Follower Item Level
The item level cap on followers will be brought forward to 900 to keep them relevant and progress the system.

Thanks Blizz. Tell me after I've spent months vendoring get upgrades for followers.

[SpiffyGriffy]

I only caught the end of this because i'm at work. Did they mention when we can start researching the new levels of AK for our weapons? Is it immediate? Or do we have to wait?

Trying to figure out how much time we will have to invest into new points before ToS.

[Gloriandus]

The "Win 10 Rated BG" requirement for the third color in the new appearance row will probably be a hot topic.

"The Exodar has been crashed for a while, so he isn't going home anytime soon." It was literally fixed up and made functional in Velens shortstory that they made for each faction leader.

You can start researching the day of the patch.

Anything gotten before 7.2 only goes to 850

After few quests you get item for free AK level research, then you can research for next right away.

[Kellorion]

um exodar has been fixed since Cat
and
Where's Wrathion?!?!

[Darksoldierr]

Once you have unlocked the new appearance you have demonstrated mastery of that spec.

Eventually it will get easier as you get more gear and new Artifact traits.

Alright, alright

[MysticalOS]

That's fine, keep vendoring. the existing ilvl upgrade items for followers cap at 850 and there are entirely new items in 7.2 for going above 850. So any follower upgrade items are completely useless and waste bag space.

[Toshirouu]

AP needs to be Class wide, not spec wide. Legendarys need to be purchased. It really is that simple. Reasons Leigon isn't a 10/10 imo

[Armdog]

That final Order Hall Research is going live like that? Extra artifact knowledge....Total fail.

I was looking forward to double trait relics, despite the flaws

[MrExcelion]

The "Win 10 Rated BG" requirement for the third color in the new appearance row will probably be a hot topic.

Will see a lot of carries for that one probably, will be the new CM kind of thing, especially for those getting it for specs that might not be as viable in PVP

[Queen of Hamsters]

Well isn't that wonderful. I sure as fuck hope that the "you need to reach exalted in order to start working on the class hall mounts"-crap is account-wide.

[Tupolew519]

and what about sylvanas?

[Super Kami Dende]

Thanks Blizz. Tell me after I've spent months vendoring get upgrades for followers.

If you didn't expect this after they did the same thing with Garrison Followers, that's your problem.

New Relic Traits
Future raids will no longer drop the non-throughout relics, so alternative means to acquire them will be added.

So, can someone explain this to me?

Karazhan
Nightbane is not in Mythic+, so you can't get his loot.

Umm what? Does this mean he's not in the queue system or that Nightbane is gone for good?
Nice warning time of 4 days to get the mount is given to us if the latter is true.

Just you can't farm him in M+, He is able to be farmed in normal, This is because his gear would be stupidly overpowered if you got warforged/titanforged of a M+ version, Could you imagine, a 950 Urn?... 3k Stat+ like 1800 Mastery
