This was (and still is) a bug, but our initial response to discovering the issue had unfair consequences for players who had innocently earned and equipped what appeared to be a great weapon. We’re going to revert the change and proceed with a new fix that only lowers the item level of new drops.

Once this fix is live, anyone who had earned the weapon before our original hotfix should find that it has been restored to its original glory. If you’ve since deleted the weapon after it changed, you can restore it via our CS tools or contact CS directly for assistance.

Comment by JimbrooksWhy didn't they just do that in the first place? Seems like a lot of hassle for everyone who had the drop to need to item restore previous weapon/enchant.Comment by jrandall103Now some people have a weapon that shouldn't exist at that level because they cried about not knowing how to use item recovery?Comment by Perseohttps://us.battle.net/forums/en/wow/topic/20768657328?page=1

This was my post on the forums yesterday. I hope it helped in one way or another towards this :)Comment by SckharHeh so lucky ones are set while those not blessed by RNG aren't.
Nice job Blizzard.

It makes no sense why it can't be a freaking regular raid weapon AND a cosmetic at the same time...Comment by gunsotsuutterly pathetic. they were warned ahead of time (and not just weeks ahead, but months) that this was an xmog weapon. giving into them because they are a bunch of whining trolls is disgraceful. shame on you blizzard. now the whiners get rewarded with a weapn that should not have existed and everyone else does not get that same luxury. HOW IS THIS FAIR? ALL IT DOES IS PROMOTE THE IDEOLOGY IF YOU DN'T LIKE SOMETHING ABOUT IT WHINE AND GET YOUR WAY. THAT IS EXTREMELY LOW AND PATHETIC AND NOT HOW A PROFESSIONAL COMPANY SHOULD BE ACTING. WE AER ALL TIRED OF THE WHINING TROLLS INT HIS GAME..THEY SHOUDL BE GETTING BANNED AND ESCORTED OUT THE DOOR NOT RECEIVING REWARDS FOR THEIR CHILDISH BEHAVIOUR.Comment by Perseoutterly pathetic. they were warned ahead of time (and not just weeks ahead, but months) that this was an xmog weapon. giving into them because they are a bunch of whining trolls is disgraceful. shame on you blizzard. now the whiners get rewarded with a weapn that should not have existed and everyone else does not get that same luxury.
