It says we can only get1 per account so does that mean we can get 1 of each or we have to choose one?^^;

you have to choose one only per account so you only get the one you pick nothing more nothing less lol

AFAIK, you have to choose one and only one of the three. It does seem as though they made the "ultimate weapon" selection to include just one weapon appealing to each type category: sword for hunters, rifle for rangers, and longbow for techers.

Personally, I'm going for the rifle. When I melee I never use swords, and I don't have a techer so the longbow is of little to no use to me. The rifle will probably be the best that my FG can get unless we get Killer Elite at some point (and even then I would have to grind the K.E.).

And also to clarify, 1 per account means that they are account locked, ie. no trading or selling possible.

or drop on the floor, or sell to npc, or put in shop.

I just wish the Fucil had more PP, but my main gunner isn't a CAST so Killer Elite is out of the question, so I guess ATP is just going to have to win out over PP this time for me.

The rifle is probably the most useful of the three.

these are the last wave of weapons from the shop, the rifle is sadly unappealing to me

Didnīt know you could cast techs from a longbow... (time to start casting on my PT!)

I wish the 3rd wep was a Rod... then yes, all type categories would be represented...

Swords are worthless on a FM.

Rifles are my least used GM weapon.

I think my GT will enjoy the bow once we get the supplemental update and bows are worth something again.

IMO the weapons should've been an Axe or spear, a shotgun or laser, and a rod or TCSM. THOSE would appeal to the different types.

I agree, its two range weapons and a melee weapon. I hardly ever use a bow on my fortetecher. (noszonde/nosmegid look too cool)

dayum! the rifle 0/10 is higher atp than a 9/10 killer elite!

Well gee, sorry :-P I didn't mean that bows cast techs...rather, they are primarily a techer weapon, and since I don't really play techer classes (once in a blue moon I play AT, which can't use bows), they would be of little use to me. I forgot about Protranser being able to use them, but I don't play PT either.

Getting these weapons is contingent on not only the Desert Arms Shop being updated, but also on when future story missions are added, since the trade items needed for the weapons are rewards from said missions (chapter 7 part 2 and chapter 8 part 2).

I'm going for the bow thats sure

50% elemental with my future PT xD

To me, who play all classes..

Bow : look best, more unique than others (because 90% will get either rifle or sword)
Sword : look good. But high % Agito can win it.
Rifle : look suck, but most useful.


In the end....I choose.. BOW!

What about Feeding to partner machines? and/or if you had another account wrap in a box? or is it like a casino item? where you cant do it.

I'm going to go ahead and guess that it's similar to a casino item.

I really feel as though these have to effect for techers, speaking none of those are tech-related.

Very true. I was actually thinking of getting the rifle as I am starting up a new gunner...but everyone wil have those.

The rifle kicks arse though....nice stats.

The one thing though is that the majority of the population isn't going to want to trek through the story mode to get both items needed for the trade. Of course those who do probably will make tons for a little while, then when everyone has the weapons the price on the items will take a big dive. So I guess I just babbled on about nothing important just now.

I'm pretty sure the items aren't tradeable, but I could be wrong. I mean the components that you get from the story mission.

We need someone to confirm this, because knowing the majority of the players I've met online, they aren't going to play the story mode, and it may actually reduce the number of Erdel weapons you see out there. And if it the mats are tradeable(is that even a word?) I'm going to try and make some money on that. Wow, I sound more greedy than usual.

its understandable anduril. after all, we're ALL trying to make a profit.

sega will probably make it so that once you get the material from the mission once, then you cant get them again. kinda like how you get 8 frags on some story missions but do them again and you get like 2.

the mat are not trade able or sell able, the weapons are not trade able or sell able.
from what its listed repeating the mission gives you the mat again, the mats are used to get a few other items. such as that moatoob hologram room decoration.
thou if someone who plays the jp version says otherwise, i will take this back, i'm just fallowing what psupedia says.

You are correct, if you want the weapon you better work.

They will, once ST gives them reason to play them.

I think a lot of people will force themselves to play the story mode....myself included.

The only reason I've played some of them is for the PA frags.

I just cant wait for these to come out! I might get the sword because im playing on my beast more often.:bondage:

The offline story is pretty bad, but I like using a custom character in the online story missions, and there are some nice, minor rewards. In this case I'm not really compelled by any of the Edel-based weapons, but I think the longbow is a nice departure design-wise, and I guess my GT could use it, unlike the other two weapons.

May 22, 2009, 04:30 AM
I'm definitely getting the bow for my GT. Don't have any char that uses rifles and don't use light element sword. ^^;

May 22, 2009, 04:39 AM
The bow looks the best, and I'd be getting it if it didn't look so insanely long. There's bound to be some pretty severe clipping issues with my midget twig of a caseal.
I'm kinda leaning towards the rifle, but idk. It's way uglier. >_>

Konjiki-Kitsune
May 22, 2009, 11:20 AM
Well, I know I'm getting the Ely Sion because the Rifle does not appeal to me at all (to gaudy looking for me personally). I can't use bows on any of my character's unless I choose to go Protranser again on my now Fortegunner-going-Gunmaster CAST.

Anyways the Ely Sion looks EPIC.

Without hesitation i'll be getting the Bow. OMG i can't wait for the supplemental update. Bows will be much more popular then. Faster firing speed and 41+ has a 50% element. Yes im sold! now if they would only give out some free grind passes or something. I'm very scared to grind that thing. But that 1500 or so ATP is very tempting to try to get it there^^

The bow is more powerful than the rifle. And with the supplemental update bows in general will be better than rifles.

The bow would be perfect for my GT/PT.... and the sword would be perfect for my female beast since i actually like swords.... and i like the way the all look except the rifle is ugly and i hate rifles >.>

But my gunner is my main and it would go perfect on my Future Pallet

Edel rifle
Spread Needle/G
Adahna Deghanna Cannon
GuldMilla

Its like SEGA gave gunners a super pallet XD (techers would have one if they had an awesome wand to go with their pushans and P-wands :O and all fighters have are Rucar+'s and for some reasona bunch of swords lol)

would you not wait for the spread needle? rather than spending a small fortune on a /g.

Spread Needle is going to be every bit as rare (if not rarer) than SN/G.
