I agree that they might not do that for weapons that they sold for cash. But, they could do it for future weapons that they introduce.

yeah, its what I meant. 
Iâm not trying to be argumentative here. Just my thoughts. I understand that Glory was harder to come by just a few months ago. With the TH changes, and glory keys giving glory as well; Glory is much easier to come by. This game thrives on a level playing field (Many will argue this). I just donât understand the change. Those are my thoughts, and itâs good to hear from others.

I do believe that ânewâ weapons in the future may be offered in the rewards tab for glory. I think the chief reason they arenât at this moment is that every âeventâ weapon (as in every weapon you canât unlock through mastery) has already been offered for glory at one point or another and you canât have 2 of the same weapon so if it was a reward player who got it last time would have to pass. I think a middle ground would to have an occasional âdoubleâ event where an old weapon is released for glory with a new troop so that thoses who already have the weapon can still get a weekly reward
Our plan is to cycle old free event weapons back into the game in some fashion.
Unsure exactly how weâll do that yet, they may appear in glory-reward bundles, but I wouldnât rule out having them appear in small $5 bundles⌠weâd ideally like to add some really small high-value bundles to the game, in the theory that a lot of players who are playing for free might actually give us $5 in much the same way as you might tip your barista or cab driver for good service.

Thatâs the thing I was saying above, I couldnât pay even 1$ to unlock everything in the game (if that was an option). Average salary in my country is 180$ for a month, until 2 years ago we didnât have any laws considering internet transactions. Itâs just opening up here, so I literally donât have a way to buy anything.
And donât get me wrong if I had a way to spend some money on the game, I would find a way to afford to spend thar money on GoW. .

Would it be possible to make the weapons be available in the glory and gem chests as well? Only obtainable once, and those who already has them wont have the nightmare of getting them again. That would give every player a fair chance to obtain the weapon(s) for free, I am mostly thinking of those that canât even give 1 dollar.
I think this is a great price point. I would surely pick them up for $5.

Extremly good news it is. I would also.

Small $5 bundles is a great idea. In general, I donât have a problem with micro-transactions for games that are worth my money. Gems of War is DEFINITELY worth my money and Iâve already spent like $15 on it. The only thing preventing me from spending more is that there arenât enough âmicroâ transactions. The only purchases I can make now are $25-$50 and I really canât mentally justify that kind of expenditure for a free-to-play game.

@Sirrian youâre onto something bringing coffee to the game!
Why not zoidberg? Have a glory costing or gem costing area in the store that lists all the weapons that are from events just like armour.
That great news @Sirrian. Iâve bought up to VIP5, and have about $70 of credit burning a hole in my pocket. I would just like to see more attractive bundles, period. Iâve purchased daily gems, a few time the daily maps and souls. Iâve also bought in to the arcane pack this week, and the DK armor. Those options appeared to have real value, but most of the bundles lately havenât appealed to me. It would be nice if you bought the $50 legendary pack, it actually came with enough traitstones to complete it.
P2W territory there.

it is already P2W, that is how freemium game typically work. Adding 6 more arcanes would simply make the bundle more attractive. I mean, you could simply buy the venoxia pack and then the arcane pack this week and have the same end result.
None of this is âPay-to-Win.â
All items in game (with the exception of the aforementioned weapons) are available to committed players, except the Death Knight Armor, and that is only an efficiency boost. âPay-to-Winâ refers to a model wherein free players simply cannot compete with paying players, irrespective of time commitment. Thatâs just not the case in GoW.

Exactly, I think you meant the Death Knight armor, and even in that instance it only improve resource collection efficiency, and not how well your team performs.
Yes, thanks. Editing my comment.
I whole heartedly agree that there is no P2W in this game, and spending $50 on a legendary and fully traiting it is quite overboard and would be considered P2W. Itâs hard to argue that someone spent $200 and has a fully traited dragon team at lvl 100 is not P2W. The bundle may be more attractive, but the âdangling carrotâ keeps us all playing.
