Artifact Power from Quests and Treasures Scales with Knowledge
Artifact Power from quests and treasures was confirmed to scale with Artifact Knowledge today. There was a concern that one-time AP rewards with lots of power would be something players would delay turning in until they had a lot of Artifact Knowledge to scale up. On the other hand, if the quest and treasure items did not scale up, it wouldn't feel good to return to old content to get a minuscule reward.
In addition to scaling Artifact Power items up, they also now grant a much smaller base amount of power. These items have been updated on Wowhead, such as
Valewalker Talisman

How the Legion Class Order Hall Campaign Works
Legion introduces Class Order Halls, a special place specifically for your class where you are able to see other members of the same class and work your way to leveling up your artifact weapon.
Along with these, Class Order Halls also have their own separate campaign, somewhat similar to garrisons in Warlords of Draenor, however these encourage you to go out into the world and explore even more so than you did before. Each class gets their own separate questline which sticks to their class fantasy as well as their followers and troops.

Order Hall Missions
