Timewalking changes in 6.2.2

[JohnGabriel]

I love gearing up doing Timewalking dungeons, they are fun, quick, and give great gear. Now we also get toys, mounts, heirlooms, and rep. Its almost to where I only need to play on Timewalking weekends.

I do not know for sure but I believe next weekend, September 4th-6th, will be the next Timewalking weekend. Last weekend was honor and weekend before was apex crystals, its about time for another Timewalking.


New Timewalking Rewards
Players now receive a Timewarped Badge when they complete a Timewalking dungeon. These badges can be redeemed at new vendors that appear during a Timewalking bonus event. The new vendors sell new toys, new mounts, heirloom and reputation tokens, in addition to gear that scales up to the character's level at the time of purchase.


Timewalking Loot Changes
Timewalking bosses who had unusual drops, such as Reins of the Blue Proto-Drake, now have a chance to drop those items when defeated while Timewalking.

And i love time walkers its a shame u need the old tank/dps/healer setup to run then. an leveling up a DK to run them with my shammy's. and hoping to get the mount/toys and other some 675 tanking gear on my Deathknight.

Looking forward to trying timewalking with my Druid tank x3 MM Hunters and Disc Priest once levelled.. my poor Hunter pets got slaughtered in them even in tank spec with a healer!

Use as much gems/gemmed gear as you can get and anything with procs. lengendarys/weapon procs/gems dont scale down. Makes these dungeons cake.

I do not think they are tuned very well for players below level 100. I tried going in early and could barely get past the trash mobs.

That was another team I tried with - I had a shadowpriest, monk healer and x3 bm hunters at level 100, and the pets I just could not heal them fast enough for all the damage they took.. so I am levelling a team with a tank.. hopefully I will do better!

Also at 68 instead of going straight to Northrend I carried on doing all the bc instances and some of those were tough..
(the tempest keep area ones) even on normal mode... but I did them so am happy.

I have hated the time walking event so far. it was NEVER that hard to do. the trash mobs cut through my pally like paper. I thought I was in for a fun time boxing the old stuff that I was so good at.. NOT. I don't get where Blizzard got the scaling from, I have mostly 675->695 gear so I can't understand what it's not easy mode for me. As for trying it with a single level 81 using LFG .... that was the worst than my boxing team trying it.

I don't think it matters how good your gear is at 100, as it scales down to a specific iLevel for the dungeon. I have completed all of the timewalking dungeons multiple times with this team (http://us.battle.net/wow/en/guild/bleeding-hollow/Boxers_or_Briefs/roster).

What dungeon are you having trouble with?

[emitchell109]

You can swap out gear that has Gems/enchantes those particular items do not scale down. Giving you a BIT more over power feeling. When arranged properly of course.

ilvl 164. There is some great gear(best in slot) for some that is purchasable with gold in Dalaran from the old justice/valor vendors. More gem slots the better

Even better is next time the level cap increases, you still wont need to replace it. That gear will be Best in Slot Forever!!!

We can just rush to level cap and put on our Timewalk set to receive current ilevel gear quickly.
