    This argument has been done over and over so much that's it's tiring to even look at now.

    That's all we can hope for. That's the main reason I'm not buying any of these. I'm not paying $35 when we don't even known how they work in game.

    "Pierces armour more effectively, but lacks the augmented punch of a power weapon"

    since when did power weapons have better punching power?
    is it a typo for witch weapons?

    Just in case the ugliest depiction of the Shuriken Catapult of unpleasant color wasn't enough to insult the Eldar community, here comes the finisher, right?
    I'm clearly appalled both at design and at description.
    DESIGN.
    What is this? An ORK CRAFT?
    The Eldar had known how to give a crystal any desired form many millennia before the first primitive life sprung on the home planet of the humans!
    That blue claw stuff does not add to epicness, moreover it is looks impractical and generally inappropriate on a spear.
    And is this thing's heft (plain and dull beyond measure) stuck in a cup, as a pinnacle of the Eldar craft??
    It hurts.
    DESCRIPTION
    Singing spears widely adopted by jetbike riders?! What kind of nonsense is that?
    And this is clearly the singing spear on a picture. Google it.

    And I thought She Who Thirsts was the greatest enemy of the Eldar.
    But if bE continues to treat the Eldar like they do, they are going to steal the title..

  5. It doesn't tell if the spear can be thrown (as in fluff and table)...

    Kind of weird because is power weapons the ones that you spect to punch trough armour...


    I asked Brent about this, it's not confirmed to be able to throw singing spears at launch but it's something they want to add.

    Dio says that Power Weapons do punch through armor, but they don't pack a stronger punch than non-power melee weapons. Their effect is only in ignoring armor. At least that's how I got it)

    I think there is too much over reaction to the AP descriptor to this thing.

    Who is to say there isn't melee weapons that will be in the game that are superior or equal to this one?
    We really don't know anything mechanically let alone how AP/damage to Armor/Health ext works yet, so no need to get all worked up.

    Now if I am going to spend $35 for 2 items I actually expect those items to be equal to top end items in the game.

    So the spear has better AP functionality, thats fine as long as it is equal to other top end spears.

    I honestly don't like any of the Eldar weapon art though.

    Yes as well, I would be all for seeing the Relic models greatly improved.

    Out of all the factions gear, I think SM has the best looking items. Sure hope they rework / improve their appearance.
