By introducing the new Invoker's Mantle shoulders, Blizzard is fixing a hole in Alliance gearing. In the cloth shoulder slot, Horde has the opportunity to get
Manto de castaño deshilachado from the
Lealtad a los dioses antiguos quest, while Alliance players had to use gearing options with much lower power levels.
The Invoker's Cord will help both factions by adding a proper spell power option where before, most casters opted to use the
Cinturón de Arugal because it has more Intellect than
Cincho de Ghamoo-Ra, which was mostly used as a PVP off-spec alternative. This meant that your best-in-slot belt had a relatively low item level, which felt odd compared to other high-level best-in-slot cloth items.
It is very nice to see Blizzard developers understanding gearing issues within this new version of Classic and actually going in and fixing them!
