So hunters will be screwed for entire 9.1 patch because they are clearly will be tuned around having that bow, but it's drop rate will likely be sub 1%... This sucks.
But can I get it as a warrior that's the question.
man they are really doing anything to make a legendary not feel legendary anymore huh
Pretty sure the upgrade item has more to do with all the legendaries being hard coded "Unique" even if not shown in tooltips and there has never been the case of a duplicate legendary drop or crafted. So, if you happen to get lucky and get it drop from Normal, you will be stuck with that version since you can't even vendor/delete legos and being hard coded "Unique", you will NEVER get to see higher ilvl drop. The upgrade item is to fix that issue.
..Great...how when can we do this with our older legendaries? I'd love to upgrade Shadowmourne and/or the MoP cloaks to current ilvls. :P
I really like the idea of improving one item as soon as we clear one step of a progress, especially a weapon. Thoug it only works for 1 item, directed at (a) specific class(es), I really hope each class (not each spec) will be able to have one such item for each raid tier. It reduces the risks of not receiving any loot for a month or more even though you cleared a whole raid.With 4 items I have to snatch from Denat in MM, not gonna lie, I really welcome this kind of systems... Even though it may very well only be thought of for this specific item.
Making it a hunter-only drop.Creating a FoS.They're forcing us to level up a hunter. At least Thoridal wasn't class-limited and could be obtained by any warrior.
Man why can you obtain this on LFR? Yikes
