So patch 1.11 released the keyring which allows keys to go into a separate container after obtaining a key.

With classic running patch 1.12 we should have this. Why don’t we? If it was disabled for another phase, I don’t see anything in the pinned threads regarding this and it seems weird.

I remember it was still there in WotLK, disabled in Cata or something like this. BC still had some keys that fir into it … WotLK didn’t, if memory serves.
they have addressed this, honestly you should google it before you make a forums post.

Ok that’s kinda weird. Thanks.
Figured they woulda put it in the pinned threads somewhere…you know, in that “Upcoming content” thread. But yeah I should scour wowhead first, true…

I believe it’s because Blizzard’s intention is to have items in their “most polished” format. It follows the same rationale as to why some weapons/armour are remaining at their 1.12 statlines instead of fluctuating with nerfs and buffs between patches, or why they removed the non-armoured 100% mounts in phase 1.
The logic goes that pre 1.12 changes were not intentionally adding to the game, but were a process of trial and error befoee arriving at 1.12 as the most accurate representation of the game. The absence of the keyring, therefore, was not an intentional “design choice” in pre 1.11.
They also don’t have any data from before 1.12 to be able to accurately recreate it, they talked about it at a Blizzcon panel.
