Tier Gear for Everyone: The BEST part of 3.2

If you haven't taken a gander at the lastest patch notes for 3.2, then you're missing out on quite possibly the greatest thing that blizz has ever done; made it easier to get tier gear.

With the patch they are introducing Emblems of Triumph (Tier-9), and are doing away with heroism and valor. You read that right. Heroics/Naxx/OS etc. will now reward Emblem of Conquest for 10/25 content, rather than splitting between hero for 10-man, and valor for 25-man.

What does this mean to you? Now your hard work will actually be meaningful. No more grinding weeks on end to hope for a piece of Tier to drop, and then praying for a decent roll. Emblems of Conquest will be available for all current 5/10/25 content, with T8 gear being purchasable from the vendor. Not that this is a drastic change from the status quo--but no longer will you be required to grind out Ulduar for upgraded gear. This essentially levels the playing field for raiders in smaller guilds to advance more quickly. /ftw

The two pieces of T8 cost roughly 116 Emblems of Conquest, so at about 4 emblems per heroic, thats only 30 dungeons to 2 peieces of T8...you can knock that out in a week!
