Not sure where i read it, if it was a joke, or if i just had some crazy dream where i laughed at my own insanity, but i heard something about them condensing the damage of the newer expansions into something like 'Mega Damage!!!'
So instead of doing 848,956,157 damage, you would do 8.5 Mega Damage! or something vaguely along those lines... If its true then i think ill just sit here laughing a little harder than i already am at WoW.

Not hating, just reminiscing at how far the game has come in just a few short years.

It was a joke, Zhinrak. Apparently they're looking at some sort if item level compression to smooth out some of the huge jumps in gear at the old level caps, so the new expansion may start from a more sensible base. So that may mean people being back down to 20k health doing 3k dps, instead of 200k health and doing 30k dps.

Wouldn't that involve changing numbers on all the old gear though?!

I don't think so. They'd just change the scaling I assume?

Necro'ing an old thread... but it turns out this Mega Damage thing is for realz.
Seems of the two options they had (Making crazy Mega Damage or a big Item Squish to normalise itemisation somewhat) they took the easy option of just continuing with stat inflation.
