With the first couple of pages chock full of various discussions around character power and the acquisition of gear, I thought it presented an interesting question:
Would you still play wow if ALL gear was cosmetic only, and there were no ways to increase your characters power?
I find this question interesting on its own, but find it especially interesting when there has been so much discussion around the "best" gear only being available to the "best" players, with more than one person claiming the ONLY difference between a mythic raider and a WQ farmer is "some addons and reading a guide"
From a pvp perspective we have seen multiple people claim they only get crushed in BGs because the other players are 226 geared characters, meaning they dont stand a chance.
Assuming under this system, Mythic raids and high ranked pvp still rewarded the most elaborate and "impressive" sets, would this bother you? It doesnt grant them any power over anyone after all.
