Remove it as an item and instead make it usable as an account-bound content/level-restricted toy.
Apparently there is somehow confusion that this would be used at level 1. No. That’s why I said “content/level-restricted toy”. This would just turn the Legion and BfA whistles into toys.
My comment was for making it for lowbies 21+ that are new to the game, or returning to the game that don’t have Legion. This whistle could be used in Kalimdor and the Eastern Kingdoms, up to Northrend, Outland, etc…
That makes sense but also makes the idea of turning it into a Toy even better as you clearly have earned the right to have it by then. It would be nice to save the bag space.
Hearthstones would make good toys too since we already have more than a few toy versions of the regular hearthstone.
i’d like the option to make use of it in earlier content.
perhaps tie it to the Loremaster achievements. so, for example, having Loremaster Outland, would let me use it in outland, and Loremaster Northrend would allow its use in Northrend, etc
this makes it a reward for doing the questing experience in these zones, so as to make it easier going through them when either doing old content or leveling new characters.
