I just took a look at what the elite sets will look like for next season. Very purple all around.
More pirate gear for rogues…
Monk looks pretty sick.
Druid is… cool I guess? Skeletal doesn’t feel druidic.
Paladin looks like they wanted to be a warrior but fell into the shadow realm.
DK, Sham and Mage all have really insane sets, wish I played those classes.
I’m all for it for the Kul’Tirans, but I’m a worgen and I haven’t felt that any transmog has actually fit for a worgen druid. Not even the worgen race set or the “gilnean noble.” The closest I’ve felt to having a real mog for feral worgen has been this season’s pvp (both elite and non-elite), MoP heroic throne rogue look-a-like, and being basically naked with different worgen skin colors. Everything else feels like balance/resto or night elf themed.
This sucks for me more than most probably. Purple is one of my least favorite colors. Crown Royal is the only thing in the world that purple works for.
Not hating on the color, just comes off as really feminine imo, which is the opposite of the class fantasy I’m going for.
I compared Zerved’s linked set to the one from the preview of S2 on the blizzard page and they look identical so I’m gonna say yes confirmed elite colors. Un4ch.
Thats the issue with certain classes tied so closely to a races theme. Tauren paladins look terrible in most paladin tier sets because they don’t work with the tribal look Tauren look best in. Same for non horde shamans, and non night elf druids.
This is life correcting itself. A paladin , its aesthetic effects soundd and entire look comes from our azerothian paladins from the alliance of old. Ofcourse fake cringe race added later doesnt fit the theme and never will
I dont mind worgen druids. Not entirely out of the realm. Blizzard did an ok job with the whole curse wild god thing.
But there are some race class combinations that irk me, tauren / trol paladin, goblin shaman, tauren rogue, draenei warlock, even kultiran shaman doesnt really sit right with me. Oh right almost forgot, the entire vulpera race just delete it from the game.
Priest sets have been fire for a while now. Straight up looks like Raiden.
Monk is gonna look awesome on some races too, rogue looks great. Mage has some pieces that will look cool when used, but overall wayyy too much crystal going on. Looks like one of those kits you got as a kid to grow crystals in a container.
Every time I look at new tier sets, I’m also reminded how stupid evokers look.
I just didnt find it fitting for the prime race that was hunted down by the legion/fel for millenia o ever even consider using it. Could have relaased manari allied race or whatever.
