Druids got Mage tower forms for free in Retail

I wouldnt classify an entire skin model as the same as a weapon appearance tbh.

How about just wanting it because it looks cool?

I wonder how many people got canned for this mess up. It’s put blizzard in a really bad position, the MT nonsense had finally started to fade away forever. Only for someone to apparently not even test anything before launching the remix patch.

I mean, why only the appearances then?
They never really did this to legendary items which are far more complciated to get in their respective expansions nor did with order hall mounts in legion although they do it for AOTCs

Its just a wierd hill to die in, i have 3 MT appearances (well, 4, now) and would gladly give up on my ā€œexclusivinessā€ if i could get the other appearances for other classes i may want to play now or in the future but wanst interested in legion.

Wow there’s some really cool elite PvP transmogs that also fit my character, same with the corrupted ashbringer I guess I should also have access to all of these things just by logging into the game and doing nothing else.

Who is dying on a hill? I don’t have anything to do with this decision.

I’m giving my opinion.

It basically was free.

The tower was a joke for challenge.

Strolled in on my druid in free catch up gear and lfrs and one shot it back in the day.

lmao.

They were indeed being serious, sadly. :dracthyr_a1:

Some people are just really into their ā€œprestigeā€; The best way to fix the issue altogether this would be to release recolors but alas… I can dream. :dracthyr_comfy_sip:

i am afraid a lot of these people think that the appearances are as prestigious as a 6 figures salary. Maybe 7.

You have literally over a thousand options for most slots to pick from. If you are saying that your reasoning for wanting Blizzard to be more arbitrary, less trustworthy, and entirely flippant in terms of what they do, say that they will do, or make stuff available or not … is because you want one thing that fits your character; go and find something else.

Cool, so go and get something else since you don’t and didn’t care about playing the game to get the stuff that is locked behind doing content meant to be a challenge.

Again, there’s other stuff to get. For chest pieces alone for warlocks there’s almost 2000 options. Say that 800+ aren’t available and you still are sitting at 1.000+ appearances.

If you don’t want to, or didn’t care to, play the game to get the stuff - you don’t get the stuff. This is a bug and it is one that they will fix, and folks will cry endlessly about losing access to something that players shouldn’t have had access to in the first place unless one actually played the game to get it.

I never even thought to check the other specs’ actual weapons tbh… :thinking:That scythe was pretty rad.

Yeah. I can’t even remember which MGT models I liked, but there were a couple I’d like them to bring back. Wasn’t the Druid skins - I honestly like the Felbear better than the OG werebears. Was probably the Paladin sword or Demon Hunter glaives. I honestly don’t recall without looking through them. Some of those models were very nice, though.

I mean, true, and I’m not one to go crazy and throw a tantrum over stuff not coming back. I just don’t see why people are bothered so much. I don’t mind when exclusive stuff I earned gets re-released so I just … /shrug. I don’t get the big fuss on that end, I guess.

I think I’m a bit more understanding of things that took effort to get. Like the MGT skins/weapons. But even then, I worked pretty hard on the Brawler’s Guild stuff, and I don’t care if that mount was on the Trading Post either, so idk.

That category of challenging rewards does make more sense to me, though. As opposed to things there were just ā€œYou logged in during a specific month and got a thing. Congratz, no one new will ever be able to get that thing again 'cause reasons.ā€ XD

Watch people lose their cool over someone else maybe possibly getting ā€œunearnedā€ copies of something almost a decade later.

Express bewilderment at why they are losing their cool.

Get accused of ā€œthrowing a tantrumā€ over the subject.

:rofl:

me laughing at my friend who made a druid and didn’t get free mage tower skins

YES, yes they should be removed. You do not get these for just logging in.
