I want a better picture of the staff, but I'm just hoping people start farming SoO nonstop so I can get a suntouched staff really cheap.

ugh... i think we got shafted on that bone dragon staff. the only one i was hoping to look REALLY good turned out poorly. shame...

The bone dragon staff... Looks a little... Lame? Sorry for the highschool lingo, theres no other way of describing it.
The hammer got shafted as well, that damn face plate should've been 3D, sorry Anet your textures aren't THAT great.

I must say, when I first opened this thread a day or so ago to look at the new weapons... and saw the spear... I lol'd. Such a disgrace to the original artwork.
The scythe is alright, though still seems a bit plastic. Undyed, it looks like something you might find at a toy store... Had a spare amulet sitting around so I completed Sanctum and sold one.
The daggers seem nicely detailed, though it appears the tassles were left out. Would have looked nicer as a sword imo... always saw it/them as one for some reason.
The hammer actually looks very nice, and though a bit wider than the concept art, is my favorite of this second batch so far.
The bone dragon staff... wow. The tail/spine of the original art seem to have been completely left out... looks awfully bland. Could just be that it's in the presence of Wasabi, perhaps causing the staff to appear insignificant in all that glimmering green glory...
Edit: The second pic of the spear appears to have been updated...? Though it's still meh.

Dragon Staff looks like absolute crap compared to the concept.
Ceremonial Spear looks like absolute crap compared to the concept.
Daggers are meh.
Scythe is nice.
Archaic Maul is very nice.

maybe this is the wrong place for this question, but it seems relevant so...
Does the heart/organ inside the bone dragon staff pulsate?
If it does, that would redeem the fact that its eyes aren't glowing red and the handle is crap to me
Thanks!

Seriously people, wikis are designed to accomadate the free spread and exchange of ideas, not exploit people to make more fake money off your "leet drop." If you know where an item dropped, report it. If you don't want to do that, at least report it accurately instead of lying about it.

Refer to page 17 of this thread for the proof.

That staff is awesome! As i the hammer, not too sure about the others. I wish those daggers had been a sword.

Secondly,
Somebody could have droped an unided one far away from the chest (or been with a guild group and coordinated it so he didn't have to worry about someone stealing it), wait for a few for other people openning the chest, and then picked it up.
Or it could have been shopped. The point is, the page 17 post isn't exactly "proof" either. We need multiple posts with confirmed drops.
After the Draconic Aegis now confirmed to not drop in Dalada Uplands and people still not sure WHERE it drops besides the z-chest, the "assume good faith" policy is over.
Now, they could legitamately drop there, but like I said, ceberation's post makes me VERY suspicious (why fake the picture with the "drop and then pick it back up methoid" if they legitamately drop there?).
Edit: and those daggers where always clearly daggers. Look at the design of the hand grip. It doesn't make sense as anything else.
malevolence
mmm, they need to fix the Bone Dragon Staff asap. The concept art is great but ingame is crap
I hope they fix it.
I hope they fix it.

I can see why people are not coming forward to help or share information nowadays. Post a pic, share an information ... and get questioned and put to trial.
I would rather keep the info to myself if I have them.

im surpised. I made a Suggested that Bone Dragon Staff dropped from Shard of Orr from a conformation from my guildie has told it has been proven that the Staff drops from End Chest of Shard Of Orr. Lucky Guess who knew. Anyway if you like to add where the staff drops. Bone Dragon Staff does drop from End Chest of Shard of Orr Dungeon this has been been proven.

I normally care very little about the latest craze in the skins department ... but ... the staff!
So bad!
If it stays this way - it's gonna be worth getting one just so that I have one of the ugliest things in the game!
So good!

I've also confirmed that the Draconic Scythe does indeed drop from Urgoz.
Run was in HM, only one dropped but it was gold R9 inscribable. I was pissed because I got two R13 Zodiac staffs...
No pic, but with this many people concurring I doubt you really need one.
EDIT: People thought it was dyed black at first because when you equip it in Urgoz, the scythe takes on it's shadow skin and turns jet black.
EDIT2: I'm pretty sure the new skin of the Ceremonial Spear drops there too. Not too sure because I didn't see the guy equip it myself, he just said it looked different than the old one. Also heard that the Scythe and Spear both drop in The Deep, but I haven't tried it since the update nor has anyone I know.

Its not like its been said 10 odd times in the thread that these wepons drop from the factions elite missions.
ReZDoGG
Daggers are ok, would have to see them in game myself to confirm if I like them or not. The Scythe ok, but nothing worth spending 100k on. The spear is just plain ugly, and it is definately another low quality textured weapon. The Bone staff is nothing great, looked better in concept art. The Archiac Maul is actually the better looking skin so far, looks like it was perfessionally done, unlike others. I really want to see the Eagle axe, and hope it ain't some ugly white looking skin, but should be chromed out instead.... doesn't need to look exactly like an eagle with color, but just design. I am not sure if it was added yet, or was mistakenly left out. Maybe you can only get them from locked chest in Far Shiverpeaks, and thats probably why no one found one yet as not many people like to do chest runs in that area. So far with both sets of Design a Weapon skins, most are disappointing and should have put more time into them. I mean GW can make some really nice skins, like Voltiac Spear, Silverwing Recurve bow, and other nice skins, but these just don't seem to be as their level of quality at all.

I like the bone dragon staff quite abit to be honest :S
The hammer absolutely kicks ass too, the spear sucks tho... The scythes Ok and the daggers are pretty lame....
At least we got 3 alright new skins

I don't like the way how the recently added shield is equipped by the characters. I mean they are gripping those shields in Paragon-like manner and it looks weird and spoil the aesthetics. If Anet consider reverting the shield equip manner to the standard way, I will get it.

Archaic Maul is my new chase skin. 
Though my Warrior isn't a Hammer Warrior I just might invest some time in Hammers for this one.

Any proof about where the hammer drops? :s
Even though anything can be PSed, I'd like some trustworth user to spread the official news :P

A small but possibly irrelevant point - just had new files download into the Frontier Gate in Prophecies.

Here's an uncropped screenshot (hopefully better quality) of the storm daggers, as requested earlier.
Edit: While I am at it, might as well just crop it too.
