Yea GW:EN will have the inscription items so the stuff will mostly be cheap and thats fine ^^.

Destroying somthings value because some people want it for little effort is not fine ¬¬.

Hmm, guess you are right about those yeah...
But I was able to get my weapons pretty cheaply, Gothic Sword and a Guardian of the Hunt shield for nowhere near 100k.

All we need now is an inscriptions trader.

Aw... there is a problem for the trader. It has been suggested several times, but unlike runes, some upgrades have much variable values. For example, the n%dmg^50%HP can have values between 10 and 15%.

Maybe upgrades could have rarity like runes (blue, purple, gold) and have fixed values... but that woul be a great change... I don't expect such a thing... but could happen...

I think ANet should leave Tyrian and Canthan items uninscribable when they drop, but they should give Weaponsmiths the ability to make items inscribable if the owner so chooses (it should be a one-way switch only...no going back to uninscribable).

That way, the collectors are satisfied that they can still find, buy, or sell perfect non-inscription items, and everyone else can use inscribables of whatever skin they desire...

Oofus · Aug 06, 2007, 10:07 PM // 22:07

1st of all, that's absurd. It defeats the whole concept of having non-inscribable items if they can be "made" to become inscribable.

2nd of all, and I'm getting realy tired of saying this, THIS THREAD IS ABOUT GW:EN, NOT PROPHECIES, FACTIONS, NIGHTFALL, CHANGING EXISTING ITEMS, OR ANYTHING ELSE.....JUST THE FACTS ABOUT GW:EN!

all items should have inscriptions... seeing how GW is a game about player skill instead of item economy, I really don't see the problem.

Fergalicious92 · Aug 07, 2007, 03:49 AM // 03:49

I wouldn't see why the new weapons WOULDN'T be inscribable... I mean they are new skins and the inscription system that they have is pretty solid imo. Hopefully they keep it.

Seeing how GW is a game that has something for everyone (as promised by anet), I don't see why we can't have something for both inscription and non-inscription lover.

Regarding skills, you can take down someone wielding a 15^50 weapon with a 13^50 any day.

And if you don't care about economy, just unlock perfect pvp items/mods with balthazar and reward points. Or if you're into pve, there's weapon crafters that can craft perfect weapons for you.

Sorry but it's just the fact that skills has nothing to do with skins, economy does.

Items only obtainable in GW:EN will be allowed in the HoM.This is a fact from the man in this video toward. But still no confermantion on weather they will be inscribable or not.

Hmm there already is something for every... FoW armor and those Margonite looking items... I doubt a casual player will get those very fast :P

The only thing they have to do is make rare skins a lot more rare than they currently are...

MithranArkanere · Aug 08, 2007, 11:49 PM // 23:49

As long as common skins become more usable and rare skins stay rare, it sould be fine.

Echovald Shield or Gothic Defenders do not drop as much as Aegis or Defenders in Echovald forest.

But you an already get inscribed Aegis and Defenders in Nightfall.

And you don't see an Iridescent Aegis everyday.

Rare skins will stay rare, and commons skins will turn actually common.
