Nothing beats Cata. I would post the S9 set, but blizzard refuses to give the whole set back to me
cata elite sets was absolutely the best across the board unless you played a warlock or rogue (ugly af).
MoP had a few bangers like s12 dk but imo was mostly bleh
WoD s16 was the absolute peak of elite sets (first season) imo. For some reason this is the only season where instead of just a straight recolor of mythic raids they actually did new shoulders/helm/belt to transform the set. S16 elite warrior is still one of the most iconic sets of all time pvp wise. The rest of the expansionâs sets was trash
Legion was decent across the board similiar to cata but not quite as strong. Having them be obtainable as a full set at once was a nice qol.
All BFA sets was trash
Shadowlands sets are alright but no class specific sets is lame and it really makes them feel less valuable/interesting when you see literally every plate user running around in the elite set from s1.
s1 sl elite set shoulda been a pally set and this seasons set shoulda been a dk set
Both cloth elite sets in SL thus far has been golden/priest color themed. Unlucky
S11/S12 Lock because you donât really see them anymore
s11/S12 for Paladins was cool for the same reason
wods1 druid set was kewl
s14 rogue was kewl
s11/s12 DK was awesome
s11 rogue forsure, âtwas super nice
feel like iâm forgetting a lot of stuff but honestly it kinda hurts to remember because those were the days that someone put effort into this game and now we have this degenerate pixelated recolored garbage to earn
I mean the sets in sl are very detailed, but just so generic and bland because itâs not tied to a class, just to an armor type. Im also not speaking about the 4 new ââcovenant transmogââ from 9.1 that is usable for all armor types, those are terrible
Which is bad
all cata elite sets are top tier, mine being my favorite
pee stain elite set
One Iâm wearing (Vindic War)
Primal War
Ruthless War
Vindic DK
Cata DK
Ruthless DK
Cruel Paladin
Cata Paladin
Cataclysmic paladin
Tyrannical paladin
Primal warrior
Cruel dk and priest
This seasonâs set should have been something that wasnât a reskin of gear that existed last patch
Could be better. Could be worse.
Whatever the last season of legion was for warrior. That set looked awesome.
2nd has to be Deadly paladin
Literally couldnât be worse.
BFA season 2
This is only my 2nd season doing PVP but I really like both elite sets so far. I think this seasonsâ would be infinitely better with a different color scheme though.
cloth set = this season set
plate set = legion season sets
mail set = no idea since i never played mail class before
You almost had me there, but no. Still worse.
Really close though.
Malevolent Warr
Demonic monk. Hands down the best. Followed closely behind the legion s3/4 white mage set.
