The Real Reason to Bring Back Mage Tower Appearances

Yep, walk it back, buddy. :crazy_face:

I was really bummed out. I was like
 Okay they’re going to be lazy and not put much effort into this, but they’ll let us get a set that wasn’t really a challenge or what many kept because transmog wasn’t a thing.

Nope! No fun allowed.

I agree with challenging limited time content, but cosmetics anyone could’ve gotten being removed?

While I won’t make threads complaining, that is stupid to remove.

I was homeless in Legion.
I only managed to get my warrior one completed while sleeping on couches with my melting laptop plugged into a TV because the monitor stopped working, dealing with all my belongings being destroyed and stolen, and trying to figure out how to eat.

I’m neutral on them bringing it back or not, I’d rather all limited time rewards just go on the BMAH once they’re removed, but this garbage reasoning is - i cannot believe I am saying this - coming from a place of complete and utter privilege.

You can be against them bringing it back, but actually know how the real world works when coming up with reasoning against it, please.

That’s not true every class missed out if they didn’t get them. They are worth a lot more because there is no other class weapons like those appearances.

Druids Not being able to have forms due to it is just icing on the cake.

I didn’t have a lot of free time and only my monk/hunter got their mage weapons before time ran out. I can’t even trade it for the druid ones.

there are people that may not even play their druid that have it and don’t use like I don’t even use my monks.

There’s tons of limited time content added to wow and there’s gonna be more. These weapon looks are just a HUGE thing and it was already effortless to get them at end of xpack I see no logical reason to not give us them other then make people who out geared it feel special.

That’s a fair point. I over generalized.

I know, I had to go and put a coin in the Sarcasm Jar. Almost enough there now to buy me a cup of decent coffee.

Haven’t paid attention to anyone else’s appearance since transmog was added. Partially because when you look at someone you can’t visually see that they have good gear and also because the graphics in this game just make everything bleed together.

What’s your thoughts on the Opening of the Gates of AQ event?

Sarcasm, its such a difficult concept. Perhaps if I put up my usual “Puts another coin in the Sarcasm Jar” comment

Man, I suck. Sorry!

It’s a shame that Blizzard took the opportunity to throw potentially good evergreen content into the trash.

But, with the recent change in direction
there is hope :slight_smile:

Nope. You are not entitled to what others have that they worked hard getting during the time it released.

Honestly this FOMO BS from Blizzard is and has been a big thing going against them. i got all the mage tower stuff i wanted and they should bring it back for those that missed out, even keep the same level of difficulty.

Not just 36 (isn’t it 35?), if you count tints. 105 different weapon appearances that are just poof.

There’s a huge difference between exclusive (as in no longer available) and super rare. Super rare is totally fine and good.

I say bring it back with a color variant much like they did with the class hall gear and the Mop gear.

I’m not opposed to this at all.

However, I do ask; why stop there?

  • make Black/Plagued Protodrake available
  • make original Corrupted Ashbringer available
  • make Benidiction available
  • bring back Trial of the Crusader’s tribute box.
  • add Immortal/Undying titles, again

I think time sensitive stuff is completely fine. Having something that’s unique to each expansion is also completely fine. Mists CM sets, WoD weapons, Mage tower appearances, etc. I don’t think it should go any further than that but I think the way it’s been done is fine. This is coming from someone who missed out on wod weapons because I quit during that time. I also only have a few pvp elite sets, not even close to all of them and all of it is on 1 character.

So my opinion is that time sensitive rewards are fine. I don’t think having the mage tower appearances as time sensitive was over doing it, I think it was good. I think it should stay that way. I don’t think too much stuff should be time sensitive/exclusive but I think it’s okay that certain things are like the CM sets, CM weapons, mage tower appearances, etc.

New skins with a new version of mage tower would be good but I don’t think anything needs to be brought back.

Don’t forget the Vampiric Battling from that 3 week Kara event. As well as the Champion tabard and pet from the Chinese Olympics event. And heck, the original Argent Dawn tabard for those that didn’t get it. ( I have the last 3 but understand that others may not).
