Watching Blizzard: Transmog or bust

Added 2018-06-20 01:14:16 +0000 UTC

World of Warcraft isn’t an epic fantasy game about fighting demons and monsters and sometimes each other. It’s about looking good. Sure, sometimes you want to look good while you’re fighting demons and monsters, but you also want to look good when you’re AFK in Dalaran or chilling out in your class hall.

And that, of course, is what transmog is for. So let’s take a look at today’s news, by which I mean today’s transmog news, which is definitely the only news that matters.

Legacy loot mode will make all your transmog dreams come true

Okay, maybe not all of them. But it will help you collect more transmog loot when you run low-level dungeons.

I’ve never actually played a Hunter, but…

Survival Hunters in Battle for Azeroth sound awesome. A melee class with enough ranged to do something when they have to be out of melee, plus cool pets? I’m totally there.
Oh, right, there was a point to this comment: Ted wrote a great rundown of how Survival plays on the beta.

Good news! You can respec your Azerite items in the expansion

It will cost gold (bad news).
But the gold cost starts low (good news).
But the gold cost goes up every time you respec (bad news).
But the gold cost decreases if you don’t respec for a while (good news).
Rossi has everything you need to know.

And, huh, that seems to be all of the news we have for today. Since it was a quiet day, that probably means tomorrow will be crazy busy, probably right in the middle of the podcast. That’s always fun, right?

But until tomorrow, this is Liz, signing out.
