It’s official in my mind. Either blizz hates mail wearers or the design team for mail wearers just absolutely stinks and needs to be replaced. There isn’t a single decent mail transmog gear availble both in retail and in MOP remix. This is SO sad. Please get a new design team for the hunter class and/or other mail wearers. Yuck!
the ONLY decent set is the shaman wolf set dragonflght season 3.
Shaman sets have always been outliers. They’re not designed with the same theme as the rest of the mail. They’ve always been more or less decent. Whenever I can, and I can get them without having to wear a dress, I wear shaman lookalike sets.
I don’t play Hunters so I don’t know what all their tier sets look like. Most of the questing /leveling sets are pretty plain and basic just like mail. Some are hit or miss. Lately they’ve been more hit though, even for mail. Looking at some of the mail sets from DF and SL, most of them are actually not bad.
Though found the new hunter tmog to be ok if you hid the shoulders and helmet. Shaman on the other hand was a disappointed, looked like a cata levelling set.
Now I don’t main anything that wears mail so maybe I’m off base but I think that perhaps they should go back to the core concept of “mail”. By that I mean there is a surprising lack of “chain mail” looking armor in the game.
With most of the mail looking closer to the other types of armor.
Granted, I don’t play as often as I used to, but the one chainmail like set I remember seeing on my hunter is the Horde version of the Darkshore warfront set. Kinda weird there’s not more.
