    How much have you spent on Trasmogrification?

    I'm pretty much a transmog-a-holic. I definitely have splurged quite a bit on transmog items for all my toons this expansion. Off the top of my head, some of the big ticket items I've purchased this expansion alone include:

    For my Rogue:
    • Full Bonescythe (200k+)
    • Full Dreamwalker (200k+)
    • Battered Hilt (6k)
    • Blade of Wizardry (10k)

    For my Paladin:
    • A couple pieces of Dreadnaught (80k)
    • Glorious Chest (5k)

    Plus another 20k or so all the other stuff I've bought for my 7 90s.

    I have spent quite a bit of gold on transmogs, around 10k I'd say, but I've made a lot more than that selling transmog items.

    Nothing, because all it provides is a different look - and that is useless.

    150-400k probably Almost done with t3. It seems to always go up on days I'm not home.

    I usually try and nab pieces when they're cheap, or use pieces from raids if at all possible.


    I DID snag a pair of glorious legplates that someone foolishly tossed up for 300g, though. I think that's the most I've spent on a transmog item.

    Only a couple hundred so far, since I've just come back from a hiatus.

    I rather sit on my goldcap than spending it. That includes BMAH stuff that would actually be an upgrade - heavily diminished through the price, but still an upgrade.

    What do you spend your gold on then? You could just bust out the calculator if you like big numbers.

    When I played, I made far more than what I spent. I frequently farm lower level instances, as well as leveling alts. As such, I end up with a truckload of greens that people want. All of them go to the auction house, and all of them eventually sell. It has gotten to the point where I just disenchant blues and epics that drop, and actually sell the greens. I am not sure on exact numbers, but I would imagine I was averaging about 3000 to 4000G a day...the rest of my transmog that I didn't farm, I bought. Maybe 10k total. I either made my own sets, or just farmed dungeon drops.

    150-400k here, T3 on a super high pop is expensive ><

    Most xmog is farmable, but I suppose there's those that bought a CM gold (no need to be ashamed or anything), or a ultra rare item like Teebu's. I have groups set up in TSM for xmog sales but there's too much redundancy on a high pop to make more than a few hundred g here or there.

    IMO T3 should be just a class token

    As I said, nothing. I don't care for looks. Went for goldcap for the challenge.

    400k +. I'm a heavy RPer, and my look must always be up to date.

    Mostly took jp, hp, lots of patience and dung runs to get my dk the fl heal gear, hunter 3 Mogg types, and warr the Mogg I need to get(fl fire giant, so far, have heal helm, ugly shield, gloves and shoulders, plus hammer)

    - - - Updated - - -

    Let me just say, it took about months to get the stuff

    Most of my stuff is from raids so not really a whole lot. However, I have been collecting the Plagueheart set from the BMAH for my mage. Of course, I've been waiting since December of 2012 for the robe to reappear... If it ever does I'd say I've spent around 60-70k on vanity gear.

    I spent about at least 10k in transmog, which is actually quite small because the gear I use is mostly BoP, as in previous PvP tier gear. Most of that money was spent on my Priest's transmog. (getting the Primal Mooncloth + Whitemend set crafted)

    Who knows? How does anyone know? Is there a stat in the game that calculates this? Asking based on someone's guess is pretty useless.

    I 'probably' have spent very little. Like upgraded character models, I find very little use in transmog. The only time I see my character is for the brief second I'm at the character selection screen.
