Well the new weapons you can get through the "Weapons Keeper", and they're quite cool... Like the skin.. But dunno yet wether the Armguards you need to get them are drops or quest rewards.

All the best and latest info for the Elite NF zones is here::
http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/s...083002&page=20

The first pic gets you a Coffer, which im not sure what it is for yet. But the second pick is seperate and as you can see in the text requires an Armbrace of Truth that you get somewhere in the Elite zones...

Just to note...The offhands dont have an "inherent" +30 - Its "Of Fortitude".

The difference between "Inherent" and "from an inscription or mod" should be rightly noted about anything now that it can be either way.

however, such mods on COLLECTOR items are not salvagable. For these items, i have no idea if they follow the same rules. Then again, who would take the risk of destroying an item that takes SO much effort to get. lol. idk

Just food for thought.
cheers.

I just hope the weapons are worth the extreme effort required to get them. Judging from the Icons they look quite "meeeh". 25 is quite a number oO

The shield is animated... but to bad that it doesn't fit my armor style.

Guess that means I'll never have to get one.

T W E N T Y - F I V E!?!?!?!?!?!!?!?!?!?! THERE HAS GOT TO BE SOME MAJOR FARM SPOT FOR THOSE BUGGERS! I mean, they only introduced 4 quests. And if the armbrace (if that is really what ya get after doin that) is like the book and amulet, then if you do get those off of quests, u obviously would only get one. But yeah

(( I don't wanna have to pay a fortune for that shield >_<.

If the Spirit of Truth is the one that crafts the Armbraces... I think we just found the weapon equivalent of Obsidian armor.

I was looking forwards to seeing some of the item skins, too... it'll be a long time before anyone can afford one, unless the gems drop like Glittering Dust in FoW in the later areas.

It hasn't even been out for 24 hours yet. Its a bit premature to make speculations. Only time will tell us what we need.
