Is it Slayer? I'm thinking Hammerer (Pic inside)

[Gizbit]

Well up until today I was going along with the general populous in my thought that the new class would be Slayer... that is until today.

While I am reading threads on people guessing what Slayer will be like, what kind of armor they will wear, etc... there isn't much hard evidence out there to go off of.

Well today I was in the sewers in Altdorf with my guild, and something strange drops...
Hammerer boots.

It is my understanding that the loot table in this instance was redone not too long ago to make the items more in line with the "difficulty" of the instances (at least from what I have heard from other people).
If so, why is there an item in here for a class thats not in the game, and supposedly (at least to the general public) not going to be released?

I have yet to see an item for Slayer, like I said, people aren't even sure of what armor class they will be, yet here is an item for the other possible Dwarven class already in game.

If this has been brought up before, please forgive me.

Hammerer items have been in the game since launch. There have been many previous accounts of Hammerer items dropping before.

This does not mean that the class is Hammerer, but that the items were never removed, or were overlooked.

Seriously, dude...if you can't figure out from the hair clippers and orange hair dye sent to that one WAR blog site along with the "Get to da Choppa" segment of Predator sent to The Greenskin fan site (Mythic said ONE of the two previous careers was getting the axe and one would be coming back), then no one on the boards here can help you. The time for wondering what careers are coming is over. Now we need to hope they make them good and balanced.

If i see one more Blood Priest belt..

Shoulda done some digging. Items for the missing careers have been dropping since launch, just residual data from Beta. The Dwarf MDPS is the Slayer.

Long story short, this stuff has been dropping since launch. Look at the data files for this game though for the classes and you can see Slayer abilities, while the Hammerer is now completely gone from their lists...

This item has been there for a while. I assume they forgot to remove it when they were still planning to use Hammerer. But as said above, this Orange dye and hair cut system is pretty obvious.
