Curse

Let's all make Guru PuG signups for when the build goes live, yeah?

@ the topic of dervish runes spiking up after update: lol. It's like suddenly one more Derv hero makes everyone go "OMG TRIPLE DERV HAX, MUST HAV" when actually no truly great builds for Tri-Derv heroes has been made yet, and even then to be on par with Tri-Necro or Dual Para.

and btw, my guess is update goes live in next 30 to 50 minutes.

I think the most Mox will be used is going to be the first day, just to see what the Elite Forms look like for him. After that, he's stuck back in the closet.

persuadu · Sep 04, 2008, 11:37 PM // 23:37

Bad Guess.

Who here will be suprised if it comes this weekend or next week? Maybe we should start a betting pool on how late this update will hit?

I want the 2100hrs EST box for today and the 1200hrs EST box for tomorrow.

Sniper22 · Sep 04, 2008, 11:54 PM // 23:54

Probably by tomorrow or the weekend at the lastest, guess this got delayed for some reason?

Lishy · Sep 04, 2008, 11:56 PM // 23:56

I just had a thought.
Could it be possible mox's forms will have new abilities?

It can't take this long to put a simple hero into the game.

The update will probably come with some random skill nerf/buff/bugfix and a complaint from ANet that they had a heated debate over whether to fix it or not.

But it's not a simple hero addition!

You have a multicampaign quest in addition, 5 seperate elite forms to add in with it, plus whatever elite armors it'll have.

If it was something like "Oh here is another human hero that you get just by logging in!", I'd agree with you. But based on the information we have, it'll be a beast.

No this would be incredibly bad idea, as the whole community would probably start to spazz out.

Regardless DoA was released by this time when it came out. Compared to that, this is a simple hero addition and Anet just can't do it.

You're comparing the work of a full team compared to just a few people-ANet said that they currently have 7 people working on GW1 right now-I don't know the numbers of who is working on this quest alone, but I understand it's a beast and far from "simple".

Don't get me wrong-I'm wondering myself where the update is and I'm hoping Regina might get on and give us an update. But at the same time I understand the manpower limitations and I'm willing to wait a bit cause I know it'll be worth it.

With DoA they probably had a lot more people working on it, now its just 2.

Then again i remember hard mode being released at 4 am GMT +1, that was really really terrible because i was so damn excited and wanted to know everthing about it.

It will not have new armors and from what Regina (SP on her name :D) has said it won't have a quest either.

Stuff about quest to obtain MOX and hero armors.

Probably something like "we've reduced the area Justiciar Thommis and his group will deviate from their normal patrol." lulz when that happens.

Apok Omen · Sep 05, 2008, 12:36 AM // 00:36

Really, unless the golem can perform other tasks besides "attack this, don't use this skill, and go here" I won't use it. Probably just get it, use the forms in GtoB, and go back to UW SC or VS farm.

Now, if they made a Mursaat Elite Area in that second fire isle (the one in the top left hand corner of the tyrian map) then I would go there many times.

Hint, hint, hint...

Lest121 · Sep 05, 2008, 12:39 AM // 00:39

8:40pm est, if it does happen it will be soon hopefully.

Zinger314 · Sep 05, 2008, 12:40 AM // 00:40

Ah, memories. Memories of waiting until wee hours for underwhelming updates.

Regina said this I think you should read it

People have been speculating that there are quests to obtain Mox for the past few weeks. We never confirmed the existence of a quest as a pre-requisite to get Mox.
