Neat skins, but the bow should've been recurve or flat imo, and the skins won't save the mods in my eyes.

I love Hourglass Staff, I see people using it, but... not many people realize we can actually "dye them"!

With mix color dye on Hourglass staff, it looks very very nice! (Silver+blue, Silver+purple, Red+black etc.) I dye mine and it look so much better then before.

The Bow too! I hate the original color, dye make it looks nicer.

And Anet just change the setting, we are able to add mods on, so it's good! (We can't take it out once u add them though)

Can you add mods like "of Fortitude" etc to the sword?

And if I preordered the game from Gamestop how do I get the bonus items?

yes u can! and your heros can use the weapons as well, but do not benefit from the +20% dmg bonus from customization

Exclussive weapons... yeah right.. only because of skins..
Blade stats.. oh god.. :-/

Yesterday I bought the preorder from the store and created the weapons, I think that the skins are among the best ever seen in all 3 campaigns so far.
The level of detail and the animations show a much more updated graphic design compared to old ones.

I hope that we can get something comparable from drops in EOTN areas.

Anyway, I ask A.net to make those preorder items inscribable.
I don't see any imbalance in game, as they're customized and usable only on you and your heroes.
It' won't affect the so called "economy", because you would get only the skin, but still would need to buy inscriptions and upgrades.

That shouldn't be so difficult, I can imagine that A.net used some special codification for those items, something like tyrian collectors weapons, which are not dyable for instance and of course not inscribable.

Anyway in NF there are inscribable collectors weapons, like scythes in Kourna and Vabbi, so they could use that kind of coding for instance.

In the past they changed IDS from blue to gold to make it exempt from loot scale, I think they could do something like that also for the preorder items.

Maybe I'm wrong, but I can't imagine any reason that prevented A.net to give us fully customizable preorder items.
If someone knows, I'd like to be explained ...

Very nice weapons, don't really like the stats. The bow is rubbish really, I mean couldn't they not make a Longbow for at least ONCE!

vergerefosh · Aug 21, 2007, 11:24 AM // 11:24

Staff stats are quite nice, and the swords are much better than what all my chars are using atm. Only warrior weapon missing now is an axe.

Not that fond of the bow though. Don't like using any - weapons, unless it's reducing damage I'm taking

Etta · Aug 21, 2007, 11:39 AM // 11:39

Yeah the weapon's skins are very nice, rubbish stats apart from the staff which is good for ele heroes. And btw you can mod most of the bonus weapons now, if the weapon is missing a handle or grip, like that nevermore bow (goty) or Glacial Blade (gwen), you can put the mod on it.

You can't get them back tho! SO think twice before putting a max mod on them.

Matfei · Aug 21, 2007, 12:15 PM // 12:15

Ach. So sad. I wont be able to purchase this before EotN comes out, meaning I'll miss out as it is PRE-Order, yes?

Pity. I like the sword.

Wonder if, once GWEN is out, they'll work on fixing the weird wind effect that flies around the screen when the staff is being used... shouldn't be hard at all really (shouldn't even be there if it was properly tested), but they seem to be ignoring it.
