See my previous post for the reason.
If necessary, I can edit it to make it more whiny.

The set was obviously ready enough to be put into the game in the hands of NPC enemy groups, it's been functional on Beta for ages.. Why was it held back in the first place?
When are we getting it? Why havent it been released weeks ago?

at the VERY LEAST you could answer those simple questions, especially about -when- we're getting it...

Staff Fighting was, by far, the most anticipated new 'item' of i22.. You advertised it to be PART of i22 launch.. then you never gave it to us!? Get on it!

Stop mucking about with Vanity pets and stuff, sort out the things that you yourselves said would've come with i22 THEN you can do that other stuff..

i'm sorry, it's just that i was busy playing the game and doing other things, and thought that with all the Dev announcements regarding the release schedule (since it was first announced it was stated that it would be released some time after i22 went live), commentary by other players regarding it, and the many, many other threads that have discussed this topic since Staff Fighting was officially announced that i wouldn't have to personally notify you about it. My mistake.

Now, it's true that some Tsoo and other NPCs have had Staff powers since i22 came out, but there are other sets where NPCs had powers from those sets long before a player version was released. In some cases i recall it being years. That's in part because NPCs don't need to have full, balanced powersets to use. They get a handful of powers that don't have to be balanced against player powersets and don't require a suite of 9 or more powers to be usable.

Still, i apologize on behalf of all the other players who neglected to personally inform you about all the publicly available information that could have helped reduce the confusion and stress caused by Staff Fighting not being released today. It was an oversight that will most likely happen again.

Dr. Todt's theme.
i make stuff...

Locking this thread as it's certainly not a question and we've got enough threads like this in the general forum.
