MoP Remix Post-Event Item Level Possibly Increased to ilvl467
With about a week before the end of the Remix: Mists of Pandaria event, players are starting to plan what to do with their timerunners after the event reaches its end. As previously reported from PTR testing, characters from the event would obtain ilvl415 gear, but this might have changed.
During recent testing on the Patch 11.0.2 PTR, we noticed that the Remix: Pandaria event had ended earlier than the anticipated date of August 19, so we decided to log in to check if anything had changed from our previous PTR findings.
The first thing we noticed was our Alliance character stationed by the Stormwind Embassy, with a small prompt window telling us the event had ended and our character transported back to the original timeline.
On a second look, we decided to check the character… who had a fresh set of character boost gear, but instead of the ilvl415 stuff we previously noted, the character was now at ilvl467! This higher item level is much closer to what characters can obtain during the Radiant Echoes pre-patch event and also gives that character a much easier time through the first steps of The War Within.
We've also tested purchasing a Character Boost to check if this is in fact a MoP Remix thing or just the paid Character Boost being stealth buffed, but characters leveled via the paid Character Boost are still raised to ilvl424.
