The Staff http://www.wowhead.com/item=141596/s...the-inquisiton was never added to the game sadly but for those hunting for the transmog it shares the same look as the horde staff you get for starting the Broken Shore with a caster.
The main issue is that the chests drop one handed weapons for casters or tanks but no offhand or shields to go with them, and without a staff it does mean most casters are kinda kicked in the teeth. The gods of RNG are rather fickle since I've cleared about 10-20 invasions so far and only got one weapon from it, which was the caster sword so probably the one I wanted most but still.
Been playing beta a bit... The first quest rewards (other than the artifact) in Legion are sub 700 in 685 region so any alt >should< go farming the invasion gear! I'm not in it for the looks - they look sh*t imo....
ive gotten at least 6 of the one handed axes on my low level alt, and one wand on my level 100 lock so its not like they dont drop
You can easily get better items just by doing Ashran
Heh. It took me 6 months of farming Archimonde to get his caster staff. So, stop complaining about free loot after 1 week of invasions. And stop complaining about weapon drop anyways. 30 minutes into legion, you will get your artifact weapon. It is 750 ilevel and beats anything out here right now.
So like... why to people even run this apart from levelling purposes? I mean - gearwise you will be getting better loot after several quests in Legion in 2 weeks >.>
I get many 1 hand casters weapons too bad taht i dont have offhand and there is non from ivasions so rip 725 weapon.
Yeah I've gotten, probably over 10 swords and maybe 5 wands. Maybe theres no staff but it's no big deal.
It's still fun to do the events as a mage with all the alliance players around. Living bombs and ignotes all over the place. It usually ends with 10+ players just hunting me down but it's so worth it!
That's fair, I wasn't sure if maybe that was true, considering I have been getting plenty of weapons across my characters and even in duplicates as I try for armour pieces, so from personal experience it only seemed adequate to say it's up to RNG on what you get, if the weapons are indeed lower % to drop, then I guess I'm just lucky ;P
I've just been doing the invasions on the characters that are woefully undergeared (still in mostly i605 heirlooms once they ding 100). I have beta access so I transferred many freshly dinged 100 characters with low ilevels to see if the opening sequence of quests for the class hall and artifacts are doable at that level. Most of them are doable, but quite aggravating and overly challenging, but get quite a bit easier once your overall ilevel is closer to i680 which is the ilevel of the beta test characters.
Weapons will mean nothing once Legion launches so I'm not really stressing about those, if i get them great, otherwise some greens from the AH ~i650 are fine. I just care about the rest of the armor to help with the opening quests in Legion (Artifact and first few quests in your first zone).
Did Ashram ever get fixed? Last I heard, it was awful. (I don't pvp.)
