Heroic Dungeon ilevel requirement is 567 but Normal Dungeons only drop 554 LOL

How does this make any sense? Heroic Dungeon requirement is 567 but Normal Dungeons only drop 554… How else am I supposed to gear up to get into heroic dungeons? LOL. World quests? And only then I’d have to wait for them to provide a higher ilevel? Yeah. You guys didn’t think this through.

Yeah, I have this problem as well, last week wasn’t a problem, heroics dropped 571 and were available immediately at 80.

Did they just change the ilvl requirement for heroics? Because this doesn’t sound right.

yeah to 567 same as LFR

its a consequence of them making heroics m0 from s3

Oh my… yeah that’s a rubbish change for sure, the content is easy enough to do at quest green 540ish level lol.

Yeah they made the change with the season 1 they implemented on Tuesday. On Friday I was able to run heroics on this toon but now I can’t and I can’t get any other gear to get me high enough ilevel to get into there so I’m stuck. LOL. This has never happened to me in the history of my time playing this game.

Doesn’t effect me at all but it seems kind of weird not having normal gear ilvl being the key to unlock access to heroic.

Either lower heroic requirements or buff normal ilvl.

Sure you can just get rep gear/crafted gear/world quest gear to reach the needed ilvl, but it’s kind of strange to have a gap in progression like that.

Hey it’s you again! Lol. Hi! yeah so like I like keeping my money not spending it. Scrooooooooooooooooooooge LOL

And that’s fine. if you make a group and fly to the portal and zone in, you can do the heroic.

you just cant queue for it.

week 1 of cataclysm I was doing heroics like 25 ilvls below queue requirement with my guild.

I think I just figured out why. Progressing through delves gives you currency to buy ilevel 580 BOA gear so they’re forcing us to do delves.

Valor stones exist.

did you buy all the rep rewards from the quartermasters too? some are epic high ilvl items.

Gear from normal dungeons isn’t upgradeable.

Forcing people into grinding limited WQs and into delves (which were never intended to be mandatory), or into spending an asinine amount of gold on crafted items for all their toons…just to get into heroic dungeon finder is certifiably absurd.

There’s a reason half the people running into this immediately default into thinking it’s a bug.

there’s BoE blues on the AH for good prices.

You can buy a full set of 564s and two 577 trinkets immediately when you hit 80 for pretty dang cheap.

Do that nd you’re probably already there.

I went to go play an alt that’s done a bunch of heroics, and I can’t queue because my ilvl is too low. World quests don’t even drop high enough ilvl for me to get into heroics again.

Kind of ridiculous.

hand him warband gear.

I never bought a boe to get into heroics lol. This is silly, buff normal dungeon gear if this is intended.
