Back in my day, we only received one weapon and you could not "save your game" between stages. Nevertheless, big accomplishment for you and congratulations.

Ulo✭✭✭✭You're lucky, hopefully with Clockwork City transmutation system you won't have to run it hundreds of times to get that perfect trait, just hundreds of times to get the weapon you want. Thats how VMA rolls.0 -

Try not even having a 100% chance to find a weapon waiting for you in that final chest. And even then, destruction staff drop-rates were skewered to be extremely low on top of everything else. Inferno staves especially. The sharpened inferno staff ended up literally becoming a myth, and something held sacred both on these forums and in-game.
... Years later, and I still have not had a single sharpened lightning or sharpened (or precise) inferno staff lay before me in that final chest or weekly reward. . .Edited by Ch4mpTW on October 21, 2017 10:04PM1 -

Congratulations. No worries. Just a little bit of dust in my eyes is all. I won’t cry. Nope. Not a single tear.

Took me around 250 runs I believe for the sharpened inferno, lightning came around 150. Hell it took me over 50 runs just to get a bow (powered)... Needless to say, got the sharpened inferno about a year ago when the double drop event was on. Literally have not done another run since.1 -

Thanks I am already at stage 9 again with 4 lives left but had to run. I am amazed how much easier it is after you finally beat it. I think it's definitely mental at times0 -

You lucky ***. I hadn't seen a weapon until my 4th run, which was a Sharpened Resto. My very first run, I got a Well-Fitted Helm of Glory!Took me around 250 runs I believe for the sharpened inferno, lightning came around 150. Hell it took me over 50 runs just to get a bow (powered)... Needless to say, got the sharpened inferno about a year ago when the double drop event was on. Literally have not done another run since.
Still lucky ***. Took me 620-ish runs for my Sharpened Inferno, got it just a few months ago. By that time I had 9 Sharpened Lightning Staffs, and multiples of every other weapon in every trait. Never had any problems with bows though. They were my 2nd most-often drop, 1st one were restos.Edited by Meld777 on October 22, 2017 1:03AMMaelstrom Arena Champion | Undaunted | Fighters Guild Victor

I know you were mad af when sharpened took that blow. Lmao. All that grinding, just for sharpened to get violated like that. Triggered isn’t even the word I would’ve felt. In fact, I’d still be bitter and salty about it to this very day. 0 -

✭✭Congratulations. I have all weapons in all trait except lighting sharpen, which is not anymore needed.
With upcomming changes to VMA weapons, i feel like stabbed in back. After spending 100 of hours, these weapons are not BIS anymore or worth dropping 5-5-2 or 5-4-2.
They still can be used but truly not worth the efforts anymore!Edited by Lord_Eomer on October 22, 2017 5:25AM1
