Patch 2.4 Notes
#61
I really don't see what all the badge whining is about. Did the world end when they released "tier behind" badge gear before?

Also, even though T6 is more complete then T5 from the standpoint of covering all specs, it still has some holes that could be filled. Fist weapons, shadow priest weapons, and feral weapons are the ones that leap to mind (don't mention the pillar of ferocity please).

Plus, a full set of T5 is would be about 800ish badges (guessing that a 2h T5 would be 100 badges... probably on the low side). T6 could be even more. That's a hell of a lot of badges. If you figure 5 badges/hr (probably about right - Kara is faster, but you can't do that everynight. Also, if you are really grinding hard on badges, you are forced to do less popular heroics after you are locked out of the good ones or the ones with daily quests, meaning it takes longer to find a group) and 60 badges on average for a piece of gear, you get .083 epics per person per hour. My guild are not world beaters, but we can form up and clear Hyjal in less then 4hr - thats .15 epics per person per hour. Raiding is a hell of a lot faster of a way to gear up then just counting on badges.

All the elitists will change their tune very quickly if it turns out that T5 or T6 bosses drop the Essence of the Immortals (used to unlock bosses 4-6). "Here, semicasual guild member, let me bring my warglaves to Shattered Halls so you can finish on time. You are going to use that badge to buy gear to take Kael down with, right?"
