Weapons Of The Guild Rank 8 as advertised

•Resolved an issue wherein collections stated that the quest "Weapons of the Guild" would become available at "Stronghold Rank 8." Collections now states that "Guild Hall rank 16" is required. The amount of investment required to unlock the quest itself has not been increased, the terminology has been changed for clarification.

this was the patch notes I seen, it kind of upset me when I went to reading that simply because it has been advertised for the past 2+ months here on live server and as well on the test server that we would be getting Weapons @ rank 8 stronghold, Not rank 16, this is unfair and uncalled for to make such a change.

Further more The amount of investment required to unlock the quest itself has not been increased, the terminology has been changed for clarification.

^ that portion of the statement made me even more upset as a customer because of the fact >The amount of investment required < has doubled, going from rank 8 to rank 16 is doubling the requirements to get the weapons, so with that being said

I formally request this be corrected and we do get our weapons of the guild as advertised for the past 2 months @ rank 8 not rank 16, not unless your going to go back threw the stronghold and reduce the requirements of Astral diamonds for every project, because right now as it stands this is not feasible or workable.

Please correct this thank you.

    The devs advised a month or so ago about it being Rank 16. Orginally it was at Rank 8 when the max level of the Guild Hall was rank 10.

    Now it's rank 20 - so the quest is given at Rank 16. The devs said that in This Thread Here. On the original Preview server, rank 8 Guild Hall cost the same amount as the current Rank 16 - so no, they havent increased the requirement to get there.

    They corrected incorrect wording, meaning nobody got them at 8 because it wasn't intended ever to be at rank 8. It was set to 8 in the preview server because there weren't as many levels on preview. Why they changed wording in collections just for the preview server I don't know.

    They also said that the requirements in resources were the same. The preview server had half as many levels but it cost the same resources - they just eliminated the time gates for the upgrades by removing levels. So you still need X resources to upgrade, the only resource that is longer now is the time it takes.

    They actually announced on the forums that this was incorrect in collections and would be corrected months ago. Not the greatest way to handle things, but if you think they will change it to 8 because it was listed, well...see my signature for an interesting read about their keeping their word.

    Just a fyi, they still don't have this quest on preview if your GH is at rank 16.

    I hope they're not gonna say it's actually GH rank 20 later on.

    Good luck on the AD. I help with the guild, but am waiting for Underdark for that new weapon. Ensorcelled Mulhorand for me!

    So, do I understand this right? At rank 6 we unlock DF accessories (meh, already there), At rank 8 we get DF armor (decent, almost there...endless influence grind), then there's nothing of any value until rank 16 where we get weapons? Will we still only have the same few dungeons to run? This is going to get grindy and boring for a long time with no real reward.

    Pfft. Given that, as they confusingly insist on doing for every new piece of HR equipment, the weapons for HR are loaded with recovery there's no reason at all for me to get them. The awful stat allocation of new HR equipment plus the utter lack of attention to the class' bugs (except for aspect of the serpent, which to be fair they only took THREE FRAKKING WEEKS to fix) and balancing shows exactly how much they care...

    actually they did increase the requirements for it, because now instead of rank 8 stronghold it is rank 16, lol so if you do the math and add in all the astral diamonds and time consumed and other items consumed it is way more requirements just to get the weapons, also take into effect how many people did not get to see the devs state it would be rank 16 instead of 8 a month ago, lol when this whole time it has still been said rank 8 not anything else.

    so take that into effect when you say it the requirements haven't been increased lol because then that makes absolutely no sense and makes the original statement seem very misleading and deceptive, this might not have been their intentions but that's the way it is perceived.
    Lol are we on the slow side?They doubled the level numbers and lower donation the amount required for every level.You were spending 3x resources for old rank 1 and now you need x for rank 1 and 2x for rank 2.Old rank 1=New rank 2

    I'm referring to the Original Preview server release. When the guild hall had a max of 10 ranks.

    The amount of resources to get the GH to Rank 8 (on that server build), is the exact same amount to get the GH to Rank 16 on the Live server currently.

    They said it on Aug 26th, and on every forum post I've encountered since they've said it, someone has mentioned this.

    Same for CW. Best I could do on preview was a slight reduction in crit and power (vs. elemental alliance), with a whole lot of extra recovery. Hope the weapons at least fill the gap after as long as it will take to get them.

    [edit: oops..thought you were talking about DF armor]

    hahahaha another bait and switch, just like the sigil quest at lv60 w 2 boons, nope thats a typo its lv70 now, srry for your time wasted and getting your hopes up...as for the weapon at guild rank 16 wtf, as it its taking forever to get to rank 8, now we find out its not until 16? what do you think we will wait another through another 3 months of grinding to get a reward? just plain disgusted that "they" think we dont see that they are just extending the same lame grinding to instead of putting out new stuff.

    Dev 1 "o damm they are getting to the point where they will have the reward, then how are we going to keep them going? Put out some new stuff?" Dev2 "Wait i have a idea, we will say its a typo, make them grind more so we dont have to do anything productive!!" Dev1 " hell ya thats what we will do, to hell with these morons, they should fall for it"

    starting to look for another game.

    which is unacceptable simply because of the fact it has been listed ON LIVE SERVER for the past 2 months under CTRL+J As rank 8 so there is no sense in having to get to rank 16 just to get these weapons when a new mod will be out by then, this is the type of issues and misinformation

    Since it says STRONGHOLD RANK 8 having a GUILD HALL RANK 8 entitles you to what? Ignorance should really hurt. I wonder how many times some window-licker will use the term "bait and switch" incorrectly in this thread?

    In case you all havent figured it out the requirements are so high so that the guilds that have all that botted and astral resonator ad would pump it in as fast as possible into the sh coffer thinking theyre gonna hit bis again. Theres no way they were gonna allow you to hit bis at the intro to siege pvp. Its enough they allowed you the broken stamina and ap drain enchants to grief with. So cry more pay more.
