Claim Your Class's Asian Themed t14
|
This thread is to discuss and promote what you think your class should be donning come MoP's Tier 14 (and/or appropriate season)
To kick-start, I think druids should have a fox-leather set, in reference to the nine-tails of eastern mythology. It ties into our link to the spirits of the wild with a very strong oriental theme. Possible name would be "Nine-Tailed Vestments", or "Vestments of the Fox Spirit" |

Rogues should have a rat based set. Garments of the Cunning Rodent

warrs have a samurai theme(or a yeti of the himalayas)
Rogues.... Would prob have a ninja kind of set paladins as dragon set? Dks might have a ghostly thing Warlocks or shamans can have a raijin lookin set Locks cuz its a demon, shammies cuz it has the power of lightning. Other then that I have no idea PS: I cant think of any names for the sets, sry sry |

@Arcades at first, I thought you were trying to be funny... then I remembered the Chinese calendar :P 11 Classes, 12 Signs. |

Well whatever the DK set is it better not have any bones showing.

DK's could have a sha-themed armour-set, since of all the classes, they seem to be founts of negativity.
something like, "Dark Heart Battlegear", or "Sha-flesh Armor" edit: it makes sense, as well, since DK's usually have armor sets that have the closest ties to the Old Gods, and if the Sha aren't in some way related to the Old Gods, I'll be shocked. |

Samurai is a Japanese thing, possible later tier design, but more than likely it'll be a distinct Chinese design for tier 14. |
|
|
Well I'm thinking Asia in general, not just china and stuffs
|
|
|
Yeah, I can understand that. The problem is that China and Japan are different cultures, and MoP needs a really unified Chinese theme out the box. Once we get into tier 15/16 areas, we can start to relax the restriction and start incorporating other Asian cultures like Korean and Japanese. |

Well, paying little to no heed whatsoever to the actual qualities attributed to the zodiac animals I'll suggest this:
Death Knight - Ox Druid - Tiger Hunter - Dog Mage - Rooster Monk - Monkey Paladin - Horse Priest - Boar Rogue - Rat Shaman - Snake Warlock - Ram Warrior - Hare |
|
I'm suprised you are going with the zodiac. I figured blizz would just stick everyone in a samurai/ninja get up and class it a day.
|
|
Volkrin, I would switch Warrior and Priest.
|
|
Hunters: could have a mongel or any "stepps nomad" type of look.
Warriors: samurai, chinese foot soilder, or some mix of the two. Rogues: um......ninjas! Mages: they could have a chinese scholar look to them. Priests: they could have the shaolin monk look or any other buddist monk look to them. monks: similar to the priests' styles The other classes i got either no idea what they should look like with out conflicting with the same styles as above for the mentioned classes. |
|
|
I thought of that, but warriors have already had a boar themed set with T10. |
|
b-b-b-but i don't want an Asian themed T14. I'm all for MoP and some Asian themed loot but i want my main level 90 death knight gear to still feel Death Knighty. (remembers they added transmog)Thank god.
