The weapons in BT are not glaives how hard is that for you to understand ? they are swords and you haventt given one link to disprove me or others .I want solid evidence that you can show here blizzard told you of there changes ?
The article states that none dh use moonglaives.
You do realize that the lore is bend for gameplay reasons ?
And I can link the sword version over and over again so your point is moot .
But where is your proof that blizzard changed it I haven’t seen one post from them stating otherwise else the weapons in BT would now be glaives and people not able to equip them .
Then the article is wrong.
Moonglaives are triple-bladed weapons, warglaives are double-bladed akin to a double-bladed sword/swordstaff and the Cenarion Wardens wielded weapons of the second type, not the first.
Unless you’re suggesting that such weapons only become “warglaives” if a Dh wields them?
Also if Warglaives are Dh only, how come there are Zandalari-fashioned wearglaives that drop in Zuldazar? The Illidari just like their expressive weapon design? If you do some lore-reading you’ll know that Troll shadow-hunters have been wielding war-glaives for ages. The elite Shadow Hunters of the Darkspear the Siame-Quashi (visible in WoW when the combat against the first Zandalri reunification was going on) dual wield warglaives that resemble the ones DH use sans the fel. Are you suggesting they’re using Moonglaives?

So can I with the warglaive version.
Look I am not going to spend two hours trying to explain to you that the Warglaives of Azzinoth, weapons of the first dh, are actually warglaives in the lore and blizz made them of the sword weapon type because of gameplay reasons. Be as obtuse as you want I Don’t have to prove that the warglaives of azzinoth are warglaives, and blizz does share this opinion since you are here QQing that you can’t mog them while dh can.
Trolls are a different bunch, they actually use warglaives as a Shadow Hunter weapons.
In fact I wouldn’t be surprised that when blizz decide to expand the number of classes able to be dh trolls get to be one but it will be explain lorewise by them being shadow hunters.
You have hundreds of weapons too, what is your point ? And they are, and I repeat because new Dhs keep not reading posts :
Dhs wield glaives because it is elven weapon, not because they are DHs. But because Dhs are elves.

We Don’t have hundreds of warglaive and I Don’t like the idea that everyone can run around with a weapon of type which was sold to me as a class feature.
But I can and have mogged them already on my 2 DHs which you have seen in this thread.
But the difference between you and I is that iam not selfish and I want every class that can wield them to be able to mog them.
You keep harping on about lore but you have brought zero facts to the table and only somebody with limited vocabulary would call somebody a QQer because they don’t agree with your selfish narrowminded views .
Then you concede that WGs are not a DH thing, because Trolls use them and Trolls are not Demon Hunters.
Whether blizzard “might” make Troll DHs in the future is irrelevant, because right now Troll aren’t Demon Hunters (and Shadow Hunters are not Demon Hunters either as Shadow Hunters are closer to Shaman or Priests) and they use warglaives, which means warglaives are not a weapon type specific to a particular class.
Seeing as Trolls came first, and Shadow Hunters were a thing, it wouldn’t surprise me if the reason nelf use Warglaives as a weapon of tradition and skill is because it harks back to their days and culture as dark trolls where the leaders of their societies (Shadow Hunters) used warglaives, which means technically speaking Warglaives are not only a Troll thing, they’re a Shadow Hunter thing which DHs nicked and tried to claim as unique.

I am not surprised only Dhs find it ook. So i propose all other weapon mogs are completely removed from DH’s.
heck lets leave only glaives for DHs so DH players can feel super special.

The Warglaives of Azzinoth are warglaives, if you can’t make that rapprochement then ask blizz to rename them.

They are not they are swords I have proved it via dungeon journal and wowhead they are just but a name the item is a sword .
Again gameplay, blizz decided to make the weapon type dh only because dh are it’s most iconic wielder. Like it or not this is a class feature now.

But they are not DH only ingame else nobody else could pick them up now they are swords.
Because I have had pair of glaives since TBC and thought it is good to have my nostalgia run again ?
I do not know… go ask Classic players why they wanted their classic. same reason I want my glaives! DH class, despite me having 2 at 120 is just so darn boring!
TBC and WoW in general is a big clusterf*ck of lore.
everybody knows that.
the warglaives were THE weapon for demon hunters. it is their heritage and it belongs to them. they should NEVER have been available to other classes in the first place.
this thread alone proves how many people would actually transmog them. this game would be Battle for Warglaives over night. no thanks.
and no, i don’t actively play a DH, even though this char is a DH.
