The biggest change is probably that all the "old" tier 8 sets have been upgraded with high-resolution textures. Here are the changes for each class since the last time I posted these sets: <ul style="margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0;"><li><img src="http://static.mmo-champion.com/mmoc/images/icons/ideathknights.gif" alt="" border="0" /> Death Knight - Higher resolution textures.</li><li><img src="http://static.mmo-champion.com/mmoc/images/icons/idruids.gif" alt="" border="0" /> Druid - All races added, robe version of the set added.</li><li><img src="http://static.mmo-champion.com/mmoc/images/icons/ihunters.gif" alt="" border="0" /> Hunter - Higher resolution textures.</li><li><img src="http://static.mmo-champion.com/mmoc/images/icons/images.gif" alt="" border="0" /> Mage - Higher resolution textures, and finally decided that the pants version of the set might be the final version for players. As of today there isn't any texture for Tier 8 Mage robe in the game files.</li><li><img src="http://static.mmo-champion.com/mmoc/images/icons/ipaladins.gif" alt="" border="0" /> Paladin - All races added, robe version of the set added.</li><li><img src="http://static.mmo-champion.com/mmoc/images/icons/ipriests.gif" alt="" border="0" /> Priest - Higher resolution textures.</li><li><img src="http://static.mmo-champion.com/mmoc/images/icons/irogues.gif" alt="" border="0" /> Rogue - Higher resolution textures.
