So.... Weapons or Not??
Hey guys, Menace here. I think I remember reading somewhere that the Devs will add new weapons in the second half of 2013. It is the second half already. Are they gonna be adding some weapon stuff in the Dec. 10th patch or something? I might be a bit noobish asking this question. Just very curious is all.
If they decide to add new weapons, I guarantee you’ll be hearing about it. It would be enormous news and it would be getting trumpeted around all the forums.
It’s not happening in December.
No idea, but that was the plan.
Still my guess:
Warrior: Staff (Think friar from DaoC)
Guardian: Longbow
Mesmer: Pistol and/or Warhorn
Necromancer: Greatsword
Elementalist: Sword and/or Torch
Ranger: Rifle
Thief: Mace (On and/or Off Hand)
Engineer: Hammer
80 Elementalist (RotV), 80 Mesmer (RotV)
80 Necromancer (IRNY), 80 Guardian (IRNY)
GW2: it’s like DAoC, but for the WoW crowd.

So thanks for your answers on this question. My final question.
How many weapons do you think the devs will add over the course of next few years? I feel that too much weapons will make it little too chaotic and too versatile for my taste. Anyone got a guess?
They said they wanted to do that, not that they would by the end of the year.
They said they will create new weapons for new skills and more traits aswell. When this is gonna happen? Noone knows. But i doubt that they simply will take current weapons and give them to other classes. There are more weapons like whips, fans, flays or … 2h shield? xD

We have pretty much zero information on this. From what we’ve gathered, they’ve not even begun work on such an endeavour, nor should they. We have weapon sets in the game now that aren’t up to snuff yet. In the case of mesmer, they’ve already expressed a displeasure in our scepter. We also have several traits that are not worth taking and some that are still outright broken.
Short answer: Someday, but not soon. The game just isn’t ready for more than idle discussion about that kind of mechanical expansion yet.
