Some look rather spiffy.

Okay that blue/black dragon bow....NEED NAOW!

[Lisaara]

For once, the polearms dont look uglier than sin! HUZZAH!

[ma3lstrom]

The dragon bow Kasstra mentioned is pretty cool. And the one style of polearm with the dragon head on it looks nice. Not a fan of the majority of the weapons though. Good thing there's transmog!

Amusingly, no one will see polearms much anymore. Only feral druids are left to use them and they run around in animal form! Well, usually.

Monks use polearms too don't they?

Oh right, good call! Forgot about them. xD

Yeah, I've been snatching up certain polearms and staves off the AH for my various monk sets before they start getting really expensive. I especially like spear looking polearms myself, and thank God I have a toon with a 5 slot guild bank to stash all this monk stuff and crafting mats Anyways, l definitely love the fist weapons, polearms, bows, and some of the guns they've shown. How any of them will fit in with my sets is yet to be determined.

I look at that dragon staff, remember that we can't use melee weapons anymore, and sigh.

EDIT: Although the dragon bow is nice too.

From a purely cosmetic standpoint I'm actually glad we can't use melee weapons anymore. While I do think some of the current (and older) melee weapons look pretty awesome...and I've acquired quite a collection of them lol, I very much prefer seeing a bow or a gun strapped to my hunters back.

Personally I feel that the bows and guns are much harder to make striking than polearms and staffs. There are a few, especially that now-unavailable lion bow, and the crossbow shaped like a boat, but on the whole they seem to be far less distinguishable.

To me they seem about equal with the shiney wow factor.

Some of those 2H weapons are gorgeous! I love the purple dragon staff and that black spiky polearm (it would match Skorn so well!).

I'm definitely going to miss a few of my favourite staves and polearms, but in the long run I think I'm more relieved to not have to worry about them any longer. I much prefer seeing my bow on my back, and now I don't have to worry about that horrendous enchant glow that often destroyed a transmog look. As beautiful as some of these new weapons are, I cringe at the thought of them being covered by a blob of green that obscures all the pretty details.

Overall I'm feeling pretty pleased by the weapon decision. I could miss some aspects of it if I wanted to, but without dwelling on it I'm much more excited for the ranged being displayed.

I just love the fact that I'm no longer going to need to compete for what is essentially a stat stick and listen to Druids bitch about it in raid finder. They can argue with the monks now from here on out
