Zilla, thanks , though we had already established now can't use quiver... So they are novelty collectors weps really

Slow, high damage weapons might be good against bosses who use cloak of fire. It may also be useful for killing mages who use cloak of fire in PvP. Plus, they are fun event weapons. I don't think event gear needs to be (or should be) the best ever.

New Weapons are interesting.

Maybe not great for Mr. 150..

BUT, there's ZERO level restriction, purely strength. You could wield the dagger or axe at level 50 (?) someone do the math... and totally destroy things.

You can't use quartz til 60, diamond til 80, frozen til 125.. obsidian i don't remember.. and all the best rares are level 130.. tridents 110..

so this is a fantastic weapon for between 50-100..

how many lvl 50s can kill a lvl 140 boss though? This has been addressed in another topic but bosses should drop loot that the people killing them can use.

But you want it better than frozen? or faster? or what? if every single event boss has to drop better and better gear, then where is it headed?

i actually think limiting some of the gear abilities is a good thing as it forces us to work together.

is it a bummer that the dagger or any of them aren't better than frozen? i guess, but does it have to be to be fun to try and collect?

i'm still waiting for the most awesome shield ever to drop.. but i know it's a pipe dream. heck anything tank drop related would be nice.. but it's always dps.. aggy drops a few bracelets.. and i mean a few..

I'm not asking for it to be necessarily better than frozen, different would be nice. We already have slow strong weps and nobody uses them. Lets try to get some variety in the game. some cool procs like fairy weps would be nice. Maybe a wep that has limited stats but also gives some slight regen? what about a weapon that adds some movement speed (not a novelty wep, a dagger, bow etc.) My point is there are alot more options than fast and slow.

also, we get many more tanking bracelets on mabon than dps. thats just poor luck

Two handers aren't broken. When you have weapons this slow it negates the benefit of an offhand anyway since it is hitting so infrequently.

Offhands are only good with weapons of speed 3500 or less, and very good with weapons of 2000 speed or less.

High delay weapons is the right path for 2h but the dps of these weapons is pitiful and makes them a fail.

wow yeah !
if i take a wep i create an alt

I was delaying my comments on this 2 new weapons until i had some drops now they have see them and test it they are bad is like you put original winter king weapons and multiply by 2 meaning they will not work in the current game dinnamics , I havent able since update 3 to use any combination of gear to make a 2 hand weapon worth it to use .

Well we have more collector items but non better then a diamond 2 hand or odisian to make records .

To ppl bashing the recycle models why u have issue with they are diferent size and diferent color them previous version and the green goes perfect with es armor .
So ES armor should be just for show like this weapons are ........ Idk about using is alt to lvl up original wk have better speed and close strength Requiremenet , Idk to early to call this weapons a failure .

i agree with Fro on this. Still early to comment that its a total failure.

The Ymir ranger bow for instance could be potential in the sense that its 250 pierce with 6500 odd weapon speed. If you were to add with this haste gloves and rapid shot. Weapon speed could be brought down to 3k to 4k odd during the skill duration? While its true quivers cant be used but its really used just for regen purposes and the 100 elemential dmg can be forsaken for more dmg. It could be a good weapon for str based rangers.

As for the other weapons, I do agree with the general opinion but its kind of interesting with notion that nowadays its better to do dps with auto attacks rather than replying on skills. Again on the offhand thought, I know a good percentage of warriors and rogues who use golden blade as offhand. Those who use this wouldnt be penalized much as the Ymir items provide significant more dmg than the 200 elemential given. It probably makes more of an impact on those who use golden dagger or trident due to regen. But Golden blade wise, nah not really.

Also, since the melee classs skills (some) rely on weapon dmg, its a huge dmg boost and update 4 in theory should have some cool new items that help to increase casting skill / decreasing skill cooling.
My point is its still all up in the air at the moment. So whos know what might happen, this could potentially be the moment where by auto dps can be challenged by skill based dps builds.

As for the weapon design, you all need to cut some slack for Admin as this is meant to be short and small xmas event while They focused on update 4 which is the main prioprity
