- 1) Heirloom items Bind to Account. This means you can mail them between other characters on your account of the same faction.
2) Heirloom items' stats scale to the level of the person wearing them.
3) Heirlooms' power is equivalent to a blue item of the characters level.
4) Heirloom armor pieces will transform based on the type of the gear the character is capable of wearing. That is to say Heirlooms that are Plate on a level 80 character will be mail when equipped by a level 1-39 character who can wear plate. Items that are Mail on a level 80 character, such as Herod's Shoulders, will be equippable by people who can wear Mail armor at level 40.
We wanted to add something to the game for people interested in trying new classes or who just generally love playing alts, and what's more fun than using an Arcanite Reaper on your level 1 Warrior
We are intending to expand where we use the "Account Bound" flag over time but for now Heirlooms are the only items that work this way. We also intend to expand the types of ways that Heirlooms can be attained but for now they are only purchasable via Emblems of Heroism (the new BoJ) and Stone Keeper's Shards, which are attained by killing any dungeon boss in Northrend while your faction controls Wintergrasp.
As for enchanting these items, they can only be the recipient of anything that you could put on a level one item. - Quote :
- Heirlooms do not cross any boundaries except those that you would expect them to. Plate items become mail pre-40, pail items become leather pre-40. A cloth Heirloom is still a cloth item. Currently the only Heirloom types available are weapons, shoulders, and trinkets, in time we will expand on this.

| I was thinking more like it will encourage more twinkers: Heirlooms' power is equivalent to a blue item of the characters level. I doubt the heirloom items will be OP or anything. | |
