Hrm, this LH discussion made me curious and now i wanna test a coupla things. Need an ele or warr or guard to hit the mist golems with me.

Specifically, i wanna test how much class traits affect summoned weapons. Wiki sez some do, others don't. Wanna see how far warrior and guardian gs/hammer traits go with them. Any volunteers?

In other news, I wasn't aware that you could craft ever single elemental weapon. Shame about Mjolnir, the hammer, costing +- 1 thou gold to make. New goal get!

Yeah, I started crafting Volcanus, but then changed my mind and went for Incinerator. Still want that sweet thing, though. Better than Twilight IMO

Of course I'm in. I'll be on in NA prime. I can bring ele and warrior but would need to make a guardian real quick, or you be the guardian.

In other news, I think I'll finally start carrying a GS for full sprints in WvW, which means I'll be lugging and using regularly one of each warrior weapon.

Also in sPvP yesterday there was a necro named Mahatma Condi. *bows

Please continue with your previously scheduled hype.

I've got all three. With the two of us, we can test everything.

The gs bit, you're saying that you'll carry it mostly for mobility reasons?

Just looking to finally get into this game. Anyone know a good place to buy it?

Green man gaming is sold out, and Amazon is selling it for $40. I was kind of hoping I could find it cheaper somewhere.

I hate how they do black lion weapons. It's just asinine to have to RNG keys and chests to get tickets, then stock up on tickets to get a skin.

Well, you can always buy the skins directly from the TP. I think it would be a bigger issue if you couldn't, but I wish they added a gem option too.

Wow that sylvari hair is nice. Maybe I'll keep my current sylvari engineer instead of re-rolling now after I get the story out of the way.

Edit: Went to Dulfy for new hairstyle gallery. My entire human army needs hairstyle kits. Amberite beetle shield is hot too.
