I think this would be great to highlight the gear people earned in classic. Also, I think several players like their characters looking sharp. It also helps the RP community.
I’m not saying we should bring either collections tab or void storage, but it would be something to consider.
Transmog loses all purpose when all the items in TBC are mismatched except the tier items.
Just earn the tier gear.
You know I am for dual Spec extremely Answered and changes By if I’m being honest I think this one’s just to retail.
Most of the staff in the bernicre sake matches fairly well anyway especially your tear gear.
I get why you would want it I just I don’t think that the burning crusade as the place for it.
And I would say the same thing about achievements and pet battles.
Not this again…
The whole POINT of classic versions is to NOT have that retail garbage. Seriously ppl.
I’d rather look awesome in my tier 1 than wear the hideous Zul Aman gear!
Transmog is why gear looks like crap and is uninspired in retail. No. Hard no. Tbc gear looks great. Don’t ruin it because people would rather look like they play classic while not.playing classic. Stay on the classic Era servers if how your gear looks is that important to you.
…which still leaves you mismatched in most cases. We can’t all be Rogues, Mages, and Hunters where our off-tier items match both the color and the design of our tier gear.
This isn’t even close to true either. There are a fair number of completely unmatched one-off items in TBC, notably in T6, but there are complete recolors of Tier 0, Tier 1, and Tier 2 available to anyone that can wear that equipment. You’re going to see a lot of Druids running around with the grey scale version of Bloodfang while they try to get their T4 to drop, and even then many of us will still end up with gloves and/or boots that are Rogue items.
Not to mention there are the unique to TBC dungeon sets that have their own cohesive sets, with matching boots/belt/bracers, like the Wastewander gear or Doomplate or “of the Bold” set, etc.
No, the whole point of Classic versions is to get to redo the content as if it is fresh and new. The under-the-hood system changes, tweaks to QoL, and even rebalancing are all still part of that, hence the changes that have already been announced.
You can call it garbage all you like, but many of the Retail changes that have stuck, expansion after expansion, are there because of lessons learned by the Devs or systems they wanted to add but never got around to until a later big development cycle, like achievements, the mount/pet UI, and transmogrification.
I don’t think we’ll see xmog in TBC Classic, but I also know that xmog in TBC Classic would fit just fine since it was always tied to the Ethereals anyway and it made zero sense to have them just… show up… in Azeroth capitol cities at the end of Cataclysm while Deathwing was rampaging about.
Conversely you could actually put together a full ZA set and actually have it look good rather than be a mish-mash of Troll bones, fetishes, feathers, and tusks on top of the many blades and steel motifs of Warrior T4/T5.
Or rock your neckbrace set 
LOL? Some of my favorite xmogs in MoP and WoD utilized the current gear. Don’t blame the elimination of unique tier sets and their looks on xmog haha
This is why I like transmog. I’d like to sport the dungeon set or the pvp set compared to a mishmash of BIS from various raid tiers.
As long as I get an option to not see peoples transmogs. I am fine with your character looking cool on your end but I’d prefer to see everyones actual gear
No…it’s Classic…
You can transmog in TBC the same way you could in Classic. You equip the gear and voila!
Not to mention the whole point of transmog isn’t just making a matching set it’s so everyone doesn’t look the same regardless of how good/bad that might be.
Yuuup.
There are the “I want to make this set perfectly match” xmogs that look clean as can be, and then there are the “I’m going for a unique combination because these colors/themes work well with this weapon” sets, and everything in between.
The purple recolor Rogue T2 shoulders that come out of Heroic Blood Furnace were part of my first xmog in Cataclysm, along with various pieces of Rogue T8, the Eye of Nerub (or w/e it was called in Wrath), and the Cursed Vision of Sargeras. I always had a penchant for making ninja/stealth/dark themed sets to contrast the usual fare of leaves/bark/antlers for Druids.
I really liked the Heroic version of the Druid set from the Thunder King raid, combined with Cursed Vision and Damnation, a staff from WotLK Gluth.
