As anyone interested in this topic probably knows, in game preview doesn't always show parts of the previewed object (particle effects, transparent parts ...), and it is especially bad with sylvari cultural stuff (Warden's / T3)
So I have taken some screenshots of a few items. Hopefully, others will contribute I am playing a guardian, so most of guardian weapons are represented. I am missing mace and shield, working on it, but karma doesn't grow on trees (pun intended). I will obviously miss weapons unavailable to guardians, so hopefully someone else can screenshot them

Thanks for the screen shot.  so the Torch is actually a Blue Flame? or is it White?

[Flaming_Foxx]

Thank you so much!
I originally thought that the Sylvari T3 cultural weapons were just depressingly lack-lustre, but they actually look pretty cool.

[phani_kaushik]

Just curious...do the cultural weapons have any particle effects?

[Ivybelle]

Thanks for these pictures! My Sylvari warrior will be 80 soon and I've saved up the karma jugs to get her the Longbow and axes. I'll post pictures of those when I get them if no one else has done so by then.

EDIT:
The longbow looks the same as the preview, the axes are beautiful.

I think only the torch does.

Thanks for the pictures! Unfortunately I only have the staff (which you already have). Maybe when I get some other characters to 80 I'll be able to take some screens when I get the weapons =]

Bluish white I'd say. A little bit paler but similar to guardian's fire

Nothing flashy, but the crystal parts are nicely translucent.

[Wieland1]

Nice pics, keep them coming in

[Aperkelerps]

Thanks for posting the pics. I've had my eye on the Sylvari Cultural staff for quite some time but haven't pulled the trigger on making the purchase yet.

[boxterduke]

Thanks for posting the pics, I gotta get that Torch for my Guardian although I don't use torch all that much but its nice to have all the weapons that a character can use

[Wieland1]

Heya, as promised, the final guardian weapons that were missing on my first post :

Shield (clipping issues with T3 armor, so I took a running shot)


Mace

[Shrimps]

Thanks for this gallery! Btw someone who has the T3 daggers should post a pic

[coldredhands]

It shall be so. t3 dagger, on medium and high shaders.

[Umie]

wow thanks for this thread. im a huge fan of sylvari t3. i couldnt find any proper previews before buying the GS and staff on my guard, but i lucked out cuz i loved them. the shield, axes, SB and dagger are beautiful and will be getting them on my ranger.

[boxterduke]

Wow those daggers. I'm so getting the T3 weapons for my Necro once I level her. I'm glad I made her a Sylvari as well, that way the weapons would suit her.
