I like playing to collect mog. Seems like it would take forever to do it with this xpac. Especially when 1 cov is best for multiple classes... maybe they will loosen it up after 2-3 patches.
I just can't wait for class sets again.
That's a nice touch of flavor that enhances singularity in choices, for those who care about it.
I'd hope that if you unlock a weapon appearance then you unlock the same appearance for other covenants, but I have the sinking feeling that we'll need to get each weapon 4 times.
This is awesome! I love that Covenants have so much weight. But, i hope, at some point, Blizzard will unlock transmog restrictions.RPG, baby! Yes!
I wonder if the appearance changes when you change your covenant? Probably not, but.. would be kinda cool. Although would also mess with transmogs quite a bit if that were the case so, maybe that idea is better off not being the case.
On one hand, I won't be able to complain about my weapons not matching my set. On the other hand, I can't live the fantasy of entering a raid with matching gear and leaving with new found exotic and powerful equipment without a visit to a transmogrifier. Hopefully you get to keep the old appearances after switching, but I doubt it.
I, for one, love this. I like that they're trying new things.
I personally prefer when a raid has a specific look/feel to it throughout all of its loot, and think they could have easily saved these weapon models as feat of strength achievement unlocks/rewards through each covenant since they are already doing entire armor sets specific to each covenant.
I don't think the colors reflected for the LFR, N, and H versions are accurate. There are most likely more colors that just haven't been updated is all.
massive disappointment . raid weapons should be themed to match the gear from the raid not my covenant .
Sooo, I think I mentioned that these covenant appearances would be from the tokens dropped by Denathrius and not connected to specific raids in each zone. It was mentioned in one of the many interviews that were going on when the beta first dropped.
It was said that this is something they want to bring back. Just obviously wasn't going to be for the first raid since that was already under development.
Good, while im all for opening up the abilities of the covenants, I think its really important to continue to cement the covenant aesthetic as an important choice for your character and not just another rep bar of shallow rpg value
blizz did that in siege of org too made all the sets for each class look the same just different colors . i don't mind because i remember in most raids like one example is hellfire citadel the lfr gear norm and heroic looked like crap compared to the 5% player base appearance for mythic raiding this change will get more people to want to collect the tints this is a big transmog themed expansion and also u can choose what color is your favorite if your a mythic raider and u see green is the coolest they will get it in lfr and still mythic raid .
Im asuming we have to farm the raid on all four covenants to get all the transmog now then. yikes:P
