Ashkandi let down

[FreakEyy]

Tbh I couldn't care less. It's a good looking weapon. Just be happy that they didn't take something fugly and use it again. Like a level 42 sword or sum sum

[Spl4sh3r]

In my opinion they aren't even like eachother

[Guesswho69]

if they are gonna reuse anything i want warrior t6 reused

As long as they fix the gaping hole in the neck.

Let's not forget the PvP sets in TBC. Nothing more than recolored Tier gear. Still remember my shaman would swap from PvE to PvP and I'd be like "oh now my gear is blue instead of red, cool."

This.

The new model is inspired from the old one. It's not a copy paste. A lot of people will agree they look quiet different.

Overall, Blizzard has done a great job with the models.

Not to mention. I think this is the highest amount of weapon designs for a tier, and we still have Skywall left.

yeah a bit of a let down considering it wasnt naxx where most people didnt see the loot from in there at 60.

This. By God, this.

I had to remind myself that these raids are all supposed to be on the same tier. I don't see how people could complain about Cataclysm continuing Wrath's trend when there's this much diversity in the first tier of Cataclysm content.

I immediately thought of Ashkhandi when I saw that weapon. I'm thrilled about it. Loved that weapon, and I'm glad they're paying tribute to it.
Even though I didn't play any char that could wield it at the time.

Same models here and there is here to stay... As they always have.

Shamans were lucky. Most of the classes just got darker/lighter color of their Tier 6 as PvP sets. And the difference was so small, you practically wouldn't notice it.

I remember screaming at my friend to wear his PvP gear in arena (a warrior). He replied, 'relax dude, I am in PvP gear...'

[darkriver41]

It's called a throwback.

asscandy
just saying

[Speculaas]

It's not simply a reskin. The model is different. Similar stylistically (which makes sense since it's a Blackrock Raid), but not the same model.

I think it looks awesome.

[GeorgeParty]

It's not a reused model but more of a reference to BWL... it is called BWD so it's just a link between the two

Yeah I agree, it's like how in ZG (Vanilla troll raid) they had Zin'Rohk, The Destroyer of Worlds http://www.wowhead.com/item=19854 and in ZA (TBC Troll Raid) they had Jin'Rohk, The Great Apocalypse http://www.wowhead.com/item=33478.

They are more sister blades (or Brother blades if you like) than a clone .

Plus it is a niice looking sword.


(unlike Season 3 PVP sword which was a blatant copy of Jin'rohk with diffo colours), then again PVP gear designers never did have any imagination all except maybe one or 2 bits of season gear is incredibly dull compared to PVE gear.

[Charo]

I found the ones in the really ghastly color "set" more intimidating usually, as tier 2 had tanking stats while the off-set pieces, ugly as they were, had dps stats.

these guys??

This picture reminds me of something... Where are all of the night elf warriors? Back in vanilla I seem to remember most of the warriors I ran into in BGs being night elves, but now most of them are either human, gnome, or draenei.

[General_Typhus]

I am REALLY glad they are doing this. Primarily because its badass, but the added bonus is it makes people whine for no reason about how unoriginal wow is and look like tools in general. Hah.
