Drysc comments on new armor sets prior to WotLK, 2.4, Season 4

[Eldorian]

Blizzard CM Drysc has commented about a few questions asked about new armor sets being introduced into the game before the release of the upcoming expansion, Wrath of the Lich King. He was quick to answer question with some very simple yes/no answers.

• Will Tier 7 Model Sets be released before WotLK? Yes (er, tier 6.5 or whatever you kids want to call it).
• ...And if so will there be a Season 4 counter-part? Yes.
• ...And if there is a Season 4 couter-part, will Season 2 be purchaseable with honor? Yes.
• ...And Season 3 require no rating? No (it will).
• ...Or will they just have Season 4 with no new armor and weapons? No.

So there you have it, a lot of questions answered (most that have been answered before) but all in one thread!

Also, Season 4 will not start with the release of 2.4, no date for 2.4 and Season 4 gear will require ratings as was introduced in Season 3:
