BACK THEN...
Gray
: what you use if nothing better is available, then vendor.
White
: what you use if nothing better is available, then mail to your low-level alts.
Green
: This stuff is good. It's so good, in fact, that Blizzard won't let you twink with it. I mean, if you were allowed to twink with it, then you could have low-level characters running around wearing
nothing but greens
. That would be WAY overpowered!
Blue
: Like green, but blue-er.
Purple
: Proof that there are at least 39 other people on your realm who consider you one of the 40 best players on the realm. You are
that freaking good
. You wander the streets of Stormwind and Orgrimmar and all of the peons bow to you and your purple awesomeness. Man, can you imagine having TWO purple items? That would be
insane
!
Orange
: Called "legendary" because it's literally an urban legend perpetuated by Blizzard to keep people playing forever. They'd never actually add something this powerful to the game.
NOW...
Gray
: vendor trash
White
: vendor trash
Green
: vendor trash or DE fodder
Blue
: like Green, but blue-er.
Heirloom
: what you actually wear in every slot from level 1-85
Purple
: what you actually wear in every slot 24 hours after reaching level cap and visiting Loot Piñata Isle.
Orange
: Proof that you know how to spam "LFG celestials" in Loot Piñata Isle general chat.
Just some humor to brighten your day :)

It's a liiiittle more effort than that. I'm just farming Trillium (
via
Ghost Iron) to complete
Secrets of the First Empire
on my warrior (almost second main) as I got lucky in getting the Secrets yesterday/last reset, so I can continue the questline and then farm bosses in ToT
again
.

Tsk, way too much effort. I just idle near the court until the Celestial I need is on <20%, then run in and hit it once before running out again so I don't have to pay attention to AoE I'm supposed to avoid.

completely agreed. I remember in Vanilla when my boyfriend got an epic item (forget what it was called, but it was a shield that gave you bone armor). We all thought he was so, indeed, EPIC, for having a purple item. Now you see people crying "why is bliz making it so hard to get a legendary? I hate having to do this whole questline..."
Honestly, I think they should change the names of rarity level:
blue --> common
purple --> common
legendary --> rare

Then I started pvping on my shaman after I leveled him and heard how all my pvp purps were 'welfare epics'.
Wait, I quit playing when mop came out. They don't call pvp epics, welfare epics anymore?

No. People don't even call them pvp epics. It's more along the lines of "must have at least full tyr + 2 griev" or something similar. Tyr being the last season's best pvp gear now purchasable with honor and griev being this season's best pvp gear.
