+ The Rusk Dynamo Underslung Carbine applies a repulse effect to push the target away

Is this correct? Force gun was hitting 3 targets, this one hits only 1 if uncharged?

[Yuggernaut]

no more previews from patroms and old players rewards this week? :/

This preview is about the Rusk event.

We'll update you on other stuff when there is new info to share.

It hits three (3) targets.

Updated the preview info.

In-game info should also reflect this... but even if it doesn't the attack will still strike three (3) enemies.

[dmqp]

Buff DPS of warrior weapon finally. Why ebon aegis' proc in weapon, when it is literally useless vs Rahabkor or Hedoura, 2 most active PvE zones? Disappointed with weapon.

[Nexior]

In guaranteed arcanes , wil be only new force items ?

No - as per the post, the guaranteed are Level 81 Arcane items.

[Statsonly]

So basically arcane version of 81 force weapons? Great!

[Ilove_Poopoo]

Whats the point of pushing targets? its not good in any scenario.

[lethal]

why does bow have same special effect as mage always? so unfair. Mage can shoot 10x a second with haste and bow has no haste
please balance

[Nexior]

No - as per the post, the guaranteed are Level 81 Arcane items.Hope you consider adding new force items on it
Would be nice

Is the night saber blade like the mythic saber knight? I mean, with basic hits, activate your proc with CD and charged it too or is it different?

[Kairihearts]

Any pics of the proto type pack pls?

[recilencia123]

excusme, the pull from up to 10m and armor reduction have cooldown like charge attack(12 seconds) or dont have cooldown? ty:)

WoW is that powerful weapons, I imagine that with them it takes 0.004 seconds less to make a run to the map (everything dies from instakill, I don't understand why put weapons intended for mobs)

[Noonit]

idk who asked for this... barely even worth it.
i just know these end game players are tired of the money grab moves. releasing an "upgraded" weap for a "more efficient" boss farm when u still need to proc w the previous expansion's weap. sb weaps have the same effect just a slight disadvantage in the bonus stats.
idk abt this.

I would love for each introduction of new weapons to make videos or gifs showing the potential of each one.

[imfeared]

Does new force count toward sb set proc?? Like the 81 myth weapons did to zaarus

[Activista]

It's the same as the mythical 81, don't expect anything else, besides it doesn't have any use at the moment unless they nerf Kraken but what else would you use it for (apart from uploading statistics)

[Ypredator]

Everything is very good but I think that 2k plat is quite high if they make a plat discount it would be good for players to take advantage and buy the set.

Others, the aura would look much better if we removed the floor decal like this in a natural and real style.

[Budoypao]

This is awesome Thank you.

[Firulaisss]

We don’t need more sets, by now lol SB is so OP that arcane set can wait till end of the year honestly. What we need is better vanitys and more dynamics in the game to maintain us entertained playing. :3 Rusk weapon honestly, very soon to add them or literally not necessary has we have SB weapons and they were buffed.

Where do you see a new set? I can only see a new weapon, just like force weapons, those are for use after proc, so relax lol

[Wowcritically]

Wow , swre el primero

[nathan2693]

ok so is the vanity helmet and armor that we can buy at NPC vendor and the vanity armor and helmet that we can get from 2k plat pack sale are the same? if yes, isnt this considered a scam? if yes then the color of the vanity armor and helmet that we can get from 2k plats should be changed to either white or silver or else its like we just bought the aura for 2k plats. true there are lots of vanity weapons and halos to get from this 2k plat pack but some of it are available from crates as well. 2k plat is a lot and it needs justice if its like that...


no harm intended. I'm just posting my honest feedback before the event starts

[Activista]

I'm glad it's not you who decides what we need :3

and for the upcoming aura. it feels like a new variant of covid. recyled.... first we have cosmic corruption, death mist, and now this. this new rusk aura looks good tho but come on anyone can tell that its been recycled and recolored.


hoping that stronghold siege event will bring a new and fresh looking aura and i think it will since the vanity theme for it origami inspired. I'm somewhat excited to see an origami aura..please let it be original.


Thank you

[Americanarmy]

Sorrcer force orb looks fireee asfff

[Kale-Linty]

Can we get an unlocked crate for like 1000 tokens to open. With this, it encourages players to farm more tokens after they acquire the vanity sets.

[Sucr]

Unlocked crate would be an amazing addition, please consider it as most players will farm the new vanities in under 1-2 days, leaving 5 days of nothing to do :)

[Susanne]

no more previews from patroms and old players rewards this week? :/

Nope. That won't be happening soon. I'm starting to believe the doubters now. The ones who told me "things" before they quit the game. Never mind, it's Spring Cleaning time so I'm off to clean my springs.

Last years Stronghold Siege event was very good. A fun new wave event with the royal lineage aura, cool vanitys, vorlish orc weaps. No doubt this year will be great again, to ease your mind :p

+1 def need this one

[Killyxan]

The cool-down on charged attack (warrior weapon) seems long it should be 10 secs duration and 15 seconds cool-down its arcane after all.

The 25% armor debuff seems low since it doesn’t snare targets (or it does and it Dosent say in the preview) it should be 50% armor debuff and 25% damage debuff

And still the mythic star beast weapons should have 7 seconds proc duration and 12 seconds cool-down its mythic rarity so in my opinion it should be like this since 81 arcanes have 8 seconds duration and 12 seconds cool-down

Unless u will make a new upcoming item that buff the duration of the proc but at least let us know now if you have plan for this

Thanks

Nobody needs them, for example the reflection of the new weapons is useless, it is for normal enemies (Kraken kills by touching the enemy) there is no place to use them

[Oawaoebi]

Yes after next awake event 86 risk weapons are best again. It’s sad that u didn’t come up with any new ideas. Force gun, rusk gun, star staff and star orb, the stats are identical with 0.5% - 2% stat differences.

FYI not everyone farming exclusively Hedo and Raha, i and many other are mostly farming aps, and also dont use and don't want use full myth 86, i am using only 3 pcs myth, krak aegis and armor with a op ss, plenty enough for indigo atm, doing pet cap aps, new force wep will be perfect for when new elite map will be there, there will be new aps and this reflection wep will come in handy i'm sure.

Yeah they really need to nerf kraken so we can move on from the ridiculous proc buffs. Its just completely broken, boring, and mind numbing. Everything dies in an instant and the game is feeling mighty crusty right now. You may like the reflection but thats only 1/3 of the characters. Try a different class for a change and maybe you can see from a different pov for once.

Not everyone is farming gold no, but APs are vastly just how much time and money you can put into the game, you can do most of them while watching t.v. with zero risk of death ect.

Unless they really nerf kraken then i do not see any need for these weapons. I also do not think its good to push out new gears, let people get to a power level they are comfortable with, then nerf the game weeks later. Thats bs.

I play war and don't plan to play other class anytime soon, indigo map with average gear and krak wep is perfectly balance rn, doing this pet aps is long and boring but i get kill sometimes, so when elite come i don't think kraken will be too much op, especially for us warrior who are always having hard time to kill boss if we are alone in an empty map...

wtf, brother, where do you get those hypotheses from? The warrior is very broken even in bosses, I think you should analyze the situation more, there is nothing balanced as you say, the Kraken deserves a nerf, the strength is very exaggerated and this new weapon will have no value if the Kraken is superior in speed killing enemies As I said before, the new weapon only serves as statistics.

Warrior now in game is killing everything, warrior now clan clean well enough and kill every boss in seconds. [emoji23] maybe you are too weak to do it but there are a lot of warrs that’s can do that. (With neptaris weapon that’s still so op that needs a nerf)

if you a rich rogue switch to warrior so you can be a unkillable tank and also solo bosses like a rogue.

Good, gl to all ^^

lol they just keep fighting about balance/imbalance . Looks cool to me, everything is perfectly balanced.. just need to grind and get good gear simple af.
Old guys need to accept the fact game works different now

the game is fine but i agree the roles are not the right what they are supposed to be

Warrior is a Tank and shouldnt be a freaking rogue lol

there is no sense to play in a team like rogue + mage + warrior if every role is everything at the same time lol
