What’s the story with Black Lion Weapons, there hasn’t been a set since Gargoyle in October?

In any case if I can’t get a new skin perhaps some one could suggest a Great Sword skin that would go well with the Braham Outfit?

I don’t think there’s actually a schedule for black lion weapons. The last set was the Gargoyle weapons in October, before that it was Bloodstone weapons in August, Embellished weapons in July and Cavalier weapons in May.

So most likely we’ll get a new set either when the Wintersday release comes out, or in January.

It’s been frustrating me too though, I finally got enough scraps for a ticket during Halloween and decided to use it to get a weapon I like instead of just getting one to sell, but I didn’t like the gargoyle weapons and I’ve been waiting for a new set to see if they’re any better. (If not I might just buy one and sell it on the 1st day before the price drops then use the gold to buy a different skin.)

According to my records, 7 sets were released in 2016, 13 in 2015, 9 in 2014, and only 4 in 2013. In 2016, sets were released in February, March, April, May, Jul, Sep, & Oct.

This doesn’t include seasonal sets that return at appropriate times, including Lovestruck (near Valentine’s), Mad Prince (Halloween), and Wintersday.

There’s no particular pattern: sets are released for certain content or seasons, not to fit another a schedule other than what’s going on in game (or real life).

What do you recommend for a GS skin for the Braham Outfit I mentioned above, I’m using Shadow Abyss for the bone/Metal parts, Harrowed Moon (kind of like a blood moon) for the fur, and shadow gold for the clothing part?

So far I’m using the Shadow Great Sword Skin (the one that makes the blade look like black smoke).

I would prefer weapon skins that would fit the Norn Culture though.

If you’re looking for weapons that fit the Norn culture then maybe you should look at the Norn cultural weapons. There are 3 sets, 2 of which are also drops so you probably already have them but one, the Wolfborn, is only sold by a vendor in Hoelbrak for 63k karma each.

Use the Jotun Greatsword, it’s available for karma from one of the heart vendors in Snowden Drifts.

The Jotun Greatsword isn’t a part of the Norn culture though. It’s the greatsword that Jotun use. He could, I guess, role-play he got it from killing a Jotun if he wanted.

I saw someone yesterday playing a male norn wearing the Braham outfit and wielding what I think was a Corrupted Avenger greatsword. I thought that worked well.
