Epic Weapon Appearance

Mrylokar · 02-10-2008, 02:09 AM

Who else here is saddened and let down by the extremely mediocre appearance of our assassin epic? I know I am. A small dagger with a little bit of engraving. Looks like something youd find out of a cereal box. When you compare it to the warlock dagger and the Troub axe it looks like ours was done last minute by an intern. Seriously why does our epic look so bad?!?!

Raid version graphics just add particles.

Still particle effects can change the overall look pretty easily.

I don't see it making this weapon look any better. Maybe worse, though.

Would u mind posting a screenshot of the appearance? Sorry if it has been posted before, but I just started skimming thru the forums and I am not able to log into the game atm (on holiday with crappy laptop hehe).

YOu sure you dont want us to break your heart with it? :P

Hehe come on, I can take it ;). I've been playing EQ2 from release on, so it wouldn't be the first disappointment ;P.

Don't say I didn't warn ya :P

yea, we pretty much got screwed over, i mean, it's a fucking tiny dagger. i was expecting at the bare minimum a short sword, though my dream epic would have been a katana/short katana type of thing. just looking at the dagger, it's way too small to realistically be of any use at all. you'd have to be more or less arm's length away from anything to actually be able to use it, and against bigger enemies like dragons, even if you managed to stab them chances are it wouldn't be able to go deep enough to do any real damage. sad really, but at least not as bad as the coercers

.

now compare it to the warden epic, that thing is fucking cool. or SK, or dirge or guardian. any of those would have been better than what we have. if they made the blade quite a bit longer then it might be ok.
