Clearly the BC weapons dominate transmog because of nostalgia. Oh wait, wouldn't Classic be dominating if that was the reason?

[Slowpoke is a Gamer]

If that transmog statistic says anything, it's that players want variety even if it's mediocre looking weapons. Cata was beautifully made, but all looked the same.

[Ave07]

BC had a lot of awesome models.

[tey]

TBC was easily the best era of wow, with or without the gear

[Phillytwo]

dat intro blew my mind

[Drush]

A new era has begun

[coolflame]

Haha, I am part of the 0% that transmogs gear with cata items. Paladin Heroic T12 for life!

[Lightfist]

BC holds so much of this because of the Brutal gear - it looks decent and it's dirt cheap.

[Imurbandaid]

that music in the beginning is the best music ever in a wow video that i have watched!!

"Let the game begins" i love how ESL people write :}

[Agatha]

Nice list I'd love to see what ranged weapons people chose too

[Deleted]

TBC models ftw!

Im curious as to how you got these figures. Currently just seems you pulled them out of thin air. Apologies if I missed something you wrote, just curious about where the stats came from.

[Rioo]

Looks like I'm not the only one to use Pillar of Ferocity for my staffs, but Black Ice for polearms is still pretty rare.

[Dasn]

TBC was my favorite time during the gamealso, bitches don't know about my Circle of Flame

[Deleted]

no surprise, cata gear looks awful

[Maes]

You should add ranged weapons for hunters, I want to see Rhok dominate all other weapons.

From Blizzard ofc. mmo-champion is Blizzard's advertisement. Only Blizzard would have these kind of stats available. They didn't say sample size or anything about how data was collected so would be logical to assume it is Blizzard internal numbers or just made up.

Enhancement Shaman putting out some MEAN dps on DW.

Stars now takes the world 2nd! Asian FTW!
