Hello everyone,

In just a short while, we'll be closing down the Weapon Diversity Beta server.

The great news with this is that I'm happy to confirm that we're doing this to prepare for Bank Placeholders/Improvements, oh... and we'll using that beta to launch the new Weapon Diversity beta which includes the weapons we originally didn't update!

I'll be having Mod Timbo joining me on stream tomorrow to talk about the changes for the Weapon Diversity update, also expect a showcase of all the changes we've done for the bank update!

The initial plan for the beta is to launch next week, however if this changes we'll keep you updated!

Thank you all :)

Will we finally get the gizmo picker that was promised? Was literally waiting for that.

You damn right :)

when do we get the three free action bars and additional bank space that was promised?

- The three free action bars is part of the big mobile update, no ETA on that yet

- The bank space will come with the full bank placeholders/improvements update :)

Haven't been in the loop that much lately- has there been any significant changes to the current weapon effects? I remember some of them being ok but some effects were just better in most situations (eg. mauls and fire+earth spells vs air and water), there were no wands/staff effects, lots of effects were just too similar and will these replace 4taa?

Part one weapon diversity effects haven't changed (and won't be changed when the beta has been back up). Changes were made in the initial couple of weeks based on player feedback but there hasn't been enough feedback to make any further changes.

Of course, all weapon effects are still in beta and if there are any further significant feedback on the first batch half of weapon diversity effects, we'll make changes to those too.
