I'm honestly shocked that so many people seem to hate the Hunter tier set from 11.2, it's so good. We've had so many egregiously over-designed sets throughout basically all of WoW, it's nice to get something that's just... a nice normal ranger look, with simple armor and tunics.

IDK, there's understated and then there's "this leveling set snuck in behind the Warlock set". It's just kinda blah, and I'm not a fan of the big doodad on top of the hood like a car ornament.

I think the only thing is maybe making that breastplate have some 3d elements to it, but honestly- yeah, I don't see what people mean about it being bad. I kinda want to actually gear up a hunter so I can do some raids to get it!

i saw the mythic tier color set and instantly went "how do I get a majority of this for my infinite evoker" lol Alas no shirt but I can get those pants as a drop so I'm happy for that.

I love how simple a lot of these tier sets are. Like you can very easily take a couple pieces from these sets and mix them with others without clashing. The rogue set is also great for that. But they still look really clean as a full set too so it's not taking away from that.

I don't outwardly despise it, but I'm also a panda hunter and it kinda clashes with the vibe. Most hunter sets do. :x

I love it. I love simpler designs. It is easier to transmog pieces to make it my own, and to feel more like a D&D character rather than an anime god.

Portergauge @portergauge.bsky.social

I dislike the idea that Tier sets have to be ridiculously flashy and full of huge chunks of metal to be "worthy" of coming from high end content. Leveling gear... looks really good! I'd love to get more of that simple, practical vibe, but with class-specific aesthetics.

Nyra 🩷💦 @nyra-lock.bsky.social

I think the hunter set is one of the best tier sets we got all expac, and I am also getting really frustrated that people are like flashy = good. I'm worried with how this season's warlock set has been responded to, we're only gonna get monster-like tier sets and no Nerubar-like sets now 😭

Elloa @elloawendy.bsky.social

I 100% like the less flashy vibe, I am all in favour for that. Simplicity is a plus! Make the lines more clear, and allow some choosen element to shine, instead of having noise...

I'd like a lot of tier sets more if we could TURN OF ALL THE NEON GLOWS! The Manaforge Paladin plate? Really cool! Aaand the shoulders glow like the sun... -sigh-

Elloa @elloawendy.bsky.social

I agree. It was a great idea & had much potential. Unfortunaly -as I explained in my rating all sets videos- the shoulders are too large, and the hood design is ...bizarre It could have been such a nice set, for the reason you explain, but it's a bit of a miss. Can still be used as base for transmog

I like it! It's simple, but at least it doesn't have unnecessary crap bolted on, or look like an overthought gimmick - which hunter sets are prone to. It doesn't really stand out, but neither does it stand out in a bad way.

I don't even understand the whole mindset that we've gotten nothing but Elven ranger gear the past expacs... The few times we do, it's cool, but we really don't get Elven ranger gear as much as I've heard claimed honestly I'm painfully awaiting the complaints come Midnight

I feel the same way about so many of the Paladin tier sets. Why does there *always* have to be some sort of crazy ornamentation on the helmets or shoulders these days? Sometimes I just wanna protect my dome!

For me it's usually pretty rare that I see a Hunter set and say "I gotta get that" but this tier it was almost immediate. I love simple-looking sets, especially for hunters and warriors

The main critique im really hearing is that if you aren't a 'conventionally attractive race' it just isnt a tmog for you. Buuut I do agree with your take as well, its nice to just have a ranger esthetic mog

Azmira @azmira.bsky.social

I'm actually a fan of the Hunter tier set, probably against the grain on this one I like how simple it looks, it's literally just a more general version of the same kind of ranger outfit Alleria wears, though with a bit more protection and it works so well It's also surprisingly versatile for mogs

Hallow's Eve Bone Faerie @beastifairy.bsky.social

It took me a bit, but. It's Alleria's outfit. That she's been wearing all expansion. The PvP set is the color of her Legion outfit. Several of the sets from this tier are references to other things, and they're all really good.

My beef with it is more that it fits with the elven/ not bulky race sort. For an elf, dwarf, Goblin and a few others, it’s pretty simple if pretty. For a male Orc like my Hunter, it’s kind of awkward.
