Can we have a fixed gold price for transmog?

Post#1 » Sun Sep 27, 2026 5:52 am

Always hated fashion coins, their price fluctuates a shit ton because it's ruled by the AH and they are wildly different depending on the level bracket, you really can't change your look that much due to their rarity...

Bonus: Please for the love of fuck make the flail you get from Slow and Steady a 1h mace so we can transmog it.

Hard no.

The scarcity of Fashion Coins is what makes Octo's Transmog not as clowny as Retail WoW.

Am I missing something here? They're BOP. They can't be bought or sold on the AH. They have no price.

And I'd be against them having a gold price, I'm not big on transmog in general and I think people should have to put some effort in to handle it, not just spend gold. This creates an incentive structure for people to go back and do some of the Dungeons that they otherwise wouldn't bother with, and that is a good thing for the server as it increases the odds that dungeon groups will be forming for those that need them for progress not just fashion. I think Turtle struck a great balance with the Fashion Coin system. It enables Transmog for those that like it without it becoming overwhelming for those that aren't huge fans.

You really are a miserable creature aren't you. I started my comment off by saying "Am I missing something". Clearly I was missing something. This is how human beings communicate, Knife. Nobody knows everything, and I certainly have never claimed to know everything. Being ignorant of one small aspect of the game isn't going to stop me from talking about the game though. :roll:

But yeah I don't care too much about transmog so I've never looked too deep into fashion coins as the few things that I do transmog end up covered by the coins I get from doing dungeons. I'm against them having a gold price but obviously they do, and I'm glad that it's something dictated by a supply and demand market rather than a set price. That to me seems like a pretty fair balance regarding transmog accessibility.
