Demoralizing to see a lot of people here wanting to turn the game even more into a clownfest themepark than it already is.

Tbf a clownfest themepark was before we had transmog back when raids dropped items that didn't all match a theme

Did you ever play TBC? Players looked like literal clowns.

Transmog is already a clownfest theme park. And armor as a whole always was, even before Cataclysm added the feature.

Transmog is about making your character look like you imagine them looking. And removing restrictions just lets you have more freedom to express that, while also having the benefit of incentivizing alts in a way only Legion managed before that.

Transmog restrictions lifted: Cloth -> Plate? No problem! 2h Axe -> Polearm? No Problem (As people have said, some weapon restrictions apply)! ALL Holiday transmog restrictions lifted! Do what makes you happy!

For me even more important is completely lifting restrictions with OBTAINING transmog. When they introduced transmog tab in Legion, it was mostly about running old dungeons/raids. But now game is literally flooded with BoP transmog everywhere, also amount of old expacs almost doubled since then.

This. It was so funny seeing people against trasmogging. Imagine wasting time creating art that will be rendered obsolete.

Avaloren has zero set up, and people are conflating cosmic void with the very terrestrial Old Gods.

The only solid lead we have is the Algerian Stormrider which potentially points us to Khaz Algar as a potential location.

Well there is a reason I put setup in quotation marks. And why I don't want us to go to Avaloren just yet. But there is a reason why it dominates the discussion instead of....anything that I would want.

And finally, what kind of hand is this??

I dunno. This makes sense being kept on my mind. Simply because it incentivizes playing alts, and makes gear gathering an inherent reward of alts as a whole.

He's making gang signs. This is what Odyn was talking about. heretics.

Fingers 1, 2 and 3 are for work.

4 and 5 are for pleasure.

[Moth Preacher]

It's been a circus since 2019, or even earlier. In fact, there were always "goofy ass" mog people, and before them - goofy ass equip people. At this point all fantasy, lore restrictions are laughable at best

To be fair 2,3,4, and 5 can be for pleasure.

Can we add the option to hide sheathed weapons? even only for caster classes. Nowadays if one uses some cloak transmog can hide sheathed weapons on the back, so why should anyone be able to hid them?

You may be looking at the AI upscaled version as I was before, I took a closer look at the original, and it could just be artifacting, but the model appears to have a halo, like a poor magic select tool/feathering effect.

The tips of the top lines on the two "E"s on NEW CONTINENT being different pretty much seals the deal. The screenshots are fake!

I'm dumb. can you explain?

[bruxx]

It's such a weird limitation as well. Back pieces and cloaks, sure. Those would be a clipping nightmare with the wings.
But if Worgen can have weird boots, then why can't Dracthyr?

There are spikes and other 3D elements layered on top of the Dracthyr model, but just hide them when you Transmog something over them. Shouldn't be that difficult.

In fact it's already done with the shoulder spikes and built-in shoulders when you equip a shoulder mog, even if you equip a single shoulder, you'll notice that those are hidden from both sides. Not to mention hair in all races, so they 100% can hide the spikeys

[Shadowferal]

At this point I dont really care what story and content stuff they come up with. I just WANT // NEED the following: Transmog restrictions lifted: Cloth -> Plate? No problem! 2h Axe -> Polearm? No Problem (As people have said, some weapon restrictions apply)! ALL Holiday transmog restrictions lifted! Do what makes you happy! Removal of LEVEL restrictions on ALL Toys. ALL Cooldowns removed from Toys. Go nuts, have fun. Put the damn FUN back into the small things in the game that are SUPPOSED to be FUN Bonus Points for all Races all Classes.

It seems the game hasn't been "fun" for you in a long time.

[Thaumaturgus]

it was based off me mistaking an AI upscaled version of the original for the original, it was debunked

[Dracullus]

Maybe it works for raids, but for sure not for open world. Especially in systems like covenants, I spend practically all Shadowlands doing different stuff in all covenants on one character, but to get all transmog I would have to repeat a lot of that stuff 3 times.
