The information we released about Voidwatch: The Second Chapter is great and all, but be honest, what most of you are interested in is the sweet, sweet loot. Right? Here is a video showing some of the new weapons that can be obtained. The names haven’t been finalized just yet, but the stats have been solidified. I also hear a rumor that the great katana has some hidden effect as well…Wonder what it could be…

That Sword. Do want.

(And it would make me not care in the least if Temper did overwrite Enspells.)

The GKT makes SAM relevant? That'd be a power.

Meh.

Empyrean or gtfo. TP drain on sword is probably shitty, and even if it isn't it'd have to be very high (10+) to compete with Chant. Same with GKT, hidden effect needs to be super strong to be even remotely close to Amano or Masa.


Dagger might make a good offhand if the "severe damage" is strong enough and procs often enough to warrant over Twilight.


And before anyone even tries to say it, you're far more likely to finish an Empyrean then get one of these VW drops. That's just how shitty the drop system is.

No the dagger will be better. It doesn't do severe damage, it does severe damaTe. That's something COMPLETELY new...

Re: Voidwatch: The Second Chapter (08/26/2011)

But on a serious note, it should be "damage" lol

Also, the other languages all say "damage."

Re: Voidwatch: The Second Chapter (08/26/2011)

That "Severe" damage will have to be pretty... well, severe lol, to warrant offhanding it over Twilight. Quad Attack + TP drain is pretty bitching, and the only THF that will main this are those who don't already have Mandau/Twashtar (and Twash is fairly easy to get - as I said previously, certainly easier than spamming VW only to see it finally drop but to the wrong person.)
