Item level progression has been updated. Item levels now increase faster in lower character levels, and low-level creatures are better tuned to account for this and other factors.

Additionally, Gold rewards have been increased at all character levels.

Comment by StrawHatZacharyMore gold? Not gonna complain with that!Comment by AstratosCool...fast visible progress at early stage then slowing down at the end and chance to farm some cool gear...Comment by HexquasMore gold? Not gonna complain with that!Comment by ShryMy question is what's gonna happen in legion content, between legendaries and artifact weapons. Like will legendaries be a thing, and if so what ilvl will they be, will they scale, and what will the required level be. Also what will the level scaling of artifact weapons be, and will legion dungeons now have weapons added?Comment by Matrixwolfso? at least we can afford the exspensive vendor buys now 2 mill spider 5 mbill bruto, BMAHComment by seishuuredesign and overhaul makes it sound like a cataclysm-type situation where some items might become unavailable, but the blue post only mentions tuning scaling and gold rewards. is there more context? should i be rushing to finish loremaster on all armorclasses?Comment by Peredhilso? at least we can afford the exspensive vendor buys now 2 mill spider 5 mbill bruto, BMAHComment by RevengeVMy question is what's gonna happen in legion content, between legendaries and artifact weapons.

Normally when leveling you end up with 15-20k gold from rewards and vendoring . With the new levelling system we wont have as many quests, nodes,kills etc as we do now. To make sure we still get the same amount of gold as we do now they HAD to increase the gold drop rate .Comment by SilverDragon234Now that's something I can agree with.Comment by CordanaI'm STILL pissed about the change to level scaling which has completely ruined leveling for me. I have no doubt Blizzard will mess this up too. I paid for those previous expansions with the feature-sets they currently have. This is more change for the sake of change and does not need to be done.Comment by kammo12I'm STILL pissed about the change to level scaling which has completely ruined leveling for me.

Someone who was testing told that quests in alpha rewarded COPPERS. So they fixed it... It is possible that in the end it will be less than we have nowadays.Comment by MaXiiczekMore gold?
