Titan Weapons will include the Rail Road Crossing sign...

Animations speed up as you go... ("Momentum")

Not 21, still in production

Where are you getting this info from?

The Momentum thing makes sense, based on the Massively article from yesterday (which also stated that the two handed set would not be released in time for i21).

Is "Titan Weapons" the name of the set, or is it subset of weapon options? I will be disappointed if it's not the highly sought after pole weapon set, as I'm sure many others will be.

With more swords IN it.

They did stress that they were concepts only at this stage.

The idea of Momentum sounds like perfect synergy with Brute's Fury mechanic. Sounds like it's gonna be an awesome set.

What are the odds on Stalkers getting these?

I am of two minds about it:
it sounds silly
but
why limit stalkers to one concept? (as was done with shields)

To be fair, Shield is a far sillier set due to all Stalker secondary sets requiring Hide as the first power.

Stalker primaries on the other hand can pretty much be anything you want.

All they need to do is add the cardboard box and shrubbery shield's. Problem solved.

The sword in there is nice If we can get swords kind of like this one, then I have a level 50 Scrapper I'd be willing to reroll. I just hope women will finally get a sword-like weapon that's bigger than the damb Legacy Broadsword.

Hiding with a shield is no sillier, really, than hiding because you heal good.

At least you can hide behind the shield. Your stalker is just THAT good at hiding.

Which really makes little sense, given that regeneration is normally presented as a biological ability. Even in anime-land where ridiculousness abounds, regeneration is NOT something a martial artist does, at least not the level regeneration normally presents. (and normally, it's done after a fight and on someone else.)

Also, for shields you can just take the damn Taunt aura away and it'll be fine.

Inner power...including biologically. Considering it's taken directly from a certain high-profile Canadian.

Is that a big rusty sword... with smaller swords sticking out of it? This is going to be awesome. It's like the devs looked into my soul and saw my dreams.

The shield could have a cloaking device in it

hmm.... one looks like it's derived from a macuahuitl, then you've got a zanbato and.... well, if I was making a post-apocalyptic character, I'd much rather have a STOP sign than a railroad crossing sign. I'd also like a mace made from a parking meter.

To me, it looks like a plank of wood, with some sort of serrated metal on the edges, with knives embedded in it.

Which to me, is completely awesome.



Thank you, Champion.
