Give Death Knights the access to Frostmourne appearance

I used to even be a death knight

I went back and looked I have Shadowmourne on both my warrior and DK so I think thats more than enough. Frostmourne has too much behind it to be used by common heros so personally I would perfer it remain shattered and part of WoWs history you cant deny how much it effected it.

See paladins/ including myself running around with ashbringer mogs, shamans with doomhammers, warlocks with scepters of Sargeras, rogues with the daggers that killed Llane Wrynn, etc, etc, and here we have folks freaking out over some players wanting a Frostmourne weapon transmog :crazy_face: This forum never lets me down :rofl: :popcorn:

He wouldn’t do this. If anything seeing it being repurposed might actually make him happy because he considered the original sword a blight. He sure as hell wouldn’t reassemble it for the sake of some puissant mortal’s vanity.

You don’t know that, you do not write the character

Even more than the flaming sword of fire?

I didn’t write the character. But I did play through the expansion on mulitple characters (at least 3 of which were necrolords) and everything about how he regards the forging of the helm of domination and a mournblade implies that he was horrified by it and the implications thereof.

So again: dude is not going to make a copy of it for some random mortal to hang on his wall

All four of those classes get the tmog of it! No need to make it mage specific.

Hmmmmm I’m not sure about that.

The Ashbringer was given to the player, including the corrupted version, but there is a justification for this.

Another thing to consider is that the appearances of the Windrunner bows were also given to hunters…

…but I’m not sure if that applies to DKs.

My line of thought is : in terms of logic: the Windrunner bows were made in larger numbers because they’re legacy bows of a family. The Frostmourne is a unique artifact that doesn’t have replicas or was “manufactured” more than once.

Now, if it’s just for appearance… I don’t see anything wrong with providing that either…but there is no “logic” arg for this.

edit :
the Warglaives of Azzinoth was a drop from illidan’s fall < justification.

Frostmourne was “destroyed” < justification to why there is a dual wield frost artifact weapon in legion expansion…

I agree actually, that’s why I was saying it’s more for appearance.

In this logic : other classes have artifacts from important NPCs, such as DHs, paladins, hunters, mages, warlocks (Gul’dan’s staff) - so I understand the point of having an appearance for DKs. One could argue that we even have a mount with the appearance of Deathwing… and there’s no logic in that…

So, going down THIS cosmetic route just for fun, that’s ok i guess.

so im a bit late to the conversation, but a lot of the lore about how DKs and undeath in azeroth operates was sort of broken in bfa. ex: there no longer is a lich king controlling the scourge.

additionally the lore about the blades of the fallen prince was sidehorned into the game into order to fit the idea of making frost DK a DW only spec, a move which has been controversial and disliked ever since. even before they settled on this idea, they had a artifact model of frostmourne in the game in case they went back to 2h.

Heck I might just go back dual wield on this guy to get the dual wield Frostmourne appearance. Just wish it was 2 hand

Just unlock all mogs for all classes, set the mogs free! picket signs

you just traumatized me…

As a DK I hate you!

Let’s make a petition so that Primus never touches anything from the Lich era again!

Only if you do so against the wishes of both factions. Kinda like the class Mount quest where you can kill a red dragon for the info.

Showcase your brutality…or your restraint. A rune blade is a weapon of great power, and the temperament of its weilder should change how it acts/behaves.

My sweet summer child

we have countless of examples of characters doing what they would never do in one expansion difference, Garrosh despise dark magic and corruption due to what it did to his father and his people, next expansion he throw his father weapon away, use dark magic and corrupt his people

And you think the primus would be different? get a grip

My sweet summer child

Garrosh was an irrational man child addicted to war, who lacked any core identity or morality beyond an overwhelming thirst for violence.

The Primus is Old in a way that I don’t think you can fathom. He has existed since likely before the first titan stirred. He has throughout his existance by all accounts been a thoughtful, rational strategist who forged the realm of maldraxxus on a rational, codified system intended to protect the shadowlands from any external threat. We also know that the one thing he seems to have ever regretted, to have grieved over was that he was made to forge a mournblade.

And yet we are supposed to believe he would do so again for the vanity of a mortal.

You know nothing of logic, writing or plot.

No, he despised Warlocks and Fell Magic. Garrosh Helscream never objected to anything else.
