Why is it that Shadowmourne and Warglaive set bonuses still work but the level 85 'fangs of the father' [Golad, Twilight of Aspects] and [Tiriosh, Nightmare of Ages]
Dont work? Where is the logic behind this? To me it makes no sens
Some of the old legendaries would give you a straight stat boost, but some would give more funky effects.
Straight stat boost - you can keep it, it won't be overpowered anymore
Funky effect - nuh uh, just in case someone works out how to abuse it
In the case of the rogue daggers, I guess it would be possible to use them to build up a big opener and macro equipping, unequipping?
Like a lot of things, we can't have fun stuff because some j8rk stayed up all night working out how to misuse them.

Soon as you get the bonus, if you un-equip them the stats vanish. Like with the rogue daggers you can use wings to slow fall but if you change weapons whilst the wings are active, they disappear

I don't know the *specific* reason the rogue daggers got stopped, but don't they give you instant combo points? Its the sort of thing that could be abused if you were quick and created the right macros. General rule is 'funky effect=don't get to keep it'.
Yeah, thats fair enough. Its a shame though, it took me about 2-3 months to farm them and now they're completely useless (I got them twice, so thats like 4 months - half a year and now they are completely pointless)
Would nice to have them back during MOP time walking

To many players, the old expansion Legendary (weapons) are akin to something to show for your effort, in a world where much of what we have is disposable, despite possibly paying a cpl. months salary to get it; less and less of what many of us buy is seen as repairable, it just gets binned/replaced.
Most gear we use in this game is usually only remembered as a transmog appearance - once it's been vendored, disenchanted or (more recently) scrapped; but items like Shadowmourne or Fangs of the Father will usually be kept in a bank, somewhere... to reflect on.
As to set bonuses for Warglaives vs Fangs, it may boil down to flavour bonus vs throughput bonus...
