Rant response...
Nov. 30th, 2007 09:57 pmBackground: ANet had a promotion for a GW Bonus Mission Pack - if you spent more than $30 in their online store between early July and the end of Oct, then you would get a set of bonus mission stuff with some unique rewards come Nov. The promotion was slapped in huge letters on the login page of the game with links to the info so I don't see how anyone could have missed the info on how to qualify, etc. Now that the BMP has come out and the people who got it are waxing poetic/gloating over the pretty rewards from the bonus missions, the forums have started to overflow with vitriole/flamewars from the people who didn't get the BMP for some reason or other. After reading some of the same old arguments over and over, I thought I'd vent my response here...
( caution: rant )
Finally, on a lighter note, here's a compilation snagged from a forum on the reward equipment from the bonus missions (the BMP should be available on both accounts, I think). They're all max level, blank inscriptions, auto-customized to user. I like the skins for the Tengu weapon line. The Tengu staff reminds me of Tripitaka's 三藏 (was that what it's called?). The Undead spear reminds me of a 方天画戟. And the Tengu scythe & hammer looks vaguely CLAMP-ish. ^^
