    Hotfix: Crown of the Fire Festival cannot be used as a transmogrification source.

    Anyone know why they did this? It's been available for awhile to use for transmog, this seems like a rather random change. I believe they even changed the item to uncommon this patch.

    Yeah that sucks so much it's stupid... Used this crown for months now. Also used it on beta without problem.

    Can't understand why they had to change it on live.

    I made a ticket about this yesterday too and only received an automated response this morning. I don't understand why it was changed either.

    It was still a White item when I looked yesterday. Some of these decisions are so... random.

    This one goes into the headscratcher/just plain stupid file for me.

    That file is exceptionally large this expansion.

    Did this already go live? Because I can use mine just fine.

    Probably it was fixed in the meantime. Yesterday didn't appear on collection, today is available.

    Odd. I've been able to use that helm as a transmog option both on launch day and today.

    Patch Hotfixes: July 21

    Items
    Crown of the Fire Festival should again appear as a valid transmogrification source if you’ve completed the quest “A Thief’s Reward”.
    So... I guess it's back again? Hopefully it stays that way. I would think they would've said in the July 20th notes that they were just removing it temporarily as they fixed it, it originally made it sound like it was never intended for use at all - but I guess now it's okay.

    Yeah it's back for good, just saw it IG

    And I'm pretty sure the original intent was to remove the crown as a transmog item. They just reverted back with the "uproar" and because "why the fuck block it in the first place ?" which is obviously the best reason.
