what exactly is wrong this time? i think sepulcher looks amazing
Right, holy crap, I would love to have some sort of trench coat or Dragon Age Inquistion, Diablo 3/Immortal kind of mage gear, but nope, stuck with the majority of my gear being generic looking robe number #1239 that doesn’t look practical at all for an adventurer to use.

This in my opinion is why trangmogs and transmog farming is such a popular side project in Wow.

There are sets I actually like quite a lot (PvP versions, although I list the Raid sets below):
Cloth
Depraved Beguiler’s Visage (Castle Nathria)
Dark Supplicant’s Garb (SoD)
Leather
Sin Slayer’s Leathers (Castle Nathria)
Plate
Grand Sentinel’s Greatplate (Castle Nathria)
Soulforged Dreadplate (SoD)
The First Eidolon’s Soulsteel (DK - Sepulcher)
Not including the Cov. stuff, which I also tended to like. Disliked most of the current Tier stuff, but well, it’s all a matter of opinion anyway…
Not many people can take the truth being said to their faces…
I actually disagree that the design is lazy, I think the problem is the opposite. I think they’re putting way too much effort into it all when I think most of us (or at least me, personally) would rather have some cool semi-grounded in reality looking armor.
In their defense though, the narrative has become so ridiculous that one has to wonder how are they supposed to match armor design up with trans-dimensional warfare in the actual afterlife?

Pisses me off that we dont get the headwrap or the NPC pirate outfits. The cutlasses from BFA look like toy swords while the vanilla ones still look sharp as hell.

I want to see the Warbringers Plate set remade.
They did an amazing job remaking the plate set in Tomb.
I miss battle-thongs.
yikes, this is pure cringe. no facts to even back up that statement.
You care this much about pixels in a video game"?
I love the Venthyr plate set, its what i’m using right now.
The two gargoyles on the shoulders plus the 2handers are very well designed imo
The proof is in the pudding.
People are allowed to care about things they enjoyed.
If you’re gonna try and bait for an argument, try not to make it so obvious. Seems like the mods are paying attention today.
Last I heard those “original passionate” people turned out to be really horrible human beings.
Irony.
Thumbs aren’t fingers
Not one of the original team who were involved in the first 3 Warcraft games were implicated in such matters.
So you are asking for the Warcraft 1 devs to return and create tier set armor?
This is a weird hill to die on.
But you do you.
A better hill to die on than levying life destroying accusations on the innocent. But as you said:

I have absolutely zero reason to believe that the original Blizzard founders (Mike Morhaime and co) are innocent.
But please continue to tell me how the guys who created Warcraft 1 would be better suited to created tier armor in Shadowlands.
A throwback to old cyclops diver’s helmets. What’s old is new again!
Because it’s still the best part of the expansion.
I think what happened was they systematically replaced people who wanted to build a fun game that would engage people and make them want to bring their irl friends with people who do not value much of what players liked about the old game, and at this point don’t even know how to do those things.
I think “social” has next to nothing to do with it.
False! They are inspired by spreadsheet metrics and the opportunity to make ever more complex systems and grinds to keep the most tolerant players begrudgingly playing.
They were talented at that, despite major character flaws that probably should have kept a number of people from being hired in the first place.

I simply wish for more cloth shirts and 3d armor pieces. I enjoy that gear is now themed around the setting, but I miss the variety…
