We're aiming for 10/17 for Celestial and for the runes.The others will be a bit longer, since we need new icon art. But probably November.At least we know now why everything is taking so long.

Crinn.7864 Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 The time required to make the icon itself is probably fairly trivial. The issue likely lies in the fact that the artists that make the icons also have other responsibilities that likely can't have their deadlines moved back.In game studios you don't have a "dedicated icon artist" you just have "artists" who do whatever needs to be done which can include everything from icons to landscape textures.

MyPuppy.8970 Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 Well you need to balance the art so the new amulets dont shine brighter than the old ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you guys for real?They could just use existing PvE exotic/ascended amulet images, doesn't even matter if they don't match the stats.Or recolor exisitng ones, like they did with the marauder/berserker/sinister trio.But if Celestial and the runes come with a balance patch that'll be a lot of new things so I'm okay with the delay.
