New GS weapons.

Took a few pics from the fitting room so we could have all the golden saucer weapons in one place.

Did not see any axe or books though?

The monk ones look cooler than I expected.

How much is everything MGP wise? Including gear and mounts? Won't be able to log in until later :(

IIRC all the weapons were 10,000 MGP each...

The BLM rod looks terrible on so many levels.

Sword: Awesome if you're into the "junior high edgy" look. Claws: Finally, I can complete my Zoidberg cosplay! Spear: Duct Tape? Check. Pointy bit? Check. Bow: ...I actually like blue so, um. It's ok. WHM Staff: MOON PRISM POWER! BLM: Hey, you broke my Astrolabe! SMN/SCH: Well, screw you too, SE.

LOL, I was going to remark that they are hideous.

The BLM rod looks like it should be opening some kind of cartoon door.

The MNK ones look a bit bad on Lalas... They're so huge that they touch the ground ._.

Please... no one defend these. Each and every one of them makes doves cry. The SE team must have been battling a collective hangover when putting pen to paper on this "collection".

Not only aren't there books, but there isn't an axe there either. Still, the Blood Sword and Odin's shield are pretty sick.

I am saddened by the lack of a buyable axe.

I like the colors of the sword, but not sold on the shape.
But it's a casino prize, so I sort of expect it to look a little tacky and overdone.

I think it's suppose to be a Kingdom Hearts reference.

Bow, Daggers, and BLM staff are all recycled from FFXI.

well, seeing as theirs only 1 and I say ONE book in the whole game that I would count as looking somewhat decent, im not surprised they didnt make any for GS. It's Ars Notoria... thats the only book I find nice looking.

I totally agree. Same with the WHM staff. What happened SE, run out of design ideas??? :(

The heart is the BLM weapon. I don't know if you got them confused or not - "broken Astrolabe" is what I'd use to describe the WHM staff (last one.)

----------------------

I'm also rather sad that there isn't an axe or arcanist books. I don't know how many enemies there are that they could've taken them from, though. So hmm. I like the designs of some of the others though - I'd be all over the Heartless (BLM), PLD (when I eventually get it to 50), and the MNK (never getting that to 50) weapons if I didn't have to blow 10k on each. Maybe if I win the Jumbo Cactpot, but no. xD The rest are...meh. Especially the bow.

I can't find the Monk weapon :/
Also, I don't have a T7 screenshot of the Ninja's knifes from the Lamia Deathdancer, but it's definitly from them.

The prizes in the Gold Saucer were added focusing on the weapons from monsters, since there was a particularly high demand to be able to equip them on playable characters.

A lot of the axes were designed for specific monster animations, and they would need many changes to the current design and modelling compared to other types of weapons, so they weren't added this time around.

There aren't actually monsters that equip books yet, and since we would have had to design something completely new, they weren't added this time either.

We'll try to come up with some Gold Saucer-esque designs (but if you have any good ideas we'd definitely like to use them for reference so please let us know!).

When thinking of new prizes for future patches we intend to add both axes and books, so please hang tight for now!

Wait, which mob uses the Crab Monk Claws o.0....
I think the demand for Gigas Knuckles (Or Invisible Knuckles) is much higher since they actually fit to your fists like a glove.

As a fun gag-like book... You know those metal wireframe music stands? One of those made up like a book with sheet music for Sch/SMN/acn

What about something from ff3. I dont think any mobs had books but the jobs the player could play did. Maybe fft as well? Oh!! Weapons from kingdom hearts!

The assets team has to design something new instead of reusing stuffs?

Oh the horror!
