They were part of Legion. People didn’t play Legion and missed out on them. Move on. It’s a mog … for an artifact weapon that was relevant at the time but you’re not even using now. You’ll survive without it and shoulda been playing when it was available.
There’s an ideal Frost mog from original Naxx that isn’t available anymore. I didn’t play at that time. Nothing makes me feel entitled to cry for them to bring it back. Cause adulting is tough sometimes.
They need to add more mage tower stuff in general to be honest. It was honestly my favorite part of legion. Blizzard has to remember that cosmetics sell much better the HoA or artifact grinds.
I agree with the OP. I do not mind limited seasonal or yearly access, I do not mind having to work very hard for it. However I do mind the word NEVER. And it seems that Blizzard agree’s somewhat.
The MOP armors = now the class armors in legion re-colored
The Old naxx armor = Now in the BMAH
The Auction mount = Soon to be in the BMAH
The Old vanilla sets = Now available at the dark moon fair
Old re-colors that where taken out = Now green drops in Island adventures
Old Vanilla green = Can now drop in your loot crates from your garrison followers.
Blizzard plays it a lot like the Disney vault. These skins may be unavailable for a very long time. However when enough time passes and most of the player base has joined after legion we will see some re-colored versions of these skins return to us. And I am sorry if that makes you sad. But it doesn’t belittle your accomplishment, you will have the skin to show off and be proud of for a very long time. But eventually your going to have to let the next generation of WoW player enjoy these things too.
You’re right, it isn’t, but there are those who think that is why. I disagree with those individuals.
The reason is solely because Blizzard said “this is time limited” and that is it.
Class changes dont matter, neither does exclusivity to an expansion.
tl:dr you are only partially right, and mostly wrong.
It is more like:
Judgement recolors from undead invasions: Removed and stayed gone
Gladiator mounts: Gone
Challenge mode armors from mop: Gone, altered substantially and put in later but still gone.
Old vanilla sets that were not advertised to be removed permanently: in the game
MoP cloak: Gone
WoD ring: Gone
Elite pvp armors: Gone
WoD challenge weps: Gone
MoP challenge mounts: Gone
So really blizz has more of a history keeping things they have said that are going away, staying away. Maybe…do some research?
No they really really don’t. Most people are adults and understand that if something is limited time only, its limited time only and don’t cry about it in forums because they didn’t do the limited time thing…
A- I didn’t cry about it. Don’t plaster your emotions on me.
B- I did show evidence of things coming back and you showed evidence of things staying locked out. Gratz we both remember stuff. That doesn’t mean I did not do research that just means I didn’t choose to show the side that supported your argument as well.
C- Every single time I see you, you have been rude and abrasive. You make me wish that all human paladins had their text in dark brown in a 5 point font.
D- I disagree with you, and I will never agree with you… absorb that. You will never agree with me and I’m ok with that, I’m not here to talk to just you.
I don’t think it would work. Those towers were designed specifically around the Legion artifact weapon system, class design, traits, and legendaries. With classes, gear, and the Azerite system, it would either lead to them being too easy or not possible. The GCD change alone would make them a lot harder.
Timewalking is easy though. And changing health won’t matter. Again we saw what happened to the Feral Druid challenge. It was trivialized after the slight changes done in 8.3. Need I keep saying this?
So it’s the magical thing known as ignoring things that go against your narrative.
What do you mean by “old school?” Vanilla? Because last I checked Transmog only came into play in Cata. Also that’s just simply not true.
I’m all okay with more challenges, just not the revival of challenges and their limited time rewards.

You disable azerite traits accordingly.
It isn’t hard.
You scale the content accordingly. Again, not hard, just a numbers matter.
I find it particularly ironic you provide an explanation for your own behaviors dude. Do provide where I have ignored your statements.
Which didn’t matter because people would keep the old sets as a testament to their accomplishments..
Having that armor set and walking around in it because it was a raid set was prestige. It didn’t matter that transmog wasn’t a thing until Cata.
This statement of yours is bred from a desire to be right about something and it is completely nonsensical.
People didn’t raid purely for the ilvl. It didn’t matter because once you had the raid gear, the content was trivial. Having the raid gear period was enough to say “I did this content and beat it.”.
it was about the looks and prestige and achievements.
There is a reason people who kept their old Naxxramas sets hold onto them so dearly dude.
The challenges should come back. The MoP and WoD legendary quest lines should come back, access to Ordos should be provided, and the Mage Tower challenges return.
But the rewards should not.
Part of the reason that I got all 36 was because they were time limited, so I pushed myself to get the classes ready for the challenges and hashed them out. I was proud of that, and it’s that pride that pushes me to continue going after other time limited items.
The AH mount should have been introduced initially as a time limited event, before the one Pandaren with the chip on their shoulder brings it up again (as I already see them in the thread). The way it was handled vs. how the Mage Tower was handled is the main issue here.
That’s pretty stupid itself…the difference being mage tower WAS KNOWN FROM THE BEGINNING IT WAS LIMITED TIME.
If you didn’t get what you wanted, tough luck and go cry some more. The only thing i could possibly agree with is the current tier mythic mount being removed after it isn’t current, i could agree with that but the rest of what you said is a silly comparison.
