They could’ve probably picked a different race/sex to model it. I wonder how they do that, anyways, come to a decision as to which model will show off each piece of gear, like if it’s random or they try to rotate through them or if it’s just whichever is the most thematically appropriate.
As an RPer this is cruel! I NEED some of these items for potential character situations for my various (I have every class) characters and yet there is nowhere enough tenders to get all the transmog looks I want. To get even the most wanted ones I’d only have about 50 left which isn’t enough for the mount which I also want because pink/purplish-pink things are rare. :\
We need like a bonus amount every 2 months or something that we actually can make choices with. Because how can I call myself an RPer who RPs nobility and other fancy types and not have the evening gloves? And how can I call myself someone with several hunters played as variations on the ranger concept and not have the quiver and ammo pack?!
I guess I’ll forgo the quiver and ammo pack as I think I saw other color variations to be released in future and to be fair I only have one ranger who might fit with the reddish color scheme here (though good job on making it kind of earthy). So I guess it’ll be the mount and evening gloves for me.
Blizzard really should make the monthly completion reward something like a mount though or cosmetic ensemble, something BIG that most classes can use.
I don’t get how a CM main a priest or Devs main other classes that can’t use a weapon like this 1hand sword and don’t consider this issue…it should be like the first step of implementing a reward that targets the whole player base…Ion already said in multiple interviews that there’s X amount of type of player, so not everyone use an alt…I can’t think how this make it to live server while the previous 2 rewards where things for any player not matter class, race, faction.
Looking forward to that Fist Weapon, will be great for monks/shamans xmogs.
Apart from that, probably the weakest set of rewards so far. Those 1-handed swords look very average at best
Kinda glad I fell out of love with mount collecting in SL (Over 600 mounts on my EU account right now). That serpent really ain’t worth the cost.
Overall pretty meh month but that’s fine. Just means I can save up for a good one. Pity those swords are only one handed… maybe give fury warrior the ability to mog one handers over two handers when using titan’s grip? Or buff single minded fury to be viable? Otherwise pretty much a dead reward for me personally.
Son I am disappoint
Would love something that looks like those swords for my nelf survival hunter. It really should have been a whole set of weapons, or at least some more options than only 1h swords. I have few alts and none use 1h swords, at least not as ms.
am I missing something or? cus in stormrage it’s still the old items? but this post says to head over there now?
At this point the best solution is an hotfix and move the mount to the monthly reward…
I have many alt but i main a priest too so… with all due respect, the dev team should have either made these blades restriction free or make a Elune weapon set like a dagger + off hand for the others classes so no one would feel to be push aside.
On a side note, i roleplay a moon priest so an Elune themed weapon would have been neat.
Now that i think about it, when you put Elune as a name for a weapon, the obvious class to think of is the PRIEST before anything else and i shouldn’t need to explain why.
It’s just common sense but it’s true that when it come to the night elves stuff, the dev team lack of it:
- Moon glaive limited to DH. It’s just the iconic weapon that ALL the night elves players should enjoy.
- Futur Sun warden / Moon warden set: Does the artistic team remember that the Night elves never worship the Sun? It doesn’t seem so.
- Now blades with Elune as a name and the priest are left in the dust.
If you still don’t see where the problem is, then let’s say that the next weapon will be “Daggers of An’she”:
It will means that a tauren paladin aka a SunWalker will not be able to use it despite being the very class to be concerned with An’she from a Roleplay perspective.
Therefore a “Sword of An’she” should have been made.
The monthly reward should be something that everyone enjoy while looking forward to the next month with excitement, not dreading what will be offered next month because there’s the possibility to be left in the dust.
How disrespectful!
The Night Elves never get anything and then they finally get some sweet swords from their pretend robot goddess lady and now people say that a mount is more important!?
You’re a genius. Blizz, do THIS.
Will you guys stop spamming my email? I don’t care about the trading post. Make real content that is scripted well with no bugs and I will come back to retail.
I’ve wanted a new pair of flat white gloves for a long time, although these gloves look like they might go up a little too high. But wow, I’ll buy that quiver / ammo pouch in a heartbeat.
This is the new rotation which I believe is live tomorrow. Lemme see if I can get the timer for you.
With all due respect…I feel like the Do you guys not have phones? meme but instead is like “Devs/CMs, Don’t you’ve meetings?”
This is why I said that Usually Devs just focus on class balance, current content and there´s a lack of Reward discussion…I tought the Community Council could help with this problem, but it seems like it still exist, besides Devs play the game but I still wonder how this basic issue was ignored.
Yes! Cute dining gloves!
That sword… I know it is such a simple two hander but man… sometimes it is the simple things in life that kick butt.
