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.

I'd be delighted for ret pally actually. I like having both Devotion and Resist Auras in Firelands and we don't have a holy pally, and only 1 gear Prot pally atm. /sigh
It's too bad most of hte fights seemed built for ranged.
And frankly I would LOVE to see a tank shield legendary. And not being able to get the T13 stuff from Valor? What are they smoking?

Since I play more of a casual style, the legendary weapon doesn't concern me overly much.
I do have to say I'm pretty disappointed in the choice to make T13 only available from raid drops. The guild I play with has been dying slowly since the release of Cata. We were only able to complete BWD/BoT/To4W after the nerfs, and have not killed more than trash in FL; a trend I don't see reversing with the next patch.

Just remove the retarded token requirements for T11 helm and shoulders and lots of people will stay happy.
It astounds me how blizzard is so purposefully trying to get as many people to un-subscribe as possible.

Why don't they just make legendaries every expansion that are suitable for all classes? It's not like balance is in ultimate jeopardy if this was the case. And who cares if 20% of the raiding population was running around with a legendary item? It wouldn't change the fact that it took a serious investment of time and energy by a guild/raiding group to get it, and that's why it's ultimately legendary, not because of rarity.

Well, the legendary caster staff already poses a very serious balance problem in PvP...
Mages with it are utterly overpowered (they were already OP before anyway, but now it's worse).
But then, it's Blizzard's fault for not making a different proc for PvE and PvP on those weapons.

Yea, but you know they can fix that. Balance is just an acceptable part of the daily process of maintaining MMOs. I just think they should be focused more on providing players wth enjoyable gameplay and rewards and less on what might cause them hassles.

They were that way until about halfway through WotLK.
