Taming Pets in Legion - and Level Scaling?

Unread post by Dialga »

Just a quick question - I've heard that areas will scale appropriately with players as they level through them. Such as Stormheim being listed as level 100-110.

My question is, what does this mean for the actual levels of mobs? Will possible pet mobs start out at level 100 as soon as we hit the Broken Isles content, or are there some that always stay a level or two out of reach until we hit 110? Just a bit confused.

They'll be whatever Lvl you are. Some might be a Lvl or so behind. So when you first arrive at the Broken Isles, almost every mob will be Lvl 100. The except is Suramar, in which most mobs are 110.

Oh excellent! Won't have the sob-story of any glitch pets getting removed before I hit max level like in Wrath. Thanks!

There was an issue where your pets are a level behind you. This matches the zones. When you advance a level, the zone NPCs stay at your previous level for a bit and it's done deliberately so you can feel like you're more powerful for a while. It's not good that your pet does it though. I'm not sure if they fixed it or not.
