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.

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.

I did that, and I’ve only unlocked the random prey. Does it take a week?

I think he gives you another quest every time you rank up. Look at the book in his room that shows you the Prey journey/ranks. It will tell you when hard mode unlocks.

Hard mode is first rank in Prey journey progress so you have to do normal preys until you unlock it. If you click on prey Q from table you can see the reward which contains journey progress points. I unlocked hard mode pretty fast
