World of Warcraft has successfully resolved a bug that caused certain Legendary items to scale to max item levels during the Dastardly Duos event. However, this fix has caused another unexpected issue, reducing some gear to a maximum item level of 1, making them effectively unusable.

Players can still earn rewards such as mounts, pets, and toys through this event, though they might encounter glitches as well. Blizzard is expected to address the new gear bug soon.

The Dastardly Duos event provides players an opportunity to battle waves of nostalgic enemies and bosses, gaining points based on their performance. Apart from accolades, players can earn mounts and various collectibles through weekly quests involving this feature.

World of Warcraft Dastardly Duos Bug

A new item level scaling problem has emerged as characters equipped with a Tabard or Shirt may face reduced item levels while participating in the event. Blizzard’s previous adjustments to the gear scaling system were not intended to have this effect, and players experiencing this issue can temporarily resolve it by removing the cosmetic slots. However, they may need to rejoin the Dastardly Duos instance to rectify the problem completely.

Overall, while Blizzard’s fix restored some balance, it ironically led to fresh hiccups, keeping players on their toes in World of Warcraft.
