Remix Arsenals

Community WoW Community Council
1

On Remix there are roughly a couple hundred weapons shared appearances that are available to learn. I believe it is close to 600+ sourceIDs for all the weapons that drop from all the different difficulties.
-Each of the outdoor zones in Pandaria
-scenarios
-dungeons
-every LFR wing collective groan
-normal raid
-heroic raid
-mythic raid

I may be forgetting one.

With so many of these appearances potentially only being available within the Remix event. Many players are concerned about time restraints to collect these items.
Part of the dilemma for many is how inconsistent weapon drops are.

Outdoor zones drops have a 1/5 drop chance versus the armor components when you are mass murdering mob nodes.

LFR weapons cant be traded with other players. Causing some to spend 100s of LFR to get their weapons. (All weapons).

Many people use an addon to identify other players in normal, heroic, and mythic that have weapons that drop they can use after each boss kill. Having that addon auto reply asking for the item in whispers.

The super short version of this in most peoples mind.
Arsenals?

The means to bronze up the vendor and walk away with weapons seems practical at this point in the event.
We all have the reasons, desires, expectations built up in our heads. Patiently awaiting the addition of Arsenals every downtime. Every maintanence. Every packet delay that causes a second of lag.

Thanks for listening.

We have 2-3 weeks before we reach a point of no return with completion time tables.
Many players that dont have excess time to throw themselves at collecting all the weapons. Those people that are waiting for clarification from Blizzard. The others that believe that Arsenals will be added soon.

If these two things dont happen. Its realistic to think of how much time it’ll take to hard burn the candle to run dozens of normals, heroics, hyper farm mobs for countless hours on end.

There are players that multibox with 2-5 accounts. Running themselves through all the content. Looting everything for all classes for themselves. Some of them have just finished 100% Remix collecting.
These most dedicated of collectors done after, which point are we on? Week 5?
Im actually unsure on that.
Vegitating after dinner watching the Oilers and Panther - Stanley Cup game.

Be well.

May we have an update / blue post stating if Arsenals are on the radar or if Remix is at its end version for the rest of the event.
You would put a lot of minds to ease with this knowledge.

Is there a particular reason why we haven’t been updated about Arsenals?
I’m amazed at how many communities and discords I see the conversation being had within.
It’s everywhere.

Live Free. Die Hard.

Good Evening.

Checking in tonight to ask for an update to Remix Arsenals.

If there are plans for an addition to weapon arsenals like ensembles were.

This would be pretty awesome to see I’ve been farming since it started but have yet to see some drops. Also, as a rogue the bows that I can mog do not drop so I have to ask others in group to allow me to grab them.

Welcome to the Thunderdome.

Where you only receive clarification if you defeat everyone in hand to hand combat.

Much to my dismay, I am not an excellent fighter.
What say you, Blizzard!

Shall I call Dr. Dealgood?

Did you know that the 7 days of the week are named after planets in our Solar System?
Fun and true!

Now that the tension is gone. Oh boy. Big ticket number here.

Arsenals.

I see you had a reduction in difficulty in Heroic and Mythic raids in Remix.
Great change. Give those last few weeks playability for many.

Of the many people and conversations I see.
Much love would be given for the addition of Arsenals.
Quick post.
Be well.

Getting close to the end of the event about three weeks away and I also hope that arsenals are added. If not I hope at the last the weapon appearances are added after the event ends in some format, for example like arsenals on the timewalking vendor in exchange for timewarped badges.

I can see the finish line.

It’d look so much grander if there happened to be a reference nearby about the incoming addition of Arsenals…eh, eh?

Deathroll, Blizzard?
Mano a Mano?
For the rights to Arsenals!

What a time Remix was.
As its essentially completed with one day remaining. I have prepared a few talking points.

This event marks one of the few in WoWs history that was either intially created for a shorter time span in house, before release. Having been extended to become a total of 3 months of availability.
It may have been built from the ground up to be as long as it was.

There were systems that were designed for the first time where “catch up” mechanics became available for a variety of hard sought after Toys and Mounts.
That portion of the system was exquisite. Many people tip their hats.

The vast array of transmog available was, if not by design, encumbersome. The implementation and alterations are what I want to focus on.

The ensembles, after the Bronze correction when players abused Frog farms, was well done. I think the time investment became a moderate thing even for many of the casual collectors. I say this with having conversations with many people on various platforms.

The weapons transmogs available leave much to be desired.
Outside of the unique appearances currently only available within this time gated event. Which may become available by another means down the road. Which we arent privy to.
The portion of the playerbase that collects everything, had by no means an easy go of it.
The intentions of Blizzard to provide the means for players to realisitically collect all content you ever provide, may not be a real concern for them.

I would hope it becomes as such.

Every community I am apart of via discords, forums, calls. There was or had been a considerable amount of conversation asking about the potential for Arsenals to be added.
As a member of the Community Council I had made numerous petitions asking for any answer.

I dont understand the limitions the CMs are restrained by to give a 10 second reply with a simple, “No plans currently” , “We have something planned in a future update involving these appearances.”
Truthfully, any reply.

I think it is unfair to your playerbase to not administer the game mode provided in a way that is sufficient to the standards of what the major aspects of the mode are.
I believe this was a core, fundamental aspect never addressed.

In closing, I think this needs to change for future content. It has to.
