Briefly, Blizzard is adding several artefact appearances that by default are hidden from the artefact appearance UI...

1. Killing in PvP and PvE with a hidden artefact appearance active unlocks up to 3 more hidden appearances (1k player kills, 100 dungeons, 200 world quests). These should be the easiest (albeit most time consuming) to get, at least once you unlock one hidden appearance. At the time of writing it is not known whether you need 1,000 honourable kills or 1,000 killing blows for the player kills part to work.

2. Acquire one of the class-specific items from the list below and use it:

List of consumables

(Note: Artefact Research Notes are a separate thing entirely)

For example, "Designs of the Grand Architect" (for Beast Mastery hunters) costs 8,000 gold and is sold by a vendor in Dalaran. Meanwhile, the "Crest of ______" items are gated behind the PvP Prestige system, and you can only unlock them all by doing grinding prestige ranks in each season. Currently there are 4 prestige ranks, and Crest items are unlocked at 5, 9, and 13*. This tweet explains a bit about the PvP Prestige system gating.

Hope this all helps :) .

= + =

29th May: Updated point #1 with some changes: unlocks require dungeons & world quests, not enemy kills.

There is a BM hunter one from the Engineering vendor in Dalaran (the new one). It will cost you 8k gold, but it looks amazing.

Anyone know how to get it back to the original appearance? There was no preview about how it would look before i used it. I like the original better.
**Edit: I found it. Go to your class hall and click on the "altar" for your artifact weapon, theres an Appearance tab at the bottom.

Kommentar von Lostelf

For the appearances that come from drops etc...
Do you have the artefact equipped in order for say... The fire Mage skin to drop? Or will it drop whilst you're in frost spec with the frost artefact?

Kommentar von haghala

Here is a macro to track all three of the hidden achievements for the recolor's
/run local _,_,_,a, b = GetAchievementCriteriaInfo(11152,1) local _,_,_,c, d = GetAchievementCriteriaInfo(11153,1) local _,_,_,e, f = GetAchievementCriteriaInfo(11154,1) print("Dungeons: "..a.."/"..b) print("WQs: "..c.."/"..d) print("Kills: "..e.."/"..f)

Kommentar von Alirana

In case anyone like me was wondering: You CAN transmog an artifact weapon with a hidden apperance active and STILL get credit for the achievements to unlock additional skins.

Kommentar von Kamikaze28

This macro correctly calculates and displays the progress towards all 3 remaining color variants.

/run local a,x,g,b,y=0,11152,GetAchievementCriteriaInfo;for i=1,11,1 do _,_,_,y,b=g(x,i);a=a+y;end;print("Dungeons: "..a.."/"..b);_,_,_,a,b=g(x+1,1);print("WQs: "..a.."/"..b);_,_,_,a,b=g(x+2,1);print("Kills: "..a.."/"..b);

Edit: The dungeon tracking achievement did not get a 12th criterion for Return to Karazhan. I would therefore argue that it does not contribute to unlocking the 2nd color tint of your hidden appearance. Good news: the macro is still correct as of patch 7.1; Bad news: you'll have to complete 100 of the initial Legion dungeons.

Kommentar von mrdiablo

You can display the total amount of dungeons you already completed with this script.
/script local x = 0 for i=0,11,1 do local _,_,_,a,b = GetAchievementCriteriaInfo(11152,i) x=x+a end print("Total dungeons: " .. x)

Kommentar von Kanariya

For the World Quests appearance: Completing a World Quest instantly with the respective order hall advancements (ex. Arkane Intuition) counts.

Kommentar von datgrl

For Hunters, visiting Hobart in Dalaran: If you want to see the animation you get when you unlock the ability, be sure to move outside. I opened mine while standing next to Hobart and got a nice close up of the stone wall with a 180 degree rotation.

Kommentar von Carfentanil

Hello all, I am commenting today to tell you it is entirely possible to do the 200 World Quest tint in Dragonflight all in the same day. However, it will require roughly around 14 hours of straight World Quests (thats how long it took on my Warrior). First I started with the World quests that were about to reset in the morning in legion and BfA then did all of their World Quests including every possible expansion afterwards and their related zones with World Quests. However, i did take quite few short breaks that added up so if you have the ability to do it all straight then I imagine will be shorter than 14 hours. Hope this helps anyone who is dreading the amount World Quests needed.
