World of Warcraft: Current Year

You can do profession crafting from 1, but the quests require a specific level.

I know it's a long shot but I'd love it if they took the scaling system they're using for invasions and somehow retroactively applied it to all of the vanilla levelling zones. Obviously it would need some tweaking, but it would be the perfect fix for the current system, where you're forced to choose between using heirlooms and levelling so fast you have to swap zones every hour or so (basically never getting a chance to finish quest lines), not not using heirlooms and levelling at snails pace.

If they did that they would have to scale all the dungeons too, that is a ton of work for stuff that a small portion of the populace would be using.

They already spent a bunch of (kind of wasted in my opinion) time revamping the 1-60 experience when Cata re-did the world (at least we got flying). I think they just need to reduce xp/level and move on.

This game still shit or what

"Works great"

Wait, what? Everything I've seen so far said don't bother levelling profs for Legion, that you can just do them from level 1. That doesn't include the world quests?

Just to add on to this, besides the world quest requirements. Research your profession. Some have items that do still take skill. For example base on my research the +200 stat gems from JC(my profession) do take 800 skill to make. So starting legion with 1 skill or other very low might not be the best idea(which is why I have it at 700).

I think world quests require skill level 100 for gathering professions and 300 for the rest.

Actually can't find any sort of info on this. I've heard it in this thread but Wowhead, etc don't seem to list the skill levels required for profession world quests. No idea what to get my skill levels to! Just gonna do 100ish gathering and 300ish for my main proff and hope that's enough...

It's trivial to get professions to 300 now anyway.

Well shit. Even 300 might be a stretch for me with the crap gold I have on Hyjal, I only got the 500 with the boost. Might have to try to bang out a couple old raids and bump up the profs a bit before Tuesday.

I don't see why they'd necessarily have to do the dungeons, the quests for them are self contained now, not linked up to external quest chains.

I guess it's a matter of taste. I like going back and doing the old vanilla stuff on alts, especially since there's such a variation in content.

Reducing xp/level would just make the problem worse - levelling with heirlooms is already crazy fast, even without boosts/RAF/etc.

Anyway, I get that it probably won't happen, at least not anytime soon, but it'd still be cool.

Really enjoying Legion pre-patch. Pleasantly surprised by all of the class changes, a lot make sense for PVP. Might be the best PvP season since MoP if they tune down rdruids and dot damage.

Took too many invasions, but I finally finished off my 12th class for 100 across the board. We know when the fel shards have to be turned in by?

Whoever said Krasarang Wild Anglers dailies took less than 10 min clearly wasn't getting the Shocking! - Quest - World of Warcraft quest.

Yeah I can't find any hard numbers either. World quest rewards look to be worth it, but maybe not in the grand scheme of things? Not sure.

In terms of what? Gear?

Everything I have read and heard, say they are great for AP. The gear rewards scale with your ilvl(so higher you are the higher the rewards). Also iirc, there are a few each day that reward a box/chest from each zone's faction, where you can get the legendaries from.

As for crafting, extra source of bloods of sargeras, also they give the odd very rare resources(feltwort, brimstone etc) like once every 3 days(and I think its pretty much only way to get those materials).
