Tier 4 Gear tidbits

[Jester]

This is good news... but how much do you want to bet there are just two priest sets:

1. Healing set
2. Shadow damage set

leaving us poor healer-specs out in the cold for damage gear again.

I'm really wondering about how many sets each class gets.

I mean, for Rogues (say), there's pretty much one standard set of stuff they need. Sure, you could itemize it out a little, but you'd still end up with 3 sets that are really just variations on a theme.

For warriors, there's at least 2 sets needed, but three trees. It makes little to no sense to duplicate the PvP set for the PvP tree (arms), but you'd have to make some wacky off-tank set otherwise.

For druids, they'd actually need 4 sets, since an optimal Cat set would be quite different from an optimal Bear set, and Oomkin and Healer specs clearly need their own set.

But it seems kind of unfair (and an endless source of forum drama) to give different classes more or less options.
