Spellcloth and linen cloth, they are both types of cloth, they both make garments.
Therefore they are functionally the same. The fact that the garment made from spellcloth has a different numeric value to a garment made from linen cloth is not relevant to the equation. You equip both in a gear slot, they both are likely to have stats of some kind.
Yes, OK a spellcloth garment is better, but then again a Zulian Tiger is also âbetterâ because it is harder to make, just as a spellcloth garment is harder to make. But can a L10 use a Spellcloth robe? No, so what use is it to a L10 character? To them a Linen robe is far more valuable.
There is usually some kind of link between functionality and rarity, given that items with higher functionality tend to be harder to get hold of.
Lol no, thatâs literally not the definition of âfunctionally identicalâ - at least not one anybody ever meaningfully used in WoW or in other game.
When people say that two things in the game are functionally identical, they mean that they have the same game stats - that they work the same inside the game. Two items in WoW are functionally identical if they have the same stats. Two cards in Magic the Gathering are functionally identical if they have the same effects in the game (same cost, same stats etc). Two mons in Pokemon are functionally identical if they have the same stats/moves/type etc. Appearances and rarity have absolutely no impact on this. A foil card in Magic is, for all purposes, functionally identical to the same non-foil card - even if itâs much rarer and commands much higher prices on the secondary market.
Rarity has to do with how an item is obtained. Functionality has to do with how an item works. An item can work the same as another but being easier/harder to obtain. Seriously, is it really THAT hard to understand?

This.
If and when they announce that this is a store mount for TBC, I will be among the first to call them out for it.
But until such time as someone blue comes along and tells me: âYes, this is a store mount for classic TBC!â I am not going to lose my cool over some datamining.

Well I said âthe sameâ not âidenticalâ. If they were âidenticalâ they would share the same appearance and stats.
And to a L10 character, a linen robe is functionally âthe sameâ in that he can look at both, try them on in the dressing room, but only equip the linen robe, thus only the latter has real value, save as an aspiration.
The functionality of a videogame thing (which is basically 1s and 0s) can be entirely transitory, and itâs intrinsic value is dependent upon the state/space of the characterâs progression within that game. In all design concepts form must always follow function. In the case of the robe the function clearly comes first - it is a garment, it can be equipped. Personally Iâd class the âformâ as the stat weighting, but then thatâs just me and Iâm making an argument that is entirely philosophical, and one you clearly will not agree with.
Still, Iâm finding this an interesting discussion.
Ok Iâm seriously done with this. Itâs like talking to a wall at this point.

Oh? I thought you were arguing your case quite well. I didnât even realise you were antagonistic, I took it to be a friendly debate. Obviously not.
Still, if you give me the last word, internet conventions state that I have won the argument.
You surely will still play like all the others naysayer because you are too much addicted to the game.

Yes, how dare people support the game we are all playing by buying fully cosmetic things. Doesnât really bother me the slightest if someone wants to pay money to get a fancy looking mount or pet, itâs not going to make them do any more dps.

Go all in Bobby! Faction change, transmog, LFD, LFR, transmog. You should add M+ as well. There is an active hardcore community currently on Classic that seem to love timeruns and parses. They would love it.

To be fair shop for TBC will ruin TBC spirit, the 58 boost is a particular case.
This mount can be the classic version of the shadowland treant a free mount just because you play TBCC

It doesnât happy directly, but you can buy gold through wow tokens and then spend them in blizzard approved mythic castle nathria carries that fill in half of the group finder
ye a crap polygon mount, the game is dead go back to the private server with their own currency and tokens
I donât think people understand that to get a 100% speed mount in classic, you need to make 900-1000 gold (650 if youâre a warlock or paladin)
Being able to get a mount with real world currency in any way basically invalidates that and becomes gold for player power
