Ever since they announced the winners of this contest I was atleast partially interested in seeing some of the in game versions of these. And now that eye of the north is actually out, it seems like they didn't make any of the actual winners besides the glacial blade.
The thing that really strikes me as odd is they made one of the runners up(the rose focus) and even an honorable mention(the darksteel longbow). All of the 2005 winners were included in the game, so whats the deal here? Only way I can actually see them including the other designs is through the bonus mission pack thats eventually coming, I'm not gonna hold my breath on this one.
The design a weapon winners

The Design-A-Weapon winners are not yet in the game. It's really that simple, and it's exactly as we said in the contest information. The weapons will be added, and we have some fun ideas for that, so look for that in the future.

I'd love to see some endgame weapons addded to Prophecies. It's pretty anti-climactic just to be taken back to Droknars Forge upon beating the game, especially if you've finished any of the other games before this.
But either way, I'm really looking forward to what they're going to do with this. I'm guessing a few of them will be available from the Bonus pack missions, which would be very mean for those of us who can't get it.

Yeah it would be nice for them to add a new endgame part to Prophecies. New endgame armor/weapons. *cough* *wink* Come on Anet!

yeah pls DON'T MAKE EM GREENS.
While greens are good for newbs and all that, it takes the fun away not being able to modify them. (customisation doesn't count)

Nah you guys got it all wrong... The design a weps contest winners will be added in at the same time as GW:EN Hard Mode (which has already been confirmed to be in the works, unlike Phrophecy endgame items).

Well thank you Gaile for that bit of information, I was thinking that they were supposed to be released with eye of the north, I must have been thinking of the brand the bosses contest which were all included in it.

Well, it's not like they'll be recognised in your HoM...

Dont forget about the mission pack we get in November for spending money on the online store, it said we were supposed to get new items.
The Herbalizer
Well there is end game prophecies greens in gwen, lool.
Theli
what about, Armor Design Contest, instead of reskinned armors :S.
BTW yes, we need new weapons for prophecies, Gold Weapon Crafter like Tormented or Destroyer in Prophecies and Factions. And End Game Green/Armor for Prophecies.
25 missions for nothing.
Cantha 13 missions for Green/Armor
Elona 20 missions for Green/Armor + Doa with Tormented Weapons

Ahh well... Thanks for clarifying Galie.
And to clarify MY post, Galie did confirm Hard Mode elsewhere. The part about when the design a weapon would be included was my speculation (wrong though).

Yeah you kinda got proven wrong by someone that works for the game company, I think you should just go hide in a corner.

I think that red dragon scythe is really the only one that is GW:EN only. the glacial blade and such are those sneak peak bonus items, so they don't REALLY count.
i mean saurian scythe. it's red, shaped like a dragon's head. I'm pretty sure thats the one =o.
but yeah... Prophecies needs engame stuff too. Kinda get shafted if you have prophecies and not the other campaigns.

Gaile, any word about an approximate time frame for HM to be added? It gets frustrating having done everything and needing HM to finish the EotN titles off. :'(
Shai Lee
I kind of like that HM hasn't been implemented yet. It kind of helps people to focus on exploration and enjoying the things that GW:EN has brought forth, versus trying to farm the areas for profit. At least you want to work on the titles as a goal, which is something that I like to do too. I barely got the game yesterday so I clearly havn't ended the game, and even if I had gotten the game at release, I still wouldn't be done because I have 10 characters. :P Most I talk to havn't ended GW:EN yet either, so they're still in the exploring phase too or are having fun in dungeons or playing games like Polymok. You've really done everything fully, Kamikaze? o.O
Faer
Sure, end-game greens for Prophecies. Sounds awesome. I can't wait for my super awesome "Sword of the Prince" green! Fiery and +5 Armor FTW!
Because we really need more amazing skins with horrible and fixed stats.

Well if you think about it all the characters tha you can make from proph ha way more skills than any of the other unique classes (i.e. sins, rits, paras, dervs) so its not really fair any way you look at it from campaign to campaign so who really cares? I do to be honest, I think you should get the same benefits from campaign to campaign, like if I make a para I should be able to get just as many skills as Rangers, if I decide to buy another campaign. That will never happen, which is a shame because it causes them to not be equal and fair...
I asked Gaile this once in town and she responded to me by saying that it would be too complicated to do. When I thought about it I think its right, because there are too many factors involved. For one it has to look distinctively like the class, which can be complicated to judge because the art team tha would judge may be picky. Also, people have complained about not being able to draw well in the DaW contest so they would have to apease to these people as well, when it is hard to redraw on a design that's not very detailed. There's other factors I may not be thinking of but these are what come from the top of my head...

However the guy has a point, mods do close threads on the same subject no matter how long ago it was posted and tell you to "use that thread", but then you get idiots like you who then say it's thread resurrecting, bla bla...
