Zomg this is so great :O

Apart from the warrior weapons the rest don't see too impressive :|

I mean unbounded 10/10 casting and recharge is great, but then again the weapons themselves already tie you to an attribute in their reqs, and if you are gonna be tied already might as well just get the current greens with 20/20s.

I don't quite see how these will fit in really :???:

Meh more mediocre weapons with rare skins, woohoo. The only good thing is the shield and maybe one of the bows, the rest... well meh. I much prefer to make a drok's sword and mod it up than use the new "shadow blade" :P

Over all good update, I am fascinating over the pretty scenery of the load screen.

Was the guild wars economy EVER balanced? Jeez the games economy changes so rapidly its not like the economy hasnt been "ruined" before. These new weapons may cause a small bump in the selling prices of greens but it will drop again seeing as these are really nothing special. A few are worth picking up but others are just trash. To everyone thats complaining about "rare" skin items and everyone looking the same, tell me when they released the razor stone how many people did you see walking around with sephis axes :P? In the end its your choice what to equip your character with I believe its fair that everyone if they play smart enough can get what they want in this game.

My own experience with the tombs entrance to the UW is that small groups unless you play smart will get owned. Bring hex removals and prepare for damage spikes. Also watch out for worms they're a beootch

No greens that run but ectos dropped at least. :]

Zephro · Jan 20, 2006, 03:49 AM // 03:49

Wah wah wah new greens with sought after skins drop so the economy will crash wah wah wah.
Stop whining, people. It hasn't happened after SF, and it won't happen now.

This would really help with a mesmer caster (E-drain or Interruption, most commonly). Often, they are tied in all of their primary attributes at once. So, you go to use, say, Drain Enchantments and you're using a 20/20 dommination staff: You don't get the recharge bonus.

Say you use Elemental Attunement. Using a 10/10 unbound staff is the only way to get that skill recharged faster.

By the way, you don't really need to attack as much as recharge, anyway. Besides, just becuase you are using one attribute doesn't mean you wouln't have another at the same time.

Even so that is still alot of limitation, sure mesmers can use them effectively... how many mesmers do you see running around? Sure Elemental Attunment is used alot, but people prefer 20/20 fire or what not staves. These 10/10 are pretty useless to anything that doesn't try to rogue a multibranch build.

The ogre knife is just a funny tribute piece, it has no point.

Certainly it is harder. . .for now. The ToA underworld seems hard until you go down a few times, and then it seems to get easier. Addmitedly, from what I have seen these battles are no kids game, and you can get wiped easily with one bad pull, but I for one am all for new, stupidly hard areas.

New green weapons eh? Well, the shadow sword looks nice, but since I run a mesmer. . .and they give me an offhand, linked to fast casting (though I always have 9 or more) with no fast cast/recharge bonuses? Hmmmm. . .think I'll stick with my droknar's forge focus. True, the domination staff looks like it has decent stats, but I prefer armor to hp, and my current staff is a mix of the collectors and this (10% faster cast all skills, 20% recharge domination skills) Well, I can always sell em I suppose

Juicey Shake · Jan 20, 2006, 05:17 AM // 05:17

-sigh-

Spent ~2 hours, got to the darknesses... WOO! Kole's gauntlet...

Damn you victo and your dumb ass not dropping me your blade /fistshake.
