SoM Weap Identification - shall we wait?

Lilka · 15-10-2009, 11:06 AM

A quick thought. If someone had a Second Age weapon now, should they wait until after the launch to identify it, when the best legacies are going to be more likely to show on the initial identification, or will it make no difference (ie, the legacies are perhaps already chosen when the weapon springs into existance, rather than at the forge master.)

Just a thought when it comes to those cheap, unidentified weapons on the AH.

I think the legacies are randomized, so you will probably have a better chance of getting better legacies when SoM launches. But not too sure.

Legacies are chosen at identification (otherwise there will be no need to have unidentified weapons) so you better wait, on the other hand the shiny new legacies may be worse than those we have now

Probably best not to wait for weapons as after SoM you'll be collecting enw ones.

Might not be such a bad idea to wait for Items though...

Who knows, in my experience if you try and be clever and outfox Turbine they'll think of someway to make you wish you hadn't i.e. hoarding bounty quest runes

Use them now and have ome spiffy things for a few months before they're outdated
