Odd thing is too me, the titles from ratings in RBGs are account wide, any toon can where that which to me seems like a more meaningful thing than transmog.
They are not.
They 100% are. I have toons that have never set foot in RBGs that can were any of the titles I have gotten.
Never mind I am on a roll. Going back to my hole in the ground nowâŚ
Because youâre 1800 on the class you achieve it on, not 1800 on the classes you donât.
You just made a post about lack of Battleground content, and now instead of giving yourself something more to do, you want it given to you instead?

1800 elite set are not account wide, getting 1800 on a paladin does not give you 1800 on a warrior, so i donât see the logic in making rbg transmogs not the same as elite transmogs
Rbg weapons are account wide, if you get 1800 on a paladin you can buy the claymore and use it on a warrior because it is a weapon. Same can be said for current crimson 2400 elite weapons. WoD weapons were different than MoP CMs because weapons can be used by multiple classes, class specific armour cannot
Furthermore, giving everyone who has 1800 in rbgs full transmogs for every set would just remove whatever incentive transmog collectors had left to play their alts through rbgs (i only have paladins, if i reroll to another class i have to do rbgs on them to get mogs). I am 100% never queueing an rbg as a rogue/mage/priest if i can just piggyback off my 15 paladins
Those are seasonal rewards. Not Transmog from the 18 years ago. Elite sets are only available for one season. They arenât even RBG transmogs because if you have the marshal (maybe itâs grand marshal?) title from vanilla you can also access it on the toon that has it.
Oh, I didnât realize so many transmog collectors are spamming RBGs for vanilla transmog. I knew this argument would come up but itâs not a good one. If people want it to stay as an achievement based thing per class for RBGs then fine. But donât make the argument that people queue now for RBGs to get this transmog because very few do.
Most people donât queue on other classes for the transmog anyway.
I get you thought you had a gotcha moment there, but go read what I linked. The thread is specifically about BG maps.
Honestly a better idea would be to make new versions of the Grand Marshall gear, updated versions and put it at the 1800 achievement for RBGs. I bet that would get more people to do RBGs for those looks. Just silly to me the old vanilla gear is gated behind rating.
Good thing itâs an insanely easily attainable rating and not locked behind actual grand marshal
Insanely easy huh? The numbers says otherwise lol.
It is, rbgs throw mmr at you if you win two games in a row
Anyone can brute force their way to 1800 with enough games played
I really do not believe making rbg transmogs a âone and doneâ is the way to go
Solo q rbgs might help now that everyone is boycotting LFG. Better tank balance would help or outright making changes so that groups donât need tanks at all on some maps. Reducing group size from 10 to 6 and map size to make it significantly faster to put groups together would help. Adding new rewards instead of trivializing what rbgs have left. Seasonal hero titles instead of once and done to get the top end more active, maybe some pennant/back thing for 2100 or a faction themed flag of ownership toy at 2400, an âeliteâ version of the vicious wolf/steed which were the first vicious mounts introduced. Rbgs would be a great place to introduce âeliteâ remakes of pvp sets that never had elite versions like the tbc and wotlk sets
A lot of things could help rbgs, but i 100% do not support account wide unlock to all rbg sets on all classes for just getting 1800 once
They arenât even RBG transmogs lol. Itâs just vanilla gear gated behind rating. A lazy reward honestly.
What is enough games played? You realize the numbers donât back up your statement right? How many is enough games?
Again they arenât even RBG sets, they shouldnât even be gated behind rating in the first place. Like I stated above, why not make new versions of Grand Marshal gear? Like even just update them like they did with a lot of the t3 sets from TBC?
Good idea. No argument against this.
Most people donât even know these sets are locked behind 1800 or they even exist I bet. This isnât some thing that keeps people doing RBGs at all.
These are all great, but people need to start being honest adding more and more rewards gated behind 1800+ doesnât help that much. They need to start adding more rewards to get people to just do RBGs and add the things you mentioned above along with them. I feel like people just donât know what % of the player base actually sits belong 1800.
Pink haired battlemaster <3
pink hair best hair <3 now just need the pink recolour plate set to show up on trading post and i am beautiful
Youâre already beautiful T_T
Oh, pink and blue. Pretty. I forgot that they were adding new hair colors.
What color will you choose? It matters.
Dunno, Iâll have to look at them.
RBGs seem more active right now than theyâve been in a few seasons. Wasnât Hero last season like 2200 or something?
(Thereâs over 300 people whoâve broken 2400 for the season already, seems like pretty good participation)
I donât, either. Iâve unlocked the sets for a few of my toons, itâs a cool feeling to ride out to Area 52 and collect your prize.
I do understand the woes of farming 1800 in RBGs, though. I honestly like RBGs more than any other content but barely play them because I donât have the patience to link XP all night while people who can barely break 50% WL at 1800 MMR let you sit apped in LFG hoping some X class reroller will come along, and then want you to hop into Discord and listen to people argue 30% of the time. Lol
RBG participation is good right now, but I definitely think itâs a form of content that would be hyper popular if Blizzard added a tankless, 6v6 solo/duo queue option with 3 or 4 new, smaller maps. Thatâs how you coerce participation.
Did you read my post with your eyes closed?
You complained about no content, AKA nothing new to do, yet you donât have 1800 on the class you want an 1800 transmog on. Thatâs something that you havenât done yet, AKA new to you.
So go do it instead of begging for it to be given to you. Thereâs content for you to do, you just want to pick and choose what you call ânew contentâ
Lazy casual.
