A little idea I had while running old content, which, I thought could be fun… useful?
Blizzard should add a Black Market Dealer (Broker/Ethereal/Goblin) where you can hand in Trinkets/Relics/Rings/Necks for currency, granting you the ability to pick something from the Legacy Expansion’s loot pools .
So, one (1) Trinket/Ring/Neck/Relic = 1 Black Market Dealer’s Coin.
You need X amount to get something else, like 4 coins to obtain a different piece of gear (Helm/Shoulder/Cloak/Chest/Legs/Gloves/Shield/Off-Hand/Weapons) or 3 coins for (Bracers/Belt) from any loot pool in the Legacy Expansions. Bracers/Belts should not be priced higher or the same, as (Helm/Shoulder/Cloak/Chest/Legs/Gloves/Shield/Off-Hand/Weapons).
And there should be like, 500 Black Market Dealer’s Coin deal to obtain a mount from the Legacy Expansion loot pools. The amount is high, because there are so many Necks, Rings, Trinkets, and Relics available - either that, or a limited amount to trade in pr. week.
The Black Market Dealer should also have an internal reputation system to permit you to vendor at the start of the raid, and at the end, as well, at a level, get the service to be teleported out of the raid for a token ‘Pal’-fee of like 2-5 gold. You gain their reputation by doing business with them.
It is an idea made to not remove things that could either be sold to a vendor to earn some gold, or traded in to have a value to chase something else you might want? Prices can of course be altered to fit in for the trade system. The Black Market Dealer’s should then be able to be found in some ‘shady place’ to trade in your coins for items you might seek.
