Screenshots of new skins[edit]
Is there any screen shot these new skin? --The preceding unsigned comment was added by 203.116.251.232 (talk).
- They can be previewed at the Vigil Weapons Specialist [Merchant] near the Refugee camp in Hoelbrak Lady Elyssa 07:27, 27 March 2013 (UTC)
- Dulfy has images, but not sure how everyone feels about pulling them from there (the currently existing sword image is not from her). I had asked previously and got permission from her to pull over images she had for the Lost Shores, but never checked on general images. Vahkris 16:55, 27 March 2013 (UTC)
- A screenshot is a screenshot, and no one can "own" a screenshot because they all fall under Anet's copyright anyway. So technically/legally, there's no need to ask permission to copy screenshots, although it's good to be courteous. As far as the wiki's concerned, all we care about is having high-quality images (and I know Dulfy's are). —Dr Ishmael 17:35, 27 March 2013 (UTC)
- Yeah, it was never about legality, but courtesy. I know she can't restrict it, but I like to avoid annoying people who are helping. Vahkris 18:03, 27 March 2013 (UTC)
- You can always add the url to the original image to the file page.--Relyk ~ talk > 02:09, 29 March 2013 (UTC)
- I sent her a quick email to make sure she's okay with us pulling general stuff from her site to help fill out the wiki. She responded, "By all means, please do :)" Vahkris 04:04, 29 March 2013 (UTC)
- here's your images on this 2-person developed web site that makes this wiki look like lazy IT guys in the basement of the office building. http://dulfy.net/2013/03/26/gw2-fused-weapon-gallery/ —The preceding unsigned comment was added by SiderFace (talk • contribs) at 22:12, 30 March 2013 (UTC).

(Reset indent) I've uploaded the few decent quality (4) wielded images from Dulfy's pages (including the comments bit). -Chieftain Alex 15:12, 15 April 2013 (UTC)
- I was pretty sure we already had weapon images. What happened to them? Vahkris 17:53, 15 April 2013 (UTC)
- Just checked, we do. http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/User_talk:Alftagrabben Vahkris 17:54, 15 April 2013 (UTC)
- Ah, before the pages were renamed! -Chieftain Alex 18:00, 15 April 2013 (UTC)
Drop rate?[edit]
What's the drop rate for the ticket? I've opened around 60+ chests so far and not got it. I can't really afford to keep dropping cash for gems. Is this purely a commercial ruse by ArenaNet? Neon 12:46, 15 April 2013 (UTC)
- That would be the case if there were no in-game sources for keys. Take, for example, the fact that the level 10 quest for all races and all biography choices awards a Black Lion Key? Now, consider if you and a couple of friends all make a human warrior, commoner, and speed through the first 6 quests. It would take you, hypothetically speaking, 20-30 minutes and you'd each end up with a key. More players (or higher level helpers) can cut this time down even further. Essentially, it's 15-30 minutes on average to "farm" for "150 gems" (or whatever the cost of the keys are). It's a grind, but do it enough times and you will be rewarded (2x hair remodels, 1 gender changer, 1 mini trio, 3 BL kits... in the course of a day or two of grinding). Thought no Super or Fused skins. The drop rate must be super super low! --Kristofferus 03:04, 2 May 2013 (UTC)
Discontinued?[edit]
Is this permanent or will they be brought back? Sardaukar 02:56, 29 November 2014 (UTC)
Yeah... same question for me. Will the Fused Weapons be released again at some point? --68.134.16.230 03:41, 29 May 2015 (UTC)
