So, the weapons are not worth buying it?

yea i think, well unless your gonna sell them again

Right now nothing is certain about the weapons. Their stats are most likely going to be change. We are doing our best to get accurate stats for now but all this could change next week. Do not rely on these stats as we are not 100% sure they will stay.

Hello everyone.
Im new and a bit of a lurker in here ;-) (shy, I guess). I haven't got much experience with BD yet but I got a taste of it at this plot. Im happy that I looked into this site before I bought any of the prices. I have 31,045 points to make with (master chemist) and because of your advices I will wait to see if TNT will change them. So thanks for your advices guys
-and thanks for this great site
Greetings

Should I wait before getting my prizes then till they upgrade and see if I should get them or just get some of he other prizes right now?

THe econotorium (http://www.econotorium.org/blog.html) is advising all people to chill for a minute on prizes.


Without upgrades, id have to think the books/plushies/etc are a better value for your points ,as alot of people chose weapons that right now look like striaght junk.

I wasn't a battledomer for previous plot prizes (which I really regretted when I bought my RotL). A lot of people are posting about potential upgrades for the new plot weapons and I was just wondering if this happened with any previous plots?

Thank you for all your help.


Sorry - I've just seen a post I'd missed about LDP prizes not working when they were released. I guess upgrades would work the same way.

Why Didn't I know anything about that blog? ._O

the paradox Wrote:You'd think that even with easy points, there'd be ONE 8-icon dual duty in there. I mean, People got *full* physical blockers for just playing a ton of yooyuball in the Altador Games; and while this may not have been as button-pushy, I think that the cane and the lamppost should keep their defence and at least go to 4 phys/4 light for the cane, and maybe 5light/4phys for the Lamppost? Goodness knows I can pick up a 9 icon weapon for less than 65k these days..

I got the cane, and I had hoped beyond hope it'd be a 9-er..boy was I disappointed. Oh well. I pray TNT upgrades, if not the damage than make one of them an all blocker, maybe an all-earth, since they already did an all-dark and an all-physical. But that's probably gunna fall flat, that dream.

How many serious players actually participated in the Yooyuball Tournament? I know I didn't (go figure I play one "practice game" that would have netted me at least a Trophy had I done it two days later, and never touch it again). It's not a surprise that TNT is specifically not repeating the LDP Ring of the Lost occurrence, since players are expecting it (and very foolishly, at that). (Someone feel free to link me to the full details behind the Prize Awards/etc, since I didn't follow it except to find out what weapon-prizes originated from it.)

Look at the costs of the Items compared to how many points we got. There's no way TNT's releasing anything godly in that pile of weapons, even if they're currently weaker than they should be. Give two to four of a full-blocker to each person that seriously participated? TNT's made some poor choices, but that one would take the cake. (Then again, there's a reason I've been stat-cranking and not worrying at all about my set for the past year, minus the two weapons I picked up for the ToW battles, which I almost didn't need to hit the 30K point total I got. Definitely not if I'd done the Potions portion that was worth 8K points.)

That said, it's a shame TNT isn't releasing an eight-icon dual-duty in this batch of weapons, or another single-use grenade like the Shooting Star Muffins we got at the Advent a couple months back. I'm still waiting to see what the weapon stats finalize out to, since the ones posted aren't matching up with what IDB has down in the Database. A seven-icon dual-duty wouldn't hurt anything right now. I'm actually a tad disappointed, now that I've said seven-icon dual-duty, that TNT doesn't just re-release some of those as plot prizes, since they're likely never to see the light of battle again.


You know, reading over the Creeping Shadow Hammer's description, unblockable weapons would be a really neat idea for the BD.


Edit: It's suddenly bothering me, in hindsight, that TNT had a "cap" for wins against the limited Plot Opponents. If these are the final prizes, what's the problem with some people getting more points? Simply to break the Plot to be equivalent to the battling (or rather, a little higher)? The only prize I can see that would take immediate notice is the Ghost Paint Brush, which is surviving this flood fairly well, considering.

it seems that accursed mittens will attack an random numpre of physical icons as after 100 test if seem it doing everything from 1 to 8 icons not confirmed though

EWW @ weapons..yeha...i dont want to spend my points first..I'll just wait TNT to upgrade the weapons..if the weapons attacks stay the same after 2 weeks..then..umm 2 pbs..B)+ some others stuff..
