There is only one objective truth about every single armor set we've ever made -- some people love, and some people hate, each of 'em. The art is completely subjective and your tastes reflect your viewpoint.

That said, our design philosophy for epic sets is not changing at all with the introduction of Transmogrification. We're still going to keep designing what we think is fitting and awesome for each class and tier. We want people to want to wear all of the major armor sets we release. In the future you'll just have the option of deciding what set fits you best aesthetically and adventuring to obtain it, without worrying about the stats. :)

Though this is absolutely correct, even you guys have to admit some of those previous sets were just awful. There's no shame in admitting it......you know you want to.

I'll admit there are some set looks I don't like. But that's as far as I'll reasonably go. =)
