Guild Wars 2

How long will Braham & Rox weapon skins and tunneling tool be on the gem store?

This has already been asked. It’s even on the first page:
https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/bltc/Are-the-new-weapon-skins-temporary-Pickax/first#post1930726

I may have missed it, but I’m not seeing any reference to the Braham & Rox weapons on that page.

I too would like to know if the Braham & Rox skins are temporary and if so, when will they be removed. Here’s hoping someone with reading comprehension (i.e. NOT Lonewolf) actually bothers to read this thread and provide a useful answer.

Would you like some salt and pepper for the foot you just stuck in your mouth?

They all say limited time in game, if they are limited time. As for how long they will remain I would guess until the dungeon is over, maybe longer, but I wouldn’t bet on that just in case. At the very longest I would say June 1, but again that doesn’t seem likely.

I challenge you to actually follow and read the thread you provided. It has only three responses, one of which is a link to the “hot new releases” page on the GW2 site which covers the mining pick, the new dyes and new street clothes. NOTHING about the Rox/Braham items.

You can take the self righteous path all you want when you are right but in this case you are not.

While I’d like to believe that the items are now permanent additions to the TP I’d much rather get a firm answer from ANet so I can plan accordingly.

You do realize, I created that thread, right? I asked if the “new weapon skins” (meaning all skins since the notes said “weapon” inclusively) were limited. I also asked, the second question, about the pick, which that part was answered. However, my first question about the skins, which was in the title, did not get answered.

I’m not taking any path. I’m just simply saying that the question had been asked already. I think you maybe walking down that path by taking the whole thing so seriously.

Good luck with getting answered. You’re more likely to get an answer from posters, non-officially. I did read a thread on this page that indicated them as limited btw, but again, that’s unofficial.

As a quick sugestion… please add an animation to the tunneler where your character stands in a heroic pose while pointing the drill upwards… (I just want to yell “THIS IS THE DRILL THAT WILL PIERCE THE HEAVENS!!!”)… that’s the one thing that would pull me over the edge to purchase it..
