Mage Tier 13 and Visual Retrospective

Is it me or do the MAge shoulders and Helm look very engineer looking. The shoulders have cogs and the Helm looks like he is going cave diving

Cybergoth lol

OT: I like it honestly. Not the best looking mage set, but nice nonetheless.

T7 was T3 just different colors. Makes it an absolute dud automatically. Ever seen "Grandma's Boy"?

Mage T5, T10.5, and T11.5 were all good.

Yeah...and how the Tier gear and PvP gear looked nothing alike. (insert sarcasm here)

Blizz, Blizz, Blizz...I know you've got MacGyver locked up in your design team headquarters, but why on earth did you give him a mattress and some spare parts from a steam-powered machine to get inspiration?

Im sorry mages.../busts a rib

Fail! This is the worst set ever!

Makes me think "Chicken Run" Wire marks from the cage and everything.

I don't agree with the design myself, but the color scheme is done rather well. Either way, you've gotta admit it'll look good on gnome mages if nothing else.

This is soooooooooo bad. What the hell was Blizzard thinking? I'm worried about the sets we've yet to see. Priest tier better be good!!

Blizzard was thinking they liked the design of the set.

Also, beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

Actually looks kinda cool IMO, much more unique than previous tiers.

no, no...not unique at all.

Unique is Tier 8. Blizz failed again.

This is unique. No other tier looks even remotely like this.

so did that undead in the sunstrider gear just sorta stumble into the wrong party, or did he photobomb the armor lineup?

When was the last time you saw Alliance wearing the Horde tier?

Timelord Regalia looks amazing! One of the best sets of any class armor. Very steampunk.

anyone notice they are not showing the recolors of heroic version? too lazy?

About as lazy as you were to not use capitalization in your post.

/facepalm

Why have I gone through over 30 pages of posts and not yet seen any mage + TARDIS photoshops?The mind, it boggles.

I must say that this set of Tier is absolutely horrid. Somebody tell me how goggles and some cogwheel shoulders reflect what a mage is/stands for. This set of tier screams Gnome mages. If thats what you were going for Blizz then you hit the nail on the head. Blizz calls this Timelord... Ok, i can see the sense in that (Time Warp) This doesnt at all reflect the feel of Time Warp though. I can deal with the color scheme thats fine but the over all concept of this set just doesnt make sense to me at all. I would love for the mages out there to come together and petition this terrible set. Blizz must reconsider the design. Any other mages with me??
