Make 9.1 Uther Armor PC Obtainable

Community General Discussion

In patch 9.1, a model of Uther Lightbringer was added to the game where he is wearing the traditional uniform of the Silver Hand; a look that is so iconic, that it has now held presence in Warcraft 3, World of Warcraft, Heroes of the Storm, and Hearthstone.

Uther Armor

It’s been 16 years, and human Paladins still have no way of wearing the same armor used by the Knights of the Silver Hand in Warcraft III -(their premier faction) even after the Order was fully restored in Legion.

The Grand Marshals version of the set introduced in Classic, was for some terrible reason, made a warrior-only class armor set. There has never been an option for Paladins to wear the standard uniform of the Silver Hand.

Given that every Knight of the Silver Hand receives the same Pauldrons, stole, hammer, and armor during their knighting ceremony in the books; and all the Warcraft 3 Paladins look exactly like Uther - can we human Paladins PLEASE just get a break and get our official uniform added to the game?

Dwarves got the Mountain King set and Blood Elves got the Spellbreaker armor.

When can I wear the armor my class-faction uses?

This is like playing a Jedi in a Star Wars game where only NPCs can have lightsabers…

I really like the armor they do for some NPC’s, shame they don’t put that ‘creativity’ or imagination into doing it for players.

Like the Legion Thrall with his akuma beads around his neck and ragged coat thingie… Don’t get me started on the detail to Jaina’s armor.

I know right?

After 16 years I’d kinda like my Paladin to be able to wear the armor used in the lore by his faction. :upside_down_face:

It’d be pretty neat even if they did a tier thing where you worked up your way into the rankings and get upgraded armor to represent that with the final tier having a close appearance to the quality of said NPC.

Fully agree.

I have no doubt that it would be easy to implement, and it would give many long time players an immense satisfaction to look like they belong to the Knights of the Silver Hand. There are so many armor options only given to NPC’s and it’s a little infuriating.
