Easy obtain ilvl 470 Stat to get into LFR

[romibaer]

Hello
today i want to share a little glitch i found !
Just wanted to go with my toon into the new LFR-Instance which hase a ilvl restriciton to 470 but my toon only had 467 or something
so here is what you have to do

go to the conquest gear vendor, buy your gear with ilvl 483 (or something near that), once you have the gear in the bag you can join the que and still sell the gear back to the vendor for a full refund !
you don`t loose your points and can still easy join the LFR content !
maybe works also with valor-gear, but didn`t test it !

leave a comment if it helped you

Yeah, but if I already had the points, why wouldn't I just but the gear I needed anyways?

I am sorry romibaer, but this have been discussed here alot in the past.
This workaround is present, since the ilvl requirement was implemented in WoW!

Having unequiped Bind on Equip items in your inventory and "lending" currency gear off the Quartermaster is always a very good practice vs the ilvl check.

I must add a change, gone live with Mists of Pandaria: The ilvl check works for the spec now.
For example: If you obtain Agi/Str item with huge ilvl over your poor green intelect item as healer, the non-spec item will count excluding the non-spec related stats as Agi/Str/Exp/Hit as healer.

you can still sit on your points to buy expensive gear like weapons
for example:
you have 2500 points => you can buy neck and back
=> this will push you`r item-level
then sell those pieces again to vendor for full refund and buy next-week weapon for 3500 points

not a big exploit here, but maybe handy for someone

it only makes it easier if:

1. you have enough conquest points
2. you are saving up for something expensive like the weapon (else it doesn't make it easier as you can just buy the item you want & gain ilvl's

Pretty sure it's a repost but thanks for trying to contribute anyways

It's not an exploit at all it's just common sense.
