With all these cosmetics now, does it still make sense to restrict armor types?
Cloth wearers can use this armor set which basically looks like plate armor if you remove the helm:
Meanwhile, plate wearers have access to bikini outfits.
Might as well let everyone use everything at this point.
No thanks, despite this madness, some basic RPG standards are worth preserving.
Pov druid : I wish I could wear cloth as resto druid.
Pov hunter : Iâm frustrated that I can no longer wear leather, so I wish less restrictions.
As long as Blizzard doesnât add by default the class/spec icon to the nameplate I am against this.
If they would do that however, I see 0 reason to have limitations besides class tier sets.
We already have look-alikes for class tier sets. So I donât see a reason to lift the restriction for those.
Removing armor type restriction will be so beneficial for the RP community.
Just imagine mog combinations! 
I think some restrictions could be lifted, maybe for specific pieces like shoulders or pants? Some of them have really cool 3d details that would go damn well with other types of armor.
100% this.
Definitely still support them.
I only support warriors and rogues being able to transmog the warglaives of azzinoth!!
Armour restrictions seem to be an outdated system that is âthere because it was always there/dnd did itâ.
Swtor ditched them and little to nothing was lost. ESO has them only very loosely and again, little to nothing is lost.
Wow clearly wants to move on from them but, as with everything blizzard, they thrash against themselves for years before actually going forward.
They can drop class only restrictions whilst theyâre at it tbh.
Depends .a priest wearing a whole warrior outfit would look silly for example .but you do you
Please, donât say things like this out in the open! My boy Anduin has been through enough already, he doesnât need comments like that 
Iâm long waited remove restrictions.
Since many cool class/restrictionsâs mogs I wanted make look better for my hunter.
Also Iâm tired cloth class be âdressâ I want make them less dress and more trousers with shirt.
Also clothâs shoes always look bad if was short
But, in an RPG, why limit what folk can use? Why not just take the blocks off and allow unlimited expression?
Yes! 1000 times yes!
Some yes. These? No.
Theyâre outdated restrictions that no longer make sense for the game it is today.
At the end of the day, anyone joining a battlefield without armor looks silly if you really think about it.
You keep agreeing with me, Iâm getting worried.
What can I say⌠Sometimes you make sense. 
Same as weapons. When, say, every second elf and every fourth troll NPC uses warglaives since vanilla while for us most of them are DH exclusive, and a fair portion of racial ones arenât available at all, it not only makes no sense, it literally puts us below random trash mobs. It would only make sense to at least equalize us with other members of our races, no?
What about this idea:
To motivate people to use armor that is appropriate for your class, they could make it a thing that when you transmog a piece of gear that doesnât match your classâs armor type, you need to pay twice the amount of gold.
I know many people wonât like this idea (and of course I would love complete unrestricted access without any catch attached), but at least we would have the option to mog into other armor types then and I believe with a rule like this, Blizzard is a little more likely to actually implement it.
Thereâs barely any RPG mechanics or flavor to warrant the definition left in this game at all at this point so Iâm like âwhy notâ.
I hate it but itâs too late. Weâre already almost at the point where everyone can be and do anything regardless of what you pick.
Faction, race, class, spec and gear doesnât matter anymore.
