sick.

and yes, give it time people, we have enough to be getting on with. If they add everything imaginable right now we wont have any fun new toys when act5, act6, act7 etc lands. Let them do their thing and eventually Im sure everything that is worth adding will end up in the game

Art feedback on the claw: It reminds me of a couple Klingon weapons. Good because it looks dangerous and interesting, but bad in the sense that the handle doesn't look thick enough to be properly and comfortably gripped. Trying to grip a flat piece of metal, even if it's wrapped in some leather, doesn't work well. Knives have proper handles for a reason, as do swords and every other practical weapon. Would the aesthetic of a riveted wood handle work there instead of a leather wrap? Or at least thicker and rounded metal and then leather around that?

They aren't Klingon weapons. Those are Chinese weapons. :)

The reason I say they remind me of Klingon weapons (not that they are Klingon weapons because they're obviously based on the Chinese weapons you linked) is because of the lack of practicality regarding the hand grip. Simply put, that grip is hard on the hand due to not being round enough. The forward curve can also make it harder to wield since the hand naturally grips either a straight handle or a backwards curve better.

The in game Sharktooth claw and its higher tier counterparts show the preferred grip much better.

Tarantino approves!


BTW, that marrakesh/maraketh scythe-axe- reminds me some undying ninja from an endless anime of ninjas.
:p

really wish they would listen to the community a bit more about some things. Maybe the new wand should implicit should be aimed around wanders considering the current wands spell damage sucks in most cases and rolling a wand is already a big chore.

most of the implicits on the weapons seem ok at best. the new bow will just get shut down by a harbinger bow no question... I cannot remember the last time i saw a bow build that was not crit based.

4% aoe is kinda meh.

the scetper and 2handed axe are a step in the right direction but the rest will prolly never be considered top tier IMO

some feed back on why they ignored the community request on some of this stuff would be awesome

Lovin the new weapons, however, I need to nit pick. The "Blade Staff" is actually called a Monk Spade.

Does this mean that these attributes will be something we can roll, or are they going to be for these weapons only?

GGG watched a lot of chinese kungfu movies I think.... check the discussion in http://tieba.baidu.com/p/3700102528

That interview was two years ago! And we still aren't any closer to getting Crossbows. :-(
