Anyone on PTR please

The statement about all profession made items being changed to be brought in line with Burning crusade items.. huh? anyone elaborate...Does Dark iron have a set bonus now? What are they talking about.

what are you talking about ?

Direct from patch notes on public test realm

- All of the profession-made items that have been created up to now have been given proper stats based on the current expansion item level progression table.
- Most of the items made by Tailoring/Leatherworking/Blacksmithing have had their creation time reduced. Now the cap on time required to make an item in those professions is based on quality and level.

I am wondering if anyone on there can give an example. Like Dark iron.. hell to make and no set bonus.. is that changing.. things like that.

I see this note to say that stats have been adjusted if needed, to accommodate items they have put into BC that come up at higher levels...And, I see that the time to create an item is related to the level the item is for, and the quality (gree, blue, etc.).

I don't see anything suggesting that they have added set bonuses to things that had none.

This leads me to believe certain crafted items have been buffed?

Not really asking for an interpretation, sorry If I hinted that, fun to speculate though isn't it :) Wondering if anyone from test can give an example.

Unfortunately I can't look at much from work.. pretty much here and wowinsider blog lol

What it means is that if items, say Titanic Leggings, have % chance to crit, they will be changed to the proper BC format which is xx Crit Rating.

On top of that, it's saying that those items which you have already crafted are going to be updated with the proper BC stats. So 1% chance to crit will become 14 crit rating.

So for all intensive purposes, nothing but text will be changing.

The item-level progression table just means that where 1% crit at lvl 1 means the exact same thing at lvl 60, the equivalent 14 crit rating means 1% at lvl 60 but will mean, say, 0.5% at lvl 70. So the item will scale with level.

MY response was a bit ad-hoc but I hope the message is clear enough lol
