Steam Sale is here and along with it new "f2p game" items to get with crafting badges.

This time, you can acquire the gold variants of the iron wolf and dragon costumes/accessories!

Lets hear it for the wolves!

No dragons this year apparently.

But this is essentially a "Storm wolf" pack, so I suppose it's okay. I'm always game for more yellow accessories and costumes!

33 Gold Dragon Wings crafted already. Guess these won't be as rare as the iron ones.

To be expected

33 Gold Dragon Wings crafted already. Guess these won't be as rare as the iron ones.
If I can recall, the iron dragon wings were the highest level of rarity, and this time around that rarity level doesn't exist(for Spiral Knights at least).

Unless the Dragon armor set exists in that rarity tier? :C The announcement only says wolf but the image on Facebook has the dragon one too.

Iron Wolf Armor / Iron Dragon Armor 2000 (normally 3500)
(if they're on sale does that mean they'll be regularly on depot?)

That's a good point

The helmet is probably the storm helmet, but the armor might be in a higher tier.

I guess I assumed they would show all the levels of items, even if they didn't say what they were on the steam page, like the holiday sale. I guess we'll just have to wait and see!

oh, the wings are "Extraordinary" instead of "Precious" (and there are a few Precious items up there). I wonder if SK has a Precious item this time around.

"Iron Dragon Wings 75000

"Iron Dragon Wings 75000 E"

Never heard of anything so ridiculous as spending over $150 on a tiny piece of video game bling.

Wasn't there a thread talking about if you could buy a costume piece for $20, would you do it? Well, now we will actually see what people are going to do.

Just wait it out for the Winter Steam sale.
No doubt the missing parts will show up in the supply depot, just in time for the Rage Wolf set.

I'm pretty sure we already have several "full golden outfits"; see Mawashimono. The new dragon helm is basically identical to the one from the storm promotion to boot.

But these ones might peirce the eyeballs of many and may even blind some of us...

Has science gone too far?

Edit: Pardon my scrubness, but who is mawashimono? I don't mean to derail, op. :x
These forums need some sort of Pm thingy.

Mawashimono

Mawashimono, former Guild Master of Lionheart guild and Fashion Appreciation thread founder, was forcibly relocated back to Rescue Camp to oversee the training and organization of new crash landers as penance for, well, just making us look bad. Her adventures as the Dragon Princess , however, continue in her Chronicles in the Treasure Vault , but it's unlikely she'll return to active gaming duty.

I've taken her place. If she contacts you or anyone else claiming that I am her evil nemesis who has stolen her identity and all her threads, do not believe her.

Per the gold dragon wings, I think they are mah-ve-lous but they have the same problem that storm wings have, which is to say, they do not match regal gear, which has a flatter golden-tan tone to it. (Let it never be said that I am stingy with commas.) So while you can put a sunshine aura on the dragon line's most fabulous armor, namely the Radiant Silvermail (which is actually more golden) and grab yourself a wise owlite shield in one hand and an argent peacemaker in the other, the subtle difference can be obscured but not erased.

Until we have some kind of gold dragon armor, the gold dragon wings will remain a primo accessory in search of the perfect armorous resting place.
(But, yeah, I still want 'em!)

And, wow, those iron dragon costume pieces and accessories on sale in the supply depot for the price of a major internal organ sure look drab. It didn’t stop me from making a nice-looking set with prismatic dragon wings and a hacker aura for all my fighting against constructs, plus a few other accessories, but still, the color leaves a lot to be desired. (I’ll try to post pics later.)

Can someone upload a side-by-side comparison of the Gold Dragon Helmet & Storm Dragon Helmet?

For whats its worth, the Gold

For whats its worth, the Gold Dragon set is not some super secret rare Steam item if thats what anyone was thinking.

The gold dragon set is not on that page. Just wings.

How does that prove it's NOT super secret and rare?

does the other games have super secret and rare items that are not listed in the summer rewards lists? i mean does TF2 have super secret rate item that dont appear on that list?

because if they do then yes that would mean the gold dragon set could be super secret and rare, if those games then dont have super secret rare items then no.

Steam's Community Market is selling these items for real cheap.

http://imgur.com/e3Cai9d If you have a Steam account, get these from the market, otherwise your ripping yourself off. Gold Dragon Wings
are unavailable at the moment.
