10 RBG tint for mage tower skin

How does this work exactly? Becuase i am going insane trying to find a definition for what you need to do, post Legion.

Does it need to be done ON the character that did the mage tower? Do the artifact weapons have to be in my bags? Do i need to be mogged into the skin? Can i do it on an alt or not?

It’s all very confusing, any help is appreciated.

Hey Bernfried,

Don’t worry, this all got a bit confusing when it re-released.

First off, and just to clarify, the artifact weapon skins from the original Mage Tower (these ones) are no longer obtainable, and haven’t been for a good while. They were only available during Legion, and the new Mage Tower has nothing to do with them.

The re-release of the Mage Tower a few months back brought with it a new tint for each class for their Tier 20 set, as well as a new really cool mount if you complete all of the different encounters once. The artifact weapon tints did not come back, HOWEVER, guardian druids got a little extra in that they can also obtain a variation of the old special bear form. This new guardian form is NOT tied to the artifact tint of the claws, you get it together with the T20 set tint for druid, and can just select it at the barber once unlocked.

You do not need to have completed the Mage Tower previously in order to partake in the new version. Simply jut enter it with any lvl 50+ character and try your luck.

Wowhead has a pretty good overview of it all, as usual.

Hope this helpls, and good luck if you attempt it, the new version is a good bit harder than the old one was :wink:

Yeah i did the mage tower on my (other) druid back in Legion and unlocked both the werebear and the disco cat forms.

I am simply trying to unlock the final tint for the skin i got back then, being the purple disco cat, and the black/white stripes werebear.

The requirement in Legion was win 10 rated battlegrounds while having the mage tower appereance active, but since i can’t do SL rbgs with a legion artifact weapon on, i don’t know what the requirement is to unlock it in post.

Oh I’m so sorry, I completely misunderstood your question :man_facepalming:

Unless they changed it (which I couldn’t find mentioned anywhere that they did), additional tints can be unlocked without having the weapon equipped or transmogged. It can just remain in your bag/bank, and any (for example) RBG you complete while having the base tint of that row unlocked will count towards the new tint.

Afaik, this also works across specs, so if you do 10 RBGs as a cat, you will also unlock the bear tint.

Sorry again for the confusion there. :slight_smile:

Edit: Found a Tweet confirming this, albeit from 4 years ago, but still post-Legion.

Does it need to be on the toon that did the mage tower or just any toon with the skin mogged? Because i can mog the artifact skin on this druid, but it hasn’t done mage tower, would it still count towards the achievement?

Since you automatically unlockd the Mage Tower base appearance for all characters of the same class on your account, even those created in the future, and since the unlock only requires for the base tint to be unlocked, you should be able to do this on every character of the same class. :wink:

Just to avoid any potential mistake on my end here, go to the druid order hall on your new druid and check the artifact station there, if the base Mage Tower tint is unlocked there, you’ll be able to earn progress towards the others.
