I’m not splitting hairs you are labeling something a recolor that by what a recolor is… is not. If you are saying I’m splitting hairs by pointing out the difference in the gear designs then it is pretty obvious you yourself are aware they aren’t identical and that would make them not a what? Recolor that is correct.
You are totally missing the point they are releasing a Timewalking event for MoP but excluding Challenge Mode Sets which were introduced in MoP and what a large of what MoP PvE was. While advertising " you can obtain pieces that were only obtainable during MoP" but leaving out the most desired pieces they could of simply recolored and allowed people do go back and do CM Gold again…And that’s great 95% of a bunch of unwanted quest/random dungeon drop items aren’t’ what players want.
Go ahead and call them recolor remakes or recolor reimaginings then if that satisfies your semantics.
these legion class sets are supposed to look underwhelming.
blizzard purposefully removed the special things from the sets to preserve the integrity of the original challenge mode sets
are they 1-1 replicas of the challenge mode sets? no, they aren’t and blizzard intends it to remain this way.
if blizzard wanted to allow everyone to have exact replicas of the challenge mode sets, they would have been added in legion, but they weren’t.
So you just said it yourself they aren’t recolors after saying they are recolors? I’m confused on your standpoint here you just backpaddled about 10 steps along with the other person replying.
You also seem to be missing the point here read the response above so I dont need to repat myself.
they are the closest thing to a recolor that will ever be released, yes.
Again missing the whole point.
Realeases MoP TW event, indicates unobtainable gear can be obtained during event, doesn’t give recolor to the most desired items from MoP, but here you are saying they added legion class hall sets to resemble a look alike to them, so why couldnt they do that for the actual MoP event instead of a bunch of questing gear recolors and old raid recolors?
im not missing the point - i’m explaining that the original challenge mode sets are an item of prestige and blizzard has explained that they do not intend to undermine that prestige.
to release true recolors with all of the special effects will undermine the prestige of the original challenge mode sets, so those will never be released.
Weird, it only took me 30 seconds to read and comprehend that “wall of text”. What part of reading is hard again? xD
A recolor wouldn’t take away prestige in anyway from the Originals it is a recolor your argument is invalid. The originals would still clearly be able to be noticed as originals.
it would completely remove the prestige associated with the original challenge mode sets.
to allow new players to have all of those amazing special effects and great looking gear would undermine the challenge that the original challenge mode set owners currently have.
Those aren’t recolors.
No it wouldn’t because the ones who obtained the recolors would still have to do the same achievement the people who got the original colors had to. So they earned it too, they played during the TW MoP event and got it, literally your whole argument about the MoP CM sets… I’m not sure how you cant think this far ahead and I have to keep hand holding you through explanations.
Don’t waste much time on those trolls.
no it is not the same challenge in any way.
talents are completely different - demon hunters exist - evokers exist.
running Mogushan Palace Gold with a vengeance demon hunter and augment evoker is MUCH different than doing it in actual MoP.
sorry but the original challenge can never be recreated due to the many changes that classes have underwent since MoP in addition to the new classes created.
The Irony in you moving your own goal post in what a recolor is basically sums up the argument of Legion Class Hall set is a recolor.
here i will be specific for you:
the legion class hall sets are the closest thing you will ever get to a true recolor as releasing recolors will undermine the prestige of the OG sets.
Tunning is a thing I’m sure you have heard of it. Just as they do to TW dungeons.
Explain how players being given access to a recolor of the set undermines the original?
If that were to be the case, their value had been undermined years ago when Legion came out, since people are going to lump those sets and the CM sets as wholly one and the same.
ok how can you tune a vengeance DH to not exist?
how can you tune an augment evoker to not exist?
because the existence of these two specs will completely trivialize the challenge.
also: how do you tune the current class talent trees to be exactly the same as the MoP talent system?
you can’t ever recreate the same challenge, it just simply isn’t possible.
Yes two different color sets totally would take away from the Original no one would be able to notice the difference in anyway to determine who played back in MoP and who got it during the event. Very undermining of the ones who got it during MoP…
if all of WoWs player base was blind
