Cataclysm leveling - with BoA gear?

Thread first seen on March 20, 2010

With the BoA shoulders and chestpiece, we get a 20% increase to exp gains. Does Blizz plan to allow BoA gear to scale with level, up to level 85? Will the xp gain affect Cataclysm mobs and quest turn-ins? Or will it maybe be removed?

Or, is it maybe possible that Blizz will require an INSANE amount of xp between each level, to counteract the effects of BoA gear?

I think it most likely that the xp gain will be removed from 80-85, at least for a while.. maybe they'll give it back to us later. Do you think it would be fair to give us this xp boost?

Any blues wanna let me know if I should farm out a full set of BoA gear or not? :P

They've already said the xp bonus and the stats growth will stop at 80.

Blizzard has stated that the BoA gear for WotLK will continue to work until 80. As for the leveling content, I assume it will be balanced around lack of BoA gear.

I highly doubt BoA gear will work for Cata content, XP nerfs and helpful items usually only come after content has been out awhile.

Because the first time around they want you to have to actually see what they spent so much time on.

Nope, Levels 1-80 only
