Legacy Loot Coming to Legion Instances

I hope that this means that LFR Antoran High Command is going to be fixed. Can’t get transmog from the boss if the path to the boss never spawns!

you can enable growl though

This is good, but I still don’t really understand the reasoning of not having this active as soon as BFA launched.

As soon as the next expansion is live, the gear is already basically irrelevant for purposes other than transmog. While bosses might still require multiple people, the amount of loot from personal loot is always incredibly low without a full group, which very few bosses actually require. Those bosses could still be just as well served with a group/master loot system, as the importance of gear being dropping is much lower than current gear.

Nice thinking on this one, Blizz-folk. Gold stars all around. :+1:

You’ll get relics. And you will LIKE them.

Excellent change!! Much appreciated. I will be farming up N ToS for Diabloic Raiment for my Lock.

As a suggestion for Blizzard, since Legion relics, rings, neck and trinkets are pretty much nil at this point and at any other point in the game including leveling new toons while in Legion, can relics, neck, trinkets and rings loot be removed from the legacy loot table so we have more of a chance to loot transmog pieces for a specific set? I think the whole purpose of “Legacy Looting” is to collect the main transmog appearance pieces than to have rings, trinkets, neck and relics only for loot (which can happen).

Even when I still run ICC 25m, there are quite a few times I’d get x2 rings, x2 trinket or x2 neck in “legacy looting” on a single boss which does nothing to assist in transmog farming and puts more of a “gamble” to target specific transmog pieces. Do we really need to include relics, neck, rings and trinkets to the legacy loot table for Legion? If there were to be a change in the loot table, I’m sure removing neck, trinkets, relics and rings would be 100% welcomed since they do not provide ANY transmog appearance to the character.

Any clarification why Blizzard would not agree to this suggestion above specifically for Legion Legacy Loot table would be appreciated. I also could understand they may not want to make this type of change due to other expansions would follow suit If there were such a high demand also. Thank you.

Oh boy. You’re definitely new if you think Blizzard is going to sacrifice those gameplay metrics by making it quicker to farm it. Legacy loot is about it being worth it in the first place to try, buy they definitely aren’t trying to make it just a walk-in-and-get-my-xmog type of thing.

I’d love this for sub rogue, their appearances are kinda ugly but I love my sin ghost daggers

Growl just plain doesn’t do anything in most raids. Even if you turn it back on or use it manually, it does not generate any threat.

It was a stupid reason and apparently Blizzard is realizing that now that they’re stuck at home and actually playing their own game for once.

I’m definitely not new to WoW. As I stated it’s a suggestion. Not demanding. There’s a difference.

Sure. I guess my point was mostly, don’t hold your breath. The likelihood that Blizzard would even consider streamlining xmog farming like that is vanishingly remote.

This had better not be an early April fools joke :slightly_frowning_face:

Great change except Kil’Jaeden is still not pug friendly. The orbs still knock off 70% of the groups that attempt him.

And this is compounded by the fact that killing him to fast results in multiple phases overlapping each other, such as darkness phase with orbs in the corners knocking players off the platform while they cant see.

The more gear people get only makes this harder.

I am just adding a quote by using multiples character “>” (without the quote).
Each “>” is a blockquote html element.

These are the kinds of changes that players really, really appreciate. When we see changes like this, it really feels like the Devs see our frustrations, and are implementing things that can and will help players enjoy the game rather than feel like their fighting against the system in perpetuity.

A solid change, thank you a thousand times over for it guys. :slight_smile:

I mean, I wouldn’t really let them off the hook that easily, if I’m being honest. Them making token gestures like this is encouraging, but it definitely doesn’t forgive the dumpsterfire that was and is BfA, and how much time they spent telling us players we were wrong about things before finally acknowledging we’re right, and then implementing something that’s almost but not quite precisely what we were not asking for.
