force ilevel scaledown for old content

[gordon4166]

I tested this with Stockades. We cleared a heroic and had one person go there while the four of us teleported to the Stocks. It worked up until that point, since it did not scale us down.

I feel like this is Blizzards response to people wanting the old content back. I dont think this is what people meant. +rep though, cool share.

Thanks for the post! after testing this out with some friends I have discovered a few things!
1. join a dungeon through the LFD interface, it does not have to be a Heroic, as we used the headless horseman event.
2. complete the dungeon and have the random pugs leave.
3. have one person teleport out of dungeon, make sure not to leave the instance group! have that person go the dungeon that you would like to scale down. So far it seems that dungeons that are 40-60lvl work only, but we have only tested a few (BRD, STRAT, UBRS). I bet others would work though.
4. once the person that left is in the dungeon you want to scale down to. have the other members click to "Teleport to Dungeon" option.
5. There gear and level should now be scaled down.
To get the initial person to also be scaled down just leave through the portal and re-enter and all should be good.
we tested raid finder as well but it did not work.

EDIT: So it seems that only BRD, Strat, and BRS work. Also if you finish the run that you are all scaled down in you can then enter another instance and still be scaled down without having to run another heroic dungeon.

If there is some way to scale ilvl up; that would be useful. Can't imagine how scaling ilvl down can be of any use.

the feature lets you play with low lvl friends. for example they are lvl 20 and youre 90, you can queue with them and will be scaled down to lvl 20, so they still recieve full exp. (in the future)

Just fyi: Blizzard has to do the scale. Atm they cant give a boss more than 2,1billion hp.
Would suck to see in the next addon every boss with some heal ability.

Blues have stated that item squish wont effect soloing old content, I imagine its a feature to scale down and is 100% optional. I love this idea, challenge modes of more dungeons/raids would be really cool. Even if not challenge modes just scaling down and possibly being able to queue for that content at 90 seems pretty awesome in my opinion.

I hope this gets implemented to the old BC heroics.

Looking for some guys to make some low Dungeon for nostalgic Parts

As you see on MMO Champion Raids should work too

Will be interesting if they push it into lower bgs also.

They did this for rift.. Mentoring, You can mentor your lvl to run with lowbies in dunegons or in normal content without limiting the xp. And by mentoring in dungeons you would get bonus xp/loot after completing the dungeon random. I guess wow is going to copy it maybe cause people complained about wanting to do the old content without having to stop xp.
