Tirion went missing through The Burning Crusade, doing who knows what. I like to think he was off on a two year long training montage, less like Rocky and more like Dragonball Z, because holy cow he was gone a long time. It paid off though, because when we first see him in Wrath of the Lich King he’s rocking out in full Tier 6. I’m almost positive they designed Paladin Tier 6 specifically for this purpose, because could you really see the guy in some other Paladin tier gear? Sure, there’s Judgement, but as awesome as it is it’s kind of old hat by now. I even like Crystalforge and I would burst into gigglefits if I saw Tirion in that.
I won’t detail Tirion’s entire first appearance in Wrath, because it’s way too awesome. Giving away the end result won’t ruin the entire scene, so I don’t feel too bad doing that. The scene itself is just way too epic to ruin. This much, I will say: Tirion Fordring with the Ashbringer makes me squeal like a little girl at a Jonas Brothers concert.
Eitrigg has apparently not forgotten what Tirion did for him, because he’s up in Northrend helping Tirion’s cause, too.
