5 intel & 4 haste gem ! So nice !
Avaible for f2p ?

i wonder what the rhyme or reason on stat changes on bc/wotlk upgrades is. i had a bc bracer gain a little, and a wrath neck stay the same beyond color text.

it's changed now. save you the trouble, there's +5 stam & a little armor, +3&2 unique all stats gems, and then you're down to the +3 and +2/2 gems.

SL Rares can proc Tertiary and Epic (EDIT, Wowhead shows that this Trinket comes with Leech, though it did proc Epic).

Indeed it is. And pretty much every 20 on this Website has been to SL Zones trying to get anything and everything like the Fishing Pole from Oribos.

can 20s even go to sl zones? i've not bought the expansion so idk. wouldn't you think the ability to upgrade sl stuff would be lvl gated like the legion dungeon stuff? seeing it on a 49 i don't think tells me much for 20s.

If this thread is still being updated, I got a WoD dungeon drop that warforged and got a tertiary.

Edit: oh oops I didn't notice it said both on the OP oh well.

Have there been any confirmations regarding WoD dungeon drops rolling sockets?

40+ WoD dungeons on a project toon, not a single socket.
also: green BoEs don't seem to proc terts.

i honestly think WoD's warforging/terting is to make up for the fact that there are virtually no rare/epic BoEs on the loot tables.

Still would be curious if WOD dungeons still proc sockets, guessing people gave up on this.

Would be useful for people who aren't subbed/f2p

Received this from a wotlk rare and it upgraded to epic.

Yes, rare specific drops can still go epic like in BfA.

Legion dungeons r bugged right now, but I’m sure they could proc tert stats at lvl 20.
I’m quietly hoping when Blizz fix it they can proc slots also.

Nah they dont proc anything

I've run a few wod dungeons and i've seen the following
Low levels can proc warforged
Someone who was level 44 ish(that was the item req) got both warforged and avoidance on the same item.

That group i was with included two people who played WOD, and one of them said sockets weren't available anymore and supposedly that possibility was removed when they took away multistrike. Obviously, take with a grain of salt. I actually went and identified what patch it was that removed multistrike, and it made no mention of removing the ability to get a socket proc from WOD gear, only that mulstrike was gone and the stat was otherwise just replaced with another thing like versatility. Wikipedia only says that socketed/tertiary was available to raids or mythic/heroic wod dungeons, but also may be wrong since they included tertiary and they definitely proc in normal wod dungeons.

Another person i've met was adamant that a socketed peice dropped in a TW dungeon.

if you're F2P/unsubbed and curious, i'd recommend running these to see what happens although i haven't done any research re the multistrike removal thing

if you haven't heard (this is mentioned earlier in the thread, i believe): WoD's apexis rares (rares that you can loot once a day) can proc sockets & terts as well.

yea i got some of the stuff with sockets, just interested in the dungeons at this point. Sort of the only F2P twinking loose end. Wowhead says something that can't be fully correct since warforging is available in normal

"Finally, Normal-mode dungeon gear has the chance to have a tertiary stat, and Heroic-mode dungeon gear has the chance to have a tertiary stat, Extra Socket, and/or be Warforged for a +6 item level boost."

Hey Andre, was that looted recently?
I tried a little while ago with a few rares and had no luck with WF, socket or tert.

Would be great if that was a recent item.

it's most definitely a recently looted item. RNG is just rough when you only ping it once a day per item.
