So I’ve waited for Shadowlands in hope for cool black/red Bows (Venthyr or Maw). Almost every weapon has transmogs except for Bows. WHY? I am a MM Hunter and do like Bows in general. I love Archers and when I saw the trailer (Venthyr) Red stuff and all that I got really hyped to make my Character like them. We have the set but there is just NO Bow. Only a CrossBow which looks awful.
Am I missing something? Or did they just forget Bows…
I have been checking the gear of all covenant, specially weapons, because I want to have an alt on each and well I’m a sucker for transmogs.
From what I gathered, they didn’t make looks for all weapons for each covenant. It seems they picked a few types of weapons that “make more sense” for each covenant’s theme/design and went with that. For example:
Venthyr has guns and crossbows for ranged weapons, no bows. While Night Fae don’t have guns.
Night Fae don’t have 2H swords, Bastion doesn’t have 2H axes, etc, etc…
To be honest, I understand it would take a lot of work to do 2/3 different looks for each kind of weapon for each covenant, which would result in something like between 8 to 12 different models for each type of weapon (covenants alone), not mentioning the recolors.
As for the Maw not having bows, idk the reasoning there, Nathanos’ bow in the pre-patch WQ did looks to have a Maw design to it, they could have done a similar one for it.
