The one character I have wearing shows up naked on the character select screen. Not sure that the bug is with that.
I havenât seen it in game, but from the OP, it looks a bit⊠Twiâlek to me.

The fact that no other game currency has been put in some other kind of shop aside from gold, and you canât use gold to buy any other kind of game currency.
The game has about five billion different kinds of currency to incentivize different kinds of activities. Valor, Honor, Conquest points, anima, dragon isles resources, shiny pet tokens, Timewarped Badges, and on and on, to get you to grind Heroic/M+/timewalking dungeons, raids, world quests, pet battles, etc. None of those currencies can be bought with cash, or gold. Traderâs Tender incentivizes ALL of those activities, and keeping their MAUs and time-played high with actual rewards instead of designing purposeful speedbumps and delays into the game and driving away frustrated players. It pays for itself without cash.
I know youâre REALLY determined to be a bitter bean, ranting about âPay to Winâ, but it just doesnât apply in most cases. It hardly applies in the cases in which you insist that it applies.

How much gold does it cost to change into the set? I would check but I spent all my chicken tenders and cant afford anything else.
You can check without changing. Iâd guess in the 600ish range. Paying to transmog still seems a bit silly to me, but itâs not quite bank-breaking.
You do know that people can buy a wow token for gold, right?
Blizzard allows people to use gold to buy things like arena carries (for conquest), battleground pre-made group carries (for honor), and mythic plus carries (for valor).
All of those currencies can indirectly be bought on the wowshop through the wow token.
What does it matter to you if the trader post currency gets put on the wowshop?
You still get your free 1000 likely. I dont see blizzard taking away the base amount since thats the incentive to keep your sub.
Im just saying its only a matter of time, especially when you have people like this who want everything and dont want to play the game.
Blizzard doesnt care about how much time you spend in the game per month, they only track if you log in once (IE: have an active sub).
How many hours you spend in game is not important to blizzard.
I like it on my shadow priest.
Provide proof of your claims for this and no people buying tokens to get gold to hire folk to carry them isnât making the game P2W

You hit the nail on the head.
I could not put words to it. But Something about the head piece looked a bit off to me. I was not getting a jester vibe, but something kind of⊠alien.
I think its cool, and its nice to have something sort of jester-like⊠it is probably as close as we will get for a while. But the little floofy thingies dangling from the hatâŠ(âliliripesâ according to google?) look more like Twilek lekku than a harlequin hat.
looks amazing and we need some re-colors⊠like a gray with black, maybe a blueâŠ
Whether you like it or not, the outfit is beautiful and refreshing to see. It is so different from everything else and very vibrant.
Ok.
Buy a token with real currency, receive gold from that real currency.
Blizzard allows people to buy carries in raids/mythic plus for gold.
You just got a full set of 418 gear by using real currency to buy wow tokens
That is literally the textbook definition of pay to win.
They should probably fix the fact that your head disappears, lol.
I like it though, made a new undead warrior and a new velf rogue just to sport it and level them up with the mog on. Been enjoying it a lot. 
I kinda like some of itâŠsince Iâm lazy do we know if you can mog individual parts or is it a set of jammies like the yeti suit?? I only want the head piece for a certain mog. 
Yeah, itâs a pretty prominent gap on my Draenei as well.

It just doesnât make sense for Blizzard strategic goals. If their end game was the cash shop⊠why not just add them to the cash shop in the first place?

BRUH I NOTICED LAST NIGHT! Idk if anyone poined it out but the middle âbellâ is an eye of Nzoth! Possible hint at the future of the game? Is DMF connected to Nzoth?
Except itâs not, in any way, P2W. Itâs P2Skip I give you that, but you get nothing for your money that you 1) canât get with currency earned in game; 2) canât do yourself with normal effort; and 3) requires people who have ALREADY COMPLETED the activity tou are paying for.

No? Whereâd you hear that?
All of the above sounds terrible.
However!
Iâm not opposed to seeing trading post items making their way directly onto the store AFTER having been on the post. Maybe 4-6 months after they debut.
They really need to do something with the shop. Thereâs hardly anything on there. Selling a weapon skin for $3 isnât a bad idea.
Selling a full transmog set for $10-$15 is a good idea.
They could sell NPC transmogs. You could get Varianâs shoulders or Jainaâs gear, or Baineâs totem weapon. EctâŠ
Edit: But only after they appear in-game on the trading post!
They should be obtainable for free from playing the game first!
