Yea isnt it POINTLESS????

Not really. Seeing as upgrading stuff would, *gasp* Make it better? From my understanding, the 'normal' gear at that level is good enough, and the upgrading apparently rewards you for refining and sharding (not as much material needed, if I'm reading this right). So you just spend time on those items like you normally would, and then when you reach level 100 you have a nice little reward waiting for you.

You don't have to be able to 'upgrade' something the second you get it. That would be POINTLESS in itself, IMO.

I think its the other way around. If its been refined and socketed you will need more mats to carry those over, but if unrefined etc you will not need any.

But thats just way I read it so maybe wrong

Recasting your equipment without these materials will still upgrade your equipment to Palace of Nirvana gear, just without any of your existing attributes/refinement level/sockets.

I bet it will be like tt for opening, however all the gear will have lv 100 reqs.

If not it will be a nice market for the lvl 1xx 's, selling upgraded gear to those than cannot enter ( all depending if it changes items reg lvl ofc )

I can't confirm that, what you see is what I have at this point.

The main reason for this addition is mainly because.... They want you to play more, now hear me out.

1. This addition means more play hours in order to hit lvl 100 in order to get a godly weapon
2. Play more= more charms, more potions, money fashions, mounts,etc
3. More charms= more people buying gold to capitalize on the excessive need of gold to buy different things
4. More Gold into the game= stabilization of the gold prices, making it so they need to buy more gold in order to break even i.e gold will go down from 600k to like 100-300k, which means they need to buy more gold to "break even" with their previous gold price of 600k.
5. Stablization of gold economy= A better, larger stream of gold/money flow going into the game and essentially into the Gms Pocket.

So in essence, this addition has produced more of an income for the gms then the anniversary packs will as well as bringing back the older players in order to get these weapons. So pretty much with all the new Mounts, Fashions, charms, teles, guardian angel sells, etc they bring out the more money they get simply because the game is getting played longer.

Idk about you guys but I think this is a win win for everyone XD

Vinat - Sanctuary

so does tt90 and tt99 recast to the same things?

b:bye Hi Musey

Cryxtal - Sanctuary

yea a lil confusing !
1)Since lvl 95 Helm of Holy / HeavenRageBoots are not lunar , so we cant upgrade these? Even though these 2 are uber high armours?

2) So for the re-roll thingy . Lvl95 Lunar weapon (Purgatory) gives -6% channeling. Means we can reroll that stat to try and get something else? or we can get more stats ON TOP of the -6% channeling?

Or issit just plainly like what u say "In terms of statistical differences, weapons will have no difference other than appearance" <-- then nirvana is useless

Oooh, okay, did read it wrong. xD Either way, doesn't seem like there's much issue. I mean, you can carry it over anyways. Making it 90+ would just be like, "Oh, okay, lets all get all these mats and insta-upgraded weap. No need for waiting."

Meh, just saying, there's no real reason for anyone to be complaining about this-- what's the point of an expansion if you get no new awesome stuff? What were they gonna do, make more level 70 weapons?

Sashera - Sanctuary

level 100 entry only? naww b:surrender
so wait... if we can only enter the cave at level 100... whats the point of making as low as 90+ gear upgradable?
unless im missing the point here and some lvl 90 gears are better than higer levels...

Conavar - Heavens Tear

Meh Its not quoting properly so nvm

Oni_utsuki - Sanctuary

tt99-gold? or all tt 99?

Monoftalmus - Heavens Tear

Oki wait a min..

1-tt99gold weps only or green ones too.
2-I am losing the TT99 Armor stats if I recast that right?
3-Is the level of the armor and weapon changing above 100?
4-To keep existing attributes/refinement level/sockets, We just need more of the Items from Nirvana? And if we have plain gear we just need few less items?
5- two random additional attributes are the attributes that come as if you have tt99 set additional attributes? And how many parts of armor you need to get there?

Ok example

TT99 Set gold (since 99% of 100 players have tt sets)
It gives this bonuses:
2 items give Attack interval -0.05
4 items give Vitality +15
6 items give Critical +3%

Now when we upgrade 2 4 and 6 parts to Nirvana gear how do bonuses work compared to tt99 set? And Do WE Lose the TT99set bonuses or not?

If it turns into a diff gear, with diff. lvl, and diff. grade lv and diff. looks..........i would assume its a completely diff. item already...

Monoftalmus - Heavens Tear

but how many parts you need to get 2 recast ones? is it 1 2 parts? 4 parts?
all 6?

also wth cant we upgrade event robes.. wth is that grrrrr i have both tho lol

[IMG][/img]Q: What is the level requisite to enter the Palace of Nirvana? How many times can I enter per day?
A: The requisite level to enter the Palace of Nirvana is 100. You are granted three entrances per day, but players can trade their Bounty Hunter and Crazy Stone quests for another two chances of the Palace of Nirvana entrances.

well that makes it challenging....... wat if there was four squad wipes >_>
do we respawn at the beggining ,like frost......... or do we go the nearest town >_>

and then wats the point of not letting 9x in there, since the robes and helms can be recasted >.>

since it lvl 100 req......ummm...... y not add lvl 100 lunar xD

Tombvixen - Heavens Tear

hmm purely lvl 100 dungeon? there isnt nowhere near enough lvl 100s in the game to merit this. so what we have to look forward to is a month or 2 of dbl exp drops and sp just to get enough 100s? yeay like the markets arent screwd up enough. ty pwi for another fail decision (losing old frost). yes im flamin and i do not care .......its stupid PERIOD

Qwentomec - Heavens Tear

Wait it says TT90 Twilight temple, Headgear and robes.

The following are capable of being recast:
Level 90 – Twilight Temple – Headgear and Robes

This new system gives magic classes the edge and leaves heavy/light armor uses behind? What?
How is that fair o_O

Robe = Cape b:chuckle

im smelling LOTS & LOTS of oracle noobs ........................... >_>

Qwentomec - Heavens Tear

But robes are also arcane armor...as well as the capes. That is in their description =/

Jhaernyl - Heavens Tear

Can see it being bad on PvP servers if the dominant faction(s) have most of the lvl 100's and only them being able to upgrade their gear ...........

"Robes" is what arcane armor is referred to by players. Officially, robes are capes and arcane armor is...well...arcane armor.

Centetric - Lost City

no our chests are called arcane robes ...............and capes are called robes

espionis

Okay, wait, so does that mean if your weapon is one socket, the upgraded weapon will also be one socket? The only way to get 2 socket weapon is to have your base gear 2 socket, or socket the new weapon costing like 20k socket stones? Is there any way to randomize the sockets instead of try to keep it what it is? Also, are refines / gems / sockets kept through the same materials, or different materials for each of the three? (Aka, refine mat, gem mat, socket mat) or is it just "Mat".

Sorry for rant, I'm extremely uncomfortable with just having a 1 socket wep for the rest of my life.

Ceshiari - Sanctuary

O.o

Dont you high levels know that TT helms and capes are maximum level 90? Considering there is only ONE TT cape available atm, which favors either LA wizards or LA clerics. Mind you, in the xpansion site, they did mention that they will be releasing new armor as well. So therefore, that would explain why lvl 90+ gear can be modified. Not to mention, there are TONS of people who have TT90 gear that is pimped out, because of its +vit stats.

This system will essentially allow for many people to have more of a variety of gears, instead of everyone having the same ****.

Im really psyched, I cant wait to see how it will all work b:victory
