Is there an ETA on this list being implemented? I'm not looking for a hard date just something! super excited with the possibility of most of these ornaments!
There's no ETA for these. With everything else that's been going on lately, I wouldn't expect them for at least a month or two if I had to guess, possibly even longer. This is a side project Ngreth is doing on his own outside of his normal workload, so it's not exactly a high priority. He did manage to implement the last round faster than I expected and we tried to cut the work down on him this time around, so he could surprise us
https://lucy.allakhazam.com/item.html?id=160365 didnt make it into the list. I am stockpiling currency until these are ready. Thank you in advance for your hard work!
https://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/item.html?item=94625 Any chance for some more 2hp? There is only a few of them I believe, and I have all of them, then again, I am addicted to ornaments and have many bags full.
Did anything ever move forward with additional weapon ornamentations, or did the proposal go into the black hole? I had been running overseer tasks for some of the new proposed ornaments but haven’t logged in for several months.
If requests are still being taken, can i request the Stoneoak Tower Shield? https://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/item.html?item=113958
They haven't been added yet, this is a side project that's being worked on when time permits. With everything that's been happening lately, I imagine they've been on the back burner for now. I was hoping to see them before the new expansion came out but not sure if it will happen by then. The final list with votes tallied has already been submitted. That shield was already on the list and the highest voted shield as well, so there's a decent chance that it will be one of the included ornaments. After the next round of ornaments are implemented, we can probably start a new list with the ones that didn't make the cut this time and any new requests. Maybe try and keep the thread/voting open a little longer next time to give everyone a chance to see it and make requests/votes.
understand that Ngreth's wife, Denmother Niami of EQTraders, just got home from the hospital after Cancer surgery .. (Check EQtraders.com) So his life is more than a little hectic at this time I am sure.
Yeah. Currently, I am totally swamped. I may be able to assign it to an apprentice we have, but I can;t promise that yet.
We all forgive you in advance if it takes until 2021, if it means we receive an expansion mostly on time in 2020. Just please, don't do anything annoying to people that stock up on currency in advance. <3 u Mr. Ogre.
I also can't promise where I place this. So don't stock up too much? It may be marketplace, it may be overseer merchant, it may be anniversary. It could be a mix The original plan has always been marketplace, but the team (all of us) decided that Overseer was new and thus needed more of a spotlight, at the time of the last release.
Thank you for being transparent with that. Ngreth, I just want to call out that many of us appreciate how open and communicative you are on these types of things. I think your interaction makes me enjoy EQ more because reading your posts feels exciting, reminds me of interacting with Minecraft's Devs in the really really old days when Mojang was a small indie studio. Odd to think they're now part of the Microsoft conglomerate and the EQ team is now spun off from SOE & a small studio again. I guess what I'm saying is to some of us you're a rock star, please don't run-off for a solo career.
The Rainbow weapon was included in this round, it was the 3rd highest voted Pierce weapon. So it may make it into the game this round, I wouldn't expect to see them until after the new expansion at the earliest though. Between the new expansion and Ngreth already putting in OT for that, there's not really any time for the ornaments atm.
I would definitely spend the 63k overseer bits for a Basalt Greatsword of the Protector ornament (item ID 25987)
Omens had great weap designs, i wish to see the notched blade of bloodletting and the monk 2hb from COA as ornaments.
The Monk 2hder is available from the TS Ornaments: https://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/item.html?item=92949 The Notched Blade is a cool model, I don't think there's any ornaments of that one yet.
