Build 1778 March / 13 / 2007

Vanguard Build 1778 Patch Notes 3/13/2007

CRAFTING NOTES
- Of Striking crafted items have been changed. The previous bonus from striking was too powerful and so these items can no longer be made. Instead recipes will now produce striking items that are within the balance guidelines and add a striking proc as well.
This is NOT a retroactive change. Old striking items will remain the same

- All old of striking weapons have been changed to soulbound

2 Days ago, Rapido of my guild Dogma on Gelenia made these for me, they were a worldwide discovery.
Guess that makes them almost unique, since they can not be made with these stats anymore.
Just wanted to show these to the monk community (to make you all very jealous hehe 2funny)

I'm a very happy monk!

Wow...those would make me happy in the pants to have. Too bad there were no Leatherworkers high enough level on Tharridon  to make them before the patch.

Would like to see what the new stats are, even though they will not be as sick as the ones in the pic ><

The guy that made them is a lvl 37 leather worker, not sure at what lvl they can be made.
Not sure about the materials he used either, think a rare T4 leather was involved.

It wasn't me who took the screenshot of that item, think the crafter did it and he's pretty low adventure level.

I spoke to a guy on my server who got one of these made and was using it at level 22 before the recent change (although maybe his was the tier 3 version as I recall his the rating being in the high 40s). Anyway, the one drawback to having such a fantastic weapon that early on is that it sorta kills the fun factor a bit for the rest of the game. I doubt there are many drops even in the high-end raiding game that rival this kind of DPS, if any at all. It's also likely that with the recent change, the new tier 4 version of these is actually less powerful than the old tier 3 version, potentially leaving the player without any options to ever upgrade.

Not that anyone really should feel sorry for them wielding stuff like this.  Wink

New stats are gimp as SNARF.

I had the same pair of hand wraps that were once 44 dps pre-patch, now 38 dps post patch.

I was struggling to find mats for the 58 dps one all night before the patch but no one wanted to give up mats for phat cash Sad

It's okay though, Rahz Inkur drops handwraps and they said they are buffing Rahz items according to Cylus so I will wait for those Tongue

Either that or wait for T5 Heoric once they fix the recipe.

What are the new stats of both the Rare and Legendary versions of this?  Are they still worth pursuing?

http://vg-en.curse-gaming.com/database/items/details/1325784/flawless-guardians-handwrap-of-striking/

Is this the new item?   Still worth it in my opinion it looks like.

So nobody knows?  I'm trying to figure out if dropping 10-15g on the Firm Hide needed to make these is worth it.  Cuz if the stats are correct on the link I posted I think they'd last for a very long time.
