In Dragonflight, we made a change to our PvP gear that grants the maximum PvP item level of a piece of gear immediately at all ranks so that players are on a more even competitive footing within instanced PvP. Due to this change, we have removed the increased item level bonus from being active in War Mode situations, and players will notice the change to item tooltips starting in this week’s Beta build. Players can continue to spend Honor to upgrade Aspirant and Gladiator gear item level outside of PvP instances, but the item level in PvP instances will be unchanged.
