MoP Remix Gear Upgrade Transfers: Unlock Crest-Free Upgrades on Retail Servers Now!

Stan's Avatar by Stan

Max-level gear from MoP Remix now gets a free pass on crests for catch-up upgrades on retail servers—discover how to make the most of it!

Great news for those who’ve invested time in MoP Remix! If you’ve pushed your gear to the max, you’ll be thrilled to know that when transferring to live servers, you can upgrade your pre-patch event catch-up gear without the need for crests—only Flightstones are required.

This offers a significant advantage, though details are still emerging.

What Gear Qualifies for Crest-Free Upgrades?

So far, it appears that this benefit might only cover catch-up gear, as Raid Finder gear still demands crests for further upgrades.

Player Reports and Item Level Thresholds

One player, who achieved item level 550, reported that upgrading their gear slots on live servers didn’t cost any crests. If you’ve also reached this level in MoP Remix, expect a similar discount. However, it’s important to note that items like rings, trinkets, and necklaces, which weren’t upgradable in MoP Remix, will still need crests on retail servers.

Previously leveled gear slots in Remix don’t require crests to level in retail!
