    Prideful Gladiator

    It looks like all blizz will be doing with prideful gladiator is switching the faction colors of the grievous gear. I dont know how I feel about that. My tauren DK looks awesome in the red gear and I would like the blue gear as well as the alliance version of the 2 handed sword but this removes the fun of checking on MMOchamp for what the new gear is going to look like. Yes I understand that blizz is putting almost all of their developers on WOD so they have to introduce the new season as cheaply as possible but I dont know if its going to feel like anything more than the current patch instead of a new season.

    I'm hoping that its place holder but seeing that they put the effort in to switch the colours i'm not so sure. I hope i'm right though.

    Wouldn't that just mean the elite gear is identical to how it looks currently? That'd be dumb I guess.

    I would be utterly shocked if they introduced 11 brand new sets for a stopgap season. I'm fine with the color switch as I was seriously jealous of the alliance DK set and there are probably some other recolors my alts will be happy to have access to.

    Was not a fan of the Grievous weapon artwork at all though, so I'm still hoping for something new there. Maybe they could have a 2H mace this time around at least?

    I agree, the monk set was really lackluster. tyrannical set was so awesome

    Probably anywhere from 3 to maybe 6 weeks from now I'm guessing. There will still be a 2 week warning before they end the season.

    i think he meant the new gear(new models) will have swapped colors. i rly dont see the reason of swaping colors, arent we still at war and shit??? why would I be wearing my enemies' colors??

    Wow... I understand they want to push WoD, but using last seasons (Grevious) gear and just flipping the factions colors? That's pretty god damn weak.

    If i am understanding this correctly, i am pretty sure blizzard is spending majority of their time working on WOD rather than trying to design a whole completely armor set for another season, they should've just called this season 14.5, because usually all seasons get a new armor set, in which i understand your comment.

    These "new" sets are just another cheap thing from Blizzard just to make us wait longer for WoD.

    There are plenty better designs for PvP armors, they did actually bad job, currently PvP armor is a patchwork of other armors with recolor and some spikes.

    PvE players would cry if PvP players had one more tier of item skin.
