These are not gold sinks. Gold sinks are things that take gold OUT of the economy. Things bought on the AH just make the gold change hands.

I did mean for anyone to be able to use anything.
I do see and understand the class identity though. Thank you
That’s not a gold sink though. Having all transmog cost gold is a sink. If only part of it is, then people won’t use that part. Now the entire system loses it’s point as a gold sink.
I dont think it loses all purpose. I feel like there are people who would pay to be able to use armor from other armor types. Just as people pay to transmog now. Some do and some dont. I know people who refuse to transmog at all unless its during trial of style (since its free).
Especially if they are doing full sets, it would cost quite a bit just as it does now.
Perhaps something else might be for other armor types to cost double
It does not cost “quite a bit” now.
I don’t disagree with that statement, but how it is as of now doesn’t bother me too much. With the method stated by myself, you would only have to pay the transmog amount 1 time, unless you wanted the transmog itself to change. The only gold sink for it is when I have to constantly update my transmog because of new gear.

Maybe not in reality but in my head it feels like a lot.
Yes it is a personal problem…
I think they should remove transmog mounts, increase the cost of transmog in cities or remove it from there too. And give inscriptionists the ability to make scrolls of transmogrification. Inscriptionists need more things to make/sell since they gutted glyphs.
I just wish they’d put the helm/cloak toggle back in the menu. I hate having to go back to town when my tauren looks goofy cuz they got a new helm. Before you say, “use the mount,” I don’t have one. I can’t justify the price. I don’t have a butt load of gold like many of you. If my gold gets that high, I’m paying for game time with it.

Transmog cost is absolutely ridiculous. Sometimes it’s around 500 gold.
I also have a lot of alts and enjoy transmog… it gets very expensive

Please no. That sounds actually horrible to me

I believe you. I can definitely see some of the regular trolls pointing out why paying for transmog is required and how game breaking it will be to remove that cost because apparently it will cause extreme hardship.
I doubt they will remove the cost but it would be nice so my newly created alts can sport the look I want for them.

Or blizzard could add more gold sinks to the economy instead of removing them.
But how will they force casuals to pay for WoW tokens if they aren’t doing carries and just running transmog runs and t-mogging their gear they gotta spend gold somehow!

Boost. I’m still interested in more perspectives.
Also, while yes there are those of you with mountains of gold, some of us still believe that transmog starts to get expensive. Especially with alts. Please agree to disagree
I think we need more gold sinks that arent small things like barber and transmog but important to keep economy in check because itll end up like swtor where everything cost 500,000,000 and up
I’d be fine with this. The only thing I’d ask for is that velf racial be changed so you can mog anywhere without a mog npc since that would negate the half off on mogs, and who uses void storage anyway these days?

Trial of Style should take place for 1 week EVERY MONTH.
Then you get free mog opportunity along with a fun event.

I think transmog should be free and we should be able to transmogs everything freely except class and racial armor.
If they need a replacement gold sink they could bring back the brutosaur and let people save up for it like past vanity mounts (or give us a new one to work towards) and/or remove all these stupid currencies and let us pay gold for everything again from rep vendors.

Perhaps a summonable NPC like the summonable mailbox racial for nightborne
