I posted this on the official forums too but I thought I would see what the MMO-champion community thought as well
-------
I know this topic has been brought up many many times, and recently there was another blue post about the topic.
The problem I have each time a blue explains why they don't want moggable legendaries is that it makes no ssense.Just from this thread, you can see the range of arguments on this topic, and the various pros and cons that transmogrifying legendary items would present.
Our current way of thinking is still that legendaries are and probably should remain to be rarely seen. When you do see one, you instantly recognise it for what it is, and acknowledge the prestige that goes along with owning one.
But please carry on discussing the topic, we're really interested to see some good discussion either way.
You say you want legendaries to be scarcely seen right, well won't there won't be any more legenadries seen that are already seen. The only time someone brings out a legendary now a days is just to run around org to show it off. Other than that no one will ever see one.
The thing we all need to understand here is that it actually takes more effort to obtain a legendary now than it probably did back when it was part of current content. Thus making them no more prevalent than now.
If it's because you are worried about everyone who has a legendary mogging into a legendary all the time, then take that as a challenge to your art team to make awesome looking weapons in challenge modes or something outside of orange pixels.
If I spent all that time doing the quests, getting the items, and showing up to raid every single week, I should be rewarded by allowing myself to transmogg my legendary. It makes 0 sense to say that making legendaries moggable would make them to common.
