Welcome to Gaia! ::

Yes, yes. The collectables are here, and as normal there will be a huge upsurge in people using them.

Personally, I do like the wings of the goddesses. It is interesting to see several faiths represented, even if it is a bit much for a collectable. Personally, I love Japanese culture so seeing the cranes were a lovely treat. As for the metallic Egyptian wings, Yoder, they are supposed to look that way. Art that survives from that era of history doesn't look very flowing, all very gaunt and angular- it was the style of the time. Oh, and yes- shiva does have six arms, but I can't say if she was the only one . . .

The armor has my attention, but that is just because I love both dark/goth looking things and mideval things as well. This happens to be both. The question becomes, just how many are required for a full set? Shown is Arms, Legs, Helm, and Pauldrons that include the waist. I can only assume that at least one more is needed for the breastplate.

Looks like I am gonna need another $20 this month. sweatdrop

Polearms, hell . . . let's go one further. I want a GLAIVE!!!! ninja

*looks to Sporkiness* Nani? What hair are you wanting?! The flame hair is just the icon for all the elemental hair sets. Get one, and it does all eight.

Six . . . somehow I wish I could say I was surprised. It took that many for a full set of the Mythril. As for the armor vs the glowing points, that was a given to ahve them be the same item, but only one seems to actually have the dark energy. The rest only have points of reddish light.

Still, look for Talon to have it late next week or so. wink

Eventually I will be able to see . . . but right now, I don't have that ability.

Well, Gaia took a different approach this time. They went for tradition with the Goddess Gift (all freaking 13 versions it has), but kept the "Cool, look at us!" apporach with the Damascus Armor. I do wish that the feet and hands could be separate from the arms and legs of the Damascus Armor. The colors they choose aren't black, but more of a volcanic-rock/ashy/slate tone.

EDIT: Talon think of the difference like the difference between the METAL parts of the ice gauntlets and fire gauntlets. The metal looks very similar, but the ice ones are tinted blue, and the fire ones are tinted red. With the Damascus Armor, it normally has a gray-violet tint to it. When you choose the energy versions, it gains a gray-scarlet tint.

biggrin

So who's ready to see the millions of rich noobs go buy it and match it with the obvious things and go to the arena? smile Although that isn't as obvious, it's actually pretty good. But you know what I mean. In the arenas, there are SO many people who think their sets are really good. I like it more when people mix unexpected things and make it work great.

Mello want one or two of last months' letters? Once they get inventory back up, I have 3 extra of last months' letters.

But, of course... I had to put all my cool stuff in the inventory organizer, right Before they take it down for a hella long period of time gonk


I like the armour, I guess it's the opposite of the Mythril armour, or whatever...
I also like the gift of the Goddess. Especially the greek stuff, because My beliefs are actually based around the Greek gods... though, I'm Buddhist, as well. (figure that one out)

I'm (hopefully) gonna be able to donate this month when they decide to cash mom's check... 3nodding
