Next GD expansion and vanilla gear/specs

Hello folks,

I’m relatively new to GD and it’s always weird starting to grind a game when you know that an add-on is coming.

Here is my question : do we have any information yet about how the additional level cap and storyline will affect the vanilla gear ? In other words, will the expansion make the vanilla gear obsolete and should I avoid grinding for it since the add-on is coming soonish ? Also, will we have any form of respecialization options for mastery bars since the meta will obviously change ?

Thanks a lot !

The new level cap is 100, so there will definitely be new items that are improvements over the existing ones, they probably are not enough of an improvement to make the current items entirely obsolete but rather promote specialization a bit more.

I’d say the current items are still definitely worth getting, also makes it faster to farm the new ones afterwards (even if it means you find more duplicates along the way…)

I doubt we get any kind of respeccing over what we already have. I expect the new meta to be have 50 in either bar as you now have more points available anyway :wink:

As much as I’d like that, since it would mean less risk of failing a char in an irreversible way, it would render useless the whole mastery bar thing wouldn’t it. I guess we’ll see… thanks for the reply !

not really, on the way to 50 you still need to prioritize skills vs bar

yea the only exception I can see to what I said is the leveling phase, indeed.
