"New and Rare Equipment" (Scribe #11)

http://www.guildwars.com/community/t...ibe-060817.php
Read the last paragraph, first sentence:
I deleted the "Green" from the thread title, because there is no reference to saying "Unique" weapons. Based on this Scribe, there well be new skins and some will be gold "rare".

Or maybe its the Antarctica-themed Chapter 4 - Guild Wars: Penguinland!

I'm wielding a Sundering Penguin of Fortitude!

Seriously, the Scribe may or may not be discussing Elonan items, but whatever they are they are certainly going to have some rare skins.


Well, this is the EXACT SAME THING they did last time they released the greens, so it's quite likely.

Unlikely, considering they went out of the way to remove all the PVP ones from players' possession after the weekend was over...

Now, Elonian skins for existing classes' weapons, that's a possibility...

I would like there to be a nice strength shield and that it gets overfarmed so it is worth nothing... and I hope that the shield dyes well >__>

The Scribe does suggest that the weapons are exceptionally powerful:

It seems whoever intercepted the shipment has no regard for the citizens of Cantha, for these miscreants have essentially armed some of the most villainous armies with powerful weapons to turn against the innocent.

Honestly, I guess we won't know until the actual update arrives.

haha that would be nice. Its always nice to see weapons that you could use and its overfarmed. And EVERYONE know it WILL be overfarmed. Must suck for the AI to be shredded every 2 secs, lol.


***Let the Temple of the Ages flooding begin!!!***

Looking back on the first Scribe with the weapon info, it does indeed say Unique there. Chief may be right.

Isn't the concept of having crateloads of something that's unique kind of self-contradictory?

i think that when it said individuals will be getting some new weapons, i think it is referring to those 2 outcast bosses in boreas seabed who had glitches and didnt appear until more recently: Milodestus the Wrangler and Ilidus of the Empty Palm. neither of them drop greens so far, so maybe now they will . . .

The article does not suggest that the weapons are "exceptionally" anywhere within The Scribe.

They are just reported as "powerful" ... which could generally mean just about anything. It could be just a statement, or it could mean there are new Modifiers / Upgrades being released, or they could all be Max Damage when dropped ... we have to wait and find out.

also, the new greens could be like the ones from the 6/15 update where multiple enemies drop them such as the tattered fan for the brotherhood in wajjun, or the totem axe for the root behomeths in the falls.
i believe that outcasts and wardens will now have similar items

I agree, no indication that they're green. Besides, they could evry well be like the IDS, always max, 15^50 and req 9, but still modable.

Or, and most likely, it's just embellishment by the scribe to make a good read.

That's why I said "suggests" and not "blatantly states". But like I said, we'll just have to wait and see.

The last batch of greens was missing a shield and sword...so my bet's on those being definite additions.

I really wouldn't be surprised if the items update was saved for next week. It would be pretty foolish for anet to add double faction to the two areas its trying to get populated then turn around and go tell people to farm elsewhere. If they do release both of these things in this weeks update I think they'll be shooting themselves in the foot as Jade Quarry won't nearly be as populated as it could be.

There is still another event to look forward to after this weekend (25th-27th). Then after that it's PvE Nightfall style Sept 1-3!

sounds exciting, i hope they're new nicely skinned/modded greens!

Remember the topk update? Added the green sickle and green shadow blade...

Here come the green crystalline swords and green dwarven axes.

Heh.

I sense...

Angelic weapons.

"I'm wielding a Zealous Angelic Bow of Fortitude!"

My I please have a wand or staff that has req healing prayers? Pretty please?
