It is though how do you think bwl is harder than mc Ilvl scaling…
Also on the lvl 58 in zg that is lvl scaling not Ilvl scaling if your going to make an argument against me at least comprehend what I’m saying
Just because the next raid is harder does not mean it is “scaling” with ilvl. An increase in difficulty and/or HP for a boss/raid doesn’t mean it is because you have better gear. The idea was that by the team you reached BWL you would have good enough gear to tackle harder mechanics and dmg/HP. I don’t think you understand what ilvl scaling means.

OK a fresh 60, excuse me, I did ZG at 58 so I was using a personal experience lol. Go play classic, run MC once, look at the bosses HP, get some better gear and go back, did that bosses hp go up? Or even better, kill a mob in WPL/EPL at level 60 and do the same thing. Did the hp/dmg of that mob scale up with new gear? That is ilvl scaling…
I can’t tell whats going on in your UI it looks like you’re flying a 747 jumbo jet. Should I be looking at the altimeter or the pounds of fuel remaining?
So agree. Level scaling of ANY kind has no place in World of Warcraft. Ilevel scaling is just an impossible treadmill.

Giving props to you. You’re the first green I’ve seen post that isn’t just straight-up whiteknighting and it’s a relief. There is hope!

This is an amusing statement since it says “WoW Classic” next to your class and race
Yes, classic is it’s own terrible trapped beast. I played it for the first couple months to relive my teenage years and well, the nostalgia goggles wore of quick.
But you’re comparing apples to oranges here. Classic is a finite game, retail is not.

Same shutters different paint. Its not a hard concept.
If there’s any open world item level scaling, it’s not much. I’m 186 and I steamroll WQ mobs.
Haha. Same here. When I got the quest to finally go to Westfall from Elwynn Forest, by the time I walked from Goldshire to Westfall I was like I ain’t doin this garbage again lol.
I don’t know how 17 year old me did it… My patience was like 1/10 what it is now in my 30s and I can barely stand it now lol… Then again, I remember the dialup days and pages taking 60-120 seconds to load fully and somehow I was okay with that at the time. I guess if it’s all you know, you can’t complain, right?

Went to the panda assault to kill the mount rares there. Non-elite 50s in here also have a stupid amount of health - Zan-tien raiders have 20.6k for example. Other mobs, such as silkfeather hawks, have 10k health. Onyx Warserpent (level 50 elite) has 62k health. These are about on par with SL mobs and killing these level 50 mobs are taking just as long as killing SL 60 mobs. Also Ha-Li has 643k health.
ugh, i really hope this isn’t how they measure success, but it certainly feels like ilvl scaling is designed to completely waste peoples time doing your daily chores in the world.

That is ridculous, ilvl scaling shouldn’t be in the game, are the mobs raiding, doing arenas, battle grounds dungeons etc, at the same rate we are seriously what the hell

Well thats fine and dandy, but it should be for higher level content like raiding, and not for open world content. Ilvl scaling has been a cancer in this game since its implementation!
