    Ashbringer for everyone. Please reconsider...

    Can we please not do that
    Personally I would be fine if players get those other variations of Ashbringer, but can the original version, the one wielded by Tirion stays legendary?
    There isn't much time. Please reconsider this decision.

    What others think about it? Especially Ashbringer and Doomhammer. I don't think those two (the original versions) should get in players hands that easily, if ever.

    That ship has long sailed, besides Tirion won't need it since Ebon Blade will just give him a new weapon.

    too late.
    skins done, questlines done, talent tree done.
    now suffer the special snowflake virus.

    + i dont think the ashi will have much use in tirions dead and cold hands.

    You might wanna put a spoiler tag on that buddy.

    (I'm aware that quoting it exposes it to more readers/posters etc. so don't bother pointing it out.)

    I agree that lorewise the Artifact idea is both stupid and pointless, but the system looks great, and done well can add a lot of gameplay. And, as others have said, it's already done.

    Seems fine to me.
    Our characters are a big fucking deal in the warcraft universe by now. If we aren't making a name for our own weapons just by wielding them, might as well use someone else's.

    It's just 1 skin, the original one that bothers me.

    Well, people have been asking for a way to obtain those cool weapons.

    ...Apparently, they didn't figured out that, if one player can get it, the rest will be able to get it.
    And, if it was a realm-first thing, the remaining playerbase would produce ridiculous amounts of salt.

    I'm just glad Blizzard found a cool way to give more spotlight for those weapons, because they need it.

    And while it may seen easy by mechanics, it's still a important event in the lore point-of-view, which is a angle that this game is needing.

    I've been worried about this since they announced artifact weapons. Giving every single person who plays that spec an iconic weapon like ashbringer, or doomhammer, will make them not iconic anymore. I like the idea of letting us get these super cool and powerful weapons that we upgrade throughout the expansion, but seeing 8 billion ashbringers (even with the skin / color variants) will totally kill it for me. Just my opinion

    The time to ask them to reconsider was just after the reveal last August.

    At this point -- even if millions of players threw a huge stink and got them to change it out -- it would set the expansion back I-don't-want-to-guess-how-much time to change it to something else.

    It's only one expansion where they're relevant. The whole artifact system is stupid and lazy, just hope that whatever they come up with next is better.

    How is that different than seeing 8 billion of whatever the BiS weapon is from the current raid tier for each class? Transmog isn't a factor because you can still transmog your artifact.

    I have to agree with OP on this because a weapon of such importance like Ashbringer and Doomhammer shouldn't be duplicated and given out to every player.

    Honestly though how many people are going to leave it as the artifact skin, any of them? I know I've already got transmog plans for every character I've got because I'd rather go with something I'll enjoy than the look they gave us on most of the artifacts, coupled with the fact that I think peoples' special snowflake senses will steer them away from using the basic appearance.

    The artifact system is deeper and more complex than just throwing weapon drops on each boss. You're delusional if you think that it's lazy, by choosing to do it they made a ton more work for themselves.

    Why would the Ebon Blade give him a new weapon? He's dead and will remain so for now, he's not one of the four horsemen.
