Hey guys, I love the new veteran items, but I have a suggestion to improve it. How about if they added a Roman themed weapon to go with the set which makes a bonus? I think this would be awesome!

Well, there are a few that look Roman. Mostly the d'jinn spears (40's?). :pQuote:

Darn it, someone said it before me! Well, I'll second the motion. The Romans used spears. There's not much more to a spear than a stick with a sharp end. Any old spear in the game will do.
I agree with Zapoke! A roman themed bow or staff would be awesome!
I tried equipping a few spears and some made the vanity shield disappear.Quote:

Spears not showing vanity shields is a known issue. Some 2h weps pierce through to shield too.Quote:

Perhaps that is a little minor bug of some kind? It was just released the new gear, so there may be a few bugs.
Equip a orcish bow they look awesome with armor an helm...also hate armor new helm an orcish bow!' Dont bite mystyle! Lol
Yeah I like that idea. I also think you guys should make it like the elite armor and make the armor fit the character instead of looking baggy or awkward on birds and mages.
When did they give out award?
How about a golden helm fo those who've been playing for 1 year +
I agree they look like a bears stuff it doesn't look right on mages and specially birds for example the helm looks too bog on a bird.Quote:

A vanity weapon would be cool to only if it was per class, no wand wielding mage wants a spear.
1month helm, 3 month Armor, 6 month shield, 1yr Trojan horse pet, 1.5yr Vanity weapon.
how about for a one year we get a spear or a sword .:)
What about the mages? No wand or Staff..??Quote:

The Romans are famed for their use of the Roman Spatha, a shortsword with a curve towards the middle of the sword meant for hacking and slashing. Fun fact: even though their swords were designed as the perfect cutting weapons, the romans actually prefered to stab with them, wierd right?
Sorry if I sounded a bit pompous, I am a major ancient greek and roman history buff lol.
A magical weapon would look perfect, to stick with the theme of rome then the perfect thing for mages would be the Legion's golden eagles. In roman mythology the Legion's golen eagles were said to be blessed by the gods themselves giving them special powers depending on which god blessed them. I can tell you from what I have read (both roman stories and The Son of Neptune (a Rick Riordan novel)) that the 7th Legion's eagle was blessed by Jupiter giving it the power to fire lightning bolts, I think this would work perfectly for mages.Quote:

This is already a free game, with free PvP/CTF, and Main Spine.
They finally consented to giving us THREE FREE VANITIES, especially the Armor One, where there currently exists only 3-4 Armor Vanities ingame. To give us a Veteran Weapon, before an Elite Weapon/Platinum Vanity Weapon would be asking for too much. Especially when it comes to a set bonus. If you want a bonus and cool vanities, go earn it by dungeoning to the elite level.
I think the Developers have done great with the Veteran Rewards.
Just we should be happy with what we have so far.
Personally I'm thinkin it's the perfect opportunity to make the wep a reward for an epic cyber type quest where we have to farm the pieces to craft!
-sue
Ed- I'm toally happy with this cool thing I got, & am not beggin for more but they did ask in a different thread if we had any other ideas, so that's y I suggested.
I think it definitely should have a set bonus
Btw I took a pic of my disappearing shield, don't comment on my noob gold amount or stats!!! :mad:
Player that have been here for over a year diserve one spear or weapon. :)
A vanity weapon would look awesome, Skeletonlord. Nice suggestion. Though, they don't have a section in the inventory for vanity weapons.
I don't see vanity weapons working. Especially in a PvP environment. Let's say the devs give players a spear. Suddenly, you're in PvP and about to fight a mage. You get ready to use your pally combo, then quickly realize that they're int, by the time you try and counter the player as an int mage, you're dead from the nukes given off that weren't expected to be given off by a pally. I for one am against vanity weapons. They will cause lots of confusion. At the time being, the weapon is the only way to determine what spec the player is, and vanity weapons would take that away.
thats the point trying to get people to fight you but they never know what you are because the vanities override the regular weapons making harder for people to figure what you are. i say yes for vanity weapons.Quote:

And make it a proper weapon not a vanity where the lvl of area n team determine lvl n strength of weapon
Because The only vanities that should give the set bonus is the ones were people have reach the level cap, and everyone will eventually have the veteran vanities. I think it would most definitely be asking for too much just for a vanity bonus.Quote:
