I would gladly give up warforging/titanforging if I can earn tokens in order to buy the appearances that I like. Similar to the PVP Tokens in Legion and I could buy the appearances after the season. That should apply to PVE as well. I don’t even want item level or wearable gear, just appearances.
I don’t think they can fix enough in a patch to draw me back… I would want to see ap removed every class reworked to revert the awful gdc change and progression to be returned to a linear path not some wacky weekly quest.
I get they are trying to fix things it is just from my perspective the way to fix things is to bin most if not all of the new content and go back to a older model.
MoP was actually a pretty good expansion and so was the middle of legion. I would easily say BFA is the all time worst expansion. WoD at least had Garrison’s which was a intresting and offered a cool PvP battle island. The only thing BFA gave us was the cool leather mogs and more of a balanced class design.
