Wow. Either the writing is deliberately gibberish, or designers have worse handwriting than medical professionals <img src="/smilies/8a80c6485cd926be453217d59a84a888.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />

My brother sat there for about 30 minutes trying to read those. I'm convinced it actually is some other language, one way or another. Really wish we could find someone who can read it.

<p>the fist is Bruiser. i know this because there was a dev message a while ago when the magazine pics were shown about their pic missing its scorpion tail which can be seen on that concept art.</p><p>The sword is Guardian, again due to a previous post i saw describing it as a wide bladed sword with symbols up the side.</p><p>the spear im not entirely sure, but out of the remaining unrevealed classes it only really seems to fit as Defiler.</p><p>the rod, guessing either Wizard or Illusionist.</p>

[shadowscale]

that looks like an offshoot of "doctor" text. atleast thats about what the handwriting most of my doctors used for prescriptions.

Bremer I almost spit my coffee all over my monitor!  Almost!  Hooray for hand to mouth reflexes first thing in the morning?

<p>I see 12 epics not 24.   So, I'm confused.  Are there just 12 missing?  Or is it by class not sublcass?  Meaning it's druid not warden or fury and summoner not conjuror or necro and shaman not mystic or defiler.  I hope this is wrong.  Cause that's lame.  I don't want the same thing as fury wannabe druids!  I want people to see my epic and say oh, that's a warden.  Not oh that's a druid tossing me in the same class as furies.</p><p>So, are there just 12 epics not shown here or are they in fact done by class not subclass?</p><p>For those that are new to eq2 and dunno what I'm talking about, despite the fact that the new character creation shows 3 rogues and 1 predator.  And that they split up Pally and SK.  It used to go like this:</p><p>Archetype > Class > Subclass</p><p>Priest</p><p>   Druid</p><p>      Warden</p><p>      Fury</p><p>   Shaman</p><p>      Mystic</p><p>      Defiler</p><p>   Cleric</p><p>      Templar</p><p>      Inquisitor</p><p>Fighter</p><p>   Warrior</p><p>      Guardian</p><p>      Berserker</p><p>   Brawler</p><p>      Monk</p><p>      Bruiser</p><p>   Knight</p><p>      Paladin</p><p>      Shadowknight</p><p>Mage</p><p>   Sorcerer</p><p>      Wizard</p><p>      Warlock</p><p>   Summoner</p><p>      Conjuror</p><p>      Necromancer</p><p>   Enchanter</p><p>      Illusionist</p><p>      Coercer</p><p>Scout</p><p>   Predator</p><p>      Ranger</p><p>      Assassin</p><p>   Rogue</p><p>      Swashbuckler</p><p>      Brigand</p><p>   Bard</p><p>      Troubador</p><p>      Dirge</p><p>So, u see why I am asking about there only being 12 not 24...</p>

They are keeping it hush hush, for the most part and just giving us tease pics. There are 24 epics, each for a certain class. Some people tho would not be happy unless they had a weapon custom designed for just them, period. Those same people would complain if they won a 100 million dollar lottery because they have to pay 50 million of it to taxes. Be happy people, you are getting some cool weapons. don't start complaining about them before they have even been launched.
