So how do you guys know there is like 15 new weapons/items?

Obviously we all seen the 6-7 of them o.o... but people keep saying there is like 8 more!

Where do you get this info?

if its true, maybe we can only find 6-7 because they are giving them out in sets >.> like next month will be the last 8 or something... dunno.

I think it's only fair to say a definite number, and to provide the artwork, too. Look for that on the website next week.

(No, it's not 15!)

Soo...what we're looking at is 6 weapons (possibly more) and we've found

Daggers
Hammer
Axe
Fan
Fan
Bow

No other zones have been reported to load...perhaps there are more than one green in the zones (like the falls) that did load.

Have to agree, tried 4 more times with a full group and couldn’t come close 3 times to even putting a dent in him.

Well i asked Gaile in-game about the items and she thought only 5 new items were being added. We have found at least 6 so that didnt help :x

I also asked if there was at least 1 new item per profession, Gaile said there was not unforunately :/ (i asked this question first).

Maybe this means giving up the hunt for ele/monk items, but my fave profession is ele ><

I was talking about getting the Hammer by soloing with a Rit. Too overpowering.

As I said.. a rit can do it... if you really wanna go overboard bring a ranger with EoE and let him barrage while you tank...

ok wait...if these are the contest winners...how are there daggers??

The design-a-weapon contest didnt include daggers.

Was it an off-hand focus that they decided would be better as daggers?

Rotwing will be average in price since it is kind of hard to get. but drops everytime. (on the runs i've been on)

Totem -- too ez to farm so thats why it dropped (good i sold mine early =)

And i dunno about the rest i never got a fan tho from farming for totems =(

There are about ~6-8 grawls, that you can safely engage and kill with glad defence.

Indeed you cant do the bosses alone. I can solo this with a pure sword warrior build. The key is to either run past the bosses, or ignore them completely (you can only do that with the warrior boss). Take out the Barbed Grawl first since they follow you after you hit them once (bring a long/flatbow) and run away from the group till the Mighty ones stop following and let the Barbed ones follow you. You may have to take out a group of Crones and regular Grawl before you attempt this. Drop rate of the hammer and Frozen Fans seems rather low... I've only found one hammer so far. I may share my build after I've found a few more

I don't know if this is worth anything, but I did get a d/l in Bukdek Byway earlier. Maybe it's there instead?

Heres a quick update, after soloing and dual running the grawls, Mighty grawls have to be weilding the Ice Breaker for it to drop (and if they are wielding it, it will drop), makes it pretty easy to farm that way.

However I tried the hit and run tactic with Conjure Nightmare and Phantasm but if the grawl are running away from you they wont drop they have to be engaged with you to drop. So I guess I'll just stick to my mass killing solo.
