Let the Tiers Flow

Micah just contacted me and said that there's been shots of the T5 sets leaking out. Here's our set - cool eh? Still with the theme of a crystal on the helm. Here's Priest and Warlock.

Of those three, Warlocks win hands-down. But then what else is new in the expansion?

Looks like our set will be the next Dragonstalker - with much potential to be cool, but with an awful color scheme. It seems they were going for a sort of purple plasma theme. Hopefully it looks cooler and has animations in game.

I'd like to see different angles of the helm, also. From the front angle, it looks like one of the current and boring helm designs already in the game.

... It had been mentioned before, wondering if .5 was worth it, or tier 2, or whatever you're finishing grinding out..

This stuff makes it worth it, if only to have something that doesn't look fairly retarded. This armor was made by gnomes, gnomes who produce plasma screen tvs, and know no other way to live. I love purple. The purple/silver on soulforge is fairly boss. the inquisitor look of judgement bespeaks of awesome. This bespeaks of knowing how to make a nice quiche, which goes with the window dressing.

And the priest looks like they shot for and didn't quite make the Tyrael look from Diablo. Which I was honestly hoping for in our own future.. darkened gold with a white cowl, epic, but holy, but ready to stomp out evil.

LOL - I wasn't going to say it, but I'll laugh heartily now that it's out.

.. actually, I'd like to make an addendum to my earlier remarks. This actually does resemble something already in game; something which anyone familiar with the warlock class might recognize. Imagine that costume in dark blue.

Hint: The summoned kind, not the German made.

Purple Power Ranger!!! RoXXorz!

Yes, both the priest and warlock suits are vastly cooler, but considering what we usually end up with, this ain't half bad...

...although a tier 6 revision of Judgement would be waaaaay cooler. C'est la vie.

Hate to burst your bubble, boys, but the lock set looks like it was designed by a white-trailer-trash psuedo-goth emotastic teen that listens to only death metal and thinks that Todd McFarlayne is an artistic genius...

...and all I'm wondering is when the marshmellows on his shoulders will be ready.

The white version posted looks pretty sweet, if still a little Cylon. Really the only thing wrong with the tier 4-5 sets is the pink, and it's not even that big a deal for the tier 4. I just hope the final tier 5 is changed.

It's pink because our "pally" color is pink.

On further thought, I think it must be a joke. They designed the armor, and then for fun they made it pink.

Blizz Employee: "Hey, what if we made the set pink and purple!? The paladins would shit bricks about it!"

I just hope the joke ends before the set is released :P.

Anyone have a link of the original again? It is "bandwidth exceeded".

You can get around photobucket's bandwidth exceeded thing if you paste the url directly into your address bar.

Cool!??! That is the most awful looking set ever. Not only in color, but in shape and texture too. A recolor improves it drastically, but it still sucks.
