All of the latest Mists of Pandaria newsPaladin tier 13 armor set revealed

Check out the full preview, along with the requisite transmogrification retrospective, over at Blizzard's community site.Design requested a set to 'key off the Guardian of Ancient Kings summon,' and I thought the concept of 'feathered' plate mail, rendered in silver and gold, would create an aggressive, yet sweeping and powerful silhouette. The previous paladin raid set had a good deal of cloth, but we wanted this set to be entirely platemail.
The key to a strong paladin tier is hitting a balance between martial prowess and elegant grace -- tapping into that classic Arthurian knight archetype.
Brace yourselves for what could be some of most exciting updates to the game recently with patch 4.3. Look at what's ahead: new item storage options, cross-realm raiding, cosmetic armor skinning and your chance to battle the mighty Deathwing -- from astride his back! Filed under: Paladin

No! No I didn't! I never get that thing you sent me! I never gotten that thing you sent me and I'm beginning to wonder if you ever sent me anything! While I'm at it, if I HAD gotten that thing you sent me, EVER, I doubt I'd be interested in what it said.

Paladin t13?
Had you not heard?
It was my understanding that everyone had heard.

No puns are needed. The REAL t13 will look exactly like the T2 Judgement Set - because that is what EVERY paladin will be xmogging to once they get the above modeled pieces.

@na.alnaji
The tier set for tauren paladins was going to be called buffalo wild wings until blizzard realized they would be sued

"Have we ever said that this set is for the birds?"
"Yes, and we'll keep saying it till it gets a laugh!"
"DOHOHOHOHO!"

Looks cool, but (Minus the head) it's a slight mix between T11 heroic and Season 9 (i365) sets. I'll transmog this one. I mean really that's why they're giving it to us right? For gear sets we don't "agree" with.

Birdman: They call me "Birdman".
Lister: Oh aye? Why's that?
Rimmer: Because he really likes instant custard. Why do you THINK!?

Am I the only one that sees a face in that armor. This the mouth and handlebar mustache in the belt, the triangle nose, and the two swirls for eyes?
Rathshai Sep 22nd 2011 7:06PM
Huh...that's odd. I thought that would be big news. Well, there seems to be an absence of a certain...orthenological set piece...A headline regarding awareness of a certain avian armour set...
Oh, have you not heard?
'A well 'a BIRD BIRD BIRD, B-BIRD'S THE WORD!
