a completed mission on the soon to be finished CC (US).

Those + hopefully the M+ cache which I'll open after getting the quest should get me damn close to 50 on day 1.

You're far better prepared than I am :p

Good luck with opening everything!

      We have another triple entry in the hotfix ledger, as Radiant Echoes gets more improvements in retail, while Season of Discovery and Cata Classic get additional class changes.
       August 7  (Source)
      Player-characters
      Steady Flight should no longer be removed after entering an Arena. Quests
      We tuned up the Prototype Shredder MK-03 so that “Eye for an Eye” can be completed. Radiant Echoes Event
      Increased Flightstone and upgrade Crest drop rates in the event. Reduced the HP scaling on all event bosses so that they should be killable in a more-reasonable timeframe. Developers’ notes: This includes both ‘minibosses’ (e.g. Hogger, Thorim) and final bosses (e.g. Remembered Onyxia, Ragnaros). Season of Discovery
      Hunter Heart of the Lion once again has a 100 yard range. Warrior The Focused Rage rune will now correctly reduce the cost of Meathook by 3. Cataclysm Classic
      Fixed an issue where Faerie Fire did not deal intended amounts of threat when used on NPCs targeting another unit.

      Due to a bug introduced with the War Within pre-patch, some players are receiving item level 250 gear from the weekly cache.
      We've seen numerous reports on Reddit and the official forums that the Last Hurrah weekly quest on live servers drop low-level gear for some players. Apparently, the bug was first introduced with the War Within pre-patch two weeks ago and still hasn't been fixed.
      Here's an example of a low item level drop from the Cache of Awakened Treasures by Omnifox.

      Week 2 brings quite a few changes, as Hunters in particular rise up, while Shadow has a really bad time. The top 3 remains the same and very consistent, so let's jump in and see what's going on.
      Warcraft Logs Points
      The below logs are based on POINTS, and not actual damage or healing, meaning they log the timed completion for the specs, with higher keys getting more points, obviously. The time in which the dungeon is completed is also a factor, but a much, much smaller one, as it grants very few points if you do it significantly faster than just any in-time completion. We're also using the Normalized Aggregate Scores numbers, for clarity, meaning the top spec is marked as 100 and then the rest are ranked in relation to that peak point.
      All Keys
      95th percentile DPS
      The top 3 remains quite stable with the Evoker-Paladin-Warrior trio reigning supreme. We see the first change of the week right after that though, as Frost DK continues its upward march in dungeons as well as in raids, taking 4th from Elemental. Both DKs are on the rise, as Unholy also moves a spot up, taking advantage of Shadow's precipitous 5-spot fall to the bottom of the top 10. Arms remains stable as two Hunters burst in, Beast Mastery taking 8th and Marksmanship 9th, as Frost Mage disappears down towards the bottom. Speaking of the bottom, Devastation gets some new roommates there, as Outlaw and Destruction fall and give Enhancement and Feral a break.

      Mythic+ All Keys 95th Percentile Data by Warcraft Logs.
      All Percentiles
      As with the top percentiles, the top 3 remains solid, but 4th is immediately changed, thanks to Shadow's massive drop in performance this week. The Priest loses even more ground here, falling 9 spots into 13th, opening 4th up for Arms. Beast Mastery moves even higher here, grabbing 5th and moving in front of Elemental and Frost DK, as Marksmanship brings up the rear and completes the Hunter sandwich in 8th. Affliction breaks into the top 10, just ahead of Unholy which dropped to the final spot.

      Mythic+ All Keys All Percentile Data by Warcraft Logs.
      Raw DPS U.GG DPS Rankings
      U.gg's rankings are based on actual DPS taken from Warcraft Logs data, focusing on the top players and span the past two weeks.
      Frost DK finds itself on top in the raw DPS rankings, as Augmentation isn't calculated properly here. Fury and Arms grab the next two spots, moving ahead of Ret, and the Fyr'alath wins continue in 5th, where Unholy finished the legendary axe streak. Even Survival joins the Hunter good times in 8th, where all three specs gather, just ahead of Balance who closes out the top 10.
      Mythic+ All Keystone DPS rankings by u.gg.
       
       
      For even more in-depth data for each individual key head on over to Warcraft Logs. And if you're interested in more info on the specs themselves you can always check out our class guides (updated for the pre-patch), as well as our Mythic+ guides and Mythic+ tier list.

      MoP Remix characters that will transfer over to retail will receive a gear boost!
      With Patch 11.0.2 now live on Public Test Realms, you can copy over MoP Remix characters from retail! It appears all MoP Remix characters will receive a character boost so you can dive straight into action when the War Within expansion launches.

      We can't unfortunately log in to the game with the MoP Remix char on the PTR so we can't confirm the Item Level of gear for max level characters. However, keep in mind that the gear boost will scale with your level, so if you're below max cap, you will receive gear appropriate to your current level.
      When Can We Expect MoP Remix Characters to Transfer to Retail?
      MoP Remix ends on August 19, so we assume the characters will need to be transferred to retail by August 22 when Early Access begins.
