Talk:Hourglass Staff

This may be the first weapon for Necromancers and Mesmers that does Fire Damage - are there any others? Krenn 08:56, 10 July 2007 (CDT)
 * Though I am not sure, I don't think I have ever come across one, I shall go and check now. - Russell Willis 09:22, 10 July 2007 (CDT)
 * [Edit] I just checked and there seem to be no other staves for Necromancers or Mesmers that deal Fire Damage. - Russell Willis 09:25, 10 July 2007 (CDT)
 * Wasn't there an entry for Design-A-Weapon '07 that featured hour glasses? 66.214.173.22 13:38, 12 July 2007 (CDT)
 * Not that I remember them showing. [[Image:GDSig.JPG]] 14:08, 12 July 2007 (CDT)
 * The Wayward Ward entry from 2006 looks kind of like an hourglass. -- Gordon Ecker 16:52, 12 July 2007 (CDT)
 * Just checked the 07 winners page, and didn't notice any staff that featured hourglasses. I will note though that I've had some problems with my eyes lately and my vision is not as good as it usually is, so it's certainly possible I could have missed or overlooked it.

 * On the damage note: I have found Fire damage (and I believe Cold damage) Amber and Jade Wands belonging to the rit attributes, when they normally are Lightning damage --Gimmethegepgun 17:23, 12 July 2007 (CDT)
 * Yeah, the (non-green) loot versions of Ritualist and Energy Storage weapons have a randomly selected elemental damage type. -- Gordon Ecker 17:32, 12 July 2007 (CDT)

I can't create it
I have just bought the pre-release pack of GW:EN, and I can't create any of the weapons. I tried /preorder, /bonusitems and /bonus. It only gives me the Spear and Scythe from the NF pre-release pack. Maybe that is the problem? That they don't work together? Shame, and if this can be confirmed by more people, I'll send a support ticket to Anet, cus for now I payed 5 euro's for a NF trailer and access to the Preview Weekend.

 * You need GW:EN before you can get them from /bonus. GW:EN isn't live yet, so you're going to have to wait until August 24 before you can even attempt to create it from /bonus. --Kale Ironfist 07:16, 20 July 2007 (CDT)
 * Well, there is no notice of this. All the box and the FAQ say is that you get the items. Too bad :( Blaze 07:26, 20 July 2007 (CDT)
 * The preorder items will be available before the game goes live. All previous preorder items only became available after an update patch that added support for them. See Game_updates/20060309 for an example of the Factions preorder items going live. I can't find the update that added Nightfall preorder items, but I know for a fact that I was running around presearing with a scythe and spear a while before Nightfall was released. --[[image:Goteki-45.jpg]] Goteki-45  10:16, 20 July 2007 (CDT)
 * btw, what's with August 24? GW:EN goes live on 31st... Blaze 13:22, 20 July 2007 (CDT)
 * The 24th is when the preview weekend begins. [[Image:GDSig.JPG]] 13:25, 20 July 2007 (CDT)
 * I see, didn't even know that they put a date on that. Blaze 14:18, 20 July 2007 (CDT)
