My character BoldKen on Maelstrom is a lvl 60 warrior. I’m trying to complete some of the Kul Tiras quests still in my quest log, but all the Kul Tiras mobs are coming up as lvl 60. Shouldn’t Kul Tiras mobs still be at lvl 50?

I could be wrong, but I was told that stuff was scaled up to 60 in older content in preparation for Dragonflight.

BfA now scales to 60 as was a necessary change since that’s the expansion new players are ushered towards

Hmmm. Legion mobs on Broken Isles are still lvl 45.
I believe all bfa content should be at 60 in preparation for dragonflight, but island expeditions are at lvl 50, but likely everything in BFA is up to 60, like Polyhedra said
Well, THAT would have been nice to know before I dropped onto a bunch of naga and got my butt handed to me, when I THOUGHT it would be an easy fight.

BFA scales to 60 because it is the “starting experience” for new accounts. The other is still what it was (outside Chromie time) because it is not for new characters. 
Was that documented anywhere where the average user might have seen it? Because this was a total surprise to me today. I have Dragonflight, and I’ve been playing since Cata.
Was in the pre-patch notes I believe.
I think it was implied in the patch notes but not outright said. Patch notes as of late have unfortunately been lacking with lots of undocumented changes
LOL yeah I dropped onto one of the purple world quest weekly rares that i have been able to solo for awhile and suddenly it was feign death time…

As BfA is the default, without Chromie time, leveling path for new players, yes it now scales to lvl 60
The whole situation reminds me of a scene in the movie Aladdin were the monkey jumps out at a bunch of guards with a sword then had to run. Lol
Having now read the pre-patch notes,
I do not believe that this was documented there. I’m not even seeing any implication that it’s there.
Oh, well. The next question is, will BofA mobs now remain at 60, or will they continue to increase as we get promoted in Dragonflight?

Remain at 60 I’d imagine, but I don’t recall ever seeing anything about it in the natch potes either.
Your guess is as good as mine. It’ll all depend on what expansion Blizzard deems the “starter experience” going forward
Word was that Ion and crew have been debating making all mobs scale to 70 after DF launches in every old expac/world area. This being the new norm for immersive world content and keeping old raids/dungeons in the rotations.
The Visions are also lvl 50.
Normal BFA dungeons are lvl 60 and no longer soloable. Heroic and Mythic dungeons are lvl 50 and somewhat soloable (although everything has its hp buffed and hits like a truck).

You’re a gnome so you probably deserved it.
Frankly, that would degrade my enjoyment of playing this GAME greatly, so I really hope that does not happen.
