[daga]

is that the epic weapon on top pic?

[KamidariTuibumbi]

Epic weapon quests were not in beta...  I think they want it to be a surprise for everyone.

[Xaxtionlorex]

yeah..can we get more pics/stats on that weapon? looks like a tasty new two hander.

I was on beta, not impressed with that set. Too little Defense/Parry/Block etc. and a lack of AGI. We'll have some low avoidance if we plan on wearing 7 set. I'm expecting the +melee crit to be nerfed, lol. Since in EoF right now I'm sitting on 74% spell crit and 34% melee crit. With an extra 7% melee crit I'll be at 41% melee crit and 74% spell crit, then +7 double attack coupled with GBH will end up at 19% double attack, although most will probably use Chirat/Soulfire Longsword/Axe of Unending War since they crit harder and Chirat/SLS have +4 and +5 melee crit respectively. Add a Dirge or Illu to that and it's insane.

We have to get hit to generate hate, and tbh with the higher amount chances at critting that allows us to maintain hate better. We don't have the tools the others have and until SoE gives us something to be a contender, I wouldn't be looking at this gift horse in the mouth and complaining to loudly. /shrug *edit because I can't spell.*

I mean seriously, how many times does an epic mob hit you before it dies? If it's a trash mob, about 10times. That's about 1k hate, add the damage and it's about 1.5k. That's barely more than our taunts which are also a PoS. Survivability is based on HP and avoidance, this lack of avoidance is pushing us farther away from raid tanking viability, and being comparable to other plate tanks full stop. (No, I'm not talking some easy crap like FTH.)

[melaine_dvarvensplitter]

*Digs into the typical response while I think over the caress and avoidance thing* We aren't meant for high avoidance according to the designers <img src="/smilies/69934afc394145350659cd7add244ca9.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /> We are casters in plate. Yes it's the canned answer most give.

[Dead Knight]

lol.

[Nocifer Deathblade]

Exquiste look!!

[Lord Montague]

That can't be right. Where's the pink?!?

[Dead Knight]

Hopefully on PvP where it belongs.

[Hamervelder]

Meh.  I wasn't impressed with the SK set on beta.  It's ugly.  Nothing about it says "Shadowknight" to me.  To be fair though, alot of other classes have even uglier armor.  Swashies got a nasty, nasty set.  <img src="/smilies/9d71f0541cff0a302a0309c5079e8dee.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />

[Lucifrinia]

Does anyone have pictures of the Legendary SK set or is that the "Tireless" armor?Luci
