News From The Herald
Invader Insignia Unlocks - A New Solution. WAR's Customer Service has implemented a new way to help players who purchased an RvR weapon but could not equip it. All you have to do is go to a merchant with a buy back tab, sell the weapon and then buy it back from the buy back tab. However, certain players will need to make an appeal. Please see the post to determine if you are one of them and what course of action you will need to take (I'd rather not summarize it and risk bungling the information ).
Also, Mythic has identified those of you who received Conqueror's/Fused Conqueror's Insignias instead of their Invader counterparts. Expect to receive 100 Invader's Insignias in the form of a 'Gift of Lost Insignias' over the weekend. You will not need to appeal, and the Conqueror's Insignias will remain in your possession.

New Video Grab Bag! Andy Belford, Nate Levy and Mike Wyatt are the hosts of WAR's first video grab bag. They answered some of the questions you submitted regarding 1.3.4, including how they chose which scenarios to remove, reasons for the new currency, future items and the art for the new weapons.
Around the 'Net
One Shots: Good is a relative term. A pretty funny WAR screenshot comes to us today courtesy of Massively.com. Player John P. submitted a shot of his Shadow Warrior, who is interested in the armor of a dead elf NPC. Hey, he doesn't need it anymore, right?

The MMO Report. The new WAR Steins were featured on G4TV.com's weekly webshow The MMO Report. You can catch the clip at the 5:20 mark of the video.

man, i don't know how they can justify this as "news" everything they talked about was discussed 2-3 weeks ago. What a let down!

To be fair, we filmed this 2-3 weeks ago...and the questions had to be redone, since we changed things up during the PTS.

Editing is what takes time, and I'd rather put something out with the same news a bit late than not deliver on promised content.

Its still a good grab bag, just a bit late, I think most players are enjoying the new found communication that is happening with WAR, but they are a bit frustrated with it being the "same" communication. I know I give ya a hard time sometimes, but I think you do a great job with the community team and with the tools that you have to work with, keep it up. Oh yeah, start some of those feedback threads as discussed in the last dev vent session.

I am a bit curious though, did you mention something about lowering prices? Or has that been scrapped.

I thought Todd's post was fantastic. Clear, detailed, and with the right tone.
