There was a rumor that the next legendary weapon would be for rogue. That rumor just got confirmed by GC in an interview.

So basically, in WoW history, rogues got:
1) Thunderfury.
2) Twin Glaives.
3) And now, a set of two daggers.

Amazing balance once again... not to mention it's daggers, meaning it's useless for other dual wielding classes except maybe enhancement shaman, but if the offhand speed is set for rogues, it will be crap for shaman.

Where's the feral druid legendary by the way?

They specifically said it's only for Rogues, like, class requirement. Not its designed for rogues in the form of daggers, but no one else can do the quest.

The thing that concerned me more, was "Tier 13 will not be available at all from valor points." They went the opposite direction of what people have been asking for. Holy christ, even I am starting to think the game is going down the crapper.

So do I, and I'm definitely not the one to "cry wolf" (no idea if that expression exists in English) for no reason.
They do bullcrap move after bullcrap move lately.

What you say make it even worse - so really rogue only. Stupidly retarded when some class/spec combinations never got a legendary. The setting was actually a good one to give ferals/enhancement a main hand legendary to be used with an offhand for the druid and a second weapon for the shaman. I mean, the lore around Deathwing and Firelands is full of shaman (Thrall) and druids (Staghelm etc...)!
But no, let's cater to the same class again.

Idiots.

PS: before some troll says I'm biased, neither my shaman nor my druid raids, and therefore they have no chance of getting that potential legendary. I was just preaching for fairness.

Aye, this is utter stupidity too.

My 10man doesn't even have a Rogue, so we get to skip an entire part of next tier. Fantastic idea!

If its token drops for all 5 pieces next tier, then that's proof that Blizzard despises 10mans.

Yes, you used it correctly in English.

Ya, I'm pretty surprised it's a rogue legendary also.

As General Grievous said...

Hopefully a release date for any of GW2 or SWTOR will come soon.
By the time the first rogue gets his first dagger, half the other players may be wielding a Lightsaber (if ONLY that was true...).

Sounds like they are trying to force the use of Rogues in raids as they seem to be desired about as much as Ret Pallys in them.

With this addition Raid guilds will bring a token Rogue along in order to get that legendary on their achievement list if for nothing else.

Abandoned my 85 Rogue months ago with the mindset of "if you can't beat them, join them" and rolled myself a Lock. Not even a new Legendary set of daggers could cause me to go back now and I am willing to bet other former Rogues feel the same.
