PTR: Screenshots of the 'Tier 5' weapons

Screenshots were posted early this morning showing off the new weapons meant to go with the Tier 5 sets. Now before anyone thinks that they've changed the set bonuses to include weapons; they haven't to my knowledge. These just happen to be weapons that continue the theme and colors of the Tier 5 armor sets. (Which means there are some wicked cool looking weapons in the group!)
At the moment, the exact drop locations haven't been listed, beyond the Paladin-set match Hammer of Atonement, which dropped for Impervious the other day on the PTR. I suspect we'll be seeing some more stats before long, especially with the Devs focusing the testing on newer bosses lately.

I'm gonna go ahead and say HUNTERS FTW!!! That bow is just crazy looking...sigh @ I'll never have it. At least until we get to level to 100 and I can just go one to five man where it drops.

Serious, who gives a fuck about tier 4+ sets nowdays?
I finished my tier 1 set on my warrior, got tier2 complete on my priest, and i am kinda burned out with raiding...ive had enouth of it.
All the countless wipes, endless moaning, and hours over hours trying new strats on nearly impossible bosses.
What for?
A few epics that gonna be worth *nothing* in the next expansion ?
Id rather use my spare time to do 5 man instances, and gank the living hell out of the alliance nowdays^^

What is this bizarre love/hate thing with priests? Mechanically, Blizzard fuck them, but that staff and T6.... I mean jesus, they're the best looking class in the game.

I completely agree with you. I am burned out on raids these days. I am looking forward to the new 5-man areas, crafting another epic or two, and ripping some alliance brains out of their skulls.

So, are there different versions of the weapons like there are with the armor sets, or am I SOL because I'm Elemental and can't dual-wield? Or maybe I can just pick up the mage dagger. Yea, I'm sure none of the mages will mind that...

just noticed shaman get fist weapons (plural)
I thought duel wield was a deep enhancement talent (sorry, working from memory here, my shaman is my lowest character and has no pts in enhance at the moment)
does this mean only enhancement shamans can use them to full effect? or that enhancement shamans have to work twice as hard / get twice as lucky dropwise to get their weapons?
