Question: Warsoul Weapons - what are replacing Frostcover mats?

Which luckily can be obtained from anniversary packs which are conveniently located in the in-game boutique.

To access the boutique simply press O on your keyboard while in-game.

It would be cheaper to buy from people in game than it is to buy the mats from chipping to get much of the gear.

Yup, pay money, and you become full of epicness with your "I-Didn't-Work-Hard-For-My-Gear". Pay money, and you are a god. b:surrender

I beg to differ. I work HARD for my RL money. Which means if I choose to spend someon the game nad get some stuff, its still been worked for! Don't be so quick to trash people that work hard for their money.

So... back to the OP's point... will there be a way other than chips to make the necessary items?

For those you who forget while yes you can use RL money to get chips for your gear. You can also do cube runs for those same chips. Now I do understand this would take a considerable amount of time but no use of RL money. And you get your gear.

For the symbolic amount of $27,000 you can buy a warsoul weapon from chips that you can get from the anni packs.

So, go get your credit card and get a warsoul weapon

real life work != in game play

daddies credit card isn't a legit way to PLAY the game.

notice the key word there. you're not even playing, you're paying and wasting time.

If I understand properly:

Frostcovered materials have been replaced by frostcovered gear.

And, since you no longer need hundreds of the things your chance of a gear drop is significantly lower than your chance of a material drop was. (But their gear drop chances have not become proportionally lower -- if you do frost runs your squad has a real chance of getting a nice piece of gear every few runs.)

The materials themselves were used as the combine material for the warsoul, not the frost item it made. By removing the materials and shifting it to item drops, they've effectively eliminated that method of making the warsoul pieces.

Hasn't someone done the math, and found it would require about 22,000+ DOLLARS just to buy their way to having one warsoul weapon. Honestly, if someone wants to spend that much on a game for one item, they can have it. As well as the negative stigma that will see it wasted for the most part, at least on PvE servers. The guy who bought his warsoul is coming? PK flag removed. PK party going on, everyone takes off and waits for him to leave. Be interesting to see how long someone lasts having a weapon that leaves them unable to pk anymore. Though people on PvP servers would still be screwed.

Does it matter? It's a legitimate option to get things seeing as how the game providers offer it for money. If someone is in the financial position that they're able to spend $22,000 for a game item and want to does that make it wrong? That same person could also buy the same house, car, boat, computer, tv, entertainment system, or anything else for less work (or a nicer one for the same time spent). Why do you accept that in one circumstance but not in another? If you're going to blacklist people on PvE servers that pay money, to what degree are you going to hold to your believes?
Are you going to accept it only if they spend an amount of money you approve of (a portion of your disposable income)?
Are you going to accept it only if they spend no more than an arbitrary amount you decide such as 15/month?
Are you going to accept it if they only spend money on aesthetic items with no gameplay effect?
Are you going to accept it if they buy gold with coin (purchasing gold while making someone else pay the bill)?
Are you going to accept it only if they buy specific items you approve of?

If you've ever used or grouped with someone using a dragon orb, guardian angel, esoterica, inventory extention, bank extention, herc/nix, almost any mount, any flying mount but the freebie, socket stone, anniversary pack gear (oh hey... that includes flawless shards), jolly gear (hmm... oracles, scarlet fruit, beautiful shards), charm, or reset note, you've already invalidated your argument as you've accepted people that either pay cash shop users to get ingame advantages, or pay cash to get ingame advantages. The only difference is in the amount spent which has no bearing on if you're getting an advantage... only the degree of the advantage.

If people want to spend their hard earned money on this game, seriously be my guest. Its your money, your choice.
What i believe alot of players are saying is that while the CS players can get lots of good stuff from spending $$, it should be a form where they can progress in the game easier or faster than those that do not use the CS... but not IMMEDIATELY.
You can allow CS players the advantage but making these items so easily available is pushing the boundaries.

Pay money?

It takes:
$18486 US to make
277290 Tokens to make
308100 Mysterious chips to make; You also need an additional 6.75 Billion coins to craft them.
700 Warsoul pieces to make

1 Warsoul weapon with 3 of 6 random attributes.

Even if you make one there is a good chance you wont get any mods worth making people fall to their knees in awe. For $18k irl I'd be wanting a weapon with epic graphics that kill stuff like tt bosses just by being within 100m of them automatically. But then I'd be bored with the game if it were so easy.

I might be wrong but cant one break donw TT mats at the big guy in archo , and he will turn them INTO the mats for a warsoul device right, look I know it might be a LONG time to get but not out of the realm of doable... one would hope.
PLEASE , let someone buy 22K of stuff from this game, OMG I will thank them for singlehandly paying for all the updates that year ^^ LOL

You guys act like warsoul weapons are who knows what.I'm not saying they are crappy but lets be honest look at them only one or two have actually good bonuses and not even those are worth the money.Just craft lvl100 gold oht equip till you get the stats you want and make all +12 that would be much smarter than getting a warsoul weapon.
It's the same as those that spent thousand of dollars to get lunar and then they get owned by someone who has tt90 or tt99 gold.Good for PWI's pockets but noobs for me.

As pretty as all that was, it has no bearing on me. In the very beginning, I said who cares if they buy it. The rest was using common sense and paying attention to forums. People complain about even getting the things from anniversary packs already. On a PvE server, do you honestly think they would be fine with someone getting a warsoul weapon as well. Or do you think they'd go the route I mentioned, and shun the person. I'm betting on the 2nd route, and is why I wrote that. Heck, I was even talking about plural in my post, so how the heck did it get taken as me personally doing that?
