GWEN Drops..... inscribable or not, share your thoughts...

They will be inscribable. And, like Timebandit's post above, the best reason I can give for why this is a good thing is the absurd staff depicted below.

Eotn drops will be inscribable of course, because if they didn't that'd just be moving backwards and not creating a better game.

It seems many people in favor of non-inscribable drops are playing the wrong game - GW isn't the game where you can find the "ultimate sword" with godly stats that will make kills effortless. My friend stopped playin GW when she realized GW was more of a strategy game rather than the more usual MMORPG. Because of that, Anet doesn't favor imbalance (as we all know). There's no items meant to be superior to another (except the few rare unconditional pve items), the only difference is the skin. If you're looking to show off your cool rare items, you're better off moving to another game because even if you are rich in GW, this game is more based on your skillbar and how well you can use it. The inscribable system is good for the casual player obviously.....more dedicated players will also like it.

I do hope they will be inscribable. Make life easier for a lot of people who want nice looking stuffs with mods that they want.

They will be inscribable, which is fortunate. Many Guild Wars players also have "real lives" (lives that are lived in the lands of earth, not tyria/cantha/elona), and they shouldn't be denied "leet gear" because they spend their time more productively (instead of sitting in front of a computer screen farming fake money all day long).

ur all right, gw is turned into nothing but hand outs.... FREE CHEESE.... lets all live off a system where everyone is equal, noone has to or is wanting to "earn" or "work for" anything.....

as i said, lets make all swords "gladius" all axes "war axes" all hammers "war hammers" all staves "jeweled" lets just see how many ppl would play the game more then a week.....

then the desire of the game for everyone will soon be gone......

Bleh. who wants a white inscribable weapon...... I LIKE GOOOOOOOLLLLLLDDDDD

Actually, there are no white inscribables, inscribables are always at least blue.
And not all blue, purple or gold drops come with inscriptions, only those with that property.
A swod may come with hilt and pommel only, without other mods (I got some of those myself).

Figures talk. Inscriptions are good. Items with unalterable variable properties suck. Common properties should stay fixed. Moddalbe properties must be variable.

original req 9 15^50 weapons are still as rare as they were before nightfall, just because you can get a good skin and put a nice inscription on it doesn't make the old weapons less rare, right? i've some old weps which i payed good money for, just because they were 15^50 with no inscription, i'm vain and i think it looks better :P still i'm all for inscriptions, at least you can use the weapons you find for something other than taking the merchants money. ok enough rambling from me ^^
drops in GW:EN should have inscriptions, just let the old weapons stay as they are (even if tyria and cantha will get inscription weapons leave the old ones as they are).

I don't care very much simply because the max status won't be differend from Prophecies, Factions or Nightfall. It would be intersting if the items had some increased power, but they wont have that. So basically players who start GW:EN will most probably already have maxed items from the other chapters. And be able to get more... there. Its only intersting if you care for new looks.
