New, Unattainable Armor Sets!

[Circuit]

I actually like pretty much every one of these. However, they continue their tradition of giving Paladins the most ridiculous helms in the game with the Tier 4 one. Four's on the left, Five on the right. They be clickable too, yo.

Oh, and here's an unnecessarily long video (http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-8713837243254352524&q=tier+5&hl=en)featuring all of the armors in motion with some nice, cliche'd alt-rock accompaniment.

[Sir Lucius]

I must say, that tier 5 mage set is probably my favorite one. It's just very humble.

[pogozorro]

I like the Paladin teir 4 and the druid sets.

[Sir Lucius]

You liar. NO ONE like the Paladin sets.

[Tai]

Can't argue with skulls stuck on spikes. :D

[Harka]

Paladin 5 looks like a modified Cylon raider.

[Circuit]

Pogo, the t4 paladin set looks great except for the stupid jewel-horned rhino helmet.

[pogozorro]

It looks bad in pictures, but much better in game.

[Patton]

ugliest hunter shoulders ever

how would you ever fit through a doorway with those things on

[jackrabbit]

I just hope that at least SOME of these items will be achievable for Martians.

And to raiders that will essentially be grinding from 60 to 70 in all the same gear I say: OMG LOL

[Sir Lucius]

2 pieces (or tokens I suppose they are) drop from Karazhan, a ten man instance. Martians have been able to field 10 mans before, but it's a pretty big instance (12 bosses). Since honor doesn't decay, and arena only requires 10 matches per week per team with 30% attendance requirements for members, it's really just a matter of how much you play, not how many people you play with and when you play.

[Circuit]

Well, I would assume that those high end 10 man instances require pretty good gear. I'd still give it a shot regardless, though. :)

[Sir Lucius]

The progression should be pretty straight forward, but you don't get full tier 4 until the first 25 man. There are many different ways to get comparable gear in the expansion, but no one is going to be forced to raid. Still, they're 25 mans and a lot smaller than MC. Don't approach it with a defeatist attitude in any case.

[pogozorro]

Definitely do-able.

We may have to pull around five in due to schedules and the like, but we will see the inside of the 25 mans on a regular basis.

[BoX]

Expected T6 for warriors.

[Falhawk]

when pogo talks about us doing 25 man raids I do admit I get turgid

btw should we talk about dkp?

[pogozorro]

I am still investigating the differing types.

am I the only one?

[pogozorro]

I made him erect.

[Andri]

What will the reset times be for the BC instances? One full week like MC, BWL etc.?

I love the warlock outfits. Tier 4 rogues look totally cool too. And priests finally got head pieces that are ugly enough for me to want to deselect the "show helm" function. :(

[Patton]

I've had "Show Helm" unchecked since forever. I only turned it on yesterday because the deepdive helm looks so badass.

But the Roman Soldier PvP helmet, the Beaststalker "Ugliest Wolf-thing Ever" Helm, and the Backwood "Hi I'm using hair plugs made out of leaves" Helm have never appealed to me. Honestly, the coolest looking helm is the model they use for a bunch of helms, like the Helm of Narv, the Horns of Eranikus, the helm that drops off the dude in the SM armory, etc.

[jackrabbit]

I'm hoping in BC they have more than the same 6 helmet models and I can turn that option back on. I don't think I'd use it unless I manged an epic class helm, and then only for my Rogue. The other ones look pretty stupid.

[Fool]

I like the Tier 5 hunter look, even with the shoulders of doom. It's no longer puke green.
