Note that heirloom items will at all levels have a gearscore that appears to be their level 80 version's score. Not sure if the LGF tool takes stats or level into account for those, but at any given level they are slightly worse than a same level blue due to some stat allocation being put into the xp bonus, so you will probably want to replace them pretty soon after hitting 80. I know I saved some quest blues from Icecrown/Storm Peaks/crafted for it.
I'm going to live forever, or die trying.
5 Shaman Northrend Heroics - My YouTube Channel - Details about my setup (outdated)
T2 Heroics: lvl 80 Heroics wearing lvl 60 armour
Running 5-6 accounts on one computer, currently playing Horde on US-Skywall.
My main teams:
5x Shamans lvl 85
5-class team lvl 100: Paladin, Druid, Shaman, Mage, Priest
I did some experimenting with this last night.
Wargirlb's gear score with Heirlooms was over 3500 but Dungeon Finder tool would not allow access to normal Pit of Saron.
I swapped out the Heirlooms lowering her GS to 3300 and then the Dungeon Finder tool would allow access to normal Pit of Saron.
So it looks to me like the Dungeon Finder is not counting Heirlooms at all while GS does count them.
