We’re NOT in a dress again

mmo-champion.com is all over the PTR for 3.1 coming out today and is data mining like their life depended on it. I’m not going to recycle the notes they put up, but I’ll have a more thoughtful analysis when the dust settles.

In the meantime, onto more important things… Tier 8!

Over at Maintankadin, one of the posters found the helm/shoulders to Paladin Tier 8 in this thread.

Which means… we’re in a dress again…

Here’s the art from the booklet that came with the collector’s edition of WotLK that main suspected would be either the Shammy or the Pally T8:

Eh, it’s kind of cool. But, it’s really hard to tank stuff when you keep stepping on your skirt.

UPDATE: Ah, my panic was premature and thankfully shortlived. Here is the true Pally T8.

Bravo, Katamai at Maintankadin, for digging this up.

So… Robopallies or Pallybots?

    Although slightly saddened by the lack of skirts, and still slightly hopeful that kilts will be the mainstay of the Shammy set, I am a bit underwhelmed by the appearance of your tier set, I think the tier 7 is so thoroughly Pally, albeit a bit Gundam, and this one is, well, a bit purple?
    It seems better fitting on a Stormwind city guard.

    It’s our Iron Man tier set!

    I have to say that all I can look at are the shoulders, and it looks like some wee spaceship has come to land on either of the pally shoulders.
