    The general direction of item design sucks since WotLK. Partially it's ok but this rough design with bright edges lets look them primitive. Compare classic / bc weapons to the current ones. It's a huge difference.

    Also, just found this (not WoW related, but still) - it is possible to have scary AND Hello Kitty (and no, I won't resize these images, the awesomeness that is EVE cannot be contained in small pics...and I don't know how ). Last one, I promise!

    In your opinion. I find that far from the truth in my own.

    Cheery picking mostly incomplete models doesn't really do your point justice.

    Weapons and armor are generally done by the theme of the raid and I guess the majority of people just love the theme of weapons from dragon related raids (BWL, BWD etc) take a look at non-set AQ armor and then claim Blizzard puts no effort into it anymore that stuff has the same graphics as level 40 armor.

    Then again this will always happen, in 3 years people will say how awesome MoP was and how the current expansion sucks, it's like there is a pattern or somthing.

Blue, purple, green, yellow, red, and orange do not belong together (seems like they took the entire RGB color model and threw it at the set!). The set looks amazing, but the colors used devalue it a lot.
    There are shit tons of over the top,super colorful armors and weapons in vanilla and TBC.

    WotLK weapons are amazing. ICC has some of the most well designed gear models in the game. Cataclysm did too, and mists has some great weapon models... the dragonhead polearm random-drop green looks fantastic.

    There are a handful of good looking BC weapons that aren't just recolored vanilla models, and those weapons really only look cool by themselves... floaty pink blue and yellow crystal axe... alright, now what armor set does that match, exactly? And a vast, VAST majority of Vanilla weapons, right up until the raids themselves, were straight up basic swords and axes. And then AQ weapon models... not only are they weird and organic, most of them were pink or magenta for some undiscernible reason.

    The OP specifically picked the "pink" skins for all those weapons, when two or three alternate skins also exist for all of them.

    I said partially they were ok. I have some favorites from WotLK and even Cataclysm, but they are only a "few". I loved most weapons in classic (except the AQ ones), and BC (okay, the draenei themed were awkward, indeed), due to the fact they was fine detailed, not very crooked and textured like rough metal or stone. Same for the armor sets.

    most weapon skins released next tier are actually freaking badass.
    however you picked the least badass ones and pretended they all were like that.
    thats a lame move.

    wowhead had a post with all models, dunno if MMO-C had one but i didnt see it.
    so here the wowhead one http://www.wowhead.com/forums&topic=215001

    The upper right one is black-ish. And then there's the blue and the purple one, in addition to the pink one.

    And my other points still stand. There are three other wand colors; a blue one, a red one, and a green one, three other crossbow colors, blue green and red, three other offhand crystal colors, green, blue, and purple, and three other 1h mace colors of that model, blue and yellow, green, and red.

    And then look at some of the other weapon models on that very page. They have other 1h maces that are literally drills, the 2h maces topped with plates bearing jagged spikes, fiery 1h iron wolfhead axes, the amber 1h swords that look ridiculously nice, and fist weapons that look on-par with the al'ar ones.

    Selective sample is selective.

    Yea this set is actually really amazing. Also the shoulders are glitched in to the helm in this picture so it's not even accurate.

    The axe looks pretty awesome even though it's pink, but that's only one version of it.

    Hate to break the news to you, but when I was a kid, I liked gritty stuff. Skulls? Yes please. Blood? Rain it on me, man. Over the top violence? BRING IT ON.

    I liked He-man (though I liked skeletor more. skulls >>>>>>>> muscles), and I puked rainbows (gritty, dark and bloody rainbows) when I first watched Fist of the North star and Akira (didn't understand most of it though).


    Today? I'm not a bronie, but I'd take fluttershy over (yet another) Old god abomination any day of the week (unless it's Nyarlathotep (moe version))

    Needs more pink.

    Sorry but I liked the bright TBC style. Gritty and real is boring.

    Well, the models and/or textures are possibly unfinished, pink may be the pallet-swap placeholder for the different colours of the different tiers, Garish pink could be the flex-raid colour scheme, one of the item designers likes candy-colours (after two expansions of grey and brown)... It can be several things besides Garrosh's hidden brony-side :P

    And if it goes live that way there's always transmogging, i use it a lot myself, since the "clouds and serpents"-style of MoP-gear in general doesn't appeal to me...
