I’ve been playing this game for 16 years and for the first time since that I feel like I’m playing the game completely wrong. Am I doing something really whack or are BFA areas just broken compared to everywhere else?
There aren’t even any quest rewards, my item level is 12 at level 24, hardly any quests give loot.
BFA content was designed with having the Azerite necklace and Azerite gear to go with it in mind.
But with leveling changes, you only get it at level 50 when you actually don’t need it.
So quests which would normally award gear (Azerite gear almost exclusively) now rarely give gear because the bulk of the gear drops (Azerite gear) occur after hitting level 50.
You’re leveling up without access to the gear the zones were designed around!
its a shame, really, given how “new” players have to finish bfa first in order to have access to chromie. they really should add a bit more gear to bfa questing.
We level so fast that it’s not uncommon to have slots left behind. You can craft items or buy them on AH if you are really struggling. I use heirlooms on most characters so it’s not too bad.
