Epic Weapon Screenshots?

Lornick · 02-09-2008, 03:31 AM

I came here looking to see some screenshots of the new epics and I see nothing! I know most of them have been completed to at least the herioc version so snap some screenshots already =p

Sapphirius · 02-09-2008, 12:07 PM

OK, I myself have not started the epics. I'm kind of waiting to get my last few levels. Hehehe. (Yes, I'm a slacker. I hate soloing with a passion, and ROK is the soloer's expansion. There's no better way to earn experience than completing those tedious solo quests because mob experience is just horrid.) However, I do have screenshots of a few of the epics as they were linked by friends of mine. I'll try to get a compelte collection of screenshots for the epics for you with dressingroom and examine window, but it may take some time.

Those poor rangers may be nerfed beyond reason, but they do get a pretty sweet looking bow.

Wardens get a wicked looking pair of blades. The problem is that it should be back-sheathed. Instead, it's sheathed on your side, so the top looks like it's sawing your arm off when you aren't fighting.

The fury epic is perfect! This has actually given me encouragement to continue leveling so I can get rid of those stupid hammers and scepters.

Monks get katars with blades that swing out when you're fighting. Bruisers are fighting with salad colanders again. Yuck. I think mages are the only ones who get staves. As soon as I track down the other links, I'll screenshot them and post them here.

I have one question... for the dual wielders (Assassin, Zerker, etc.) do we get two weapons that look the same/look good together? cause it would be incredibly LAME to have one awsome, kicka-- blade that you just cannot afford to pass up and nothing to match it with SMILEY

Haven't seen the assassin epic yet, but based on the above screenshots I can't wait.

Rainmare · 02-09-2008, 12:55 PM

dual wielders only get 1 weapon. there's no 'sets' of weapons.

Wildmage · 02-09-2008, 01:08 PM

frankly Im dissapointed their all 1 handers.

stgninja · 02-09-2008, 01:43 PM

Here is the warlock group (pretty sure its the group version) epic on a plate tank:

Forgot to add a screen shot of the epic with the normal PvE damage:

Kursa · 02-11-2008, 06:59 PM

for being "epic," I would have thought the graphics were going to be a tad but more "epic"

ah well

DwarvesR · 02-12-2008, 08:10 AM

Here are the ones I've seen linked so far:

Assassin:

Berserker:

Bruiser:

The Mythical version of the Fury one:

Guardian:

Necromancer:

Paladin:

SK:

Templar:

And I have warden too, but that's already posted above. I've seen the mythical guardian and templar ones, but haven't cropped and hosted my screenies of those yet. Guardian blade turns black and adds nice particle effect for its appearance. Templar on adds particle effect on the head. I'll post them tomorrow.

BrokenAria · 02-12-2008, 10:10 AM

As for looks (I'm not a fan of most of the stats or that there are no sets of weapons): I think my favorite so far out of all of those is the Warden's epic. It's hot. It does suck that it is not back sheathed... but it still looks bad-A regardless.

Makes me want to finally level up my Warden.

So, come on kids- who has a dirge epic screenie!?

rosscoliosis · 02-12-2008, 02:29 PM

Ermm... what's with those ridiculous delays? My highest char is only 63, so maybe I'm missing some key piece of information here...

Risiko · 02-12-2008, 03:17 PM

Is that a chain with a hook on the end of it for the Bruiser epic?

I really expected something more like fighting batons or something other then just some knuckles. Does it at least have particle effects of any kind?

DwarvesR · 02-13-2008, 07:09 AM

In re: delays -- higher level toons often approach 100 haste, so with that the long delay is only about half what is shown. This gives people the opportunity to cast spells or toss combat arts in between auto-attack swings without loss of dps. Another benefit to the long delay is that it spreads out the min/max numbers for the damage range, this creating the possibility of much larger critical hits, again increasing dps.

In other words -- long delay = higher dps.

The bruiser epic is simply a "tortoise shell with a scorpion tail." The tail flails around and is very distracting to look at.

The Fabled versions do not have particle effects. The Mythical versions do.

rosscoliosis · 02-13-2008, 02:28 PM

Ah, ok, thanks for clearing that up.

Risiko · 02-13-2008, 02:32 PM

I'm sorry, but the bruiser got jipped. That weapon is just ugly as hell.

Anybody have a screen shot of the monk epic? If it is better, I am going to go make a monk instead of continuing my bruiser.

I can't help but think the bruiser epic looks like they have a "facehugger" from the Alien movies mounted to their hand.

I wouldn't call it better, since I like the look of the bruiser epic, but it is prettier.

In regards to the bruiser epic though, I really do wonder about it having a taunt proc. Everyone knows we are not tanks.

Thats odd, it works for me. It's pointing to a thread over on the monk boards: Monk Epic, "The Hand of Serenity" has been completed! Pic/Stats inside. You might be able to see it by going there directly.
