    same question. does this LEGENDARY mean that our purple mounts are not the fastest now?

    Hello everybody,

    in the news posting, there is an artifact listed -- see:
    "Artifact Provisions Pack– Refining stones are a key component used to upgrade Artifacts during the Refinement process. With this pack you’ll get a Refining Stone and Lesser Refining Stone, and one of the following: Water of Elah’zad (Artifact), Amulet of Passage (Artifact), Lantern of Revelation (Artifact), and Lesser Refining Stone" -- named the "Amulet of Passage", but the artifact is not listed in the collection system.

    Therefore it seems to be a typo, but where is it: in the collection system or the news posting?

    Thanks and take care,
    Urbs

    amulet of passage is the same artifact as the shopkeeper artifact, but apparently that was it's original name and so yes, it is a typo.

    It just baffles me that there are now FOUR ranks of mounts, 2 sets of within which have the exact. same. properties.

    You can argue, in an anecdotal way, that what makes the Emperor Beetles "Legendary" is its drop rate from the lock boxes. But really, then, what the heck is the point? Kudos, by the way, for once again discretely encouraging players to log into the game to find out what it does (or just surf the forum) to find out what it's stats are. Only slightly less frustrating than when this happens with companions, which to the team's credit, has been less frequent.

    Clearly I'm not your target audience for the mount, except for the fact that I'm a bit of an achievement hunter. Entymologist and those who enjoy some of the odder mounts can and will most likely overlook this, but rarity is just one factor to something being considered legendary, especially in an MMO setting, in my opinion. The way I'm seeing it, this is up there with PuPu: A fun novelty at best.

    I don't gripe much about the game, or try not to at least because I still enjoy it and want to see it grow, but the mount system just added another baffle card to its deck.

    Do y see any tooltip on arc? Before y buy zen? answer NO
    Do y see any tooltip on news? Before y buy zen? answer NO
    Do y see any tooltip on NW gateway? Before y buy zen ? answer NO
    I dont say this lockbox is not cool ,but if currently if y not logged into the game y cant see what y can open and if y have hope to open somthing awesome and buy brutal stack of zen to gain advatage then y think someone cheated y after y saw the first lockbox or mount.

    My suggestion to show at least what we can get before we invest much Euro or dollars ...

    No offense, and kind of moot now that they edited the page, but would you typically "invest" in, or spend money on something without knowing what you may get?

    Now see, what I would have preferred was if they put the emperor beetle as an epic mount, and the regular beetle as a purple tank companion... now THAT would have been cool!

    I'll agree with that.
