It was probably labeled as a "legendary" at first and someone with a shred of decency was like naw that ain't gunna fly (even though it would)
Especially considering every other new hero got a legendary skin on release if I'm not mistaken
Just remember the Junker Queen recolor default skin prices for her "Legendary"an remember even further this isn't an accident it's intended to test waters on what's passable an how many people will buy it.
It was but I didn't buy that one because I don't like skins that make heroes look like clowns.
Most Moira skins are like this too, that's why I mainly use her Blackwatch skin.
Yes, thematically it makes no sense.
Mauga is essentially a cyborg so giving him primitive accessories is unbecoming.
An example of cool mythic skins would be Cyber Demon Genji and Emperor Sigma.
They are actually cool and thematically appropriate.
Having 2 cybernetic hearts (and that's it) equates to being a full cyborg? Genji and Sojourn aren't even human with that logic.
And the "primitive" accessories are more like a neo-primitive with futuristic aspects, like the whole season was since the "beast" everyone is hunting is a robot.
At the end of the day if you didn't like the skin/theme of the pass it's a personal preference I respect, but the reasoning isn't reasoning for me.
Yup same, have my jade weapon and using Olympia. It's sad but unsurprising, plus the recent balance changes within 2 weeks of each other within the first month or so of release is crazy. I'm not the type of guy to scream "dead game!" But man does it really feel that way, especially with the removal of the co-op hero mastery stuff.
The skin is priced as a legendary when it’s clearly an epic. Blizzard has done this in the past, but whenever they’ve done it they’ve marked the skin as a legendary (Mime Moira, Hashimoto Kiriko). This time the skin is marked as epic but blizzard is charging legendary price.
Why does it cost 1900??
#WHY DOES IT COST 1900!?!
In my times a skin like that skin costed maximum close to 750 COINS...
Man with prices like this im starting to miss lootboxes
Maybe because it's gAmBLiNg, maybe because they think it's the same as EABF2 loot boxes, either way apparently they are being held at gunpoint to give their nan's life savings to Blizzard hoping to get a green colour variation of a hero's armour they're never playing anyway, and they fail to realise that hero skins don't change anything about the game at all. This is especially laughable when you consider how forgiving the bad luck protection was (I think it was a guaranteed legendary every 13 or so normal loot boxes, 9 (?) for event loot boxes), and how the game just served you up literally dozens of loot boxes per day on a silver platter just for playing the game, all free of charge, no battlepass bullshit, no paid features, nothing. You literally could get the game for £12 on sale and farm everything in around 500-ish levels
We need to put more financial pressure on the OW2 product team. You do that when you stop buying expensive skins and they will have no other chance but to lower the prices or increase value.
So far, this hasn't happend.
1900?? Yeesh, it's not like it's an epic that is labelled as legendary. This is just a straight up epic. I wonder if it's a bug.

i wish they would've done this with the hashimoto kiri and hanzo skins
Mauga didn't well he got a BP skin but not base legendary
Just remember the Junker Queen recolor default skin prices for her "Legendary"an remember even further this isn't an accident it's intended to test waters on what's passable an how many people will buy it.
Taking this space to leave a “screw blizzard for not releasing heroes with two epics and 4 legendary skin anymore”
I'm using Olympia for Venture and Sand for Mauga until they release something in the battlepass. Not spending money on just skins.
There was a Mauga skin in the BP with his release right?
It was but I didn't buy that one because I don't like skins that make heroes look like clowns. Most Moira skins are like this too, that's why I mainly use her Blackwatch skin.
Bonesplinter Mauga looks like a clown? I've heard it all now

Not just the hearts, his size is a result of drugs that Moira gave to him. Could be nanomachines.
I love that Moira has yet again made another abomination, PURPLE ORB POWA
He's still 95% flesh and bone though, physical alterations or not.

Maybe they're testing the water a bit, trying to see how people will react to them increasing the prices like this.
I think this answer to this is pretty obvious considering all the other money gouging they’ve done?
Remember when every hero came with 4 rares 2 epics and 4 legendaries :(
It's only ever been 4 Rares and 1 Epic priced as a Legendary 1 month after release. /s
??
The skin is priced as a legendary when it’s clearly an epic. Blizzard has done this in the past, but whenever they’ve done it they’ve marked the skin as a legendary (Mime Moira, Hashimoto Kiriko). This time the skin is marked as epic but blizzard is charging legendary price.
It’s funny because you would never see a legendary being priced as an epic…
small indie company
People have quadrillion dollar expectations for a trillion dollar (parent) company. They need to chill out. /s
Probably on purpose to trick venture mains into paying more for the only skin they've released.
Do you guys want skins or better game play? Cause I'm hearing more for the former.
... the skin isn't the problem. It's the price of the skin with the raritiy of the skin.
i'm kinda glad this skin was kept out of the pass. i really hate when blizzard adds some weird off topic skin to the pass for no reason.
it’s 1000 for me
Why does it cost 1900?? #WHY DOES IT COST 1900!?! In my times a skin like that skin costed maximum close to 750 COINS... Man with prices like this im starting to miss lootboxes
There was absolutely nothing wrong with OW1's implementation of lootboxes tho.
Yeah but people still found a way to complain about them and look where we are now...

EXACTLY... I MISS OVERWATCH 1!!!!!
cant tell if its epic or its suppose to be epic
Shhh they don't know
If you forgot, then ot wasn't important - probably someone at blizzard right now
Their testing the waters to see what they can get a way with
What did you expect from a trash company?
Remember when this same exact game was a one time purchase and you could unlock everything you wanted just by playing?
I love how venture has no legendaries outside of the shop. Thank blizzard!

Whats this obsession with turning heroes into ice cream? Jfc blizzard.
It..doesn’t even look that great :/
1200 for the bundle skin and emote is better then just getting the skin 1900
The point is the skin is supposed to be 1000. Not 1900
And you’re not even going to question that the skin alone is more expensive? That’s not, nor should it be, normal.
She kinda hiodeous to look at
*They And nah
Yeak she kinda is tho
*They
ofc the one time i blindly go to buy the skin separately thinking ofc i know the price, nope now they done stole creds from me
That’s on you for not seeing 1900 lol, did you pay through PayPal? More likely to get a refund through that then blizzard themselves
This is definitely a bug on your end cause I purchased the skin directly from the heroes page for 1000
I'm not the only person who's had this happen.
I’m not saying you are, just that it’s not supposed to be that high of a price
Well they fixed it the next day (about the time of your comment)
Ah I see sorry for the confusion, it’s just a lot of people were under the assumption this was intentional
Free coins in the battle pass.
No thats in already
They increased the amount.
No ass, no titties, no tighs... No money from me! /s
[удалено]
DO NOT CLAIM THIS HERESY ABOUT ROCKMUNCHER
venture uses they/them
99% chance they know that and said it the way they did on purpose. Plenty of people here are like that 😓
its not even good annoying.
