Straw Hat Account Wide?

Community General Discussion
1

I thought transmogs from vendors that require reputation would get account wide as long as one of your characters had the reputation?

You can buy the Straw Hat when you’re exalted with the Tillers.

It comes in plate version, mail, cloth and leather.

Do I haft to be exalted with the Tillers on a mage for example if I want the hat to be account wide for my warlock?

Currently I have the reputation with my warrior but I want the hat on cloth wearers, and obviously transmog is only account wide if it’s the same armor type.

:sleepy:

No as you need to be able to equip it to learn it so if you buy the plate one all plate wearers can use it.

Apologies, I don’t fully understand the answer.

I have the mail version. Could my hunter with the relevant rep go and buy+wear the leather+cloth versions, thus putting them in my appearance collection, but not do so for the plate?

You need to buy one of each i think.

5

Assuming it works like any other gear, your mail wearer can only collect the appearances of mail gear

This is what i meant.

So to get the other three you’ll need to level and rep up classes that have the particular primary armor type.

Blizzard should just label it cosmetic type.

Dunno if they changed it, I think there was a statement that Rep based gear would still be wearable on chars that did not have the rep, including tabards? But all I can think is if you buy something on a Plate char, all plate chars can wear it, so then you need to get rep with a char each that wears other gear to get the t-mog on all chars.

Yes, that’s correct.

EDIT: That’s a reply to Dorethien. Replying still isn’t fixed. :roll_eyes:

It means that only plate characters can transmog it even if they dont have the Shadowpan rep. They still require rep to buy and the appropriate primary armor type to learn.

Yeah but you need to have 4 different armour wearers at that rep lvl to buy them and to use them sadly as they are not pure cosmetic.

It’s the same with the shado-pan hat. Unfortunately, they came up with the cosmetic armor type later and did not bother changing it.

12

This is the one thing I can’t understand fully about the transmog system, being able to get gear on a character that can use it and not adding it to the transmog items, that only the “right” class can add it to the list.

I know people will say that Plate wearers will only do transmog runs but why not? I can understand with weapon types but why armour types? They can after all wear it.

I thought that’s what this was about!

Not everyone is a plate wearer, maybe.

It would be much unfair.
A dude that starts playing a cloth wearer later makes a leather wearer and has nothing to xmog on him.
A dude that starts playing a plate wearer later makes any other wearer and has lots to xmog on him.

Shado pan all my chars on my account can now wear it its now down as pure cosmectic.

16

I’ll need to have a look. It was not that way before, would be a pleasant surprise.

17

But since plate wearers can equip all types of armour they would be used if just equipping it meant it was added to the transmog items.

I understand what you mean but why allow a plate wearer to wear all armour yet cant mog all armour seems weird to me :slight_smile:

Its great as they also removed the rep behind it aswell iam so happy :slight_smile:

Edit you still need to be lvl 80 to wear shado pan hat though :slight_smile:

19

I know rep locked mog bar the tabard means you need the rep for the mog piece too cause i have the shado pan hat on my shaman and still cant wear it on my hunter.

this is strange because the last patched removed all rep gates
