I've seen quite a few posts where people want to return/start the game for the mage tower, only to be disappointed when the reward isn't the weapons. Ultimately, it comes down to whether Blizzard values their older players more than trying to attract newer players. This has changed now, but for historical reference I wanted to mention this argument here as well). It should be literally just a quick Photoshop action to recolor the textures, but what do the devs instead? Make a texture recolor of Tomb of Sargeras gear, which you can farm all year long anyway (this argument was from back when the mage tower was tied to Legion timewalking. Give the Legion players a title and feat of strength and call it a day, now everybody is happy. It's not the same one as rewarded in Legion, but new players can still get the models which is the important part. If WoW wouldn't have stat squishes all the time and each expansion's gear and borrowed power ecosystem remains intact, maybe the mage tower could've remained in the game.Īll Blizzard had to do was to offer recolors of the artifact weapons. However, in this case it's not even about making items easier to obtain, it's about getting the same chance of obtaining the weapons. Removing that illusion and saying "yeah it used to be rare, now it is commonplace" is a big middle finger for those people. On the other hand, some people play exactly because some items are rare and therefore special. Especially since they might be able to get some missing artifact weapons themselves they missed back in the day. Those people don't take WoW that seriously and are more open to the idea of making the stuff available to everyone.
Some players would say that today, with stressful jobs, challenges approaching like climate change, inflation etc, there really are more important things than just exclusive items in a video game. It all boils down to this: Do you care about prestige in a video game? I don't care if there are issues with balancing or obsolete content or whatever - that's on the devs, not the players. I think outside of Blizzard, only Bungie does this with Destiny 2. Especially if it's still the same game and not a port or remake.
Unless it is part of another IP as part of a cross-promotional event, there really shouldn't be a reason to make anything unobtainable or even remove from the game files. Yes, it seems asinine to remove content from any video game. Just a few things I've picked up but if someone has a better method please share! I have other toons to complete and any streamlining would make this a lot easier.Oh boy, this old debate again. But you can use your statistics tab underneath achievements, select dungeons & raids, then legion to get a good idea of what dungeons/bosses you have yet to do on that toon. There is no trackable achievement and using the hidden appearance unlock script will STILL not show you when the color is unlocked, best you can do is hop on your transmog mount and see if it's done. Even though blizzard announced sometime ago that having the base appearance equipped was not a requirement to earn additional colors, for the mage tower appearance it is: You are required to either have the artifact equipped or at least transmogged to your current weapon. Here is what i've learned from GM tickets. I'm using my difficulty method to work on the unlock and so far I'm past 12 w/o unlock. Last is my lock which has almost no dungeons completed during legion whatsoever. About 12 dungeons and they were unlocked. I started to go down the list with difficulties instead of bouncing around: azshara normal/heroic/mythic, wardens normal/heroic/mythic, court of stars heroic/mythic, yada yada. 3rd was my druid (both guardian/feral, but completing one unlocks the other as long as that was the toon that completed the mage tower base appearance unlock). Next was my DK, about 12 dungeons and he was done. Opened a ticket, GM logged in and all of a sudden it was there. 1st was a rogue that after completing 14 dungeons it did not unlock. I'm working on my 4th toon that had the mage tower appearance completed and working on the color unlocks. Super frustrating that there is still not a trackable achievement for this.
