A “note to self” on what item levels are needed to get into the MoP Scenarios, Dungeons, and Raids, and what item level they drop. Also what is obtainable from Factions and Craftables, via gold and Reputation.
Why? Because I frequently get them confused with each other…
Scenarios
- Requires: 425
- Awards: chance of 463, and now a small chance of 476
Heroic 5-mans
- Requires: 440
- Awards; 463, with very rare 476 on a few end bosses.
Mogushan Vaults (raid)
- Requires: 460
- Awards LFR: 476, Normal: 489, Heroic: 502
Heart of Fear and Terrace of Endless Spring (raids)
- Requires: 470
- Awards LFR: 483, Normal: 496, Heroic: 509
Reputation Rewards
- (most) faction = 458 gear purchased with Justice points
- (some) factions = 463 gear, such as Klaxxi Exalted weapons, for gold.
- (most) Honored and Revered with faction = 489 gear purchased with Valor points
- Friendly with ShieldWall Offensive = 458 gear purchased with Justice points
- Honored with ShieldWall Offensive = 496 gear purchased with Valor points
- Revered with ShieldWall Offensive = 496 gear purchased with Valor points
- Exalted and doing a Quest chain, with the Golden Lotus grants a 489 Neck
- Exalted and doing a Quest chain, with the Klaxxi grants a 489 Ring
Craftables
- Item level 450s (no special mats needed – dirt cheap)
- 463 (Spirit of Harmony needed – cheap-ish)
- 476s (Spirit of Harmony needed – not badly priced at the moment due to new gear)
- 496 (Bloods needed – very expensive)
Happy killing
Scenarios and 5 mans have a chance at 476s, not 472s.
All justice gear is 458.
Justice point items don’t require reputation now either.
Half of the valor items only require Honored.
Exalted Golden Lotus/Klaxxi give a 489 ring/neck respectively.
Ta, will make corrections.
Some factions still have Rep requirements, but (I think) the items are now purchasable with gold, such as Klaxxi exalted weapons.
added your blogroll to my list too – good reading
