Transmogrification

Remember when you used to play WoW? I know you did. Remember how you'd spend hours trying to find the perfect shoulders to match your chest piece just so you could put them on in town? We all did it, and it was a huge pain. Enter transmogrification (in patch 4.3), which allowed players to find armor they liked, and apply that look to whatever armor they were wearing as gear. It not only improved the look of many characters, it made gathering out raid sets worthwhile again.
