I see "twink bait" writen all over this unless some warrior wants this. DPS will be killed as soon as you cast your first spell, and the Db is likely next to nothing.

Perhaps the point is that a 25 delay 2-hander is not exactly great by the time you will see this dropping. Sure, 35/25 looks nice on paper but with no proc and the effective loss of 2-hand damage bonus, it simply is not that good. The longer-delay 2-handers allow casting between swings (with less loss of dps) and the hefty damage bonuses make them often exceptional choices for sheer dps in high-mitigation encounters.
It is not complete crap but it sure isn't all that great. I would like to see the fellow getting a mid-50s twink flagged up and logged out just to loot it though :) That strikes me as a little unlikely.

I don't know what saddens me most..the fact that you're level 65 or that you don't know what you're talking about....or maybe both?

Yes, people will be getting twinks flagged for 2nd tier planes so they can loot no drop equip :P

no i think this is a great weapon. look at ornate greatblade, sure the stats are better since itz a much higher end weapon, but the ratio is not much different from this baby here
second, why do you think a weapon without a proc is bad? a proc over-all does minimal amount of damage compared on your over-all damage your weapon does
another thing, a weapon with higher delay are much more inconsistant. even if they have a high damage bonus, it all evens out in the long run

Perhaps an example will help. At level 58, my SK has a damage bonus of 12 on a two tined corpse pitchfork at delay of 22. With a widebladed greatsword, I believe it was 24 or thereabouts at delay fo 35. About 50% more on the delay with double the damage bonus there. Now, that having been said, I still use the corpse pitchfork for a couple reasons. First is that as an SK I always have a proc - be it lifetap or manatap proc, and either procs more times per fight with the pitchfork. Second is that even ignoring the proc, 26/22 outdamages 35/35 regardless of the damage bonus. I've been regularly hitting for 50-70 with the pitchfork and maxing in the 130 range and my skill hasn't caught up to where it should be yet. With the sword, I was average hitting just under the 100 mark with a max hit around 200. For some reason though, I seem to get more consistent high numbers with the pitchfork, which I have yet to understand. All in all, what it comes down to, is I tear through things a lot faster with the pitchfork despite the lower damage bonus. Pure ratio often means more than a weapon's damage bonus.
