Just a clarification: these are not pre-order items, per say. The Japanese get these items just for buying the boxed retail version. They are also able to download the client for free and then pay low monthly fees in cybercafes, etc. but these players don't get the unique items.

I figured one of the Monk item specs would be "+20% glittering dust pick-up".

Alright... Now that's just not fair if that's true...

We actually had to WORK for our max, un-unique items and you could only get the pre-order items... if you PRE-ORDERED... and they still sucked.

Are we absolutely sure that they get them just by buying the game, that they are customized, and that they get all 7?

How do you figure? Now that I look closer, it only looks like 3 of them are customized. Although I could be mistaken (I don't understand Japanese

)

Every weapon is customized, and weapons are the only thing that are customizable. Look at the Pre-Order items, same there, only the weapon are customized.

Don't cheer though, you can't trade the un-customized ones either, at least, you can't trade the Pre-Order un-customized items, probably won't be different with these.

I want that Hammer sooooo bad =(

It makes my Ram Hammer look like a play toy.

BigTru · Dec 30, 2005, 02:51 AM // 02:51

Hammers never get any cool, flashy weapons like Chaos Axes, Dwarven Axes, Serpent Axes, Fiery/Icey Dragon Swords, Crystaline Swords, and Fellblades (Not to mention the cool shields). Closest thing Hammer has is the Rightous Maul, and that's not too hot =/

They finally add a cool looking one, but only for Japan.

I think these are the same as the Korean Coke items...

Did you look at the pictures of the Japanese items and the Korean items? Do they really look the same to you? (Except the bow of course)

Maxiemonster · Dec 30, 2005, 04:48 AM // 04:48

Give Japan a break. I agree, these are really nice, but what advantage can they get from it. Korean, Europen and American districts all had very much time to get great weapons. I think they diserve this in Japan, it's just one item.

Y.T. · Dec 30, 2005, 05:02 AM // 05:02

Ok, lets see, what ones would I kill for... Oh who am I kidding, I would kill for any of those... WHY MUST WE ALLWAYS BE SHAFTED!!!....

So, anyone else have the sudden urge to write Anet a nasty letter?

xBakox · Dec 30, 2005, 06:04 AM // 06:04

Id also like to point out that we got Halloween hats and what ever the Xmas gifts will be as well as Icy Dragon Swords. Im sure by the time they get the game they wont be able to get them. At least one thing to rub in thier faces

.

snapp · Dec 30, 2005, 06:14 AM // 06:14

Actually I don't think icy dragons will be removed, and that means by the time Japan can get them,at the rate of current farming they will cost what fiery dragons cost now. So Everyone on the servers when IDS were released that were paying 30K for them will be shafted again.

I will trade my halloween crown, whatever Xmas gimmick and all my halloween crap for that shield

But those were seasonal events, which means they will probably return annually. (There are even speculations the IDS drops will continue after Wintersday.)
