Might have a little trouble getting to the camp, but once you're there and have broken the camp, you should have no problem.
Duoing with somone who can ITU and / or paci would be a huge help in getting to the Chef. The live and undead mobs are separated well enough, but since you cannot ITU or paci, you're going to have to fight your way there or have a partner escort you.
I recently came back to EQ. I am on Luclin server. My friend just bought me one of these. I know it wont be good at low lvls, though it will be insane at high end. And how can you not love the graphic, and the name? Gomdurig! It doesn't even have the type of weapon in it's name, like alot of things nowadays. and the proc won't really make a mob on a raid or such agro you, the warrior should still be doing more damage. And btw, rogues EVADE.

everyone is talking about rogues and such, but this is also a GREAT weapon for rangers pre-epic. If you dont want to get your epic or whatever, this is a good secondary i think.
Question does this weapon have a recommended lvl on it... Im looking for a nice weapon to start using with higher damage than the Sebilite Croaking Dirk... which is 10 dam 18 delay..
The *average* price on this is incorrect. When I posted the price it was selling for in the TT bazaar, my reported price was listed about 10 times in a row. Please ignore the current average price.
Does the Backstab Mod stack with other Backstab Mods i.e. if I had this in my primary 5% with a secondary with 3% (Sarnak Spine Dagger) would I get an 8% mod?
I'm not quite sure why anyone would pay the average 15k or so (or more I guess) for this dagger. It has a worse ratio than the legendary dagger of might, and slightly worse stats. It is better for 1 extra damage and I think just a little bit on the BS mod (which may make a world of difference). For this level of item it would seem like a rogue would have the RB in main, and maybe the Legendary in off. I mean, the legendary has better stats, and drops like candy in Droga (sell for as low as 1k). I'm still a young rogue though so I do know much about the mechanics of high end rogue play.
my question to you is.... Why not have your skills hot keyed together? Proc's don't affect my 56 rogue at all. Everytime I BS I attempt to evade all in one shot. Anyway. Best way to keep your aggro down.
BTW this weapon rocks... I have this and the legendary dagger of might in my offhand. 483 max bs so far. But I'm not so sure I can't get higher yet.
i also offhand the LDoM with this in primary. at 52 it was a nice upgrade from the LDoM/Bile Drenched combo i had before. the 115point proc rocks and surprisingly i get less aggro with this in main than when i main hand the fsbd. although the fabled does do 300point total overtime it's way slower. of course i do evade after backstabs but it depends on thetank. some have INSANE taunt. so i only evade every 3 bs's.
I use one on my 65 Rogue. 115hp dd proc is not going to push your aggro over the edge. If it were a debuff it might, but I haven't had any issues with it. Kinda makes me wonder about your experience... You know that Rogues can evade to reduce their aggro..? =o)
It has a 2% higher mod and one more damage so the BS damage is gonna be higher all around. It also is not restricted to bard and rog only and has a pretty nice proc, and everyone loves da procs.
Got mine a little while back as a bounce of a guild raid. A lot of overkill as we had about 25 peeps, but we got two right off the bat. Back to back spawns. We camped trying to get a third for another guildie rogue, but the I discovered why this is such a terrible camp. 12 hours later he had not spawned again. Most of the guild was gone ... we were down to one group. After we called it he spawned once for for the last guy there and his bot. We resumed camping him with renewed spirits the next day ... but didn't see him again after 8 hours or so.
Anyways, with RB main and Gom off my max BS went up to 591. And my max Duelist BS is up to 1108. Proc varies in damage an awful lot ... but I've been doing a lot of raid mobs lately now that I think about it. I think it probably stays at 115 on regular XP mobs. It's tons of fun to have this, Shissar's poison, and NDT cast on you ... procs galore.
Last time I saw one for sale on $tormhammer, it was going for about 60k. *shrug* Don't know there.

its selling for 5-8K on xegony right now, and its not that xegony economy is messed up, its just that ther are a lot of level 65 toons with near max AA on his server with lots of plat to spend, and a smart seller knows a trendy item like this will sell higher than its worth for a short time, the prices have dropped alot now. the same thing happened to the Razor-edged Shan'Tok, which has unusual graphic at its intor and sold much higher than it was worth for a short while.
I noticed there is NO RECOMMENDED LEVEL on this, which just about makes it the best darn rogue twink weapon you can find. One question though, what lvl does it proc at???
I saw one in bazaar today 7-2-03. it DOES have a recommended lvl of 50. i know the screenshot doesn't haveit, maybe they changed it ince this pick or maybe because it was from stormhammer server...whatever the case it DOES have a recommended lvl....50
This drops off an undead chef, upstairs in the building with the blue flame. This is near the highborn area. His ph is a revenant in a small room by himself. Just got mine tonight thanks to my wonderful guildmates: Eleran, Akii, Senzi, and Calini :)
Pinetoast Shadowberry Rogue of the Furious Pantaloons Solusek Ro
Got this last night, and on my 62 Rogue it took his maximum BS from 553 (non-crit) to as high as 571 (non-crit). The proc does cause some aggro, but just stay on that "evade" hotkey when the mob starts lovin ya.
Hopefully Sony has a few more of these type drops for those of us not yet able to make it into those zones where the really good BS modified weaps drop.
