I agree. Its not fair. What they should do is make old elite pvp gear available to people who have 2k+ ratings or even make them prestige reward. Current prestige gear sucks ass just recolor variations.

No it matters in what you accomplish. The vanity rewards should be permanent exclusivity. Funny rhat youre also saying very best stats. Lets be real. This is fucking legion. Very best stats from mythic doesnt apply anymore.
Especially in legion. Grind like its hardcore diablo because thats absolutely how well they tuned everytjing. Assuming you play endless hours every single day with their slot machine MMO. And at the end mythic raiders dont get a single fucking thing in Legion in comparison to other expansions after putting up with the most bullshit tuning and grinding in the history to where time played and luck determines power level and not raw skill and content progression.

I'm not "flamebaiting" you- you're the one who seems to be very threatened, and are telling me I should "feed from the bottom where you wallow in your own cesspit."
I'm telling you you shouldn't care so much, and that it's not hurting you that other people are having fun.
And do you really think real life behavior has nothing to do with how we react to things in-game? Because that's intensely untrue. Nothing happens in a vacuum- the person you are in real life is still the person you are when you're playing World of Warcraft.
Except it does
I lose exclusive vanity items gathered across months when random pleb shits get it free later.
Why should i want 1 mog when i can have a closet full of outfits only 1% that put in the time get to have.
Thats the thing that irks me is ENTITLEMENT. I did what was required to gain them. Anyone who didnt donit while relant should wear a mix match clownsuit set or brown rags.
Frabjly im still miffed about the change post TBC that and again late Cata that allows fucking morons even into raids in the first place all in an attempt to appease the most unskilled unwanted players in the game.
It thrills me to see dtuff taken from average joe and billy bottom feeder. Because they deserve nothing in my book.
And done worry D. You wouldnt like me irl because i have choice words about our wonderful liberal and minority victim epidemics going on that would probably earn me a few more lables.

Do you by chance live in a dilapadated house with an overgrown yard and wear tattered clothes. Do the soles of your shoes flap as if they were flip flops and do you work as a janitor?
Oh no because nice things are nice to have yes yes

Well. I guess at least you can admit that you're an entitled jerk.
Anyway.
You don't lose anything. They lose the value you ascribed to them because they're now outdated. Go show off your skill and do the next thing.
I'm glad more people can be happy to get cool things, and I can move on to getting the new cool thing, show that off til the next new thing comes out, and so on.
If you care more about your own sense of entitlement and are this mean and nasty about other people having a good time? We're never going to see eye-to-eye because I'm just not that kind of selfish person.
TBQH, I don't care about it
I'm at 5/9M, but my guild is at 8/9M. I stopped raiding M ToS because there's no interesting sets for me there. Tmog is the only reason why I raid, I don't really care about challenge and prestige, I just want my chars to look pretteh If cool looking set drops in LFR I run LFR on that char, if cool set drops in M, well, I raid M.
But I don't care much about other people's chars, if I cared a lot I'd never create Ally alts because Ally has gnomes, and they're so ugly that it hurts my eyes. #gnomelivesdontmatter
One: Your argument works better if the challenge is maintained and accessible for people to do at any time. The reward should be granted based on overcoming the challenge, not simply having played during a specific window of time. I'm all for that kind of reward.
Two: The reward is in overcoming the challenge with your friends. The feeling of accomplishment at having reached that level of play. Placing too much of the emphasis on the trophy instead of the challenge is a bad precedent to set, even in an MMORPG.
I do lose something
Prestige ascribed the the armor and mounts is gone when random plebs everywhere have it. Your trophy is turned onto a participation trophy then and EVERYONE has that so whooptie doodlie doo.
No we wont see eye to eye because i dont coddle incompetent people and make them feel special. I give them a reality check that they are shit and will continue to reap what they deserve.
This is why I think Blizzard should put in the time and effort to update those challenges for current abilities and gear available in the game. Not only would the rewards remain accessible, but the prestige of them wouldn't diminish like you described. If you see someone wearing the same badass gear as you, you KNOW they overcame the same challenge as you and deserve it.
I haven't played in a while, and whilst I don't agree with anaxies extremely "elitist" view, I do agree that removing all prestige from doing hard stuff when it's current content isn't good.
I'm not saying the prestige was only reason I raided, but I'll admit that it felt nice to wear and have stuff most people couldn't get (at the time).
Even the minority (the 0.1% raiders) needs some kind of carrot... Though I'm not sure if doing it the way the OP suggested would be the way to go.
I remember there being some kind of achievement where you had to kill Algalon without anyone in the raid having higher than X ilvl to get some kind of special title, so you couldn't just go in two expansions later and solo it. We actually made lvl80 alts in Cataclysm and geared them in Ulduar/ToC10 to get the achievement done later on, which was still kind of challenging, required effort and was fun in the end.
Also, I really liked the MoP challenge-mode rewards too. Hard to get and only cosmetic (+they looked really neat, especially the Shaman one).

Really the mythic mog should be the only reward from mythic and it should be given after completing the tier on mythic. Make mythic all about skill and have set ilvs.
Balanced against wasting dev time and effort on disposable content. How much time and money are wasted on content which is obsolete a few months later? We see this all the time, even within an expansion's life-span, each time a new tier of raiding and gear is released.
People always argue that they want prestige and prestigious rewards, but then are also almost entirely against ideas which would create ways for that prestige to be accessible and maintained. Note that I say "accessible", not easy.
