Hello, I have one problem. Spells are doing 2-3k when i set level 255.
how can i fix that? thanks
Hey I know this is old, but it’s unanswered, I know the answer, and for some reason it was at the top of the list for me.
Stats are a bit weird in WoW with regards to levels. The same fixed amount of stat points results in lower percentages at higher levels. This is done to make lower level gear with lower amounts of stats matter less at high levels.
By raising the level cap to 255: well above what any of the armor, buffs, gems, potions, foods, or other sources of stat-boosts are tuned for, your damage and mitigations are all going to be incredibly lackluster.
I had a similar, albeit less pronounced version of this problem when I raised my server’s level cap to 100. My characters were weaker at level 100 than at level 80 with the same gear. To compensate without making changes to ALL the gear and stuff in the game, I added a buff spell to a shirt that requires level 80 to equip. The buff increases all your stats by a % and that % is increased for every level above 80 you are. By doing percentages, you also preserve the power differences between tier and raid gear when compared to each other.
There’s a ton of other ways you could go about this, but this is what worked for me. Adding a custom spell, item, and vendor to the game didn’t require coding or recompiling the engine, so that’s what I went with.
