Guest MrNew Report post Posted October 27, 2021 Hey! Great guide, but there is one thing I still don't understand. Let's say an item drops at 530 GS. Does that mean the watermark for that gear in your slot is now 530? Or is it capped to only increase in increments of 5 in the lower watermark levels?

Bigbearqt 0 Report post Posted October 28, 2021 Yes, if you get a drop at 530 GS then your HWM is now 530 for that slot. The only exception to this rule is that some named items have fixed gearscores, and this would not count towards your HWM. Remember, your HWM also cannot go higher than 590. 15 hours ago, Guest MrNew said: Hey! Great guide, but there is one thing I still don't understand. Let's say an item drops at 530 GS.

Guest OldManClone Report post Posted December 12, 2021 Correction to the HWM system notes that are listed... Named items do NOT increase your watermark. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This isn't right. Think about Dungeon drops - these are named items which drop at or above your watermark. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
