Well the essence blade was removed (the one that is just like te elser blade but adds 1000 health skill)... it was in just long enough for the world monopolizers to get it, while an even greater impassable gap is now made between top clan and everyone else. Great work OTM. Way to cater to the monopolizers of the worlds with every step you take.

Lol it's funny because it's true. I was gonna buy the Life Blade yesterday (its like primal blade but with heal skill) but i desided to wait a day and now its gone :( an the primal blade is not worth the gold at all on my opinion.

The last 2 days window shopping we compare all weapons , the less desirable was the sword of life ,because of damage & stats combination over all. the only good attraction was the skill.

But if any player had info about the skill( beta) will buy it off the bat ,but the normal player will take time before making a large purcharse without knowing the skill and the game in general.

This is another clear example of a item being a common items , the are made OP by removing it out the game. OTM do us all a favor and introduces back in the game the way will not be OP. please if anyone can buy it nobody will think is OP.

At least one of my clanmates had one.
Afaik we beta testers got no inside info that this was being removed -- I've been off of forums for many hours today due to work but I don't see any warning about it in the beta forums. So those who were lucky enough to buy quickly lucked out.

I sooooo wish I had bought one yesterday. I assumed I would have time. Grr

Heres a little bit of advice; the essence blade is terrable. I had it refunded b4 the patch and im not too upset at all. The skill was basically useless because of the extreamly long cooldown, the dmg was worse than a silver blade and the stat bonuses only kept u alive longer so u die slower. The only players that will like this wepon are the collectors, let them spend an outrageous price for it. For the normal player this wepon (and its replacement) are the worst choices you could make when buying new lux.

YAY!!! OTM created another camo charm!!! Well ok it's not as op as camo but they have done the same thing, allowed a handful to acquire an item then remove it, causing the original item to sky rocket price wise in the market. The thing that gets me though is that the blade isn't even op... Its an acceptable lux item and the only thing that made it good was removed for some reason creating yet another useless lux item that will probably not be purchased...
