Transmog Costs Slashed 90% in Mists of Pandaria Classic
Blizzard has implemented a hotfix reducing Transmog outfit and per-slot gold costs by 90% in Mists of Pandaria Classic. The change was confirmed in a brief Blizzard forum update announcing the reduction had gone live.
This follows the arrival of the retail-style Transmog system in MoP Classic, which sparked feedback that initial prices felt out of step with Classic gold economies. For context on that reaction and the hotfix, see Wowhead’s coverage of the cost change.
Blizzard’s rolling hotfix notes also state that the earlier patch had set these prices too high unintentionally. That note appears in the Mists of Pandaria Classic Hotfixes thread updated on June 3.
- Transmog outfit save costs reduced by 90%.
- Transmog per-slot application costs reduced by 90%.
Practically, this makes building and swapping appearances far more approachable on mains and alts. If you’ve been holding off on saving a few core outfits (raid, PvP, or just a favorite look), the new pricing makes that planning much easier on your gold. You’ll still pay a fee, but the hit to your purse is a fraction of what it was.
Note: Blizzard’s posts confirm the 90% reduction going forward. They do not mention any refunds or retroactive adjustments for earlier transactions.
