    force ilevel scaledown for old content

    Hello, this exploit is not mine and just recently stumbled upon it.

    There's a trick ingame to force your ilevel to scale down, most likely for a feature in the new expansion.

    youtube.com/watch?v=7YBc7pcqSZA

    ^video proof, he unknowningly scaled down his ilevel and went to do a mountrun as normal, but you can see his HP is only 5.9k and he dies pretty fast.

    us.battle.net/wow/en/character/korgath/Alpok/simple

    ^his armory

    The way to do it is in his own words: "Basically i was in a heroic while in que for another, went to zone out but the only teleport option was to teleport TO dungeon. So wondering what it would do i pressed it and thats where i found the bug. Luckly i happened to be recording when it happened so here it is."

    Prereqs for this trick to work, Finish a (heroic) instance through LFD, queue for another, have your friend go into the instance you want to teleport and scale down to, rightclick LFD tool and choose "Teleport to Dungeon" and you should be inside the dungeon your friend is in, but with scaled down ilevel.

    I take no credit for this, I just merely think it's interesting.

    Also it's kinda useless, isn't it... Now you have low level gear-level. Great, now you can die really fast without effort...

    That would be rly nice future to implement for good. Imagine raids/guild groups scaled down to that kind of ilvl and actually fighting with TBC raid boss for few minutes, and not seconds. It would be great to let as chose if we want to scale down or stay powerful as we are. That solves situations when ppl want to solo or raid a thing with group. Also that gives us opportunity to experience old content once more.
    Nice find anyway. Thanks !

    Dude, I'm going to have a blast with this once this comes out officially. It surerly won't be useless to me since I'll enjoy a lot of old content with a new twist.

    This feature will most likely be announced in some weeks during Blizzcon, for the new expansion or patch.

    You have 11.1k Health when you first enter the instance then when you enter it again to resurrect you have 5.9k very interesting.

    That is because he had the Crystal of Insanity buff as he went into the instance and lost it when he died.

    If this goes live then it should be a matter of choice. I still find more fun soloing old content then running new instances.If this happens and you can't accept or decline scale down many will quit...

    This, so hard.
    As much fun as old content was, the game is completely different now. I don't want to have to re-do old mechanics and spend hours in every raid to get my RP loot / vanity items. It might be fun every once in a while, but more often than not I want to finish the instance in 5-10 minutes and get out.

    I can solo new HC dungeons as a moonkin with ilvl567, makes no sense that as lvl90 i cant solo BRD or any other lets say vanilla dungeon due to ilvl scaledown!!!
    So yes, since I have been playing for past 8,5 years ( since April 2005 ) I am not interested in doing/killing rares on a new isle 50x per day. I wanna do ICC25 and kill LK on HC for mount, wanna farm DS for mount and so on. Scaledown can only benefit players that wanna do dungeons with friends, so yes If you wanna do old content as lvl90 with gear scaled to lvl30 feel free to accept that when you enter that dungeon, If i dont wanna do that, dont make me.

    Old content and new current raid is what is keeping me from quiting, and I bet 20-30% more players. So if they lose 1.5mil-2mill due to this decision it would turn up bad for them.

    This will obviously be a toggle, if you do not wish to use the feature you will be able to turn it off. I'm 100% certain of this, since Blizzard wouldn't mess such a thing up before. And also that they keep nerfing old raids so you can solo them, doubt they would take it away now.

    i believe blizzard stated at some point, that they would make people able to scale their ilvl down to make old raids etc. more challenging, and old raids would give rewards this way. i cannot remember where i saw it, so i cannot find a proper source. but i think this might be the new feature.

    I think you can only teleport into dungeons, not raids atm.

    Blizzard said thousand times that it wont affect of soloing old content. Even if the scaldown ur health/dmg in world -> and they will cuz that was already said, it wont be working on raids. WHen u enter old raid content u will get a lot buffed. They said this a lot of times so no worries guys that u will lose that
