What ilvl is the cutoff between the LFR - Normal - Heroic tier set look. I for example want to get the normal look and maybe the heroic one. I can’t check to see if the item I upgrade will have the look I want while using the catalyst.
Except from Trial and Error I have discovered that a 385 ilvl piece will get to LFR mog, and 415 is where Mythic Mog starts.
I will be upgrading that 385 piece at some point to get the Normal appearance at some point, but I’m focusing my Valor on my progression at the moment.
I assume since a 385 piece will get you LFR, that would mean that Storm Gear will convert to LFR. But I have not tested that, so don’t quote me.
Nope, I have leveled the pants from Normal to Heroic → except I was dumb and I forgot to pay attention. You can even get LFR if you do it at upgrade 1 or 2, but I haven’t tested it.
I’ve not seen any specific chart but was going to base mine off the ranges given on this chart. Might err on the side of caution and keep them to the low end it has three different drop levels.
It does now update the colour/mog with the item level of the armour. For example my helm and chest have now unlocked mythic, shoulders require 10 more rating (2.4K) for the max upgrade level which then gives the mythic transmog
