Classic server benefits for modern WoW

They should make it so we can acquire transmog gear, mounts and titles that will show up in modern WoW. (Arena mounts and titles for possible future WoW legacy/classic servers)

:-1:
No, they shouldn’t. And they won’t be.

Why not though? Just because?

This isnt changes to classic. This is modern wow getting transmog items from the characters from classic. It would literally have no affect on classic.

Would it not be best suited for the general forums then instead of classic?

with CE pets they let modern wow have an effect on classic so I don’t see why not

No I feel it can go both ways since it’s relating one to the other. I don’t want changes made to classic. I just want benefits from classic servers on modern WoW. So basically want the ability to “go back in time” to be able to gain achievements, mounts, titles and transmog gear of all kinds including gladiator titles and mounts but wont affect the classic servers at all for their time. it will just affect and add onto your account in modern WoW.

And once again:… classic isn’t a side game for retail. The motivation to play classic should be playing classic

Oh people have explained in depth the issues with transmog. You clearly are tuning them out

I disagree. I think that a permanent reward system for modern world of warcraft from classic servers can only make world of warcraft as a whole a lot better and expand the game into a much bigger empire.

Transmog items earned in Classic taken to modern WoW would be the worst.

  1. We’d have a bunch of toxic, condescending people playing on the Classic servers who really don’t won’t to be there. How do I know this? From past threads on the subject where said people made themselves known.
  2. It would increase ninja looting in dungeons and cause more looting problems in raids than already exist in raids, and we don’t need more looting problems in raids, thanks.
  3. Transmog of any form affects server economies, full stop.

Well considering I used a direct quote from the classic devs I would say blizz feels the same way as I do.

There is no reason someone should be playing classic just to get transmog gear in retail. It brings in a ton of tourist who will quit the second they have the dress up gear they want. It’s not a good idea and it cheapens the experience for people who actually want to play classic wow

You need to learn how to use better grammar. Toxicity is still exists even with the players that want to be there. Your sense of logic is flawed.

You provided no reasoning besides you wanting it and you’re attacking someone’s grammar because you have no argument. Think you should just stop at this point

People playing for a reward in classic or as a “tourist” is still playing classic. Your reasons for not implementing this system is weak.

Yes it would. There would be an entire fraction of the community playing only for transmog and not interrested in the game itself.

I can’t remember the correct grammar, too cognitively impaired at this point in my life, and since you got my meaning I don’t think it matters. I explained the reasons.

Also, Blizzard is keeping the game as “two separate ecosystems”, in their own words. What is this about wanting to be rewarded for everything? Playing Classic is its own reward. So many of us dreamed of having this game for so long.

Go watch the video of blizzard sayings the same thing. This isn’t a side game for retailers. I suggest that you go find a different side show

They would have to earn it by actually playing how people did back in the day though. Everyone is just being a troll and giving weak reasons to not implement this awesome system.

People who disagree with you aren’t troll. Also, Classic is not some kind of side quest for retail. And you have no clue about how such small mechanic could ruin entire communities, and imbalance servers pop with players leaving once they have their transmog.
