Is is possible to upgrade the heirloom weapons from Garrosh?
I expect the answer is probably no, given they are ilv 561 as standard but it's worth asking.

You can't upgrade them.
No they basically come upgraded already. I'm sure it has to do with potential issues surrounding upgrading scaling weapons.
No, but as Daear said, they already come 8 ilvls higher than any other weapon.
Sadly, this makes then less than desirable when comparing to a warforged.
my question about them, is will the flex/normal/heroic versions keep their relative power over each other?
as it stands now, the DPS difference between the flex and heroic versions of the 2h axe is around 1.7k. will that persist when we hit lvl 91?

personally i would like to see them all lose the green text and become the same at lvl 91, im 14/14 N right now so i will most likely end up with the normal version if they ever drop.

Since I don't want to open a thread about a simple question I will post it here instead:
Are the Garrosh heirlooms personal loot? Can I coin them or chain run Garrosh as long as I have coins? Or are the weapons distributed similarly to the legendary quest items (one chance for the loot per week and no coin will increase the chance to get the item)?
Garrosh heirlooms are personal loot. When you defeat him, everyone rolls a chance to get one (I assume 15%) and it will just drop into their bags. This is seperate from the standard loot he drops. Also when you coin, you have a chance to get items off his regular loot table but also the heirlooms. I'm not sure if you can get the offspec heirlooms for your coins after you've a received a main spec one.
Think of them as a long-term investment. They're already competitive with non-Warforged weapons, and they'll eventually outpower the Warforged weapons as you level next expansion (provided you got them on Heroic and not Normal or Flex).

Personal loot. First weapon will be appropriate for your loot spec, randomly rewarded after.
