Warrior Tier 13 and Visual Retrospective

Adventurers will be tested like never before in 4.3 as they take on Deathwing and his minions, emerging with powerful new treasures. Please enjoy this preview of the warrior tier 13 set, as well as a visual guide to tiers 1 through 12 for Transmogrification purposes.
 


Warrior – Colossal Dragonplate

A simple concept – let’s make a Warrior Tier that looks like Deathwing! Gnarled dragon horn and angular elementium plating with burning fire behind it were the key ingredients.

The shoulder pads and helmets are uniquely modeled for each set, and that gives us great opportunities to create eye-catching silhouettes. In this instance, the sweeping horn shapes ensure a powerfully brutal-looking set for warriors.

Tier 2.5 on every single class is the worst design I've ever seen, Blizzard musta had a bring crack to work day when they made that set.

Tier 6 was the most iconic Warrior set imho. I remember FEARING seeing the opposite faction wearing that set, especially the PvP version. It meant you were about to be obliterated to nothingness if you were flagged.

I knew it. I knew it as soon as I saw Deathwing's WoW model for the first time... when he dies, some idiot is gonna rip off his bottom jaw and use it as a helmet.
I admit, im a little shocked to see that all the Warriors did that instead of it being a wicked unique item drop from him himself (like Rag and Sulfuras) but whatever. Warriors don't have intellect for a reason.
