![]() This content has been gated behind the unbreakable wall of time for literal years – even for those that have previously reached it in the given timeframe, for that matter, in old transmogs’ cases. high-end PvP content is effectively the hardest content in the game, and yet it’s being looked down on as if it were a „minigame for degenerates“.you can buy old Vicious mounts in the main cities if you reach a certain rating and grind enough to buy them.you can buy RBG old Elite mogs in Area 52 if you reach a certain rating.PvP old transmogs, PvP gladiator mounts (bear with me, I know this is a brave thing to say) ![]() On a side note - if not the same colour, at leat reintroduce the models and recolor them to tell them apart. (Oh, and make Tarecgosa’s Rest transmoggable finally, in a way that you can change into the mount, how about that, and might as well reintroduce the Horde motorbike for the same price as the Alliance one). Just milk it, have people do it, bring these players back, incentivize them to return to the openworld and solo content for other reasons than afking on a mountain for 40 minutes, searching for an LFG to join an instance. Most people that have achieved any of these are no longer playing anyway, so it’s literally just dead content, which at the same time is considered top notch. Don’t timegate it, make it open like the new Mage Tower. Make it harder than before, but make it doable if enough time is invested. There’s barely any reason other than the so-called „prestige from back-in-the-days“ to keep this content no longer accessible. Incentivize people to play the game by other means than just queuing for PvP, raid, and M+. But why? Wasn’t WoW originally all about avoiding loadscreens, creating an immersive world that feels like fantasy, and make it feel alive? Nowadays, we only use the Openworld as a waiting room. Lucid Nightmare and other secret mounts, secret pets, secret transmog. People have barely any reason to do anything in there, apart from e.g. Unlike in the past, the Openworld nowadays is but a waiting room for your queues to pop. Let’s start with the Openworld/Solo Content, because that’s something people that play WoW should universally hold dearly, to an extent. MoP legendary cloaks, MoP challenge mode sets, WoD challenge mode mount and weapons, Legion Mage Tower artifact weapon(s) In the same way, I suggest you reintroduce the following content, in order to incentivize people to play the game again, and make it less monotonous: The aspects of the game that suffer the most from this – PvP, Openworld Content, and M+, in this order by extent. However, the result was that I was really happy I managed to pass it as a challenge, and it was time well spent, because I enjoyed mastering it. (I played from launch time, and I played it the proper way, not the „outrange him and spam“ abuse way, and I even played it with gear I had on me, not Pandaria gem stack gear). It took me personally around 5 hours of research, theorycrafting, and practicing to kite the guy out, and I literally only beat the guy by one global – I was literally about to die if he finished the cast, but I was faster. And those who still disagree even though they do not fit into this bracket – let me try to convince you otherwise: Bring back the old content, and gate it behind a grind that is adequate to the level of „prestige“ it used to be, plus the FOMO „price to pay“.Īn exquisite example of this was for example the Marksmanship Hunter Mage Tower challenge a few hours after being reintroduced. Now, there are still people that gutterally disagree with this, but these people are mostly these people that want to keep the „prestige“ of TCG mounts behind a paywall (imagine buying status points in a videogame omegalul). Not to mention these are some of the best collection items in the game. What you sadly are doing though it preventing both active players and new players the access to these items, which has the potential to literally bring back old players, or bring people to play the game more, as well as gives them more possibilities. In nowadays game, almost nobody gives a damn about FOMO anymore. ![]() Other than that, it seems that you guys have started to realizing this as well – you’re giving us free TCG mounts, you’re reintroducing WotLK transmog models in different recolors, you brought back Mage Tower etc. After having countless discussions with tons of people on various Discords, it has seemed to me that there is some sort of a somewhat universal consensus to bring back old content in order to reinvigorate the game – both from the side of those that have experienced it, and from those who haven’t. Alright, I’m quite unsure how to start the rant to make it somewhat coherent, but here goes.
