Heres A Thought..

What're people going to do once there best artifacts, such as GoV, Eirene's, Battler, Malice and all the others become unusable by durability loss?.

 

[Chimaira]

Give them back to scholars and receive a new one and start to lvl it from 0 again I spose

if thats possible that is

Well they cant really let artifacts get wasted. imo

 

[Vladamir]

I agree, it's totally unfair for players to spend x amount of hours farming the scrolls, xx amount of hours farming for the artifact, and xxx amount of hours levelling it, all for it to be gone in a number of monthes . But then again, it is mythic

Then you bring an alt to farm it again and redo the process

 

[Zebolt]

You can only activate an artifact once with the same char afaik..

Then you dont do it. Not that a char is unplayable without artifacts. An easy way to save your equip would be to use one leet set in RvR and one less leet for PvE. If you are a hardcore player, you should be able to afford that. If you arent a hardcore Rambo-guy, then you shouldnt worry about the items durability either. Play somewhat smart, and save your more valuable equip for times when you really need it. And dont bash doors and mobs with it, and you should be able to keep it for a looong time...

What lel said really 1 set for rvr 1 for pve...

But! If things do start to die then that really is endgame for that person... if a couple of months down the line my special item dies after working so hard on it, thats time to leave tbh.

Maybe stabbing in the dark here but I think mythic have kinda shot themselves in the foot with artis and dur...just my opinion

There should be a special npc or so that you take your old artis to and have the dur replenished at a reasonable cost 200g each maybe.

Think they will sort that some time. else the community WILL go mental

Will probably buy Catacombs, where there'll probably be new items needed to get the utmost of our characters

Of course, we know nothing about it, so it might not bring any extreme items, and our artifacts may not last that long as it has only just been announced.

But if my items wear out (which I doubt they will being a supportclass) I'll quit

 

[Shike]

could just farm for some new stuff with essential increases in the high dungeons I guess. Or go back to the old stuff, noticed that it really doesnt make a really big diff since im running around in kinda gimped gear atm and still manage to kill stuff anyway.

 

[Ilum]

I've lost 1% on my staff on a bout 4 hours of RvR. So I guess it will last me about 520 hours.

feel sorry for the classes that get alot of wear on stuff, bd's, necros and stuff :<

I think artis shouldnt start to degrade till they get to level 10. For a lot of classes (like necros) the PvE grind on them will pretty much finish them off by the time you have leveled them.

HAVEN`T it already ? :wub:

 

[InertiaSlave]

By the time most people have gone through a couple sets complete with artifacts, so there are no good options left, all the special bonuses might be SC-able. And alchys might be able to put particle effects on crafted weapons, and we'll have gemcrafting too.

That was a joke btw, in case you couldn't tell

Anyways, they seem to think everything has to be an upwards spiral to keep people interrested, so new, stlonger classes, races and items will come along in a more or less timely fashion at any rate
