At any point will set bonuses be introduced?
The design complaints are hilarious. Personally I think the helmets look great... A bit same-y but completely understandable: They have a long road ahead to make the gear huge and epic, why peak early by unloading their entire arsenal now? If capped, these toons will still be L26! Not 76! =)
Besides, if you must hunt down this new gear for the stats but hate the look, just wrap some vanities over it... problem solved!
Lookin forward to the update... YARRR!
I don't see the point of having a super rare weapon with the same stats. sry but it better have beast stats!Quote:

Yes im not against it.. better stats its cool.. but just this arcane weapon is only for one class rouges. Warriors and sorcerers get their arcane weapon next expansions and thats few months away. So i dont see in this point fair for this classes if rouges r the only one with beats arcane weaponQuote:

This is true, i think it will ofc. balance out in the end. I don't know how likely the drops for the weapon will be so i cant say how much it will affect PvP or PvE lb time.Quote:

Whether there will or will not be many update is beside my point :) But those players who do get it will have a big advantage over the rest. Which would be fine, if there was a rifle and sword as well in those chests... However this is not the case. It is an arcane item, so I suppose the stats will be similar. And it won't give the same or lesser stat as of a lvl 26 alp, but it'll be a lot stronger! Otherwise why would you call it arcane? So this will give an edge to rogues, yet I can farm all I want and I won't find an arcane mage item, possibly until lvl 36 :( Which does make me sad...Quote:

True, we will see what happens. I agree that it isn't balanced class wise. We will see how the stats for this weapon end up being. :) love yah guys.Quote:

quick add of similar gear even looking almost like rogue's one will fix it. But STS perhaps thinks it would harm their profit :(

Also, Lets Keep In Mind That Not Too Many People Are Really Going To Get Their Hands On It.

Guys, you can bet the arcane rogue weapon will have stats only slightly better than the best pinks. It does not have to be OP for everyone to want it. In PL folks used to pay 20m+ for dragon sets which gave only very small stat bonus. As far as it "not being fair", sorcerers and warriors will have their chance in the next two campaigns, so in the end it will be totally fair.
And yes, folks can pass stuff around to get achievements. That is how it was in PL as well. My friends and I just passed around the items so we could all get the achievements. If you have close enough friends willing to lend you items that cost millions of gold, then good for you!
Actually you will have an advantage, since the other arcane weapons will be based on the next level cap. Those who will have the rogue one, will have them at (I assume) the max cap level of this expansion.
STS, I don't think it's fair to your loyal following that you're doing this with Arcane items. You guys have been hyping this ultra rare (which is awesome) gear for over a month and now that it's being released, it's not even complete. You offer a helm (which looks a lot like Demonlord) but no armor to complete the set? Why? That is just a bad move on your part, I think. Why promote this stuff and then only offer half of the package? Why can't you just release the whole set at once like every other game on the market? I fail to see how you think this is a good idea. And to make it worse, you release a weapon too. A single weapon that leaves 2/3 of the classes in the game with nothing. Why couldn't you release a weapon for all three classes? What is the point of holding this back, making us wait, and making us angry after all this hype for Arcane items?
It's a pointless move STS. There is no justifiable reason to do this to the players. If you're going to release something, give us the complete package or nothing at all. You can't be stringing us along like this and leave us hoping that sometime in the next 6 months we might get some gear for our class released.
STS, you guys have been around for a while now and I think your fans that have been with you from the beginning expect better from you.
I completely agree with this.....

And then if they did what you suggest and released both armor and helms, and weapons for all classes, then you would complain that they are too rare and would want them to be more common, and in the end it sounds like you really don't want mythic or arcane items at all and just want the rarest items to be like the pinks currently are.Quote:

The only point of having arcane and mythic items is that they be super rare, otherwise they should just be pinks. And if they are common enough that a single player can put together a full set with weapon, armor and helm, then they are far too common to be arcane or mythic.

Please don't put words into my mouth. I never once said that I wanted these items to be more common. I embrace super rare equipment because it's just that much more awesome when you finally get it. In case you didn't notice, when I mentioned ultra rare in my post I put "(which is awesome)" afterwards. That's my way of saying it's about time they got some high end uber rare gear in this game that only a handful of people will have.
My complaint was not about how rare they are, it's that there's hardly even anything there. I was looking forward to spending my nights hunting for that rare gear (which I might very well never get) ever since they announced Mythic and Arcane rareness. But now it turns out they got me all hyped up and excited for nothing. There's a helmet and a weapon I can't even use, that's it, nothing else. And I am disappointed! Pretty much they got me all excited for stuff that's "coming soon!" but now it's almost here and I find that I have to wait 2-6 months before I can even begin to hunt for Mythic and Arcane items I can equip.
That's my complaint. They can be so rare nobody ever gets one, I don't care, I just want it to be there. You don't go around talking about awesome new rarities and then only release a helmet and a rogue weapon. Give us awesome new gear to hunt now! Not get us pumped for this stuff and say the rest is coming in the next 2 expansions.
I think part of the reason that it's being only released for rogue is due to the nerf on daggers not too long ago. Prior to the nerf rogues would be able to take out a warrior 1v1 with ease, assuming same level and maxed gear. Post nerf, warriors rule the pvp kingpin. I presume that the sudden nerf has something to do with this arcane swords release to allow for balancing despite the higher dps.Quote:

I apologize for assuming you were in that camp as I described above. But as I'm sure you realize, many of those complaining think exactly what I posted. I think the main reason STS did it this way is to avoid such complains. If there are only a couple of items available, then maybe not many folks will rage when they don't get one after a few days. Notice that all the complaining about Hammerjaw seems to have gone away since he is so rare that most have never even seen someone with him. I think they are figuring the same thing for these other items.Quote:

I don't know about you, but I'll be farming for it for sure, even though I'm a sorcerer. Getting one of those will give you enough money to buy whatever else you need. Maybe you can sell it and save the money for the next campaign when they will have an arcane item that you can get. Then you will be able to buy it.
I think having only a rogue weapon for now, and then one at a time in each campaign, actually makes it interesting because it pretty much assures us that they will be available to buy for gold. With hammerjaw, you never see them for sale, because anyone lucky enough to get one just keeps it. But with this rogue weapon, many players do not have a rogue, so they will sell it when they get it.
Also lastly, I'd love to get it just for the achievement. Right now 250 achievement points is the difference between me being the #23 sorcerer and the #3 sorcerer on the "Top Players" leaderboard. Plus that arcane banner looks awseome. :)
You could also be tempted to make a rogue and enjoy pwning faces with an arcane weap :)
I agree with Ene!
kote!!
I want the arcane weapon so bad! It looks so cool! ^_^
Its now that people now fully understand what the meaning of Arcane rarity really is (that goes out to the people who spent quite a bit on hammer and got nothing). So people next time wont make the same mistake twice on burning money on locked/random plat items in any game.Quote:

Hopefully we can start farming for it today :)
EDIT: The Mythic Rarity Helms are having their appearance updated to new, unique looks. Look for them to be changed in a coming patch.
Cool sam!
Question, if I get the Arcane weapon. Do the Arcane Achievement unlock?
Well a friend of mine got the banner/achievement as soon as he opened the Hammerjaw Egg, so I guess it's safe to say so :)Quote:
