Lokki.1092 Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 Seriously being able to fight with Sohothin was absolutely amazing, loved every second of it. But now my own Fiery Dragon Sword feels... lame. Not because of the powers, obviously we wouldn't get that, but the texture looks old, flat, and dated compared to the new updated Sohothin. Is there any chance we can get the new model and texture for the Fiery Dragon Sword? Also the fact that it was a greatsword made me realize how much I would love to have a Fiery Dragon Sword skin that can be applied to a greatsword. Any possibility of this at all? Maybe? Please?

Kuulpb.5412 Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 Sad thing is, the Sohothin we are given is effectively "Mist-enhanced", while our fiery dragon swords were left there for 250 years. we're lucky they still function. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boysenberry.1869 Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 It is proof that Rytlock has been slacking big time during story missions. He could solo everything but instead just stands around auto-attacking and dying. Kick him out of the guild! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My interpretation of this was that the weapon is unusually useful against Balthy and his forged because Balthy re-lit the weapon. It's probably just a normal sword when fighting Mordrem. And I guess Branded are... I dunno you can come up with something plausible. Maybe the sword is just really "fired" up fighting against forged and it carries over to the Branded collateral.

Haleydawn.3764 Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 The Fiery Dragon Sword is merely an Ascalonian replica without special powers. It is not Sohothin or Magdaer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sorudo.9054 Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 in lore the FDS isn't just a sword you can find anywhere (despite the amount of times it drops in GW1) so retexture is certainly in place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orpheal.8263 Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 Rytlock should just die and leave us back (or Logan) Sohothin as our basically rightful "legacy" from him. Its time, that some old characters get just removed, so that the story of GW2 can progress and we get to see some new heroes and characters, that get into the foot steps of the older ones., the story needs some new faces to receive some fresh new wind .. we have now already for whopping 5 years permanently the same faces of Marjory, Rytlock, Kasmeer, Rox, Braham and Taimi.. ok, Eir died - tragic - boohoo, but to think about, what we have done in these 5 years, its kind of illogical, that the chances have been so low, that not more died of them... ok, Zojja nearly died, but shes still alive and blind now as Anet put her on ice due to VA reasons.. I think the death of characters can be also important for story telling, cause the death of a character is a very emotional thing, somthign, so strogn, that it can change the character of somebody completely - see Braham... Just think over it, what the death of Marjory could mean to the character of Kasmeer? Or what the death of Rytlock could mean to Rox? If a hotheaded Braham would die now , I just guess nobody would even miss him from ous players xD He has become so replaceable, but think over it, how his death could affect for example Taimi, cause she likes him so much, even if she woudl never admit it officially maybe ^^ Introducing new Heroes into the story tellign for example Living Story Season 4 and beyond is also something, that makes the game more interesting, if you see gettign introduced every now and then some new faces that become part of the story. Its for example still completely uncleared, where the second sylvari tree is and where Malyck has been all the time, he woudl make surely a great replacement for one of the other characters as maybe a guardian hero (cause Logan is now Pact Marshall in a safe spot, so we basically lost our guardian) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashantara.8731 Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 During my first playthrough, I actually expected the updated Sohothin to become available as a new Legendary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is why I said we obviously wouldn't get the power of Sohothin, but the Fiery Dragon Sword is a replica. in GW they looked 100% identical to the Sohothin, in GW2 they looked 100% identical to the Sohothin until a few weeks ago. I would just like the FDS model and texture to be copied from the sword it is a replica of. Also give us the 2handed option, please! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually didnt think about that till i saw this, and you are right. It is supposed to be a replica, so therefore it should look like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having a Fiery Dragon Greatsword would overwrite that. We could have 2? I don't know. It was just awesome to have Sohothin on my back. Really I just want the texture and model updated.

BlaqueFyre.5678 Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 They were made in the image of doesn’t mean they will be exactly the same, plus Sohothin is a Legendary Weapon of Lore so should have a more unique look, than the item made in its likeness.

Palador.2170 Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 No killing Rytlock! We need him for when the smiths finally finish with Magdaer. I want to see him dual wielding the pair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sazukikrah.5036 Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 Isn't it amazing , the very thing used to kill Balthazaar was his own power lol. His own demise. Cliche ! but still awesome, none the less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
