actually that’s true

How so ? Many things are unobtainable in this game, but players like you think that you should get what you want. As for transmog options, there’s probably a copy from the Darkmoon, or Trial of Style, or will be.
It’s interesting, I have heard numerous times that none of the methods of getting to Ordos without the cloak work, because no matter how you gain entry, you are ported out if you don’t. I’m not sure why this system would work.
I can’t test it as I have the cloak and would be allowed in anyhow.
There is a way to get the helmet, but unfortunately it relies on hoping it shows up on the BMAH.

The helmet from SoO is Shaman-only. The helmet the OP is talking about can be used by Hunters and Shamans.

Lol I just randomly go over and kill Ordos when I’m bored messing around on timeless isle didn’t know you still had to have the cloak to get over l Just assumed they probably removed that since the cloak quest was taken away.
So that’s what all those random pieces of gear on the bmah I see are l always wondered where they were from.
Never tried it, but maybe partying with someone who has the cloak and using a lootarang to loot the body?
I earned it

I wouldnt think that would work, lootarang wouldn’t have the range and even if you go with someone with the cloak, all they can do is get you across the gap to the gate (or they used to be able to, Im assuming they still can). If you try and go inside you get punted out.
I have tried this, unfortunately you get ported away before you are within 40yards.

The whole issue would be fixed if they simply opened it up. As far as I’m aware, it is the only content in the game which still exists, drops items and cannot be accessed by many players. I have the cloak and I have no issue with it being changed. Blizzard is just being stubborn about it. I can’t imagine it would be that difficult a bit of work to unlock it.

I’m imagining the cloak guy to pull Ordos close to the gate before killing him, then the other one uses lootarang while standing outside.
Or, since we are talking hunters, use Fetch instead of lootarang.
You can’t pull him close. He is in a boss area at back of the Sanctuary and if he exits that he resets.
Imagine the sanctuary is like a box. The door to the whole area is at the south side of the box and non-cloak players cannot get through that door. There is a separate part accessed by stairs at the northern side of the box where the fight takes place. It is beyond the range of any attack and he cant be removed from that northern area.
I just tried this, once you deploy the gg after clicking the statue, you don’t have any forward motion and go down vertically as if you had the wings. Will try with the wings on until I am out of range of the statue, but I don’t see it.
Weird, I remember Ordos running all the courtyard to kill raids back in MoP… He wouldn’t exit the gate, but he did leave his small boss plateau.
Fly behind his shrine from the water and try to land behind it and just snipe his butt, I did it on my DH and it works.
Apparently he has an aura that ports people who do not have the cloak away. You cant even get within 50yards to snipe him.
Once he is dead, it is possible to go to his spawn point, but his aura will port you away the very second he spawns. If he moves, the aura moves with him.
I tried flying in from the water and got ported away as well.
Sounds like he should have played during MoP.
Sounds like Blizzard should have removed the cloak requirement like they said they were going to instead of changing their minds at the last second. It’s a pointless and petty restriction that doesn’t benefit anyone.

That’s your opinion. I, and many others, believe that a small amount of expansion exclusive cosmetics are perfectly fine.
The guaranteed solution would have been to play during MoP.
