Send players Perfected arena weapons

ZarkingFrued

Exactly what the title says. If a player has a Vet weapon already that is being upgraded they should be sent a perfected copy. Forcing players to regrind this content for perfected versions is nearly rage inducing. I'm sure plenty of people will be against this. Make no mistake about how much coin they're gonna to make off selling carries. We have all wasted so much time grinding that content, and to change the rewards now is clearly forcing players into old content.

That seams silly, Just update the current weapons to be perfected, and create new normal weapons and code them to drop in normal VMA.

I would very much like to not have to refarm vMA. I’m happy they made the change to where noobies can get the gear, but I don’t like that it seems to be at the experienced players detriment. This is definitely not fair and makes me mildly upset.

Or at least send us transmute stones so I don’t feel like I wasted a ton on weapons I’ll never use anymore.

100%. I have an armory of golden maelstrom and Dragontstar arena weps. What's the point of making us redo old content, just because you want to make what we achieved accessible to everyone all of sudden? How about all the mats and gold I dropped Golding out my armory? Would it kill you to just respect your veteran players for once and not devalue or work?

No one is forcing you to re farm anything. The difference between perfected and non perfected weapons is a joke. Go on pts and test it yourself. If 200-300 dps is a game breaker for you then I guess gl farming.

They did it once (send weapons via in game mail) when they changed them in the past.
At some point ZOS changed 2 handed weapons to count as 2 pcs set. They also converted vMA & vDA weapons from enchantments to 2 pcs sets. So if you had a shield or dagger (1 handed part) they were mailing you the other part of the set, so you did not have to re-farm it.

If I recall, It happened somewhere around Clockwork City update.

So do master weapons drop in ndaa now? Can I pick up the few items I didn't have when I stopped grinding as its so hard to find a group? Is ndsa soloable or are there group mechanics?

OrphanHelgen

Having perfected version drop in vet vma and non perfected drop in normal maelstrom, is a decent idea. Doing it NOW tho, is a terrible idea. So yes, just upgrade current versions to perfectred, and then make non perfected drop in normal.

HappyElephant

I am at the last stage/final boss for vMA. Will I get a perfected vMA weapon if I finish this stage?
Or do I have to restart stage one vMA in order to qualify?

@RodneyRegis nDSA is soloable. Just don't go downstairs on the undead arena, that counts as a wipe even though it doesn't kill you.

The fact that a bunch of casuals can run in on brain-dead normal difficulty and obtain a weapon that has such close stats to their veteran counterparts which players have busted their arse obtaining is a joke.

I'm a casual and i think its great ,Got my lightning staff after third attempt , thanks zos best thing to come out of an update.

Mophet

Congratulations Lotus781, now grind vMA and when get the Vet version of the Lightning staff. Then destroy it so you can feel like the rest of us.

JDredd

I agree.... should have made a difference in stats. As i remember took me 10+ runs to get my first flame staff ...no way I am doing it again for little dps difference.

Now that everyone farmed the new stuff again, lets do it, send the other players the perfected versions.
