The team doesn't think that a small amount of players getting a legendary cloak after working towards it for an entire expansion will be a problem in the long run.
I was under the impression from what my GM said that 5 minutes after patch hits and you get to the timeless isle you hand in the 600 epic cape and get the legendary? What this seems to imply is that either people that busted their asses non stop might not even get the 600 epic version to be able to swap for legendary or that the simple had in on the isle in the PTR is fake. So whats going on?
