To craft Shadow's Edge and make sure I was the first guy in line for Shadowmourne after the guilds top dps, I spent about 15k on primordials since they were still expensive. I don't see a problem with a legendary costing 9k. Frankly its cheap.

I would imagine it would be restricted to DPS casters. So Mages, Warlocks, Priests, Druids and Shaman should have the option to get it, I guess. Since it seems to be upgradable and part of a quest chain there would not really be any reason to restrict it.
The Living Embers are most likely going to be the "Primordial Saronites" this time around, so it's 9k plus 25X however much they cost. I doubt it will work out cheaper.
I shall die here. Every inch of me shall perish. Every inch, but one. An inch. It is small and it is fragile and it is the only thing in the world worth having. We must never lose it or give it away. We must never let them take it from us.
Even though I agree that 9k gold is not that much. (Vial goes for 65k on my server) I still don't like this direction that blizzard is taking by making everything into a huge gold dump. Yeah of course there will be some crazy thing that im sure will need to be done (Shadowmourne attunements) but still...
If you get it in the same way as lolmourne then this 'legendary' won't be legendary either. Too bad Blizzard doesn't learn. All the sucky guilds that currently haven't even cleared heroic modes will drown in these staves. Which sucks, because it's ugly as hell.
I can't WAIT until we start seeing these in arenas, so that everyone who defended smourne in pvp can eat their words.
Also, good to see staves being useful again. I really hope they do a nice animation for this, it already looks just so so in comparison to other legendarys.
Yes I agree with poster above.. it's kinda fugly.
9000 g is nothing.
Infinitely better than legendaries dropping from bosses, and everybody running around with 2 legendary swords 3 weeks later.
And I don't remember exactly - however many months of killing Ragnaros weekly in vanilla and no eyes... - but wasn't Sulfuras a huge gold dump at the time, too?
Why am I not scared about Boubouille tracking me down and punching me in the face?
"Collect 25 living embers"
Now where have i seen this before?
Staff looks fine to me, though seems a bit stubbier then other staffs. I would have liked one that looks like a polearm.
Some people complaining about lolquestline to get the legendary, but I prefer that over 'Grind this instance every lockout, and you might get it before it becomes obsolete and only functions as a vanity item.'
And question to data-miners: Is there any evidence of the questline ending with a bunch of BoE vanity items like Shadowmourne did?
If it will be the new legendary my only opinion is that its a bit short.
let the farming begin =D
the quest line is obviously just for the first stage of the weapon, like it was for shadowmourne..
except thist ime it has 3 stages instead of 2
first stage will be IL of normal mode weapons
stage 2 will be IL of heroic mode weapons
then third stage will be T12 heroic IL
unlike shadowmourne went straight from normal mode IL to heroic IL
Well, we know going to Northrend / Coldara has something to do with Tarecgosa. She even has a camera and a phase named after her.
if it will cost gold in some way or form, I really hope it will cost at least 100k, just to keep it a bit more legendary.
Why on earth are people complaining about looks when it most likely isn't completely finalized yet?
I wanted the Scythe of Elune QQ
