Those three travel sets are indeed new to the market, and probably all we're going to be getting this week. You may now commence the gnashing of teeth.

Just to hear the incredible sound

Well that's a big old meh all round then.
Shame.
<insert miffed annoyance about how Staff fighting could have come out>
Also as mentioned below, the Panther travel power would have atleast added some pizzaz to the store...instead it's a bunch of IOs and the Liger or Lion pet available seperately...that hits a level of meh not really seen before.

I was half-expecting to see the panther travel power this week at least.
Oh well, same time next week?
Me, two weeks ago: I should buy some character slots while they're 25% off. Who knows when they'll go on sale again? *buys slots*
This week: character slots 50% off, previously purchased slots not even filled yet. *facepalm*
Paragon Market, why u no have good stuff?
Please allow my friend Hulk here to express my displeasure...
That is all.

Eh, I am not convinced that there won't be something more added in the morning.
I'm not sure why it has gone that way a few times, but it has.
We'll just have to see.

Liger/Lion didn't go live till around almost 0500 PST last week.

On the bright side, if this is all we get, at least it's not another week of them cramming that 4-legged rig down our collective throat again.
FUN FACT: That burst of light when you level up is actually the effectiveness escaping from your enhancements all at once.

Well that lets me hold out some hope but apparently the IOs are new so not holding my breath on something uber-exciting today.|

Still another 4 hours will let us see or 7 if we're waiting for people to get into the office.

No Staff?
Well I'm officially taking the week off from the forums. 
I hope when I get back there's enough of Zwillinger and Blackpebble to have some proper services.

Careful, if they catch you saying stuff like that, we'll just end up with two straight months of Snake-rig vanity pets nobody asked for.

That's not new, you could get them separately last week too. It's just that they weren't on the "featured items" list, you had to look for them under permanent powers -> non-combat pets.

Its like they *don't* want our money...
It has now been a month since I bought points.
I want to buy something but they don't have anything new worth buying :<
I really hope they just haven't released what's coming out today to the market yet. Otherwise, I'll admit that I'm disappointed this week...
Personally, I'd rather they spaced out their major releases anyway. This need to cram something MUST BUY every week just makes the results meh when they do come out.

I'm surprised we haven't seen more little things like the Volcanic Aura in the market place. Also there's various things that I'd consider buying, but at the moment the price point is just too high, see Enhancements, character storage expansions.
Servers seem to be going down for maintenance at 4am PDT, so I wouldn't be surprised if they put what's going into the store up for purchase AFTER the servers come back up. I'm reasonably sure that it's not just going to be the travel sets.

Items i would purchase in an instant if they were available/a LOT cheaper.
- Character slots. Far too expensive, they need a week of having these on a special half price offer. They would make a killing on just that alone.
- New Auras. Auras are just as important to a costume as the actual parts. Some new auras like the volcanic/paths would be on the must purchase for myself.
- New capes. Same as the above, been a good while since we had cape updates.
- A temp double of yourself that cant fight, just follows you.
@Damz Find me on the global channel Union Chat. One of the best "chat channels" ingame!
It's probably going to be staff fighting. With that said as much as I've wanted the set over the years (it's always been #1 on my want list) I'm not going to get it anyways. While the set looks quite good, the set completely fails at doing respectable single target dps, which just really makes me sad.

If it does get released today I probably won't be buying it for a while. I've been excited about staff fighting since back before we knew they were working on it. I've even had a stalker planned out since that first video was leaked. But after seeing it ready on beta but going unreleased week after week I've kinda hit a point where I'm not all that interested in it anymore. I rolled another stalker last week and I've been having fun with that, so it'll probably be a few months before I want to level another one. Maybe I'll get lucky and it'll go on sale when that happens.

Just wondering since yesterday was Easter Monday that nobody would be in the office to 'flip the switch' so to speak to activate whatever is new at midnight (EST) Monday as is often the case with the Pargon Market.
Just checked and couldn't see anything new apart from the Liger and Lion being sold seperately and three IO sets for purchase but then I don't think those are actually new.
If it isn't I'm assuming we'll just have to wait for people to get in at the morning (which puts it around 4pm GMT).
Either that or because we Brits have now switched over from GMT to BST, I'll wait another hour.
