Me want! And i don't even play caster other than Necro. Btw, do these come in non-monk requirements? It'd be nice if i could get a Death Magic/Soul Reaping one--D N A 03:43, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
 * It's not monk-only, at least. [[Image:Felix_Omni_Signature.png]] 04:06, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Heard rumours it drops from locked chests in gwen (dalada uplands), can anyone confirm?
 * Finally, a Healing Prayers focus that doesn't look like crap. 128.82.11.191 05:44, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Blessed Chalice. [[Image:Felix_Omni_Signature.png]] 05:45, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Is it just me or the original design was way cooler than this... this... really flat implementation they made? I mean, couldn't it be animated like the hourglass staff or storm artifact? Jennalee 10:36, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
 * How do you know it's not animated? [[Image:Felix_Omni_Signature.png]] 10:41, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Original concept art said the glowing circles rotate. I suppose you couldn't see it if they just spun like, clockwise/anticlockwise just from a screen but you'd see the bits in more interesting positions if they spun like you'd spin a coin <.< Jennalee 10:45, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
 * The three glyphs and the outer circle are supposed to rotate. It looks pretty nice imo... J Striker 12:48, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
 * It's probably going to be the most popular new accessory for tiny blonde buns Obsidian Armor Chaos Gloves monks. [[Image:Felix_Omni_Signature.png]] 12:50, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
 * I'd rather have something with more substance. Can't blame them though - after perfect stats for whatever it is you want from an item (not hard), it's all about the rarity/expense and/or looks. Jennalee 13:46, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Did anyone else think of a highly used symbol in the Phantasy Star series upon seeing this? Aethernox 21:54, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
 * No, but now that you mention it... [[Image:SnagretpuddingSig.png|19px]] Snagretpudding 02:48, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
 * I think the design in concept looked teh win but A-net dumbed it down, they must have cardiac arrests at the amount of work they would of had to put into it i.e not alot. The phantasy star symbol is a circle with three blobs, woo. They simply put three blobs since the concept one (three different symbols) was hella of alot better looking and coincidentally alot more complicated. Flechette 07:14, 10 March 2008 (UTC)
 * GG for basing your assumptions about how much effort ANet put into this based on a blurry, washed out picture... As you can see in Element E's picture below there are in fact 3 different symbols, and this can also be seen if you look closely at the picture on the item's page. This item is a fine piece of work on ANet's part, and I am personally quite satisfied with it. --Sarda The Sage 00:07, 11 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Not familiar with Phantasy Star, but the first thing I thought of when I saw it was the Atlantean Scion (original, not Anniversary). --68.187.144.197 06:04, 12 March 2008 (UTC)
 * While the actual symbol is a circular line with three 'blobs', I was talking about this: http://www.gamestation.com.hk/download/wallpaper_image/pso/images/pso_02.jpg I was familiar with the symbol, and the compass' skin simply reminded me of it. Aethernox 20:44, 12 March 2008 (UTC)
 * It reminds me of this... top right corner. --[[Image:Progr.png]] -- talkpage 21:49, 19 March 2008 (UTC)

couldn't we just put "all attributes" under Linked Attributes? theruon 12:05, 23 March 2008 (UTC)
 * You'd probably want to confirm every single one before saying that :P Jennalee 12:12, 28 March 2008 (UTC)

Picture
I just got one from the end UW chest, it was gold r9 energy storage. I took pics if someone wants to crop them and replace the current one. It is animated, the 3 circles in the middle spins while the outside glows slowly. http://img358.imageshack.us/img358/1948/compasszp5.jpg - IGN: Element E

Has anyone confirmed the chest in dalada uplands is the only place it drops or is it that no one is providing info of where it has dropped?

Got one from Zaishen Chest the other day. Tyr_CV

Dye
Does this dye?--&mdash; Hyprodimus Prime   19:51, 13 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Unlikely, but we don't know for certain yet. [[Image:Felix_Omni_Signature.png]] 20:09, 13 March 2008 (UTC)

It does Dye --Tyr_CV
 * May we please upload that and display it on the article's page? [[Image:Felix_Omni_Signature.png]] 02:40, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Even better, thank you very much. [[Image:Felix_Omni_Signature.png]] 02:40, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

Yes would be honored to help out. I can not get it to fully upload. Added Black to the chart. http://img135.imageshack.us/img135/5023/colorchartcelestialcompgm1.jpg
 * Best look in my opinion. Tyr CV 05:11, 20 March 2008 (UTC)Tyr CV
 * Wonderful, a decent caster off hand skin that dyes! &mdash;♥May♥ Wick♥ 10:29, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
 * That's awesome :D
 * Now could you be so kind to see what adding silver dye to a colour does, does it make the cracks/inscription/lines on it stand out more? Because that would be great for the darker colours -- GamerJ ( Talk  ! ) 12:12, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

Dalada Uplands
Can anyone confirm that this item can be obtained from locked chests in this area? Can't see a pick anywhere in this talk, just somebody who says he has heared rumors about it.

Zaishen
Every weapon skin drops from there, but policy indicates I can't, 1rv. Permission to override or something? Jamster 18:51, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
 * I'd say it's one of the primary places it's found so leave it. Jennalee 03:27, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
 * I'd really prefer to keep Zaishen Chest off all weapon locations, because otherwise exceptions will start popping up and IPs will start adding Zaishen Chest to everything. Also, the UW chest is known to drop "exclusive" skins- skins that can't be found outside of the UW chest, except for the Zaishen chest- whereas Zaishen has no exclusive weapons (although it does have exclusive items, which are listed). If you feel adamantly that Zaishen Chest should be kept, I'd be willing to leave it be, but otherwise I'd really prefer it not be listed. [[Image:Felix_Omni_Signature.png]] 09:35, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
 * I cannot think of any skin which drops exclusively from the UW chest - all the ones i can think of which people found dropped there turned up from the Z chest also. Jennalee 09:39, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
 * That's what I said. But I think Talk:Zaishen Chest clears up the issue. [[Image:Felix_Omni_Signature.png]] 09:41, 6 April 2008 (UTC)

Celestial Compass lettering
Has anyone noticed that the symbols on the GW compass is significantly different than the ones on Tony's? Its really trivial, but the ones on the GW compass are repeated 4 times. I quickly cut and paste the differnt quadrants so you can see. On other notes...I wonder who made up the lettering, I really quite like it. I wonder if there is a full alphabet/font.http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a368/hyprodimus/Celestial_Compass_lettering.jpg --&mdash; Hyprodimus Prime   21:34, 6 April 2008 (UTC)


 * It looks like a variation on Quenya created by Tolkien --BeeD 12:59, 16 April 2008 (UTC)
 * I don't think it looks anything like that at all. Ezekiel  [Talk]  13:05, 16 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Hence I said variation --BeeD 13:16, 16 April 2008 (UTC)

Lol @
Template box. The only attributes not listed are Air and Inspiration :P --Macros 21:50, 10 April 2008 (UTC)


 * I'm adding Air Magic to the list
 * [[Image:Compass-Air.jpg]] -- Fexghadi 21:41, 13 April 2008 (UTC)


 * And with that (AHHH FRENCH!)... I think we can safely assume that there's an Inspiration one, so let's just say "all caster attributes" --Gimmethegepgun 21:44, 13 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Sorry, I just took it off from a french guru-equivalent site to contribute here :$ hope you won't blame me for being Belgian xD -- Fexghadi 21:46, 13 April 2008 (UTC)
 * Wait until we see/find one :P. You never know, ANet may have forgotten about it or I'm just extra cautious and pedantic Jennalee 03:35, 16 April 2008 (UTC)
