Reminds me an awful lot of some of the TBC gear or put another way, it looks like a clown exploded all over my gear. It's consistent with the art style of the game, but I just can't get into it.

Even though TBC is still my fave WoW expac, I kind of agree. I mean, yes, aliens and demons are apparently a colorful lot but the gameplay was what drew me in. Besides, colors aside, I don't think Blizz has really hit such a creative streak from a design standpoint since TBC. I hope they bring some of that zazz back.
I guess we will have to disagree here. They were just recolors.
Anyway, to Power Ranger for me. All it was missing was the Pink ranger to be complete.
This isn't debatable... They ARE reskins, there are pieces of the armor that is fundamentally different from the same 'set'.
This isn't like 'my opinion' vs. your 'opinion' these are facts.
A recolor would be JUST changing the color of the gear, like how WoW does for their sets of gear from normal / heroic etc.
A reSKIN would have new elements, new pieces, changes.
The 2nd is what you see when you look at the wildstar pictures.
Look at Engineer 1A then look at 1B. They are extremely different, yet the same 'set' The shoulders on B are plugs, the ones on A are pylon looking things. THEY ARE FUNDAMENTALLY DIFFERENT!

Thanks for understanding.
Oi, you take your power rangers way to seriously.
Think what you will, it still only took them a day or so for the variants. A day wasted in my opinion. That gear has to be the worst looking gear in MMO history.
I think it is funny people saying this is horrible looking or "kiddie". I find it looks just like the gear these devs are use to making, stylized "cartoony" wow gear. I also think it is fitting to the game the guys are trying to make. I like it, i guess

I don't think they look 'power ranger' ish. Also, while not upset, I could see why you might think I was passionate, if I was, it wasn't about the 'power ranger' gear as you so eloquently put it. It was about you not using the proper term for something, which, pardon me if I offended you by insisting that you use the proper term.
I understand you do not like how the gear looks, I don't like how all of it looks either, I've never really thought every set of every classes' gear in a game looked 'good'. Typically there are always a few that leave something to be desired.
There are several sets here I really think look pretty fantastic though. I'm sure many people will notice the variations little nuances and will be happy with them.
the medic green and blue one is pretty sick reminds me of tron, overall the gears look great, the engineer smiley face is godly lol
cannot wait
The smiley engineer set is amazing! I honestly must roll an engineer for that suit now... I'm not even much of a fan of pet classes, but the fact they can have more than one out at a time is pretty cool.

So you see 2 raid sets, each having 3 distinct variants, and you say 'man they must have rushed this'
What universe are you from?
If this has too much color for you to bear go play ESO. Won't have any issues like that in drab-city.
Yes.
All of the variants are just repaints of the same design. Probably took them a day to complete.
I don't think they were rushed, though; just poorly designed.
Unless you're really into Ben10.

At least we can re-color the gear.. there are some bad colors swatches in those pics
Since when is Tuesday a direction?
They are NOT recolors.
If you look, they are reskins, they all have distinct differences in each of them from variation 0-B
If you compare this to Wow's version, which IS JUST recolors, this took them more effort and more time and more care to make.
Which is what I was saying.
:-)

Meh, still looks better than ESO's body paint armor.
