tier 6 (wow)
Tier 6 refers to the set of class equipment that is acquired from the bosses of Hyjal Summit, Black Temple and Sunwell Plateau. These sets are meant as a follow-up to the Tier 5 equipment found in Serpentshrine Cavern and Tempest Keep. In Patch 2.4, these sets that originally consisted of 5 pieces were extended to 8-piece sets by drops found in Sunwell Plateau; however, the set bonuses are still acquired at the 2- and 4-piece levels.
Tier 6 is considered the equivalent in PvE as Season 3 is to PvP, as it started to become available at about the same time.
Tier 6 also refers to guilds working on the bosses in the aforementioned raid instances.
