So.. the last post was of December 23 and rumors/speculations are still running wild about the drop rate, and classification of this item ( no drop, lore, etc) Anyone have any newer info?
Still drops

Got one off a valiant spirit today. So they do still drop.

have you all noticed the windblade looks a lot like the dwarfs axe on lord of the rings
RE: look

YES
RE: look
# Dec 13 2002 at 10:55 PM Rating: Decent
No, this looks EXACTLY like Gimli's axe, except for the coloration. Check out the Two Towers game on PS2 and you will see.
RE: look
# Dec 12 2002 at 9:02 PM Rating: Default
It is similar but Glimli's axe is single sided the Windblade looks like a double sided one but Glimli's Axe is still 2HS hehe but prob has a lesser dmg since it only has one side but the look is similar in its inlaid design for those who dont watch the movies ...
RE: look
# Dec 13 2002 at 6:02 AM Rating: Default
Gimli has 2 axes, and yes, this does look like his secound axe.

You where not kidding my room mates boy friend works for a local movie chain and she invited me and my GF to go see the screening of the movie that usually just the employees veiw to make sure the film and soundtrack they recieve are of sufficient quality to play the movie on the opening date ... Soooo I got to see LotR the two towers late last night and he sure does bust out his Windblade in the big battle ! But let me warn you peeps alot of things in this second part of the books is way diff than the original movie FYI several things added and many changed or taken away but generally a good watch Bah I prattle on this isnt a movie review post Go buy a windblade they rock !!!

Prices on Fennin Ro seem to have settled on a low of 30k and a high of 45k. The average price seems to be 35k.

Disregard "rumors" of nerfing or any such thing you may have heard. These blades are plentiful, and most 55+ knights can be seen wielding them regularly, as well as 4-6 mules selling them in the Bazaar at any given time.

I heard the rumors as well, but from casual observation, these stories were probably created to raise the selling price.

All you have to do is ask yourself one thing, how in the world can a weapon this incredible still appear in the Bazaar regularly for 30k?

Flame this post if you are one of the "sellers" who doesn't want this information to be seen. Give this post a good rating if you want to balance out the negative ratings by selfish jerks.

Actually the drop rate was nerfed pretty badly some time ago. For awhile they were way too common.
TOO bad it does nt drop anymore
# Dec 03 2002 at 4:54 PM Rating: Default
Well guys i hate to say it but i herd that this will not drop again
RE: TOO bad it does nt drop anymore
# Dec 06 2002 at 12:27 PM Rating: Default
That's been the rumour for a long time. They have also said they might make it no drop. But they have not come out and said ANYTHING.

so please stop speculating!
Hoax or Truth
# Dec 01 2002 at 11:47 PM Rating: Decent
Can anyone confirm that these have really been nerfed. I know on the Karana server there have been several of these type tricks pulled, where the higher guilds farm items endlessly, state that they have become lore and sell the "non-lore" versions for triple price. I do think i saw it in a patch message, but cant find it anywhere that this has really happened. So if anyone from other servers knows for real id really like to know as i cant get to the zone that this drops in

RARE
# Nov 26 2002 at 10:36 PM Rating: Excellent
I notice that the listing on this item has been changed from common to rare. On Quellious the price has moved from about 30k last week to 60k and up. I've also had tells from members of the servers top tier guild trying to buy this weapon from me....weird since they were the ones selling them for 30k a week ago:) I think they nerfed the drop hard and now everyone wants one....this is by far the niceset dropable 2hs I've seen. This is kind of the same thing verant did with Str of Grodan too.
better buy them now
# Nov 26 2002 at 4:14 PM Rating: Default
Yup you can still buy these cheap. That may be a function of there are still a lot of Windblades out there and peeps have not figured out that the supply has been cut off. In fact I know some people who farmed 8 WBs, one for each character slot to hold when these were falling out of the sky.

So you better buy then now if you are gonna.

Heheh - Hard to believe.

Either the person selling was an absolute loon or you're having us on.

Since we always give the benefit of the doubt, the seller was a complete loon.

You Lucky Sod !! :P
Nerfed in last patch
# Nov 26 2002 at 3:17 PM Rating: Decent
Yar these have been nerfed. They don't drop off yard trash anymore. I don't think anyone knows where they drop now (or even if they do drop anymore) If you were fortunate to buy one before the nerfage....great cuz prices are going up now. I would expect a sword of this caliber to sell for 100k to 200k.
Has it or Has it not ?
# Nov 24 2002 at 11:46 PM Rating: Decent
Hi ,

Someone knowledgable pls answer if possible (meaning someone who knows the answer and not speculating). Has this item been nerfed and if so is it a rare or common drop. Or is Verant / Sony (bend over son - this ain't gonna hurt) gonna make it a no drop ? Pls advise :)

On Torvo server the highest I seen was a nut trying to sell it for 100K and the average was around 35 - 40. Got mine for 30 luckily.

I can't give you a certain answer although I have yet to see one drop since the last patch. Also from the friends I have working on the "inside" they said that to thier knowledge it's not a nerf. Once again I'm not certain however I would say that SoE wanted to give us a little taste of some good stuff before they took it out, as always. Smiley: frown
Prices
# Nov 21 2002 at 3:49 PM Rating: Default
Last night i saw one for 25k and one for 35k, on Terris Thule this is, and today i look and there are still 2 for sale but one for 100k and the other for 150k, i heard the drop rate was nerfed but is this massive price increase necessary or do i just play on a rip-off server?
RE: Prices
# Nov 22 2002 at 6:37 PM Rating: Default
I know a couple of peeps were out of their feakin' minds the last few days on TT. That's why they are still for sale at that price. They won't sell them for that but at the 25-35kpp price they do tend to move nicely.

# Nov 20 2002 at 3:35 AM Rating: Default
goes around 6-8k on AB
#REDACTED, Posted: Nov 19 2002 at 10:17 AM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) I'm on Morell Thule, and it seems like you can't throw a rock without hitting someone using this weapon LOL. I've seen prices vary from 29-30k last I checked. I'd love to get one, but 1. expensive! and 2. I try to be unique and use different gear than the norm (but if I had the money hell, I'd be conformist hehe)
RE: Dropped like candy?
# May 26 2003 at 2:26 PM Rating: Default
Well, for the first month or two or PoP these dropped like dirty rain in Seattle, hence the volume...the drop rate was promptly changed into near non-existence...but I digress.

Ratio-wise, this is the best droppable weapon in the game that I can think of off the top of my head...its price and popularity reflected that, although every time I see a Warrior with one I'm forced to shake my head and laugh...but that's just me.
#REDACTED, Posted: Nov 18 2002 at 8:08 AM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) No longer dropping... if so, VERY rare.

Can anyone verify this info pref on Mithaniel Marr Just curious if this is true server wide or just someone trying to drive prices up... no offense hehe

I can't verify it as I don't hunt there but going by the Bazaar trends on Bristlebane the influx has slowed down and the price has now held at 30k for the last few nights.
I've not seen more than 3 for sale for a few days, whereas before it was 4 or 5 and sometimes more at weekends, with the price dropping to 17k.
It'll be unfortunate for anyone that didn't get one, if this is the case.
RE: Status
# Nov 20 2002 at 12:13 PM Rating: Decent
Cool thanks for info yeah i see bazaar influx has droped and prices are stablizing but I think it wont be all bad for as some have stated the "damage has been done" to the 2hnd market for exaple i saw when doing some pricing info some decent 2hndrs like Argent Protector and Acryla Halbered for sale for cheap and the most amazing thing i saw was a Narandis Lance on sale for 28k! I mean the dmg delay on this weap is better than naradi but that Proc is mean dmg per second if anyone doesnt respect it go to naggys layer and fight with the Lava Duct Crawler spiders in the bug room and see your hps drop the over all effect is low like 150hps or so but the hps are drained so quickly and the proc is really easy to go off in my opinion and experience...

Fennin Ro
# Nov 15 2002 at 5:56 AM Rating: Default
These are 10-15k now. and no one wants to buy it, i think they said it was gonna be made nodrop and thats why price going down. Ive seen 5ppl selling it at the same time too hehe.
RE: Fennin Ro
# Nov 19 2002 at 12:57 PM Rating: Good
Nobody wants to buy it? Are the melees on FR on crack? This thing kicks butt. My frosty cost that much and it isn't even close to this nice.

Usually prices get jacked way up just before an item goes No Drop.
