A guildie told me the armor and weapon iLvl starts at 750 for legion quests. Why are we doing invasions that drop 700 gear? I figured the gear would help my dust collecting alts run the first few level quests faster...

Weapon starts at 750. Gear drops are 690-695 till 101 then around 109-110 790~ ilvl. The end quest of each zone gives an 800 ilvl piece which can be worn as soon as you do it. So if you completed Val'sharah at 102 you get a ilvl 800 at 102, but other quests will not drop that ilvl.

Your guildie is wrong. You don't start seeing consistent 750+ gear till like 106, maybe 107. I forget, I've only leveled on beta 3 times.
The artifact has a base Ilvl of 750, maybe the guildie assumed that was for armor as well, but the armor at level 100 was about 700, iirc.

Ok thanks all for replying... This makes me feel better my time in invasions is not going to waste! Glad to know it will help me the first few levels.
Everything helps. But don't forget people that level a new toon in Legion will also have to start somewhere.
When they ding 100 (or rather 98 regarding the scenarios) they will be at an itemlevel of about ~560, then they are able to push it over the scenarios to about 600 (but that includes getting a 685 weapon, which makes a big deal) - at least until they let heirlooms go to 110. So the first quests and mobs (at level 100) are going to be pretty easy.
Being able to start into the expansion with an itemlevel of about 700 is already a fairly big boost. On the other side itemlevel won't even matter in the next months, as you can go naked and just tap mobs others are going to kill.
The chart I saw said that iLvl 700 really only starts hitting regularly around level 101.

Don't know how accurate it is, though.
only the weapon start at ilvl 750. I started to get around ilvl 750 at lvl 107 if i remeber correctly
If you get full 720 warforged ilvl gear from the invasions, you probably won't replace any of it till level 106, with the exception of weapons and loot you get from dungeons.
At 105-106, you will replace mythic raid gear. Maybe the set you keep till 107-108, depending how good it is for your class. The legendary ring is a good question as it has a really high item level and follows the "old" ring style of having a primary stat whereas the new rings only have stamina and 2 secondaries.
