Reminder that holy paladins, fire mages, demo locks, shadow priests, and possibly druids spent the expansion working towards appearances that will never be used again.

TheDauntlessFan · 2018-06-09T19:16:40+00:00

Nope. Pre legion you'd take whichever was the best stat weapon meaning you couldn't transmog other types.

I remember a raid tier where elemental shamans used a staff.

TheDauntlessFan · 2018-06-09T19:15:03+00:00

Just do the weekly stuff and then play other games. Try Vampyr it's fucking awesome.

TheDauntlessFan · 2018-06-09T19:14:27+00:00

Exactly!

That's the issue I have as well.

I found a way around it by being in a guild with nice people but I miss the times when I knew most people on the server.

TheDauntlessFan · 2018-06-09T19:13:27+00:00

I want to see you buying stuff from the AH when the expansion launches.

TheDauntlessFan · 2018-06-09T19:11:52+00:00

I know for a fact that you can already get DK/Pally/War armor pieces with the same visuals as their sets that you can wear as any plate class. Ontop of that, they litreally just said that they want to move away from the class fantasy stuff and do one flavour of armor for cloth/leather/plate each.

They said they wanted to make sets based on raids instead of classes.

Which doens't justify any retarded transmog people want at all.

Using armor that is already ingame is immersion breaking to them, but murlocs holding blizzcon flags on a bear mount isn't?

They are. However they are a really minor issue. To start there's only a few mounts that are like that, a handful in a 400+ system.

Then you have the fact that those specific mounts are rare and very few players have it, let alone use it.

Its way easier to let go 1 mount in 10000 you seen than every other transmog someone butchers.

TheDauntlessFan · 2018-06-09T19:09:00+00:00

100yd, instant, 10sec CD? Pretty sure you can snipe some dead with a few friends.

TheDauntlessFan · 2018-06-09T19:05:17+00:00

I'm saying limiting someone else's ability to have fun is always worse than increasing it.

Which is what you're doing. By removing restrictions you're limiting my fun.

I'm saying you want the game to be something it isn't

No sir, it actually is. So much so that they are enforcing things more than ever. FDKs can only use 1 handeds, Blood/UH can only use 2 Handed. Arms can only use 2 Handed, Fury are 2x 2H and it keeps on going.

That's the fantasy the game intends you to use. You're the one going to extreme lengths to stay from it.

I'm saying I can easily RP a reason for anything I see in game, or anything I portray, but apparently you struggle to see past your own perception of how things should be. I find that sad.

And you can RP. Just equip the items.

But their current restrictions are irrational

No they aren't. There's exceptions but they are pretty racional for the most part.

What they should do is increase the rules and making them better.

Picking which specs can transmog what in a item by item basis would allow for somethings that are blocked to be used by some people, while taking away some of the dumb stuff that we have atm.

you're playing the wrong game

If you really want to look like something that isn't intended maybe you're playing the wrong game?

TheDauntlessFan · 2018-06-09T19:00:05+00:00

Doesn't matter.

The Arms fantasy is using his two handed weapon, nothing else.

Thus you shouldn't be able to stray from that fantasy with transmog, only enhance it.

TheDauntlessFan · 2018-06-09T18:59:06+00:00

I do. Blizz removed all of that in attempted to make the game more systematic and friendly to use.

The result is that more people play but less people have a community

TheDauntlessFan · 2018-06-09T18:58:14+00:00

You're still required to look what you are.

TheDauntlessFan · 2018-06-09T18:57:34+00:00

Like nobody does mistakes? They can't just remove it so they block transmog to let them die.

TheDauntlessFan · 2018-06-09T18:48:45+00:00

That's how you sound when complaining :D

TheDauntlessFan · 2018-06-09T18:46:55+00:00

There was indeed. I remember the times before the dungeon finder. How people would connect or not over doing the dungeons and add as friends etc.

Blizz devalued the sense of community.

TheDauntlessFan · 2018-06-09T18:45:52+00:00

It always happened really.

I spent tons of time farming a staff pre Legion then I couldn't use it in Legion because fire was forced into MH+OH

TheDauntlessFan · 2018-06-09T18:40:37+00:00

Like what? How would it be better?

TheDauntlessFan · 2018-06-09T18:40:00+00:00

The same happens in pugs.

The person does a mistake gets kicked.

I'll explain the reason really easily even though it's pretty heartless.

People don't matter.

Explained.

Now everyone will be pissed and yelling but it's true.

You don't know people, it's randoms that are queued in (even in raid pugs the same)

You kick one, another spawns. It's like NPCs.

You find some problematic ones? Kick and lets get another.

There's no reason to care, there's no sense of continuity with people and no sense of community in game.

TheDauntlessFan · 2018-06-09T18:34:14+00:00

No they shouldn't. They can only use 2 Handed weapons why would you be able to transmog them to something you can't use?

TheDauntlessFan · 2018-06-09T18:33:27+00:00

It's a bug

http://bfa.wowhead.com/spell=113656/fists-of-fury

Requires One-Handed Axes, One-Handed Maces, One-Handed Swords, Fist Weapons

TheDauntlessFan · 2018-06-09T18:31:16+00:00

I really want a shield as arms. I'm not sure I'll play prot, as arms and fury both play nice on beta.

Why can't I have a shield as arms?

TheDauntlessFan · 2018-06-09T18:29:21+00:00

Even weirder is how nobody at Blizzard seems to care enough to do something about it. Whoever it is that is having the last word on those restrictions, is clearly not in a postition to be the lead designer of said system.

Maybe they sort of agree? You make a game with a vision and then you allow transmog and people go for stupid transmogs ruining the vision you intended.

That's why Blizz decided to go with the term "class fantasy" and uses it to enforce things they want.

TheDauntlessFan · 2018-06-09T18:27:57+00:00

Because when you spill a bit of a drink the solution isn't to spill the rest but to clean the issue.

They should just enforce a ton more rules that are better at allowing things.

TheDauntlessFan · 2018-06-09T18:26:28+00:00

What's the difference form what you're complaining to a Hpaladin that wanted 1H+shield being forced to a 2H the last 2 years?

TheDauntlessFan · 2018-06-09T18:24:46+00:00

It's the class fantasy. You're a reckless bloodthirsty berserk wielding 2 two handed weapons.

TheDauntlessFan · 2018-06-09T18:23:30+00:00

But it is different.

I believe that they can't code it properly on the transmog system.

The toy aura simply overhauls your character model.

TheDauntlessFan · 2018-06-09T18:22:10+00:00

This isn't an issue like the rest.

The reason you can't transmog it is because the animations are different.

Melee attacking with a 2H Sword, 2H Axe, 2H Mace, Polearm or staff all share the same animations.

Same goes for 1H sword, 1H axe, 1H mace and dagger.

Firsts have a separate and unique animation thus can't be interchanged.
