Speculation abounds! Supposed 'leaked pics' of alpha test.

(Other two are screenshots, so I'll leave them in link form)

Got it off GameFAQs, who probably got it off gwonline.net. Consensus seems to be that it's faked, but it looks fairly well done to me. Heard of other supposed 'leaked' screen shots, but I only saw these three.

Searched the forums, didn't turn up anything. Sorry if it has been posted.

Iduno.

Beast Mastery? If true, I'd say: fix the beasts first, thx.

This is photoshop 0.0

The whips dont seem to be in place there it looks too good to be there.
and the skills hmmm dunno about that it would be cool though.

I see the little loading icon on the upper right corner. Why would they have to load something if it's an alpha build?

Also, how come the dwarves in the background have a green aura around them? I don't see a necro anywhere..

Target priority seems a little cumbersome to use in a window like that. Whips would be cool though, even though 16-30 damage seems like a lot to me, especially if you can hit several opponents.

but look at the weapons Ivory whip hmmmm Ivory bow annyone?

I say its photoshop. (atleast until Gaile confirms it)

isnt Snare far too overpowered?

What kind of material would a whip be made out of to do 30dmg lol. Since when did a whip do more dmg than a sword..arrow..etc. Even the wording on the pics dont sound right I believe its a fake also. Whats next Bullwhip of Charslaying? Upgrades include "Rubber grip of percision" +5% landing of a critical hit Or something flashy like a "Lighting Bullwhip"

its fake.
it shld say Bull's Whip of Beast Mastery.

HAHA they are caught in the act Thirtypercent is absolutely right.

On a second note some stone summit seem to be graphicly added 1 has a Mohawk o.0

Whips as an Beastmastery linked skill?



Maybe they should make more Beastmastery skills instead of a Weaponmastery type skills. :P

Fake. Can tell by the writing use, how it is blurry. And also.. if it is for Chapter 2, why are they outside of granite citadel?

Looks fake. The fonts dont appear to be correct and the pictures are blah at best. Also the snare skill sounds a lot like scorpions attack from mortal kombat. I say its a fake!

(Chance: 5% )

As soon as I saw Snare I knew it was fake. ANet may make some impopular decisions, but they're not stupid as far as balance goes. Snare could make a person unable to use skills pretty much indefinitely.

Fake fake fake fake fake
But kudos to whoever spent the time to make it reasonably believable.

Wow. What a waste of time. It looks very real though :P

Fake for sure

- font kerning is incorrect
- note where the Ivory Thrasher says "Causes Bleeding (chance 5% )" - you left an extra space between the "%" and the ")" - other GW items don't have this

nice try, though

I didn't make this, just to tell you. Found it on GameFAQs, where apparently it has been spotted on GWonline and HoH

ALPHA TEST. Meaning they won't be 'balanced' or 'perfect'.

Still, probably fake.

I hope it is not a fake. I would like to see whip attacks in the next Chapter. However i dont think it should be linked to Beastmastery. That attribute has enough problems as is. Hopefully it is for a new class!
