well... no more farming low lvl gear
if in the past for earning lvl 26 drops u had to run with ppl who is max lvl 26
now u can run with any lvl and if u lvl 26 ull earn that lvl 26drop!!!
u kill the farmers and now is no reason to stay at this lvl
lvl. 26 shield is no longer rear item
im disapointed from that update and ill just lvl up my second alt.

hmm hold on made the same mistake, as far as I can tell, this may not be how things are
-the drops are scaled for lower levels, not for higher levels, so if you are farming with a level 25 alt, you will not drop a level 22 scavenger, and if you are farming with a level 30 alt, you will not drop a level 26 shield, for both of these, you need to be at the appropriate levels yourself
-however, now if you are level 26 and there are other higher levels in the game, then you may drop a level 26 shield, the chances of this has increased yes, but this still does not make level locked twinks useless

at least this is how I understand the update, no way to confirm lol

the prices of the shields have halved, donno if this is because of a better drop rate or more of a panic sale coz people understood the update wrong

Agree with Sun. :)
Before update u need a team with lvl 26 max to farm lvl 26 items and it took a time to finish lvl.
Now u just get your 36 and your friends their 26 and u can finish it easily and fast.
This makes low lvl items easier to get so prices are falling down.
Farming will be reduced to max lvl items, and you'll only get thise if you are max lvl so its the end of getting the best gear while you are leveling.
I rly hope it never arrives to PL cuz I'm a farmer and I have many low lvl toons that will become useless then.

Just my 2 cents. :)

Ya. I would have to agree. The fun and profit in farming is gone if you can still get scaled drops with high level players in the group. Takes out the challenge and rarity of getting items.

I pray this never makes it to pocket legends.

Isn't the whole reason to get a lvl 26 shield, for pvp? Pvp isn't even out yet so even if you were farming lvl 26 shields you don't know if it will even be valuable when pvp comes out? Gamble anyway you look at it... Just my two cents.
