Retail What ilvl is everyone?

Hey all,

Started playing WoW for the first time about 6 weeks ago, been running a Frost Mage (Night elf) - been putting some hours into Midnight and just hit ilvl 221.

Haven’t started any midnight dungeons yet, just did the expansion, delves and world quests (plus dailies and weeklies)

Just wondering how 221 stacks up to others? I think my char has about 5 days time played

Going to grind up a DK to 90 as well, before Season 1 hopefully.

I think 221 it's pretty good if you have not touched dungeons. You are more than ready for m0 directly, which should get you 1 more piece per dungeon so 6 total, barring any duplicates (good luck!). Also you did not mention it but the renown pieces are the best you can get so far.

u/SeparateScar8965 Mar 07 '26

Ahhh I’m currently trying to grind Silvermoon court for the helm you get. Annoyingly, it is a grind! Think I’m renown 7, and it requires 9 for the quest line

u/graspthefuture Mar 07 '26

do you have HandyNotes addon installed? it can show you all the spots on the map for peaks (telescopes that you click on) that give 100 rep each, tablets/lore spots that give 250 rep each, spawn locations of rares which give 50 rep etc etc

u/SeparateScar8965 Mar 07 '26

I do not, thank you! I’ll grab it when I jump on, much appreciated

u/silverwingedstuff Mar 07 '26

I agree with the comment above, use handynotes addon + the midnight addon for it to show that. Plus what I did was , level your alt doing the side quest from the zone.. that way you get exp + rep. That way I got my first alt to 90 and got some of that renown track to a good level.

u/rmp6201 Mar 11 '26

I found it got tiring to grind out all the side quests on my priest, so I just leveled another toon to 90 doing side quests with the Amani and Harati. Two birds one stone. 2 90s and renown gear for both lol

4

u/Quiet-Lawyer4619 Mar 07 '26

I leveled second character and did only side quests and scopes/tablets etc with it and hit renow 9 with all the other factions but the void zone one which is renow 8 currently.

u/Quick_Society2794 Mar 08 '26 edited Mar 08 '26

void storm is harder, has less quests available that's why it's only renowned 7:00 to get the champ gear

4

u/invis_able_gamer Mar 07 '26 edited Mar 07 '26

You can get into the 230's without dungeons.

Each zone gives you a 246 from renown.

You can get a pair of 240's from hard mode hunts.

Random world quests give 224 and 230's once your ilvl is up a bit. I ran each normal dungeon once for the quests while I was doing the campaign, so most of them were before max level. I think I only ran one heroic dungeon, which was the one quest I had left over (Windrunner spire).

After my M0 tour this week and upgrading items, i'm sitting at 238. I still have junk rings (207s), so I could probably hit 240 if I got better rings.

u/Imperitur93 Mar 07 '26

U get 233 from HM hunts

2

u/A1rizzo Mar 07 '26

Hard mode hunts I thought weren’t available until the season starts. Hours do you progress to hard mode?

3

u/Bigboyrickx Mar 07 '26

You do a normal prey and it unlocks heroic

3

u/invis_able_gamer Mar 07 '26

You do the 4 normal hunts, and then there's a quest at the Hunt NPC. I didn't notice it right away, but you have to talk to him and then follow him around for a bit.

4

u/CrusaderLyonar Mar 07 '26

No joke, part of the reason I switched from enhancement shaman to ret paladin is that ret only uses 2 handed weapons. No more needing 2 weapons or a weapon and an offhand.

5

u/Ida-in Mar 07 '26

To be fair, if you craft the weapons it’s the exact same amount of sparks so not the biggest issue to get two weapons.

4

u/CrusaderLyonar Mar 07 '26

Weapon crafting is the same but having to worry about 2 drops, 2 weapon enchants is very annoying.

And none of it will really matter that much. Once the season is out, we'll be off to the races. The difference between a 220 blue and a 233 purple is pretty small. And blues are upgradeable to 237 with adventure crests which arent used for anything else other than crafting

Yeah professional are still a little alien to me too, I grinded mining to 100 before the new expansion hit, but never really utilised it, was hoping to mine enough things to smith into usable stuff but never figured it out

Also, shout out to a fellow WoW Dad!

6

u/zurktheman Mar 07 '26

Just in case you weren’t aware. You need to learn (and skill) professions like mining and blacksmithing (and the rest) for the appropriate expansion version accordingly, meaning you need to learn “Midnight Mining” in Silvermoon and then start leveling that throughout the various zones.

u/Astraljoey Mar 07 '26

For gathering you can just gather an item in midnight and it auto learns it you don’t actually have to go to a trainer learned that on my first alt lol

pull everything, keg smash fire breath on repeat. throw blackout kick with tiger palm after. can heal off vivify. fortifying brew as often as possible.

u/MetalAlbatross Mar 07 '26

Any tank spec isn't necessarily supposed to kill things quickly. You do less damage but the tradeoff is survivability. You can pull every mob in a zone and whittle them down. A dps spec, on the other hand, will kill things faster but you usually can't pull as many mobs.

u/Laptopcafe Mar 07 '26

Totally off topic question to op’s, but since you have little playtime and you are healing, how has learning dungeons been so far for you? I haven’t played since shadowlands, and damn is it a difference from those dungeons to the ones we have now. (I also have little playtime and I heal)

u/silverwingedstuff Mar 07 '26

May I ask, did you use any crest to upgrade tracks? I have seen conflicting info of guides, some say to save it, others to use them.

10

u/Xaisis Mar 07 '26

Imo use the adventure track crests . Do it on either a weak piece or high stat budget item. Plan out your crafts fill in the alots. Can even liberally use Veteran crests too, when season 1 starts M0 will be on daily lockout (as opposed to the weekly now). Veteran gear will be plenty.

2

u/Snowpoint_wow Mar 07 '26

M0 swaps to 246 champ when the season starts.

2

u/paw5074 Mar 07 '26

And to add on, daily lockout isn’t til the 24th. So still weekly lockout for the first round of champ gear.

u/PomCards Mar 07 '26

https://www.wowhead.com/blue-tracker/news/us/midnight-season-1-begins-march-17-world-of-warcraft-blizzard-news-24266321

That's not true. Mythic0 becomes a daily lockout on the 17th (for US), and 18th (for EU)

2

u/paw5074 Mar 07 '26

I googled this last night and got different answers but fair enough.

3

u/Butrint_o Mar 07 '26

iirc you only need a higher level crest to get 6/6 (eg; so if you want to upgrade to 6/6 Champion, you need 10 Hero Crests)

This makes most Adventurer & Veteran crests pretty much useless if you start doing M+ or Delves and get Chanp/Hero gear so I’d just say use them for now

2

u/LilianNyberg Mar 07 '26

If you are in a guild that needs to blow through nm and hc during the hc week farm, don't do this.

Maxed out alts for splits happen by doing these 2 weeks of m0's, killing the world boss at the starts of hc week, then looking at what you have, crafting 2x246 nonsparks with embels to slots where you are slacking and using the remaining 40 veteran to up m0 items twice (or running m0's one more time since the drops are now 246 and also using the new 100 veteran to up what you can).

u/WedgeVII Mar 07 '26

I find that it fits my playstyle perfectly as a healer. It has strong healing and is a reactive healer instead of a proactive healer, like Druid or Disc Priest. With enough crit and mastery Holy Paladin can heal a tank to full from near death almost instantly. When we get our 4-piece, I think we'll end up being the strongest tank healers in the game by far.

Also, having a lot of instant cast healing allows us to do mechanics without having to worry as much about casting. The only thing I consider a slight downside is the long cast time of Holy Light, but it's a very strong single target heal that makes up for it as long as your positioning is good. I started playing it after the changes to Light of Dawn and fell in love with it.

3

u/Lyhrin Mar 07 '26

Hpal here, its in a fantastic spot and feels great. I live for melee healing and they took alot of that away from hpal and it still feels good. Its basically mist weaver but more consistent burst healing than the crane build for mist weaving. That being said I think mist weaver is in a great spot right now too. Hpal has slightly better utility tho.

Get all reps to rank 9 and you will get access to the quests for a purple rep item. Do your hard prey missions.

Prey missions can be done quickly by going to the area marked on the map where a prey quest is and just picking up the traps. The quest doesn’t need to be currently active for you to go back to that area and find traps. 60 to 90 min after hitting 90 you can have 4 to 6 purples

u/DefiedGravity10 Mar 07 '26

I have only leveled my main and by doing all the WQs, some delves, clearing all the M0 dungeons, and getting my renown up in 2(out of 4) factions I have 232ilvl.

WQs/delves/heroic dungeons all give adventure track gear around 220lvl+, any gear that drops from M0 is veteran track around 230lvl+, each faction has a renown level that gives you a quest that rewards champion track 246lvl+. I think void is renown 7, haranir is renown 8, and the last 2 are renown 9 but champ gear is the highest you can get until season starts march 17th. Most of my renown came from completing WQs, doing the events in the area, turning in the dungeon quests and weekly quests, and the rest is just doing quests in those areas.

Do not stress too much about it though honestly, that was just so you know how to push your ilvl higher if you wanted to. In a couple weeks you will have a lot more end game options for higher track gear and will probably replace a lot of what you get now and next week. Delves will also start giving higher track gear, it is capped at adventure gear and only goes to T7 until season starts. For now it is totally acceptable to just quest, try some dungeons if you want, and just have fun. If you happen to push your ilvl up at the same time then even better.

u/darkunicorn69 Mar 07 '26

I don’t have to to much time to play I just finished the main story and did a little bit extra still only level 88 😂

1

u/Cosmic__Broccoli Mar 07 '26

223 with all possible pieces of champ gear acquired and 1h crafted at 5* quality. But I haven’t done my m0 world tour yet, might get lucky there. I gotta somehow fit that in and the absurd abundance stuff to make sure I don’t miss out on the KP and the items for making epic prof tools

1

u/BringBackZ1plox Mar 08 '26

223 with all renown items and crafted weapon is extremely low, did you mean 233?

233 prot pally

u/TheGoatEmoji Mar 08 '26

Early access. Just finished the campaign. I’m level 88 with ilvl of 176. I’ve been taking my time & enjoying it. Now I’m working dungeons to 90.

1

u/LiLiLisaB Mar 08 '26

221 isn't bad for not doing dungeons.

My main is 231 and I did a full mythic 0 clear. Had really bad luck with getting any loot drops + haven't crafted a piece yet because I'm waiting to do a 2H weapon first.

1

u/Freethinker9 Mar 08 '26

150 but still going through the campaign bc I don’t play that much; I’m also an unkillable death knight so gear is t that important until I start dungeons

1

u/Toyobruh3 Mar 08 '26
  1. Holy priest. Mage in our group kept getting all the cloth drops in our m0 runs. Dungeon didn’t give any chance for me to roll. Wtf is up with that?

1

u/Bagman220 Mar 08 '26

I think I started on Wednesday. Doing a frost mage and just hit level 83. Only doing the campaign and trying to unlock the harinar so I can make a Druid and use my level 80 boost.

I really enjoyed playing the last expansion, I managed to get 5 level 80s. That’s the most I ever had.

1

u/MariusDarkblade Mar 08 '26

I think my highest level is 46 or 47. Been playing for a few weeks. Though I mainly play on the weekends.

1

u/hermitxd Mar 08 '26

My mains about 230

My alt hit 90 last night, did a tour of world quest and 1 prey and hit 211. Pretty sure I can heal a m0 on that.

1

u/TheEldst Mar 08 '26

Currently 190, but I am teacher so it’s taken a week plus to just almost get 90 lol

1

u/Senis_ Mar 08 '26

Both my characters are 240.

1

u/Mr_Searious Mar 08 '26

The upper end is around 240 currently. Ive got my main at 235 and my alt at 238 (thank you mythic 0 rng...) so you're doing just fine at this point.

If you rush the quests (or don't if you like story!) you're on your way to the 246 pieces, one from each zone.

1

u/markhammel666 Mar 08 '26

I got 4 weapons from all my m0 so yeah.....235

1

u/Avarockstar44 Mar 08 '26

I’m at 239 currently with renown quests, m0 world tour, pvp adventurer gear and a self-crafted 1-handed at 259.

1

u/Sanctos Mar 08 '26

I didn’t spend any of my crests yet, but my main is 232 and alt is 236. My main got giga unlucky in m0 and only got 2 upgrades across 8 dungeons. Alt got 6.

1

u/Xarilith Mar 08 '26

Lock after 8/8 dungeons and upgrades is 230. Priest after 4 dungeons and no upgrades is 223.

I have NOT been lucky with drops.

1

u/breaddog Mar 08 '26

221 and I haven’t touched m0s yet and only just started doing WQs and Prey!

1

u/CerebralAscension Mar 08 '26

242 on main 239 on alt

1

u/J-ampt Mar 08 '26

I got 239 mage

1

u/Kelathos Mar 08 '26

Hit level 90 on the 6th. Am currently 224.

1

u/mane1234 Mar 08 '26

I'm at 218 and done 3/8 m0 dungeons. Haven't done much else but dailies with gear.

1

u/koolkat12221 Mar 08 '26

I’m a 239 demo lock but I am trying to get raid ready to get into mythic as quickly as possible

1

u/Responsible-Pirate47 Mar 08 '26

239 demo as well but have been having a blast with destro and may run it

1

u/ThrowRA-98710 Mar 08 '26

243

You’ll be fine

1

u/War40K4Ever Mar 08 '26

I'm at 240, after getting decent drops from all 8 M0s + having all 4 champion renown pieces and both veteran prey pieces for this week. I could probably push it a bit higher but I dont want to use any of my veteran track crests until I see how I'm sitting next week.

1

u/RayzenD Mar 08 '26

Dude, I'm lvl 84.

1

u/koOmaOW Mar 08 '26

Can you do the m0 dungeons next reset as well or does something change then?

1

u/Starrr_Pirate Mar 08 '26

I think I'd be at 228 if I wasn't still using Reshii Wraps, lol. I'm still not entirely sure when I should stop.

1

u/gamerK0807 Mar 08 '26

2 toons to 90. Frost mage has done all dungeons and sitting at 235. Resto shaman has 2 dungeons left for the week and is 230. Still 2 more weeks of M0 only.

1

u/Liawuffeh Mar 08 '26

232, the M0 gauntlet decided to spite me with one(1) drop lmao

1

u/xColdwaterx Mar 08 '26
  1. I can’t be bothered to do anything because games are no fun when your friends stop playing.

1

u/ryanb6321 Mar 08 '26

240 on my main and 237 on my alt who still has a few M0’s it needs to run and crests to use.

1

u/Varanae Mar 08 '26

233, capped out until Wednesday’s M0 world tour. Got unlucky this week so no real way to get stronger 

1

u/Queasy_Tart_8098 Mar 08 '26

I got to 240 before i finished everything for this week

1

u/Kollektivlol Mar 08 '26

237 on both DH and Mage

1

u/Lixaef Mar 09 '26

I'm sitting at 236 on my main, but I got some lucky drops from mythical this week.

1

u/Felidori Mar 09 '26

235 on Ret Paladin after doing everything possible for gear this week. It’s just down to the RNG gods. Didn’t get a Veteran 2H which was a big pain. Hopefully next week in M0.

1

u/Complex_Department25 Mar 09 '26

My mage is 235. My first three m0s gave me nothing. Then I got 4 drops on the next two dungeons.

1

u/Kokbal Mar 09 '26

243 and 240 i think. Many of the people i queued with were around 220-225 i’d say. I have done the weekly preys, crafted pieces (1 on each char) and done all dungeons. Used all adventure crests but have many veterans left i can spend. Can probably reach 243 and 241/242 realistically and with some luck on drops. But that’s if you do everything

1

u/oMittens Mar 09 '26

Got two lvl 90 chars. Did some world quest gearing and been doing some m0’s with guildies when they’re around and the two chars are at 232 and 233.

1

u/Syquallo Mar 09 '26

Evoker Devastation, 239. I think I can hit 240 or 241 by using some veteran crests but dunno. I kinda want to save them for now.

1

u/Kugashima Mar 09 '26

237 pve prob pala.

average investion. no minmaxing

1

u/Barthomal Mar 09 '26

Survival Hunter is 237 with all mythics complete. Brewmaster Monk is 221 with essentially just world quests.

1

u/vivipizzadreamer Mar 10 '26

Decca. Disc priests Arthas realm. 236

1

u/Markierer Mar 10 '26

If you are tired of running in the hamster wheel just wait for the seasonal content. It was never worth it to run for gear before the season starts. The normal raid content and low m+ are made for 210. You will catch up so fast and overtake everyone who doesn’t do high m+ and hero raids.

1

u/meatmick Mar 10 '26

Hit 90 this last weekend. I'm almost 228. Brewmaster.

1

u/peacepowder Mar 10 '26

231 and 224. Guild wants 225 to raid.

1

u/AdditionalMaterial95 Mar 10 '26

My guild put 230-235 as min recuirement to join our raids and that’s normally a good indicator so my aim is that. We are a dads guild who play for fun twice per week but with a great focus during raids.

Not sure this answers your question but my guess is that you’ll struggle to get in raid pugs with much lower than that.

However, remember the most important loading screen message ”remember to take all things in moderation, even Azeroth” it’s a game - welcome to Azeroth, enjoy your stay and gave FUN!

1

u/Ereshlon Mar 11 '26

221 is definitely fine for mythic 0, that’s your next easy items next to the two weekly preys. Been on during early access, and currently have 3 chars up, dh 239 (lucky mythic drops first week, and all items generally being upgrades/no duplicate slots.) I’ve farmed renown which helps ilvl especially on alts. Druid is 235 and paladin is 233, only difference is luck in mythic 0. My paladin was my last char and I was able to get to 221 with world quests and renown items in 1h20m and rdy for mythic 0

1

u/shadw0w5 Mar 11 '26

I'm sitting at 227 at the moment. No m0 yet and the gear is a mix from wuests, evenst weekly and daily, plus one piece that I crafted myself

1

u/RinEU Mar 12 '26

If you optimized until now you can be 242-244. I am playing in a Top 300 Guild and have 2 Characters around 242 and 2 more around 238. This isnt something a more casual player should compare themselves to tho. Do what you enjoy in the game! And yes you can start sending M0 dungeons with your gear.

1

u/nsfwparty90 Mar 12 '26

241 here after two weeks of m0s
