Fisherfriend of the Isles Underlight Angler cosmetic now missing with Dragonflight tool changes

I’m saddened that the Underlight Emerald cosmetic for the Underlight Angler fishing pole is missing from mine now that it’s a profession tool. I hope this is just an oversight and will be fixed since it took a bit to get and is my favorite fishing pole.

Yeah, I completed the Fisher Friends Of The Isles achievement and have the green appearance equipped but it doesn’t change to it. It just stays the normal color. Really wanted it to match my fel mog :frowning:

Just got the achievment today and it is still bugged. Nice job Blizzard you got rid of the enchants transferring from staves to fishing poles that looked cool and don’t address a bug that would allow us to make the pole look cool another way. If you turn into Bioware I will quit this game.

So I know this post is from 2022, but I figured I’d respond to it anyways since this is the exact issue I’m having now… in 2024…

Look. I get it. In the over all grand scheme of things, being able to change the color of a fishing pole in a videogame isn’t very important.
However, yall (Blizz) are making your new motto all about respecting players time and efforts spent on things in game.

Cant ya make a script line or something that overrides the colors after they have been unlocked? Maybe make it so the chievie mail gives us the green and blue variations instead of the now useless rock?

I spent 2-4 hours a day for SIX DAYS taking time out of doing other junk, to finish this achievement.

I get that its likely a simple oversight, but thats a tremendous slap in the face to the time spent working on such a time sink. To have worked on something taking a decent chunk of time, only to find out AFTER the fact that it doesn’t work anymore.

There’s not exactly a connect between the guides telling you how to work on the achievement, and posts like these talking about the bug.

Even on the wowhead page theres an entire 1 comment mentioning this bug and its someone asking if there’s a fix and its worded like they believed the issue was on their end.

Relogging, reloading ui, disabling all addons, NOTHING player side fixes this issue.

Blizz became what BioWare became well before BioWare became that, lol.

They won’t fix this any more than they’ll add +110 Perception to the Underlight Angler. The only halfway care about new stuff and don’t care at all about old stuff.

Also joining the please fix the Legion fishing artifact train. It’s pretty silly that I went out and got this so I could have the cool fish underwater swimming form and the walking on water thing but I have to…look in wowhead comments and run scripts to be able to level it up? I can only imagine how sad it might be for someone who is just doing legion content and getting excited about the artifact to have this experience be cut short for them.
