Weapon transmog

heya i was wondering what you all think about weapon transmog. its great blizz took a lot of restrictions away already and we can even transmog legendarys. atm i was hoping we would ever see players being able to transmog their weapon wether its a axe mace staff dagger and so on to transmog it in something else that your class can wield. atm i have great transmog sets i would like to use on a regular basis but would require a mace or dagger transmog. but problem is if you wield a staff you cant mog that into a dagger. wich i wont see a big deal why not. they let players run around completely naked transmogged yet this cant be done. just wondering what you all think :slight_smile:

To be honest I don’t know why the 2h to 1h, dagger and fist weapon limitation still exists. All 4 types of of weapon options have a melee animation output.

For example, it’s weird I that I can now transmog a main hand dagger to an artifact mace but, still can’t transmog it to one of the other shaman specs artifact mace skins. That, and the shield can’t be transmoged separately to one of the other shield appearances if I choose to do so.

Also, on my priest I have a 1 hand and off-hand equipped but, can only transmog to the artifact staff or dagger appearance for the currently selected spec.

The only class of weapons that could cause a few complications are if you wanted to transmog to or from a wand/ranged weapon to or from one of the above types.I don’t think there would be an animation to pair with that type of combination at present which could facilitate the crossover.

I’m also aware that there still could be some complications for melee specs when transmoging between a 1h and 2h weapon. Although, I have to admit I don’t fully understand the extent of the issue and therefore appreciate the limiting factors at this point in time.

In general, I do appreciate they’re trying to return a sense of class identity with the advent of SL and this is one of the ways they’re choosing to display this yet, there still seems to be a be a number of odd inconsistences with what we can and cannot do at the moment when it comes to the range of available transmog options.

AFAIK: Currently you can only transmog to a weapon that uses the same melee animation as the one you have equipped. The artifact weapons being exempt to that.

at least in SL titanforged and all that stuff is gone. now if i really wanted my mog to look good i went from a for example a 410ilvl staff to a 400ilvl dagger just to make my mog look complete and to the way i want it to look like. and thats noobish of me i know that but i am sure im not the only one that did that

Honestly, I’d want to be able to transmog any weapon to any weapon.
The animations are there, so it would be so nice to be able to transmog weapons at will.
The limitation is just an annoyance.

if it cant be done they could at least make it like the rest and make your weapon invisible. that would be cool aswell

Uuuh, hidden weapon, I’d finally be able to just use my main hand and no offhand(visually).
That’d be awesome!

yes indeed. thats the least they can do is give us the options of hidden weapons :slight_smile:

I think: LET ME MOG MA TWO HANDERS AS ONE HANDERS REEEEEEE because they look stupid on belf/velfs.
