I hate how they put in these updates while Im sleeping, and then have to watch people show them off on the forum while I have to work all day. By the time I get home Jade Swords and Guardian of the Hunt shields will be overfarmed and less then 10k.

Well, no need to worry so much about overfarming / price dropping since they are not green items and therefore finding one of the new skins with perfect stats isn't That easy.

Hopefully they all are at least semi-rare what comes to the drop rates.

now where'd my post about the jade sword's skin go

i've not seen it in game yet, busy at work, but it looks like a longer/thinner/jade colored version of the basic ugly sword skin from the screenshots so far

I don't think we'll get amber sword just because there's a jade sword now.

Why?

Because there's no "Jade Shield" (while there's an Amber Aegis Shield since Factions came out).

Even if that were true, how is that a bad thing? You could then just buy them for 10k right? Unless you were thinking this was a way for you to turn a profit.

You've already posted complaining about the size of that sword, we get it already.... you want a big huge ginormous sword.

I'm going hunting in the UW and maybe the FoW for more later. I have a feeling an axe skin will be lurking in one of the two.

there also is a jade axe but no amber axe, maybe they added a kurzick adjustment for that?

Has anyone found a Lotus Staff as dropped by an enemy, or are they currently collector-only items?
So far all the weapons in this update have been quite impressive, but I'm especially interested in the Lotus Staff since it was one of my submitted designs =3

considering drops have been reported from forbidden chests, luxon chests, phantom chests, obsidian chests and kurzick chests, i wonder if anything would come out of a canthan chest? might be something to look into...

The new items are very cool but now we have Jade Swords and Jade daggers but no amber swords or daggers?
That makes me a bit sad......

Zidane, I'd definately be speaking for everyone to say CONGRATS on an awesome job.

Offers still open to anyone that wants to buy that shield off me :P

Beautiful shield zidane. Congratz.

Seems to me that the winners of the design contest should get a "perfect" version of the weapon they designed as a reward.

I agree, it seems a bit wrong that artists should have to farm their own weapon, lol.

Nice stuff, I'm definately going to need to grab one of those shields.

I disagree. Their weapons have been made reality in the Guild Wars world. That in itself is a large reward.
