wow Ensemble Unlocks Not Changing in Dragonflight

[Staff 1,489]

Blizzard confirmed ensemble unlocks are not changing in Dragonflight and buying ensembles you cannot equip is a bug.

A few days ago, we wrote about the option to unlock transmog ensembles for alts in Dragonflight. However, Blizzard confirmed this as a bug and not intended in a blue post today.

Currently, there is a bug with Dragonflight vendors that are causing them to show more ensembles for sale than they should to the character viewing their wares. Ensemble unlocks are not changing in Dragonflight; the vendors should only offer them to characters with the appropriate armor type.

With that said, we recognize players don’t want to have to re-earn the ability to purchase these ensembles, but we don’t want to create a problem where a player might unintentionally purchase an ensemble of the wrong armor type, use it and then not find the armor they thought they just unlocked. So in Dragonflight, the ability to purchase the cosmetic Renown unlocks will be unlocked account-wide and can be purchased with alt characters on the account that match the ensemble’s armor type.

That's really unfortunate, seemed like such a good change to make.

To be clear, it says in the blue post that ensembles are unlocked account wide, just that you'll need to buy each ensemble on a character that matches the armor type.

they say renown/reputatin progression is account wide, but you still need to grind the currency and buy stuff on alts

when are they just going to remove the transmog restrictions? we already have store bought sets that anyone from a priest to a dk can wear, class identity means nothing visually anymore unless you as the player choose it to be, but you could easily be looking at a warrior that looks like a mage with those dumb store sets so just let everyone use every piece already. if they REALLY want to be stuborn just make it so only X armor class can unlock X armor transmog.
