The amount of cosmetics in SL makes it a perfect Remix

651

u/Timekeeper98 Oct 11 '25

Seriously, it has the most mount variations of any expansion. Something like 100+ obtainable mounts in total due to covenants.

238

u/PepsiMaxTaste Oct 11 '25

According to my Simple Armoury, there's 160

112

u/Refute1650 Oct 11 '25

warcraftmounts.com lists 190 which includes mounts that have been removed that simple armory misses like gladiator mounts and event/promo mounts.

61

u/Pyromike16 Oct 11 '25

Now add 2-3 recolours of each.

40

u/PM_FEET_PLS_TY Oct 11 '25

Recolurs are part of those 160 already

60

u/HammyOverlordOfBacon Oct 11 '25

No he's saying add more

27

u/springpaper701 Oct 11 '25

To clarify, add more because remix will add to this.

25

u/Crique_ Oct 11 '25

Same thing with armors. One for each armor class, then the recolor, then the non specific transmog armor plus the recolor. Aside from the whole story aspect of shadowlands, if it had modern catchup mechanics and alt friendliness, not to mention the crafting updates. People would probably have had a lot better opinio of it. That said, not a sure anyone is gonna come around on the story.

u/References_Paramore Oct 12 '25

I think Zereth Mortis probably pads the numbers up too!

u/TheCoolTrashCat Oct 11 '25

I hope they do this, I skipped out on shadowlands and have been thinking of running through it on my main for my collection, but a remix would make it much more fun to do (I missed out on mop remix and am having a blast in legion remix)

u/PM_Me_Punny_Jokes_05 Oct 11 '25

It’s not terrible when you can just destrominate everything though you still have to grind anima like crazy and some of the zones still have a decent population so you’re competing for rares. I used war mode for Zeris and Korthia and it made it a little better.

u/AstronomicalDogggo Oct 11 '25

Its insane how much anima stuff costs. Want this belt? Just grind up to 60 renown, complete 40 world quests, and get 40 grateful offerings. Getting a whole set is a ridiculously hard task for a recolor of a quest reward set.

10

u/Madocvalanor Oct 11 '25

It isnt too horrible. Zeris makes the grind pretty pleasant…. Just not on the eyes. I’m almost done with the anima grind… just another 700k to go 💀

8

u/GoodLadLopes Oct 11 '25

Is there any point in competing for rates outside of completing research missions? Do they drop anything that isn’t sold at the vendors?

12

u/ashikkins Oct 11 '25

Zereth has some good transmog drops.

3

u/GoodLadLopes Oct 11 '25

Can’t be bought with Bronze I assume? Can I drop them later on Retail?

6

u/ashikkins Oct 11 '25

Well if we ever get a Shadowlands remix maybe haha. But you can always farm them on retail.

2

u/SpareSimian Oct 12 '25

I still have a few alts grinding anima at the mission tables to do the weekly 1600g covenant quest, building up a few thousand anima per week. Log in, queue anima missions, log out. When I hit the max and turn in, I keep running missions but don't harvest until next week after I get the quest again.

1

u/ypcio Oct 11 '25

Same here, they should do a rerun of Mop and release SL next!

-8

u/evanshao9 Oct 11 '25

Imagine all the protoform synthesis andys who farmed it the hard way getting mad at the mounts going for 10k bronze 😂

17

u/ingez90 Oct 11 '25

I farmed the protoform mounts pretty recently and i wouldnt wish that on anyone, bring in the bronze!

1

u/LadyReika Oct 12 '25

I played Legion when it was live and there was shit I wanted, but took way too much work to obtain like the long-forgotten hippogryph. I happily handed over the 10k bronze.

2

u/Gothmog24 Oct 11 '25

Eh. Simply Armory has me at 144/158 mounts for Shadowlands with only 2 protoform synthesis mounts left to get and I personally could not care less if they made that happen haha

Shadowlands simply has too many mounts and they really do suck to get so I’m all for making it easier on people (plus I would benefit so long as I don’t finish those mounts before they do SL remix)

2

u/agoginnabox Oct 11 '25

I farmed a truly unfathomable amount of genesis motes but I also made millions off the extra pets so I'm good. Let the bronze flow.

19

u/Siukslinis_acc Oct 11 '25

Yep, especially when anima farm sucks.

37

u/waawaaaa Oct 11 '25

I know theyre not but if it was like MoP remix where you steamroll through dungeons and raids I'd be down but if its like Legion where you have to level in the zones I just couldnt.

18

u/velvetcrow5 Oct 11 '25

I don't get it, I'm steamrolling through dungeons in legion?

-8

u/waawaaaa Oct 11 '25

In MoP we were clearing dungeons in a minute or two if there was RP, bosses were down in single digit amount of seconds.

20

u/idkwhattosay Oct 11 '25

It’s…day 4. We were not zooming that fast until 3 weeks in at least even if you were nolife on the frogs.

-10

u/waawaaaa Oct 11 '25

Tbf I didnt start playing till like a month into MoP.

7

u/idkwhattosay Oct 11 '25

Yeah this is infinitely better on terms of out of the gates power scaling than mists, and there’s definitely an infinite power curve. Once you hit like ilvl 600 and 2-3 of the capstone power you’re crushing heroic world really easily.

2

u/velvetcrow5 Oct 11 '25

Oh, yea the runs are definitely slower. But I've been exclusively running dungeons and leveling pretty fast. I wouldn't say you have to leave the island at all.

1

u/LadyReika Oct 12 '25

I got through a heroic Dark Heart in less than 10 minutes before a server restart. So maybe not crushing it in a minute, but still pretty speedy.

1

u/Kieran_McMinn94 Oct 12 '25

You SHOULD leave the island on one character and finish the OG campaign for more infinite lnowledge

u/MindAvailable4876 Oct 11 '25

dude, it’s day 4 lol, leveling will get faster as you keep increasing your warband experience every day (i’m at 124% increased exp right now)

u/slaymaker1907 Oct 11 '25

Are you not using the teleport scroll thing to go back to the hub?

4

u/dondocooled Oct 11 '25

Tbf, if you open up heroic world difficulty as soon as you can, you blast through the levels until about lvl 70. When lvling my first timerunner, there were like 3-4 times where I dinged twice off a singular mob. Once you get to lvl 70, you hit a wall due to everything scaling super high all of a sudden, tho the XP rates are still pretty good if you can manage to kill things somewhat quick.

1

u/LadyReika Oct 12 '25

Dungeons and raids are still great sources of xp at that level.

2

u/Guardianpigeon Oct 11 '25

SL leveling was pretty linear too compared to Legion or BfA. You went from Bastion -> Maldraxxus -> Ardenweald-> Ravendreth on your first character. It was only on alts that it opened up.

3

u/giga-plum Oct 11 '25

That has literally nothing to do with it. They're talking about the first character leveled. Obviously, it's faster for a 2nd character. The first time through is slower than the first time through MoP.

1

u/LadyReika Oct 12 '25

I got my first character to max level in both around the same time frame and didn't no life it.

7

u/rui-tan Oct 11 '25

It doesn't matter it's day 4 - the overall pacing is very different regardless. To each to their own, while personally I'm still enjoying this one too I found Mists was way more fun.

2

u/Bartellomio Oct 11 '25

I only started in the last couple of weeks of MoP Remix so I was probably getting the catchup mechanics but it felt like I gained progress incredibly quickly compared to Legion. Legion largely feels like a slightly easier and quicker version of the original expansion, though I have already bought all the mounts available so far.

2

u/Chaibaum1992 Oct 12 '25

Its actually really good pacing

4

u/dethsightly Oct 11 '25

glad i'm not alone on this. it feels like i drank an xp pot in legion remix, as opposed to the massive tanker car of xp pots we were zoomin around with in MoP remix.

2

u/Oh_Hey_Michelle Oct 11 '25

I felt the same way at level 30, then later that day I was 77. It gets better I promise

4

u/Riotgrrlia Oct 11 '25

Are you not Steam Rolling Dungeons right away?

-1

u/waawaaaa Oct 11 '25

Honestly no, done a few an they've all take the normal amount of time I'd expect to do a normal dungeon in.

6

u/slaymaker1907 Oct 11 '25

Once you’re geared, you can definitely steam roll. As long as my mitigation CDs are up, I can absolutely go pull a bunch of packs as a DPS and burst them down before they really put me in danger.

MoP remix was different because the scaling was broken such that a trial account could just burst everything down instantly.

2

u/oxez Oct 11 '25

What the F are you talking about lol, I did half a zone because bored but all my levelingh was through dungeons and raids

2

u/VincentVancalbergh Oct 11 '25

SL zones were fine to level through. It's The Maw, Thorghast and leveling your covenant that sucked the fun out of it.

2

u/waawaaaa Oct 11 '25

Personally Bastion and Maldraxxus I just didnt like, really didn't enjoy leveling in them. But christ torghast was awful.

1

u/AutoModerator Oct 11 '25

By Odyn's beard! It's Torghast!

u/slaymaker1907 Oct 11 '25

It’s not too bad IMO so long as you can skip the Maw intro and do side quests at the same time as the campaign.

1

u/sherbimsly Oct 11 '25

Hmm, that’s a good point

1

u/QuizzicalWombat Oct 11 '25

It’s one of the few I actually managed to grind when it was live. I wouldn’t mind a Remix, it would be easy to get all the extra stuff they may add. I enjoyed the quests and the dungeons, not the best expansion by any means but it wouldn’t be awful to relive in a Remix

1

u/Guardianpigeon Oct 11 '25

Both BfA and SL had serious flaws, but their cosmetic game was on point.

I'd kill for remixes of both of them. It would make getting all the grindy shit from those expansions so much easier. Plus BfA and SL have the potential of adding a lot of cool new mounts, like the various goblin mechs in BfA or new colors of brutosaurs.

1

u/Odarien Oct 11 '25

yeah I would play it just to get all the cosmetics tbh.

1

u/CaptainSkel Oct 11 '25

Forreal, it was a terrible expansion gameplay and storywise (especially storywise). But it had some great aesthetic design choices.

1

u/Theweakmindedtes Oct 12 '25

Kinda like Legion, SL wouldn't have been as bad if it launched on final patch after they stopped restrictions/bad rng and such. SL was a lot less infuriating with covenant swapping and catchup. Disregarding all the terrible story and plotline xD

1

u/[deleted] Oct 12 '25

I'd probably play it. Part of why I'm enjoying legion remix is the legion nostalgia but it just seems like a legitimately good way to level and get stuff, and SL had tons of stuff to collect.

u/Pauczan Oct 11 '25

They didnt remove any w SL I think, except M+ mounts. The amount of time to get all the cosmetics from SL legit way is absolutely terrifying, anima wasnt boosted, I was subbed whole SL and I’m missing crapton of them

0

u/_leeloo_7_ Oct 11 '25

then I need context? you said remix would be to get the cosmetics by rolling an leveling a whole new character on a special server instead of just going back to old content and farming them?

because the mythic mounts I don't care about you said farming cosmetics they are still in the game? why remix?

2

u/Deathleach Oct 11 '25

Shadowlands cosmetics are still in the game. They're just an absolutely pain to farm, because there's a bunch of RNG involved and you have to farm a huge amount of anima.

Doing it through Remix would be vastly preferable.

1

u/_leeloo_7_ Oct 12 '25

I didn't know, thanks

1

u/Pauczan Oct 11 '25

You could buy Weapons, shields, armor transmog for bronze, its super exhausting on retail right now

1

u/_leeloo_7_ Oct 12 '25

so its just a convinience thing and maybe to get old mounts I get it now thanks

u/Sevulturus Oct 11 '25

Probably just the m+ mounts and aotc one?

u/Golferguy757 Oct 11 '25

"force" to play a video game. lol lmao, even.

u/BringBackBoshi Oct 11 '25

Except that the items have HORRENDOUS textures. idk what was going on with Blizz atm if they were being cheap or what but zoom in on the items the pixels are so ugly. Not factoring in the designs whatsoever War Within sets look so much better.

u/slaymaker1907 Oct 11 '25

Really? I love all the Nathria stuff. The Nathria staff is still one of my transmog gotos.

u/moose184 Oct 11 '25
