i m really not here to flame but this is really ridicolous.
the weapons proc rate is once every 40 sec.
ONCE EVERY 40 SEC.
so we have bought assets, pick, gauntlet to have those ridicolous things?
2500 damages every 40 sec. So i was really thinking to give up bonus damage of my fallen and the 2/2 bonus set for 2500 damages every 40 sec...seems worth -.-''
and i m not going to craft the set at this point. it will be the same ****.
Assets on sell.

So let s say: i hope gentlemancrush reads this.
Well, in case he stumbles on this, I don't really care if there are ICDs on something, as long as they are explicited. I can always pick another piece of equip that suits me best, but I'd like to be properly informed before purchasing something that requires millions in AD/Zen/time.
and i opened another thread for this too a while ago
I fully agree.
They MUST make DETAILED descriptions of how stuff functions before we invest.
As for the weapon sets, I think they are lower weapon damage (but other important stats as well, such as Power) than what is BiS for the class? With 40 seconds ICD, they are kinda worthless, especially in PvP, unless somebody comes up with additional info.
There was no BI weapons during mod3 beta on preview server?
we have crafted a set which was supposed to help us during this mod3. And when you could do it? at the end of the mod3 experience.
And it was ok, it was supposed to be BIS. Hell they even sold us gauntlets and picks throught the zen store. *blaming myself*
It would take you 35 days of dailies on preview + it would take forever to get BI main-hand from HE's. And to craft BI off-hand you have to farm Kessel's Retreat.
Maybe you have. Personally, I didn't think it was going to be worth it.

He's the combat designer, not the gear designer.
You could go express your disappointment in the official feedback thread from preview. The inability to preview the finished goods did prevent providing detailed complete feedback at the time, but they might still be monitoring that thread.

Well I think you should specify which class you're talking about with these.
The CW Black Ice Orb/Amulet combo is actually on par or better than the Dread Ring sets and much easier to obtain than the Fallen Dragon.
So ours is actually pretty nice in the grand sceme of things and I'll be upgrading to it as a primary.
tested on the tr and on the hr, they all have 40 sec cooldown parsing with ACT.
Unlike other classes this is probably the first weapon set for the gf that is actually better than moar defense. Sadly when the weapon is empowered to tier 3 it does not gain more base damage which you would expect to exceed tier 2.5 weapon base damage.
Yes... but the CW optional choices in other gear never had that in the first place.
So it doesn't affect us any.

Its not really,
...mostly because mages already run a ton of recovery compared to other classes and their gear is stacked with it. We tend to Soft Cap out without even trying.
I'm at 3600 without even bothering to stack any recovery at all, and do not use the other Orb/amulet combinations others do because of that.
So its very different for a CW as our gear naturally has a great deal of recovery on it without that, and adding that extra 450, while nice, only means you're starting to get some serious diminishing returns anyway.
While its nice, its only going to be minimal anyway, we may even get more out of the Proc than other classes no matter how weak it may seem.
Its looking like the Purified heal is about 1:30 CD and more of an average of 2 min...
Also, the heal is pretty pathetic considering the weapons are supposed to be BIS.
Last match:
total healing done 647k
HEALTH REGEN: 208,176
WATERS: 66,044
ENHANCED POTION: 40,000
PURITY SIPHON: 18,282
This only increased my self healing by 2.8%.... Hardly noticeable. BTW, same match the leading HR on the opposing team looked like this:
http://justpaste.it/fw4v
Total healing: 697k!!!
GrandMasters 4pc: 302k.....
IMO purity siphon needs to have the CD bumped to maybe 40sec - 1min ish.... this may make it more effective
Complaining about the BI gear would be like complaining about the Fabled set when Sharandar went live, Dread Legion once Shadowmantle arrived now we have Black Ice Gear with the Icewind Dale module which is as bad as the previous sets, I think I mentioned it a lot in the official feedback thread related to this gear.
The problem is that we, the old players, expect that once a new module arrives the new gear that comes with it must be the best! No no, these new items are a choice, not a must. For a new player must be very interesting to play every campaign and discover that each one have a different collection of items which we already have because we have been playing them one by one. I know, unfortunately, it's boring for some of us to play with the same items as usual like the AoW for the GWF, HV for the CW, etc. Let's hope that this will change with the new module, we must provide a lot of feedback once we are able to check it out in the preview server, otherwise, it's going to be the same, grinding for a gear that we won't use after all.
5th boons are also worthless.
now we all know why they push mod 4 so fast , they knew from the begining that mod 3 ill be big failure
Nice choice.
That would be fine if they were decent for all classes, at least in line with profound. They aren't even close to that, for most classes. They aren't a "choice", they are a "bad choice". Period. They need buffs. But with a new mod 7 weeks away, I feel like no one gives a ****.
Its not only incorrect..it doesnt even consider the quite big difference in base damage of the weapons.
But I doubt that I switch my Fomorian orb for BI orb for pve!
From the "Play with the Devs" session:
I just sold my extra pair of iron guantlets, that's how disappointed I am. Pity the poor guys who went all out and paid through the nose for the full shaping kit. Expect prices to fall.
Oh dear. I'm sorry that my skepticism over the zen store only tools and hard sell for BI gear seems to have been entirely justified. I wish I'd been wrong, and that it wasn't a massive cynical cashgrab. A lot of folks got a very bad deal.
