Item level for new patch

Reading through the notes, I don't see them increasing the item levels yet.
Looks like a lot of things are coming in another patch?

There's plenty of quests marked "???", so we won't know until the patch goes live.

True, thanks for pointing that out.

There won't be any real significant increases until 5.4 when the next (and final) Eden raid releases. Right now we are stuck with what we've got, which will be about a 500 item level on average when it's all said and done.

No, uneven patches never raise the maximum ilvl.

There can't be ilvl higher than Savage gear.

The odd numbered patches can be considered to be "catch up" periods, as the ilevel for non-savage gear will be at or close to savage (the crafted can be upgraded to 490, the tome gear can now be upgraded to 500 without doing Savage by doing Nier or buying with nuts) but not go any higher.

It should be a tradecraft patch, so those ilvls should increase.
