Remiem's Weekly Community Update | February 3, 2016
A for Arcane
Greetings Legends, and welcome to your weekly community update!
Announcements
It's dangerous to go alone, take these Arcane Weapons!
The new set of Arcane Weapons arrive TOMORROW! The Arcane daggers, staff and 2H sword will be available exclusively in Massive Locked Ren'gol crates.
As many of you have speculated already, new Arcane Weapons herald the coming arrival of...a new expansion! One point of feedback that we received from a few players was that you're looking forward to more difficult content to conquer with these more powerful weapons. Well, I don't want to ruin any surprises, but....
....can anybody spot the difference?
Yes, you see right! The next level cap takes a massive leap forward--10 levels--to level 56! While these weapons seem all powerful now, they'll come in handy when you come face-to-face with new big baddies like....this guy, for example:
Keep an eye out for more info and teasers on the expansion closer to its release in Spring 2016, but, let's live in the moment for now, shall we? How about a look at those stats.
Procs
Daggers:
Chance on hit to electrocute the target for up to 4 seconds. Every second the Stun has a chance to jump to nearby enemies. Stun reduces armor by 35%, and allows Rogues with the daggers to combo with a 25% chance Dragon's Bite for additional damage.
Staff:
Chance on hit to apply a DoT that reduces target health by 7% per tick over 5 seconds (2.5% per tick on Bosses and Players). Charged Attack casts new spell: Consecrate - Blesses the ground beneath for 8 seconds, increasing raw damage dealt, crit chance, and reducing damage taken. The initial cast also does damage to nearby enemies. Only one Consecrate can be up at a time, recasting replaces the current one.
2H Sword:
Chance on attack, Lava Spouts that spawn around the player for 10 seconds, dealing damage and applying a dot. Enrages the warrior with a boost in raw damage and every attack stuns in PvE for the duration of the buff. Players and PvE Bosses have a 20% chance to be stunned on hit instead of 100%.

Some Clarifications
We received a lot of questions from the community about these achievements and how they work. Here are answers to a few of the most common:
Q: Does Jarl count toward the Boss count in Brackenridge?
A: No, Jarl is categorized as a "mini-boss," even in Elite, and will not count toward this achievement. The other Brack bosses will.
Q: How do we know if the things we're killing are counting toward the achievement?
A: Each time you kill an eligible boss or mob you'll see stars appear and fly toward the top of the screen. This is your indicator that that kill counted toward an achievement.
Q: Can we get a counter of our kills so we can track our progress?
A: This isn't a feature that is currently built in to our achievement system, but this is definitely something we'll take into consideration for the future.
