Updated with Mythic Weapon details.
Not sure if i hate this, or love it.
Excellent, all good updates! All items we have been requesting for a long time!
I like the exclusive vanity for 10m (or really 11.5m as I assume you cannot get the third achievement without the first two), this works as a good gold sink.
However, without any achievement points, the vanity set better look amazing to get people to spend their gold. So yes, some kind of special effect is a must. Might I suggest some kind of smoke or flames, the way some sets in Pocket Legends looked. People always liked the smoke and flames of the demonic, glyph and dragon vanity sets. And make those effects not cancel out any effects that your other gear underneath has, but add to it. Another idea would be to have some sort of gold sparkle effect like the Fortified Sets in PL, except maybe a bit more noticeable. This would fit with the whole "gold" theme.
Lastly, one suggestion I'll make about the sorcerer vanity set.... When using a rifle, sorcerers are at a much different angle than when using a staff, and many of the vanity sets that have a cape in the back (or a long coat) look very odd when using a rifle as the coat gets stretched kind of funny. So when using a gun, I always avoid wearing a vanity set with a cape or long coat, and instead tend to go for vanity sets like the founders sets that stay close to your body. They look much better. So my suggestion is to make the sorcerer set like that, because I can't see spending 10m on a set that I can't use with half of the weapon types that are out there.

Perhaps you should concentrate on making the biggest flop in the game better than the gun. I'm honestly gobsmacked.
Selling kershal.
It's worth noting that the maul will still be more powerful than the new warrior weapon, as will the glaive. I know it's a different genre of weapon but the maul is now 10 levels old.... Kershal is 5.... Enough said.
Ps Ty for the other long awaited updates....
haha, i love true tanking weapons, but 4 dex on the stats of the bullwark must be a typo or a joke :)
I agree, this new gun will obviously have considerably higher damage than the Kershal. The proc looks way better than the kershal. This gun gives 20% of damage returned as mana, where my Kershal has a "chance" to give +10 mana regen for 8 seconds (80 mana added). Then there is the root proc compared to a Kershal's small chance on charged attack to slow by 30%.
Only benefit of the Kershal is it will give 156 more health, but I don't see that as enough of a difference to keep the Kershal as the best sorcerer weapon. Maybe for PvE it will be best because of it's AoE normal attack, but for PvP the gun will be the weapon of choice.
Only way to change that is to totally change the way the Kershal procs work. I suggest scrapping everything about the Kershal's proc except the +60 INT. Then add some kind of stun and/or armor reduction proc. The proc would be the same for both charged and non-charged. The advantage of charging would be that it aims towards the enemy like a fireball, and the charged one should produce slightly more damage (not less) like every other weapon in the game. The procs would be the same both charged and non-charged.
Anything less than that and we can expect the Kershal to be finished after one season. :(
I really do like the new mythic weapons, but just as the Arcane Maul was the best warrior weapon even after the mythic glaive/bonesaw were released, the kershal should continue to be the best sorcerer weapon even after these level 41 mythic weapons are released.
STS you should pay attention to this. It's important.......Quote:

New Gold Achievements and Vanity
For a while now, we have wanted to change up how the Gold Achievements are done. In their current incarnation, they provide incentive for players to trade very large sums of gold (10 to 100 Million) around to get the achievement. Unfortunately, such large sums of gold can bring out the worst in people as they might take off with it. :(
In a coming patch we will be removing the top three Gold Achievements (10 million, 50 million, 100 million). Characters with those achievements will retain the associated titles.
500k - 0 AP - Title Granted: "Gold Digger"
1 million gold - 0 AP - Title Granted: "Made of Money"
10 million gold - 0 AP - Title Granted: "Solid Gold" - Gold Vanity Set
Here is an early look at the Gold Vanity Set that will go along with the highest package.
Attachment 89402
There are still some particle effects to be added to the set (and of course the Sorcerer and Rogue versions to be made).
As you can see from the above, we have a lot of great stuff cooking for Arcane Legends. We really appreciate you spending some of your leisure time with Spacetime. I look forward to reading your feedback as well as bringing you more details about the coming events.
Will the people that ones had 10m get the vanity and achievement??
*come by the sorc arcane weapon, it's good...... Honest it is*
Pretty cool updates. Thank you Samhayne. Would the new mythic weapons be lootable drops during the event ?
aaaaaaand rogues are back on top in pvp... oh well, the rest of us adapted once, don't dismiss us just yet nasty one shotters...
I must say I'm a little disappointed that skill switching has been removed from all aspects of the game. Switching in pvp I can understand because it's players AGAINST other players, but in pve we are working together so nobody is at a disadvantage. Any chance of removing switching from the pvp aspect (because lets face it, that's where the switching drama came up) and leave it in the pve part? No? Ok then... I suppose pleasing the majority is more important.
Very good patch, lots of changes that will be extremely beneficial to the gameplay. One question though, when it says the current gold aps will be removed, are we to assume that aps will now be reduced back to 17,650 instead of 17,950? (providing there aren't new aps)
the new mythic rifle "Firing the rifle will energize the caster, returning 20% of the damage dealt to the player’s mana pool. This only affects normal and charged attacks, and not other spells cast while the rifle is equipped." Why do STS always give mana return even in kershal? Mages needs armor or heals process... that will be most useful our health point is as low as rogue in most cases.

If it energize the caster, give the caster mana return this mana return should have extra effect like protective current to shield us from harm during PVE and PVP
Terrific! Might just bring me back!
yes it s sad, i sold the ker shal from my mage alt already. dmg and bling are great, but proc and charged attack always felt crippled, compared to even the runic flare...Quote:

Can't wait for the rest of the changes. I know you said soon Sam, but in sts terms, soon could be months. Can you give us a better idea of when? Weeks, months, years??? :-P
Thanks again and looking forward to the changes.
Fyi luv the bow even though im sure i wont be lucky enough to get one.
I do agree with those above. Re: mage rifle, mages don't need mana, they need hp or armour buffs.
And really? Buffing wars with more hp AND a +20 buff...cmon! Maybe for pve purposes this will be great but in pvp.....get real.

Lets fix it, swap procs with mythic bow!Quote:
