We�ve added a preview of the tier-9 class sets that will be offered in patch 3.2, Call of the Crusade, and we�re doing things a little differently this time around.

Warlock (Alliance)



Shaman (Horde)



Mage (Alliance)



Priest (Alliance)



Hunter (Horde)
|||It is more like cloth ( slightly different colors ) and mail ( slightly different colors ). And Mail looks like the hunter T3 from old world naxx.|||I wonder how many shades of BROWN they can fit in the Druid one?|||I'm so disappointed =/

Yay for originality Blizz. At least season 7 gear is completly different between classes.|||What IS it with the huge shoulders? I just don't get it - it looks ridiculous on the cloth and rather silly on the others. I kind of get it for plate, but a priest with those shoulders looks silly.

And what did they do, fire their art department?|||Quote:

Maybe they're all just huge fans of Dallas and Dynasty and all the other naff 80's series where those silly shoulders were soooo trendy way back when ...|||if you look at the colours they are all based on the Tier 2 scheme and yeah this is the most fail set blizzard has come up with.|||I think the point from now on is to make one Tier x model and then make the others variations of it. So ppl in the same tier will sorta look similar.

Saves on development costs?

And big shoulders have ALWAYS been a staple in wow tier gear... I don't understand what the fuss is about this late in the game.|||Quote:

Has been that way since the beginning of BC. Remember the uproar when the first arena sets were nothing but the T4 sets in slightly different colors ?|||Quote:

Seriously. The AC is building an army. Do you want them to look like a bunch of ragtag noobs or an imposing force?
