Though it can be easy to have a differing opinion here, I believe this is a part of it.05/23/2018 09:24 PMPosted by TinĂºvielI understand their reasoning; they want this to be a prestigious badge of honor for future expansions, a way of saying "I was there," but I really couldn't be bothered with that. I detest having content removed for the sake of "I was there" trophies, despite having a few of them myself. The Hordebreaker title and the Kor'kron War Wolf/Grove Warden* come to mind for me.
I don't feel at all special for having a few more things in my collection, and why should someone who wants them later on not be allowed to get them? It's a shame, but that's why I always have to scramble to get everything that will be marked unobtainable before they decide to cut it for the sake of cutting it.
The Mage Tower appearance will be akin to the Legendary Cloaks and other legendary quest lines from recent expansions, wherein it will serve as a badge of honor from Legion saying "I was here" and "I did this".
I personally think trying to keep the Mage Tower challenge balanced and up-to-date would be a bit of a distraction from current content, and it's probably not something the development team would want to devote time to. I'd much rather the development team focus on Battle for Azeroth content, and make something like Mage Tower again in the future when the timing is right.
This isn't anything new, so I encourage you to take opportunities as they are available to try and complete the challenge! :)
