That'd be fine with me. Currently, I'm playing a halfling, so it'd fit right in...

I never really used it to be honest.

Hopefully they'll add scabbards in -- nekked swords are silly.

Any idea where all this stuff is going in? What continent?

"Nine dungeons with revamped art and/or lighting" Which ones?

Yeah, bit sad here. Was hoping to come from work and patch up and play. I thought the patch was going in during reboot time. Now I'm afraid it's going to be during my "play time" and being a larger patch then normal take most/all of it. Oh well, from patch notes it sounds worth it.

they nailed me good. changed my main weapon from pierce to blunt and i cant afford to buy another one even close to as good. saved up all my money to get this one.

Leveling 2 hand is slow so i am out of action until i go from 0-180. And my weapon dosnt even show up anymore. i am fighing now with an invisable cresent staff.

I was talking to Elrar about this before my interview with him and he was telling me how complex it is to do the helms. Apparently you have to make a different helm(of each model) for each head type/possibility. So just think about how many different combinations of heads they can have...that's how many helms they have to create :O So it might be a bit until they can get the coding time in to do that.

I'm more than willing to wait on helms.

However, I will say...as a developer... that that response is a pie-on-face situation.

This 'complexity' did not creep up overnight and helms are pretty 'standard fare' - for them to have not addressed this earlier, content and bugs aside, not the same people, and even were it so - it is irresponsible for them to leave such an obvious 'design' flaw in the release for it only helps the trolls imply others.

I LOVE this game and therefore can forgive much bigger things than that (though, to be honest nothing that gives me trouble during play (other than once every 3 hour CTD max) has happened ) I just hate seeing such a GAPING obvious 'hole' (plus - I probably wouldn't wear the helm visibly if given the option on at least half of my toons, it is the point of it only )
