These all look yummy!!
Depending on build, I will use the one associated with aimed strike. But I can imagine that the stamina restoration is crazy good in pvp. We will see! Time to save refinement points!

Mi-Ala Starbreeze : HR main. Best PVE HR out there, until someone proves me wrong. I've threatened Ghostcrawler and got permabanned at Blizzard forums.
I went mad at PL "community" in SWTOR and got permabanned.
Believe me, you don't want to see the tickets I used to sent to CCP. I got permabanned from EVE.
I was infuriated by the amount of autists in League of Legends and got permabanned. Twice.
Cryptic, here I go.
Lo and behold.
Oh hell yes, I finally did it.
Onwards to next mark.
Sad thing is, the more GS I get, the less damage I deal in dungeon runs. I pull aggro almost instantly, which leads to in-melee fights where my damage is mitigated a lot. Not to mention the messed up concept of split shot that clearly doesn't favor close combat.
Sadface.

Is it just me or does the melee rewards for the artifact weapon bdtter than the range. The only reward i see useful is the first bow with the 10% rapid strike dmg inc
I can get stamina regen with normal boons and using simed shot is best when no one is targetting you. No need to run then.
Hooe we csn get better rewards mod 5

Tell me about it. I want the rapid shot one and so far I have the split shot and aimed shot one. I hate the RNG on this.
I want the split shot one and have aimed and rapid XD
aimed is worst, that is clear...... rapid seems very good wth the xtra dmg, shame i dont use it that much awsome for pvp though... split on the other hand is the bread and butter of the class, and refilling stamina per shot can be soo good defensively.
statwise i prefer splitshot one, too much arp available already ls comes in handy.
but i do have some doubts about split vs rapid, coz with the red draconic enchantment fast attacks are better and getting extra dmg + the 600 dmg proc sound very appealing.... but i tend to like my huge aimed shot crits.

Wait, what? The choice for artifact weapon is made for you? GTFO! If so, I have never heard of such a preposterous method of obtaining gear. I mean we're already playing the RNG game with the artifact belts, now there is a big chance we have to spend more currency in case we don't get the weapon we want??? As if the final 2 boons in ToD wasn't time-consuming enough I fear we will be doing dragon dailies until next year!!!
Our pain is self chosen.
The most important thing in life is to be yourself. Unless you can be Batman. Always be Batman.
I'm so conflicted. I told myself I really don't care which one I'll get, well I got the split shot one. I like the stats on it, but the power on it is kind of meh for me, I rarely run out of stamina (I don't dodge a lot as it's unreliable for me) and when I do, I don't usually want to use split shot as I'm probably swamped my mobs at that point.
I wouldn't want the rapid shot one as it gives armor penetration and I only use rapid shot in some situations. Aimed shot one on the other hand would be great for me, I think, I always have aimed shot slotted. I usually get two aimed in before the mobs reach me and the extra speed would probably allow me to get further away between shots. The stats are also nice.
The problem is, I have one artifact weapon and blue mainhands saved up for it. I don't think I'm able to get another dragon bone and gem before double refinment weekend ends (I'm out of town and unable to play until Sunday night). So I guess my choices are either to refine and use the weapon I got or let the double refinement opportunity pass and try to get the aimed shot weapon.
Split blows. Especially if you have the boon that gives you 500 extra power depending on how little stamina you have left. And guess which artifact weapon fell out of the box for me...
Split.
Anyway, new box arrives after maintainance tonight so plz god let it be the rapidshot one. Otherwise I'm gonna stick with my CN weapon set and just save my quest items for the dungeon and the boons.
Random. Like you go to the shop and just say "hey, surprise me."
Really dumb.
No idea what my toon is now.

SoB you mean I have to wait something like 20 hours for my totally random (and probably least wanted) artifact weapon once i have the mats..? Best. News. Ever.
The mindset behind some of these decisions is astounding. If only Cryptic dragged out Mods like they did campaign grinds - every bug in the game might actually be fixed then!
I cba about the Aimed or Split bows - I only want the Rapid one. I can see it eventually arriving in my inventory sometime next year :P

Well my artifact weapon box will be open in a few hours, hoping for the rapid shot one. This will be my first go at it, if I don't end up with it I doubt I will try again anytime soon. RNGesus always seems to smite me for my sins and I really don't think the frustration will be worth it. I will most likely refine it anyway being x2RP weekend. Using one other than rapid shot may be a nice change on my loadout for fun though. We will see how it goes!
Well, I did actually get the weapon of choice first time go, the rapid shot bow. Will see how much I can refine it during x2RP weekend here. Good luck on your arti weapons all!
now i have legendary arti weapon and draconic axe as off hand.
Is that best main and off hand in model 4 for HR now?
The off-hand is all about what stats we are lacking. I'd still go for the Fomorian Fabled Blades as it has the highest Power of all the off-hand weapons. Draconic has too much ArP overflow and not enough power of my liking.

Will these be like the class artifacts..? ie. If you have an alt of a different class, you can claim a belt on any character..?
Depends on how easy to get these!
Man, you act like all of us are going to magically just pull these things out of some <font color="orange">HAMSTER</font> somewhere.
actually they will, since everything is buyable with cash in this game.
Do tell...where do I go to buy one of these with $?
To the zen market and open the lockboxes with keys from the zen market
what dyes and upper fashion is this?
