We are lacking in the basic clean sleak longsword/axe department since 2008. Overly thematic blades with vomit on them, eyes, cracks flames, fire, rocks. Please release some green swords that are shadowlands quality, clean sleek, longswords. Add some colors to the hilts for variation.
The latest n’zoth sword is a perfect example of what can be a cool basic, themeless blade if you remove the tentacle theme.
There’s a pretty cool two-hander that drops from expeditions, the black and white one.
Depending on your realm it can be really cheap on the AH.
The sword from Archimonde in Hellfire Citadel is amazing too.
I agree. It would be nice to have some more toned down but high-quality adventurer sets for those of use who don’t like flashy gear but also don’t want to use armor that was stolen from N64 era graphics
There’s plenty of simpler design choices available, you just have to look for them. Just keep in mind that probably half of them are nearly 15 years old.
I like the more simple and clean gear too. It’d definitely be nice if they made a set of normal looking hi-res weapons for all the weapon types. Even if they were just sold from a vendor.
On a similar note, heritage weapons would also be very much welcome!
Truthfully Lord Ulthir, I would encourage the dev team to remake all the older armors from classic.
There are so many chain mail model, plain leather and ‘simple robe’ models that could have their fidelity upgraded and minor 3d assets added for depth. Would really give the RP community much more benefits.
It also has the added benefit of cycling scuffed textures out of the game. Which may have negative effects on newer players (Think of the feeling people have going from Cata Zones to BC)
Example: Overlord Set - Imagine that set upgraded. ((WoW))
