http://www.blogcdn.com/www.wowinsider.com/media/2009/03/librams-thumb2.jpgIshh over at Twinkinfo has some pretty big news for lower-level players (http://twinkinfo.com/2009/03/librams-now-require-lvl-50-you-heard-it-here-first/): the enchants, librams, and even jewelcrafting trinkets that used to work for almost everybody ingame have gained a few level requirements on the PTR. Twinks especially love these items, as they can be used to give big buffs to even low-level players, but Blizzard isn't down with that any more, apparently. Even applied enchants and Leatherworking leg armor (http://www.wowhead.com/?item=29535) will apparently stop working if this change goes out to the live realms -- they have pictures, as you can see, of enchanted stats turning red due to level requirements.

Most of the time, when Blizzard makes changes like this, they aren't actually targeted at twinks -- they're just designed to keep the game from becoming extremely easy at a given level (I'm still bummed that my Leatherworking drums (http://www.wowwiki.com/Leatherworking)have no effect after level 70). But obviously twinks are affected by these changes, and as you can see from the comments on that post, they're not very happy with having even more limits placed on how they can buff up.

But then again, as I said a little while ago, twinks have always dealt just fine with limits. Twinkinfo has a poll up on what twinks will do (http://twinkinfo.com/2009/03/omfgapollaboutptr3point1changes/) if these changes go live, and the majority of votes say that they'll just keep twinking. They've gone around level restrictions before -- a few more won't be the end of the world.http://www.wowinsider.com/media/feedlogo.gif (http://www.wowinsider.com)Level requirements changed on some enchants, items (http://www.wowinsider.com/2009/03/13/level-requirements-changed-on-some-enchants-items/) originally appeared on WoW Insider (http://www.wowinsider.com) on Fri, 13 Mar 2009 22:30:00 EST.
