Death Knight 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 death knight tier 13 set, as well as a visual guide to tiers 7 through 12 for Transmogrification purposes.
 

Death Knight – Necrotic Boneplate

The death knight tier sets are always fun to design. Traditionally black and bristling with skulls, this set was more challengingto create, as the designers called for a bone-themed set that downplayed the most iconic of skeletal components -- the skull!

The Necrotic Boneplate set features bones stretched and twisted into unnatural shapes by sorcerous means.

Tier 7.5 25 set with Tier 8 10 helmet is my favorite DK transmog set. But the best actual complete set is probably Scourgelord, it's the closest looking to The Lich King's armor. And Arthas/The Lich King is the greatest character in Warcraft's lore, period.

Tier 10.5 (10H/25) 7.5 9 doesn't really seem Death Knight but I like it and of course 8.5 XD

@Lunaryuz: T10/10.5 doesn't seem Death Knight? IMO T10/10.5 is the iconic DK set... the Scourgelord set absolutely embodies everything that is Death Knight to me and looks fantastic... T8/8.5 also look very Death Knight-like as well... Now T9 is a completely different story, and T7 is just plain ugly IMO... I like T12 but it doesn't scream "Death Knight" either.

Is it just me, or does T12 remind you of the kraken?

For T10.5, There are no boots in the set. How would you go about getting the matching boots? I'm guessing it drops off a boss but does anybody know which one? Thanks in advance.

Tier 13 looks way too similar to level 70 PVP gear, amirite? If they stuck with the same ideas they had for Tier 9, I'd be a lot happier with the newer gear.

T 8.5, 10.5 (10H), 11, and 11.5 are the coolest. Gotta go with 8.5 and 11.
