This item's source is no longer available (transmog)

you have 120 achievement points, what are you doing here? do you genuinely think that you have some sort of a impact on me what so ever? you need to wake up from your little bubble and understand that your words means absolutely nothing to me.

That is the wonderful thing about MMORPGs tho.

You SNOOZE you LOSE.

Keep up with the game or lose out on items, mounts, achivement and what not

In kindergarten I learned to share my toys with others, so yeah I’m all for it. :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Elite sets are prestige, they deserve to remain unavaliable. I’m going to be honest with you, knowing this community its not worth giving it back given how many fiends actively pay up money for boosties. The less prestige stuff they can bring back for pay to win noobs to splurge on, the better.

and this is yet another reason why removed items should be reintroduced (at no more than their original cost!).

we should start with the return of deathbone set from old scholo
are there any more old dungeon sets that were good to mog but not everyone obtained?

I mean, the method/gold cost with which the items would be reintroduced is arguable, but I definitely think that outside of stuff like CM/elite/naxx40 gear and similar “high prestige” items, there should be a way for getting them.

And if people are so attached to the idea of veterancy being attached to the items, making the new ones a renamed replica version akin to the DMF acquired sets wouldn’t be a terrible workaround afaic.

This is a completionist discussion…

@Marbelle, @Wwhelp & @Faboularian; you play your games differently & your goals are nothing like the same; YTH you’re even ‘competing’ against each other is pointless… and at some level you both need your heads banging together.

FTR - OG transmog. history was based on everything you have looted that had been soulbound throughout the game up to the point the system was implemented (mostly based on what your quest/Instance completion history was, I think); anything removed from the game should remain just that, short of being made available from sources like BMAH.

OP; it says more about you if the look you’re trying to put together requires items that you MUST HAVE despite being removed from the game files than any reasoning for the items in question being restored to availability.

completionist discussion? there is no competition. it’s right in front of you. i won.
my removed items has a higher count than this dudes playtime

it’s about the mentality. no changes

no changes surely is my fix, you’re right

… and to keep the discussion on topic, I missed out on OG Warrior Dungeon set Legs from OG Rivendare; “Oh, dear, how sad, too bad, never mind”…

Stuff happens, move on (OP; lookin’ at you).

I’m not ‘competing’ with anyone, and the things that I advocate for in regards to this stuff has a lot less to do with what I personally want for my collection, and more to do with consistent and coherent reward designs.

I’d be honestly a lot less annoyed over the removal of certain mog pieces if there was a consistent structure to what does or doesn’t get removed.

MC gear is still there for everyone to get, Thunderfury as mog has next to no exclusivity to it even though it’s a leggo, but some random belt from Sunken Temple does. The ‘cutoffs’ for these are arbitrary/random, which to me comes across as shoddy design.

I did my Loremaster during Wrath, I’ve got virtually every green quest reward mog for my shaman, I can’t think immediately of any pieces from removed instances that I just so wish I had, I just think the way the game has determined things to be removed is nonsense.

Also, if by dungeon pants you mean the ones that are part of the set, those are available as replica cosmetics in Darkmoon Faire.

If they’re the ones that you got from Stratholme & upgraded in Ironforge, then that OG set wasn’t ever in Appearance files as a set in its own right… and I’m not that bothered enough, now, to want the set that badly.

This set (and it’s ilk) is what I mean, all of 'em, both versions, available as replicas in Darkmoon Faire. And I don’t mind, despite having a bunch of the original pieces.

Blizzard kinda randomly introduces some of the removed pieces in other forms.
Like said DMF replicas, or the Defias set from old Deadmines, you have a light questline to acquire the full set as a mog. I don’t see anything particularly terrible in adding sets in such a manner back to the game.

ISTR that the Heirloom looks are the same/similar as the OG DS1 & DS2* so I got the look anyway. Some of the set pieces never got released as Heirlooms, but yes - the DmF replica sets fill that void, too.
*Probably why they never made them otherwise available.

Yeah, some of them had their likeness repurposed as heirlooms too :slight_smile:.

Like I said, the rulings on what gets the “privilege” of being some kind of super rare exclusive, and what gets to be the thing you see whenever you log on an alt was super arbitrary.

i know that is not true, because on my first ever toon, a human paladin, i had made and used the Khorium Champion. however, on this rogue after over a decade the plans have still not dropped for me so i cant make it.

and as such, the item is currently unlearned.

if it kept a log of all equiped items, then much more items would have been learned by people. all those items that dropped over 15 years of playing.

including the Khorium champion for me.

no, as far as im aware, when transmog was introduced in the Legion prepatch, the only history it counted was your quest completed rewards, and items currently in your inventory.

thats why people were saving up all their crates from the salvage yard at the end of WoD.
