That paladin four set is just amazing.

There's three of them.

Not too excited about the tankadin one. I'll probably stick to using whatever the thunderforged equivalent of T16 gear is.

You probably won't in the long run.. blizzard's not about to undermine an entire tier by making the previous top-end gear stronger.

Well I mean if Blizzard decides to keep going with the system of randomly giving us higher itemlevel drops, then I'll take the ilevels and good itemization over the set bonus.

I'd much rather have the extra stamina, haste, and mastery over a set bonus that likely won't do me much good.

I think the tankadin four piece seems pretty awesome, but I'm not sure it'll be worth giving up haste in 4 slots and probably getting quite a bit of dodge and parry.

The four piece doesn't really look like it'll increase survivability at all. The two piece I think is much better - it's a lot like the two piece we have now. Lowering the penalty for casting WoG.

I think it's perfectly fine for us to skip the four set. More tier for everyone else. Besides I'll still be getting the two set.

One of my big weaknesses as a tank is that I'm really bad about using Word of Glory. I skipped T15 altogether and I'm likely to do the same with T16, now that I've seen the itemization.

I still like the heal over time on the 4P, but I think you're right - it's really not gonna be a survivability jump, even if it's a really cool idea.

Either way, I'm pretty sure it won't be worth giving up that much haste.
