How can xmog still be broken?

How can transmog still be broken on so many characters? This broke in the end of january. JANUARY. It’s absurd it hasn’t been resolved yet. Hundreds of threads, thousands of bug reports.

This is an issue I expected to be resolved on day 1. What is going on? This is actually worrisome..

Welcome to the AI-fication of games. Where AI code breaks games and companies are too greedy to fix their products.

And it’s only to get worse from here!

Works perfectly for me, great when leveling.

But, then I only have one set-up per character.

“it works for me”

Ok gz, but I have several alts that are completely broken, and i’m far from alone considering the daily posts about this issue.

I have 10 characters that it works on and 0 that it doesn’t.

So I’m guessing that you use more than 1 per character or you’ve not set it up correctly.

It’s has nothing to do with “setting it up correctly”

Ok, so what is the actual issue?

I know some people were having issues when using more than 1 per character.

… yea, like…WHAT is broken about it?
The only issue i have ever seen people have, was that they kept trying to click the name of the set they wanted to use, instead of the icon…

On your character select screen, it shows either no xmog or random colours and pieces that you don’t actually have transmogged.

I don’t have that issue.

Before I did it this way I had issues.

Create the save, then each piece of equipment individually, click ignore and then save, then onto the next piece and repeat.

If you do that already, then I don’t know why that is.

Edit:

Did note the forum thumb nails don’t show the transmogs.

I assume the bug report you made was of the same quality.

I’ve had no issues with the system and have many outfits set up for different situations on my main and have mogged all my alts.

What exactly is broken for you?

I had an “issue” with Transmog a month ago.
I don’t know OPs’ issue but mine was the following: on my DK whenever I spec’ed into Unholy the transmog weapon didn’t matched the one it was displayed on the character; the appearance that was shown on the character was the hidden artifact weapon for unholy while on my Transmog tab the character had a different weapon mogged.

The “issue” for me was solve with the ability to select between the artifact weapon of your chosen spec or a completely different weapon like a polearm.
I did reported as a bug but now I wonder if in my case was an issue with the interface as in, the interface wasn’t “intuitive enough” whenever it offered the possibility to choose between artifact weapons and the rest.

I’m posting this because, for me, the issue OP has is unclear and it could be the same “issue” I had.

There’s multiple small bugs you come across if you transmog often, the character screen one I’d argue is the least worriesome since it’s mostly a glitch that corrects if you log on and off from the characters.

There are some character screen bugs relating to artifacts that don’t fix even with log-in and out, like the effects of the artifacts are just broken in character screen - for example Doomhammer missing lightning effects, so you can’t do proper screenshots at all, not in lobby screen anyway.

Persistent bugs with transmog are mostly relating to these Legion artifacts, for example Aluneth no longer speaks when mogged, and I haven’t seen it speak when equipped either since the changes, tho that might be a different bug. I’ve come across people saying that the demo lock and shadow priest weapons also don’t speak anymore since the transmog changes.

Another notable bug is “Hide weapon enchant” that just doesn’t work for some things like Dk runeforge enchants and Shaman weapon buffs, before if you had hide weapon enchant it would hide any and all enchants that are not effects of the base weapon model you were choosing, now it doesn’t work for those anymore, you set the mog to hide the weapon enchant and it just doesn’t hide it, you see it in the transmog window as hidden but when you close the window, the enchant is still visible on the character. Nevermind the fact that it costs gold to “hide” the enchant to begin with, when it didn’t use to cost before, and all other hides also don’t cost gold, it’s the only “hide” function that costs gold.

It isn’t exactly top of Blizzard’s priorities list. How long has the screen blacked out or froze when you start to look at the transmog options on your character?

Months.

Expect a fix sometime 2045

Many of my alts had their appearance broken since end of january, with the MID pre-patch. Random colours, wrong items etc.

I’m afraid imgur is blocked in my country.

The login screen will sometimes show the wrong colour or item but in game it’s always correct for me.

But even then, when my characters look the wrong way on the select screen, it pisses me off and is factually game-breaking (i’ve unsubbed because of this issue, game time ends in apr)

It’s not game breaking. Game breaking would mean you can’t log in or play.

You find it upsetting, I understand that.
