As the name implies they were T.5, the set bonuses didn’t change and the stats were the same stats just upped a little and the text color was purple. That’s it, they didn’t change into super items.

Eh, some of the pieces are super items, comparable to tier 3…

If you are talking about the footwear, it is locked behind the Baron run. If it is BiS prior to Naxx, it deserves it.

This is another change that i support!
I got my full 0.5 set on my Warrior. It took FOR EVER to finish, though. I didn’t even need half the set by the time I earned it all lol.

Those boots are the exception, not the rule.

Ahh no, All of the epic pieces in tier 0.5 are on par with tier 2 and sometimes tier 3. There are 4 epic pieces in each set of 8.

No Changes
You obviously haven’t looked at the sets. Yes they might have the itemisation of equal to tier 2 but the whole set is completely useless for specialised content.
Warrior set is useless for tanking and dpsing.
Druid set is useless for balance,feral and resto.
Mage/lock/hunter/rogue sets don’t have enough hit.
Shaman set is useless for enhance,resto and ele.
The fact of the matter is it’s a dps/HPS/survivability LOSS to equip dungeon 2 set.

So you’re completely for the release of dungeon sets @ launch? good to know since they were around in 1.12.

From blizzards planned patch release point. Classic will have 4 consolidated releases in content. No changes would imply D2 released in phase 3.

You realise you almost never equip a full set of gear right. It is not a dps loss to equip T0.5 helm as a rogue or T0.5 boots as a warrior unless you’re actively clearing naxx and have access to that gear.
I don’t understand where you’re coming from at all.

Well then you better call up blizzard and tell them to cancel DM to be released at start since that gear is better that most raid items with BiS lists with that logic, too.
It hasn’t actually been confirmed that “content bucket 1” is going to be there immediately upon release, as far as I’ve seen… Just that Diremaul launches at the same time that MC/etc all launch… That could very well be at release (and I’d even concede that’s the most likely scenario), but it’s a mistake to just assume. There could very well be short grace period post launch, but before “content bucket 1”.
dire maul gear isn’t better than t2/t3 only t1. regardless of that id still prefer dire maul released later like it was originally.

And gated behind arguably the most difficult encounter in the game.
And how many of those pieces did you acquire during vanilla?

Except we’re talking about the set as a whole not cherry picked pieces.

The fact is the people who are adamant against T0.5 being put to a more relevant time release have neither attempted to collect the pieces, nor want their PvE BiS lists altered.
The fact that there is a single item that is considered above average (the warrior boots), the entirety of the rest of the content, quest, and all the remaining not so great items should be locked away until they are entirely irrelevant and made moot. Pretty suspect reasoning imo.

how many did you do? I honestly can’t remember, i may have done a couple, but I was a fairly hardcore raider back then so I had less incentive really.
