This original article originally mentioned that this was for all artifact weapons and this was incorrect. We apologize for the mistake. Claws of Ursoc

Comment by rarehunter122Cue some overreactions for this obvious bug.Comment by Olympus3129Better be a bugComment by TheJixYes they are, just select them by base weapon type of the artifactComment by nameer1230That’s the reason why we can’t get the Mage Tower in Legion RemixComment by RustybridgesImagine just playing legion remix for 3 months getting all the artifact transmogs just to not be able to put them onComment by ZygosFactually incorrect. There's not a category for it, but you can do it manually. If your artifact weapon was a dagger, go to the daggers category. Click bait.Comment by twentypieceYes they are, just select them by base weapon type of the artifactComment by GoblinaireNot true Wowhead.

The Legion Artifact category is gone, but the artifacts are still transmoggable and listed under their appropriate weapon slot.Comment by SequeI already did transmog my shield/weapon on live for my warrior so this is obviously false reporting.Comment by CrayCYes they are, just select them by base weapon type of the artifactComment by CascadingoutWas able to transmog to my artifact weapons last night. The dropdown isn't there, but you can still find them by weapon type.Comment by noxjmBefore posting, check the information ffs xD. Its str8 up bsComment by Sp33deynot wowhead posting fake news lmaoComment by flgiirl415I certainly hope it's a bug!Comment by TalthisThey are in the weapon window on my rogue. There is not a separate tab for them anymore but they are still option. Just need to scroll through and find themComment by StormwarningI have mine. Just not in the drop down anymore. Have to look at your available weapons.Comment by SangwynarisI transmogged Xalatath last night so, this article doesn't seem to have done ANY research. It's just in the daggers category of 1h. I transmogged it onto a 2h, too.Comment by kraelicThis is not accurate. You just have to find the item in the list by whatever order it's sorted. There just isn't an easy dropdown anymore (bug?). On my paladin I was able to find the weapon and then the shield, manually. Article has been fixed. gj!Comment by CypheredTVFor those that are saying this is incorrect, the meaning of this is prior to the Transmog change, you could transmog the artifact weapon of your current spec regardless of the weapon type you are using. Now you can no longer do that and if your artifact weapon is a staff, but you have MH/OH you can't tmog it due to it being a staff.Comment by Goblinairenot wowhead posting fake news lmao
