Yayyyy I get a gemset back

...

*ponders as to how many Yorkie bars she could get with the gem money*

Vilaptca · Mar 26, 2007, 06:01 PM // 18:01

Thank you, so much. I was never going to bother with Razah unless I earned the gemstones, and that certainly hasn't been working...

Zorglubb · Mar 26, 2007, 06:03 PM // 18:03

Nice! Time to get Razah, like many other heroes, I'm not sure it'll ever see more use beyond as a weapon and rune storage slot, but hey, gotta catch them all!

Bryant Again · Mar 26, 2007, 06:04 PM // 18:04

ANET SCORES A CRIT ON AWESOME.

Seriously, this is *very* cool, Gaile, the best news we've heard since Hard mode!

do you ever read the forums?, there have been over a thousand posts of whining pve people complaining about this.

I dont care about this, all I want is info on the ATs.

MirageMaster · Mar 26, 2007, 06:30 PM // 18:30

Greate news! ^_^ I am pleased! Thank you Devs!

Omega X · Mar 26, 2007, 06:37 PM // 18:37

I hate when things are always, "in a couple of weeks".

I'll cheer when its in.

countesscorpula · Mar 26, 2007, 06:38 PM // 18:38

Thanks. My primary is a hexing necromancer, who hasn't found much luck in DoA, so perhaps i might make a second run at razah now.

Y.T. · Mar 26, 2007, 07:04 PM // 19:04

yay, now i dont have to farm to get 8 gemsets!!! thanks anet, thats rly nice of u

jon0592 · Mar 26, 2007, 07:10 PM // 19:10

Interesting, now I'll consider getting him.

matt_heys · Mar 26, 2007, 07:13 PM // 19:13

I'm a little dissapointed that my acomplishments will be diminished, although I seem to be in the minority.

I worked hard to get my Hero in one of the toughest parts of the game, now I find out that anyone can get him without the same effort.

I don't want to deny people the chance of getting him and I have always thought it was a crazy requirement to "give up" 4 Gem Stones for a hero.

To sweeten the deal it would be nice if the people who already have Razah maybe got a unique armor for him, to show that they worked hard(er) to get him.

Also if I had sold the Gems when I had them they were worth double what they are now.

Anyway enough moaning, happy hunting peeps the quest to get him was quite cool.

Raaaaa · Mar 26, 2007, 07:19 PM // 19:19

Oooh. I actually quite liked the difficulty of getting razah, it did make it a prestige thing. But on the plus side it means I can now save up money for other useful things like skills, keys and last 15k armour set.

But it'll be a bit of a shame to see so many razahs floating about

King Kong · Mar 26, 2007, 07:24 PM // 19:24

This is great news! Thanks ANET

Maybe this will come with the hard mode, so we get loads at once

Zapper901 · Mar 26, 2007, 07:35 PM // 19:35

Awesome! Now I can finally get Razah for all my characters.

Instant gratification (although expected by so many of the younger generation) should not become the norm for everything. Facing a difficult challenge is a good experience that makes you grow (in this case, hopefully makes you grow into a better player to be able to face the challenge).

On the other hand, I realize that if my main char was not an ele (or one of the other "acceptable" classes), it would prob be impossible to get in a PUG in DOA and get all the gems. Too many people are too close minded to take anything but the std builds that are posted on wiki. In a positive light, some people who are frustrated by the situation I just described will now have a chance to get Razah on their fav character.

Edit to include other classes than ele that are desired in DOA PUGs.

I totally agree with the 1st part to this, earning something makes a person grow and yet ANet in their infinite wisdom have decided its a game for spoilt brats so why not give them it on a silver platter, I'm sorry Gaile but I really think ANet are maybe just handfeeding the players that QQ about everything, maybe if I QQ that I dont have enough ecto's you'll make a free UW & FoW month as opposed to a weekend?

teenchi · Mar 26, 2007, 07:56 PM // 19:56

Yay! Finally. I have attempted to get Razah with my necro a couple of times and find it way too hard. Thanks A-net!

notskorn · Mar 26, 2007, 08:03 PM // 20:03

Live in a couple weeks? Why not right now?

SpeedyKQ · Mar 26, 2007, 08:10 PM // 20:10

I suppose this is better than nothing, but IMO the problem wasn't that Razah cost 4 gems, the problem was that you get him after the game is over and there is nothing left to do with him!

Havoc of PhoeniX · Mar 26, 2007, 08:20 PM // 20:20

Great news, but i don't see why it should take a couple of weeks :/
