Mystic Revealed - Questions about Details

I wanted to start a thread pertaining to all questions regarding the Mystic now that Blizz has done the mainpage post about it.

First off, I have two questions about details:

Legacy items (items that drop before [the expansion/pre-expansion patch] goes live) will not unlock unique item appearance, but they can be Transmogrified. -Vaeflare

1) Just to clarify, does this mean even unidentified pre-2.0 items will not unlock the skins?

2) After patch 2.0, will we unlock skins only through self-found identified legendaries/set items, or will we be able to acquire unidentified items through trade and then ID them ourselves to unlock the skins?

Thank you

We're still working out the details of Transmogrification and the full scope of the items it impacts.

For your first question, right now identified Legacy Legendary items will not unlock an appearance, but we're still debating what to do with unidentified Legacy Legendary items.

For your second question, we're also still discussing if we should put any restrictions on unlocking appearances for non-Legacy Legendaries (i.e. whether we'll require you to both loot and identify the item to unlock its appearance, or if you just need to identify it). So, we don't have firm answers to either of your questions just yet, but we'll be sure to let you know just as soon as we do. :)

Edited to clarify that I was discussing unidentified items specifically.

I've gone ahead an updated my original post to clarify that I was specifically discussing unidentified Legacy items. :)

What are the new materials needed, and how are they obtained?

Those details are still being worked out as well. Once they're more finalized, we'll let you know! :)

I wanted to jump back into this thread to provide an update concerning our plans for unidentified legacy Legendaries and how they will interact with the upcoming Transmogrification system in Reaper of Souls.

We've already mentioned that Legacy items (items that drop before the expansion or pre-expansion patch goes live) will not unlock unique item appearance, but they can be Transmogrified.

At this point, we're currently planning that unidentified legacy Legendaries will also not provide new item appearances for Transmogrification. Our reasoning is this: even old Legendaries will be following new rules once we release Loot 2.0 and we want Transmogrification to reflect what new items you've gotten after that point.
