What you thinking about it..? Trader for Maelstrom weapon
10 weapons for 1 (at choice which one need).
Because when got 10 two hands sword in turn.. it's not best way to get what you need.

    Before transmutation I would say that the function you are proposing was the most needed function in the game.

    Now I think it's fine as it is.

    You can't transmute if you don't get weapon in the first place
    I'd say 1 for 1 for if I'm able to complete it i do deserve the weapon of my choice and 1000 runs against an AI dosent makes you better player.

    by this logic you must get all dungeon/trial gear in 1 run?

    because you deserve?

    Personally, I do belive that gold vendor should have 1 random weapon (arena perfected weapon sets) each weekend.
    Of course, the price would have to be adequate for that. Or, just bring back master weapons + other arenas weapon sets as a end-of-campaign rewards.

    Hell no, what would be the point of the arena's if you can get the gear without ever going there?

    Its already way too easy to get maelstrom weapons, no need to make it even easier.
    Just do weeklies on 2-3 char for 2 weeks and you got all weapons in 99% of the cases.

    No... just no. Everyone wants things easy. You want that inferno or bow, you run it 1000 times like everyone else

    I don't think "we had to suffer so everyone else has to suffer" is a good way to improve the quality of a game.

    Maelstrom is the only case where it's "hard" to get an item and it's nothing to do with the challenge but simply the RNG of the item drops. At least with other arenas you have four chances at the item if you're with others who don't need it.

    If you deem the reward worth it, you'll do the thing required to earn the reward.
    Even if that means slogging through content you've done hundreds of times.

    I got a inferno malestrom staff my first go. Was ecstatic. The thing I was actually after was a bow, though.
    It took what felt like 500 runs for one to drop. And when it did, the feeling of relief and excitement...it was amazing.
    Then I got a gold bow in the mail. Then I got another bow on my next run.

    If the reward is worth it to you, you'll do what it takes to achieve it.
    That's the way it should be.

    I get your point but atm you can get the monster sets that drop in vet dungeons without even being in there...

    Overcoming vMA is one of the great achievements anyone can accomplish in this game.
    If you want those special weapons you need to be good enough to held them.
    So, no trader for this.

    1000 times?

    My first completion, I got the inferno staff.
    Second completion, I got the bow.

    I guess I should play the lotto huh?

    First, it certainly won't take 1000 runs to get a specific weapon in any trait. Not even remotely close. And secondly, Maelstrom Arena really makes you a better player.
