If you are like many WoW players, you were probably expecting to see your ilvl increase when you started doing Blackrock Foundry. Being the next instance in progression, it seems only logical. However, up until this point, that simply wasn't the case. In fact, many groups found themselves with an average item level that was just barely above the loot they had previously collected in Highmaul. Bummer.
Recognizing the problem, Blizzard has recently announced that will increase the item level of all raid drops from all difficulties of the Foundry. This includes any items your character may have already obtained. Instead of an item level range of 650/665/680/695 for Raid Finder/Normal/Heroic/Mythic Foundry, the loot awarded will now be item level 655/670/685/700 respectively.
