WoW Forever Gear Progression: Will Old Raid Gear Remain BiS After New Raids?
Will old raid gear remain BiS in WoW Forever? Learn how smaller power gains, long-lasting item sets, and possible soft resets affect your gearing decisions, with a practical two-ring comparison.
ONN summary
WoW Forever has not specified how many raid tiers older best-in-slot (BiS) items will remain competitive. Blizzard aims to keep some older raid items useful while introducing new, stronger equipment. The key is to assess whether a new drop improves your entire setup or just one piece. Players should compare new and old gear, considering set bonuses and stat improvements. The team wants long-term effort to matter, but the exact approach to cumulative power gaps and potential gear soft resets remains unclear.
