Blizzard is.
They NEED to put this right.
Give all classes a new skin for their artifact weapon appearances.
It’s a simple solution.
That doesn’t really change anything to what I said.
Feral mage tower revolved around dealing a ton of bleed damage to various mobs. Basically, you’d apply your dots and stop attacking them because you knew the bleeds would eventually kill them. Then you had to prioritize your targets and avoid all the stuff (void zones, indiana jones boulders) that the game threw at you.
There also was a thing about Agatha herself that you needed to do when her energy was 100% ; I don’t recall what this was tbh, it’s been a while, but I surely remember modifying the UI of the focus target frame to get a better view of it. And it hasn’t changed on my UI since. Anyway…
You surely can’t have the exact same fight in SL, and you certainly can’t even have a fight so similar to Legion that you’d feel the same about it in SL.
Because back then, in Legion, Feral bleeds used to hit like a train, whereas in SL, the same bleeds hit like a wet noodle. Moreover, in Legion feral did not have Primal Wrath (which is a finisher ability that applies rip, the main bleed, to every target in range ; AoE rip in other words). In Legion, you had to choose which single target in particular was going to die from your bleed so you did not have to worry about it.
In SL, you just hit PW, everyone get the weaksauce bleed, then you spam your ferocious bite to whatever target has to die. The thing is that Ferocious Bite is a direct damage finisher.
In SL, there is nothing that supports the apply bleed and “Omae wa mou shindeiru” (you’re dead but don’t know yet) gameplay we had in Legion.
So… No, it won’t be the same. Not even close.
fyi, I did mage tower on my feral on the first day of the second week.

The idea is that you can do the mage tower on classes you do not even have the artifact. So the announcement is “so success in a Mage Tower challenge will now award a Legion-themed armor set for your class.”
That sounds quite fair. What is the artifact of the bear? It is not even visible…
I don’t know what you consider ‘fair’ mate, but THAT is not it.
Is it fair the artifact is not even visible at all for a bear? Why does a bear need a recolor of it?
It IS fair because that’s part of their class. It would be visible when not in bear form.
They should get the same treatment as all other specs/classes.
There is NO excuse that makes this inequality okay imo. None.
So either no special skin for them, just like all the other specs/classes.
Or special skins for ALL specs/classes.
The 2nd option will probably make a lot more people happy. So that one makes the most sense.
In inequality is giving everyone something that is visible while playing, and another class nothing. Blizz just tried to fix this problem by giving bear an appearence. We all get something now.
And tons of people do not have the artifact, so they can not use a new skin.

I wouldn’t say so. As a hunter I’d get an ugly UGLY reskin of an armor I will literally NEVER use, so in essence I’m getting nothing as well.
Of course they can. It will just be a cosmetic item that unlocks a transmog option in their collection.
i have bfa, sl and mop glad mount. its already boring enough that you can ride it with all chars nowadays.
time based achievements/mogs/mount are not bad.
the problem is that sl doesnt offer anything else in this regard as other expansions did.
mop cm, wod weapons (which i msised ebcause didnt play this garbage) or magetower in legion.
bfa and sl have nothing
Well sure. I am not using the mage tower appearance that i got since it is ugly.
The bear i am playing with dislikes the new MT reward. he is not going to use it. So he also gets nothing.
You’re arguing with someone who probably sells BIG ISSUE magazines.

Don’t make this personal.
I’m not attacking you.
I’m advocating for fair treatment for all classes.
Give everyone a unique weapon skin.
This would be solved by that as well. Everyone gets something that is visible while playing. And something a hell of a lot more exciting than an ugly reskin from an already ugly tier set.
Weapons are not visible for bears. It is not fair for them.
You snooze you lose.
Stop living in the past and just admit you are worse and move on with your life.
Obviously the shape skin IS their version of the artifact weapon appearance. As it was in Legion as well. 
You’re deluded and can’t see why druid is being given the skin. You’re a hunter, the blueberry set shows up on your character at all times. The same can’t be said for druid feral and guardian.
If you’re advocating fair treatment, start with class balance. Start with Hunter not having Battle Ress and everything else. No? Is it because classes are unique and should remain unique? You don’t and can’t shapeshift. Just be honest, you missed the weapons and now you’re trying your mighty hardest to get them implemented. It’s not happening.
And just because druid gets something, doesn’t mean you’re obliged to get something too. You’re not a Druid.

I am really not sure you even can use an artifact skin without having the artifact itself. Would be interesting.
people are coping so hard about the “prestige” that the CM’s or Mage Tower had, no, it had 0 prestige, everyone and their grandma could complete them, especially at the end of the expansions, all of them should come back with timewalking and make them as challenging as they were when they were released, just for current ilvl and power, so it’s not just free loot
Yeah that has NEVER been a thing.
The least they can do is treat classes the same OUTSIDE of combat.
We’ll see.
EQUALITY.
Look it up.
I think you can, now that they’ve fixed the issues the appearances had when used as transmog.
You can, they remade it so you can choose your skin in the barber shop.
