New black ice Hammerstone pick

Hammerstonr pick can mine 150 raw black ice. New art set for warlock costs 500.000 black ice. Give us at least better picks to mine this shiit, like 500 black ice from one use?

    It'd help a bit for sure with that black ice grind insanity, but I'm afraid we won't get this :|

    i agree and a lot of people would buy it for lets say 40 bucks? great profit cryptic and everyone would be buying it esp all the sw's and theres a lot of those. were basically handing you money here.

    You shouldn't have to buy anything from the cash shop to be able to get the black ice belt and cloak , the price for them both should be reduced drastically , 250000 refined black ice per item is idiotic .

    If you go with a buddy into the PvP area you get more black ice when mining from those nodes. It has it's risks, but it's worth it. Also, you get more black ice if you have the one person in a party with you that has an upgraded pick mine whilst the other one stands guard.

    I will mine for guildies/buddies as I have an upgraded pick. It benefits us both.


    Keep in mind some of these requirements for vast amounts of X to achieve Y are there to help prevent players from being able to INSTANTLY BE UBER. A time requirement, or effort needed in place helps keep it more fair.

    For what it's worth, I have 50k black ice doing nothing right now. And I haven't been to IWD in a long time!

    Mining it is not the bottleneck. Once you learn the location of the nodes you can mine BI quickly in Dwarven Valley with the existing Zen store pick .
    Refining it is the thing that needs to speed up. I have five gauntlets and BI prof guys and I can mine it *much* faster than I can refine it.

    Well, I could before IWD became an instant death zone for my main toon hehe.

    Trust me, 500k is nothing if you really bother to mine it. There is also lostmauth's set which does not look too bad for warlocks either.

    There are also nodes right next to the pvp zone (the valley map) that will give you extra black ice just like they are in the pvp zone.

    250k per pc is ridiculous, considering the alternates are 15 Linus, which you can get in 1 day with some luck (well, could - before Tiamat became instant death zone..)

    honestly I will switch to one of the Linu cloaks on my cw, because the h*** if I'm going to farm IWD again - was bored of that zone 2 years ago or whatever...

    much feedback on this was submitted on preview - ignored. ><

    So let me get this straight, for our entertainment we should mine 500,000 black ice? People get paid for doing tasks that aren't as grueling as that. I'll take a pass on this.
