It doesn't make a whole lot of sense. The item transmogs you get should be permanent. I'm not talking about the random legendary and set item transmogs you unlock as you get them. I mean the ones that drop from bosses, that you have to find, etc. I found the crowbar 2 season's ago. It took me so long and I know I will not be wasting my time to get it again. Whimsyshire, why on earth would I want to gather those items again to get what I need from there? I have the portrait and whatnot but why can't I still use the sword transmog I got a few seasons ago? How come these transmogs are forbidden from being transferred from season to season? Portraits are still unlocked. Wings are still unlocked. Pets are still unlocked.
Is it bad I just want to use my crowbar or those rainbow swords? I will never be putting in the effort to get those again. The amount of time it takes is actually not worth it. Is there an engine limitation to how transmogs work with this or does Blizzard just not want to let you keep your transmogs unlocked from season to season? Is Blizzard going to try and monetize these transmogs and make you pay for it to keep it from season to season or what is the big issue behind not having them be permanent?
