I am out of my mind excited for the feral cat skins. I cannot contain it.
No Wands :(Unless the Floaty skull counts as one & shoots death beams from its eye sockets :p
Looking forward to wielding the doomhammer.
I gave up on this game about a month ago and now I definitely know for sure the right decision was made. The only time Blizzard took with the Priest class was to make sure the weapons were damn ugly. Shadow Priest especially. All three Priest artifact weapons look horrible, the Shadow Priest weapon honestly looks like you picked a level 40 weapon skin, and said meh, good nuff. The least you could have done was made the damn weapon a staff so something halfway decent could have been mogged over it. What priest in the HISTORY of this game has enjoyed being forced to play with a dagger. Way to fail and crap the class even more.
Some of these are really cool, others are just 'meh'. Can't wait to see the variant skins attributed to the correct specs now.
Tough choices for my Dk, do I want to DW Icebringer and frostreaper or do I want to use those awesome 2h weapons? I can't wait for our class preview! I wonder what became of the relic system they showed at blizzcon 2014.
Really excited about the Artifact weapons but I would like to remind everyone the pics shown here are tmogs not the bases. The bases are shown on the blue posts on Battle.net though.
Love the concept of artifact weapons. Will reduce quite a bit of gear drama in guilds. And nice to have the "legendary" be weapons again. Cloaks were decent, but the rings dont even have the random visual the cloaks did.
Can't wait to use the Ashbringer :3
The Rogue stuff could be better
Loving the Outlaw Dreadblades *-*Keg on a stick is pretty hilarious
I like how the artifact weapon is class/spec specific because I have a 100 of every class and it will be nice to do something diffrent for each of them.
Hunter artifacts are just plain dull, as are the warrior's. But I am very hyped about the Demonology artifact, looking pretty great! Druids with the form changes are also pretty nice.
Class blogs are awesome - thank you Blizzard!
Now that I know the fury weapons are 2H, I'm more hyped than before! And that demonology artifact is just awesome :D
I really like the rapier. I am not fond of the assassination daggers though. I think they could of done better on the Demon Hunter weapons too.
I am pleasantly surprised about seeing the Scythe of Elune for Balance Druids. It brings fond and eerie memories from vanilla Duskwood, where the Scythe of Elune left a wake of terror in its path. Sven Yorgen still lives to remind us of all the things he had to go through because of the Scythe.I hope Blizzard can make all artifacts feel this powerful and ominous.
I'm really excited for the inclusion of artifacts in the game. It's a great way to share some of the lore many players unfortunately often ignore in-game.
I'm really looking forward for the Demonology item for the Warlocks.
There is so much lore to dig up with each of these weapons I want to level every dang class to see it all! Awesome job Blizz :D
