As you can see, I have a healthy stable of CITW weapons already, so this doesn't really mean much. Now the alts I never play can have something. If this never happened, they would continue on without CITW weapons.

Then I wonder, if Twilight still worth it. So you get Necro/Evo Focus IV weapons on lvl23 1-handed generic loot now? Cause some people say Twilight was outdated. Hmm, the number of good 1-handed melee weapons also makes for some tough decisions. Considering, I plan on TRing a lot in the future, since it's become easier and the 20-28 grind seems not worth it so much. I'd go with cleaver. Really big numbers in LD, centered, Keen edge, mster mt stance, OC. Like a x6 crit multiplier on 19-20s.

	my 2wf already has 2 hammers and 2 rapiers so im taking a celestia and hoping i get another, be a 2 hammer fight/monk splash something else for blue bar healing with cocoon when I get to epic levels might be 4 pally for more saves or something else who knows. have the handwraps and sireth for 2nd goodness to play around with as I will have blunt, got the bow but not enough tomes to make that work unfortunately . But if your going for 2wf dps tere the hammer and rapier are good choices tere depends on your build, celestia is great as a universal dr breaker it doesnt have the crit profile of the hammer or rapier, hammer is really nice in LD for that crit threat range increase, stacks with kensai. then the monk stuff. Though who knows it might all be nerfed by the time I get to play again . But on the citw I have run I have seen the hammers and rapier much much more than celestia and I won 1 of each on rolls, when celestia dropped no one put it up for roll or they offered a ton of other stuff to buy it so........... anyway my 2hf who is a bard atm is getting the cleaver .

Well, considering my main has 2 Nightmare, 2 Balizarde and a Pinion, all before the box was even announced. Monkcher already had pinion. The rest of them I didn't really care about getting CITW weapons for except maybe the stick build. (Who qualified for but didn't get the box anyways). 1/2 of them just took a weapon just because, the others got coms so I can buy armor or augments.

	I grabbed Pinion on half of my characters who had nothing better to take just to stare at. They shall be used to hit range levers!

	Everyone should grab Pinion so they can link it to join "Don't join if you need Pinion" runs, and then leave it in the chest if it drops for you. Y'know, cause those will happen again. Someday. Fuck it. This would have been better six months ago.

	someone told me in game taht if you have celestia in an off hand and a throwing weapon in the main hand the throwing weapon can then do light damage to break dr, was this guy bsing and is this an exploit? Just thinking it might be useful for the fighter monk build using ninja stars, if you can't get the tomes or spare feats for pinion use when you need to range?

	The real gap in power between random gen and twilight is the crit differene (20% vs. 6%/9%). A few less spellpower isn't really a big deal.� That's also why going for the balizarde/one-hander combo is not good either IMO, because you're missing out on 20% crit for one more damage type.�

	Necro took Twilight (never even ran a raid beyond a shroud ages ago) Assassin took 2nd Celestia (has Celestia, Agony, Pinion) Monk took Pinion (has Antipode) now can make Monkcher w/o farming citw FVS took comms (has Twilight) Sorc took Pinion (has Twilight) just to show it off

If they gave us... i dunno... a RAID to play.. then maybe it wouldn't be. CITW is not all that fun and FoT is ok but since it's the only end-game raid it's already been run a jillion times and since it has mediocre loot, the best thing in that raid now is coms. And since coms were duped..... We used to have a raid scene. No we have -a- raid.. sorta.

	Antipodes are very solid wraps. A Shintao Monk that can bypass all metallic-based DRs being able to bypass all alignment-based DRs additionally is pretty good. The 6% Doublestrike, the +10 Stunning, and the Reinforced Fists are all nice. The upgrades via Comms are also very nice. Antipode is a solid choice for handwraps.

Lets you keep planar set bonus, slot some spellpower 138 on it, adds 8% dodge, insightful saves and good luck freeing up gear slots, and can be paired with 1-hander spellpower + crit chance + slot (maybe) item. See my post above.
