to the druids who want this for dmg dly, here is what you would see if you meleed

"An ice giant hits YOU, for 111dmg"
"An ice giant hits YOU, for 117dmg"
"An ice giant bashes YOU, for 32dmg"
You are stunned.
"An ice giant hits YOU, for 98dmg"
"An ice giant hits YOU, for 112 dmg"
"An ice giant hits YOU, for 9dmg"
"An ice giant kicks YOU, for 28dmg"
You are unstunned
"An ice giant hits YOU, for 111dmg"
"An ice giant hits YOU, for 48dmg"
"An ice giant bashes YOU, for 32dmg"
You are stunned
"An ice giant hits YOU, for 117dmg"
"An ice giant hits YOU, for 98dmg"
You are bleeding to death!
"An ice giant hits YOU, for 117dmg"
You have been slain by An ice giant
LOADING..PLEASE WAIT
You have lost level 58!
Returning to home point
"random_necro#1 says: shoulda kitted it, but you wanted that damn sword so you could melee"
/ignore random_necro#1
-------------------------------------------------
End of story, you wanna melee as a druid, play a ranger.

BTW you wouldnt be hunting these at 58, just an example, mobs 50+ all hit for double 120dmg or higher(ice well sentries come to mind) try and melee solo..you would get yur *** handed to you unless the mob was green 25 levels ago, feal free to flame me =)

A druid can melee when that ***** of a mob starts to try to escape, and that is only when. I know plenty of druids who can kite and melee plenty of the things they kill. Don't try to tank but always remember you can save mana.
RE: hm...
# Dec 11 2002 at 1:41 AM Rating: Decent
Why do you think we druids max out any Weapon skill at 175? Druids only should melee when the mob is not attacking (when he's below a bubble of health). Fear Kiting is an exception, because your whacking them in the butt while they are scared hehe.

melee caster(druid this time) another nice idea - just check ur skill in 1hs -
bards after recent patches is put on warior
skill cap table in melee skills ( not in defensive ofcuz), estimate I can do about 600-1000hp dmg (SC handwraps + 45% speed song) to green/light blue/blue giants in Kael (NOT THE ARENA MOB's)
u can try ur estimate made dmg - no haste at all, im dual wielding two weapons, u have only one,
ur offensive skill and 1hs skill is 175 and offense is 200,
http://www.eqdruids.com/misc/skills.htm
I gaved u maxed skill caps at 60, if I would be maxed at 60 i would have 250 in 1hs

( 56 Bard atm)

I have both skills over 200 ( something like 230 and 235 righ now)

roughly I think ur dmg will be around 200hp/min

so better:
1) med for 50sec and make one nice big nuke/dot;
2) get item with manna free nukes/dots
Where best to put this?

A 20/34 Weapon is a great ratio weapon. I think you'd find that a the level of the game where you could get this item, it wouldn't be unreasonable to give to a warrior, rogue, or ranger for off hand use. Paladins, Shadowknights your better off using a sword of the morning/Noc blade as speed will help your taunt greatly and as a meat shield thats what will matter. Let the rogues and the monks do the damage, you job is to take the damage. As far as wasting the 100 mana, yes it would be nice if whoever got that could use it, but lets be honest, this is a weapon, and its the dmg ratio that matters. There are a lot of better primary hand items out there for druids.
just an opinion
# Jun 03 2001 at 8:06 PM Rating: Decent
Well my opinion is this: Being a Paladin I would love this weapon. I could most definatly use the added mana plus the damage process is incredible, especially now that Im lvl 40, plus Im slightly lacking on my 1hs its only at 165, compared to my 2hs which is at 199. As for a druid not using this is just crazy. For one thing even if they arent fighing with a weapon and only casting the added mana would come in handy. Theres no reason not to..now as far as warriors are concerned its a waste..the only reason I would think they would want one is to equip a shield and there are plenty of 1hs's for that.

well after reading most of these post i have come to the conclusion. nearly no one absolutely needs this weapon. But out of the few classes that can equip it rangers, bards, and druids seem to get the best effect out of it. i don't know many sk or pallies that would use this because they can't duel wield so they go with a 2hs. granted they do use 1hs but that's usually to keep the skill up just in case. reason why i say druids is because epic weapon procs don't stack if memmory serves me right. if i'm going against a upper lvl creatures that casts necro etc type spells than this will definitely help. although epic is the best weapon for your class doesn't mean the only weapon how many melee weapons do you meleers have and you tell me you wouldn't switch off.

most ppl won't use this all the time unless twinked regardless ;-)

this isnt for druids,im a druid and i know this. first of all if a druid gets this tey will just sell it, another thing is you should be almost done or HAVE your epic by the time you should be fighting this dragon, give this weap to Hybrids.. cause that is all i see with this weapon.
RE: LOL
# Jul 19 2001 at 10:32 PM Rating: Default
im a druid also and higher than u and yes i would use this weapon. And no you shouldnt have ur epic by the time u can get this. Druid epic is considered very easy but take into account that hardly anyone will help you. And even when u do get help you still must get a jade reaver (which is constantly farmed)

Im a lv 35 druid.I solo thats it.SOLO. Only time I group is for a specific item or such for for short term.
I die less when I solo.I also do most my damage while in MELEE!!!.***GASP*** A caster meleeing , shock.I hate kiting, its a pain. Ive been there doone it and will do if I have to,but I hate it.Id love to have this weapon! It rules.As good delay as runed falchion and lots more dam dealing. Id love to know the going price for this baby.I saw offered once in FP but didnt even ask.

YEAH that's what we need is more druids who melee! yeah we're actually fairly good at it, plus we can't do much else...we might as well get into the fight for that extra damage! too bad my 1hs sucks
RE: excuse me
# Jun 04 2001 at 5:36 AM Rating: Default
Your 35th level, by the time your 57-60 where you'd have a shot at this weapon you won't be meleeing. Being hit for 160,160,60 will make your 30 dmg shots seem pathetic and your tactics will change.
RE: excuse me
# Sep 30 2001 at 3:28 PM Rating: Decent
now i find this amusing. i'm currently at 44 going onto 45. i dont melee very often, unless im either kiting and dont want to waste the mana finishing off the mob, or when im with a group of friends messing around. now go ahead and flame me all you want, but i would take this weapon not only for the dmg/dly, but for the 100 mana. but since i am only lvl 44 or so, i doubt i'll see it anytimes soon.

#Anonymous, Posted: May 13 2001 at 6:08 AM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) This is not a ******* melee weapon people. The 100 mana and the fact its a SCIMITAR (druid type weapon) is what makes it good for druids and them mainly. Just because something is all/all doesnt mean its good for all classes you idiots. You don't see paladins wearing guardian robes cuz they can, because that would be a waste of the damn thing.
#Anonymous, Posted: Jun 04 2001 at 5:40 AM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) 100 mana means very little. By the time you can get this item (57-60th level) a 100 mana item would be nice but not a major bonus. Much better items out there for a druid that don't have such good ratio's. Why is it whenever a dr00d sees a scimitar they always think dr00d weapon?? Most dr00ds at this level if given this would sell it, likely to a rogue or ranger.

Ok so everyone has staked their claim for this item going to their class. Let me put it this way: assuming I dont already have something better, If i'm one of the classes listed as able to use this weapon and I want to go on a Wuoshi raid I will check the loot rules before I go - if they state that my class cant roll on the weapon I won't get all hostile, I'm just not going on the raid!!



umm moron
# May 08 2001 at 10:03 PM Rating: Default
guilds capable of killing wuoshi dont roll for uber items like this. Officers or the loot director of the guild decide who gets the item they award it to the person who will get the most use of it. In this case a warrior bard rogue or ranger.

Ok any guild that can kill Wuoshi would not give this to a druid.. Ive seen about a dozen people using this weapon almost all of them warriors and 1 rogue why? because this is one of the best pre sleepers Offhand weapons for a warrior. If u say ur a druid and u have this Your either a ******* Liar, traded for it, or bought it off ebay. and Dont say u cant trade for it because I have seen a few for sale in DL trading for Lodizal shields and stuff like that..

heheh, my guild only considers druids for this weapon...everyone else has better already and don't ask to be considered for it. The 100 mana and RESISTs are great. I've seen 3 drop and 3 druids (only one's without epic) got a new sword.
Rogues!

I'm a druid.
I was awarded this weapon and I was using a Tunarien Scimitar prior(8/19 +6 wis +40mana)

The melee classes in my guild are already giving me crap about this b/c I was awarded it on the basis of needed resists.

Either be prepared to deal with this should you be awarded the scimmy from a raid or just pass it on to someone else.
Great Druid Item

Hey...I got killed twice while grouped against Woushi. I worked hard for this thing and I won the lotto and I have every right to carry it or trade it as I see fit.
I see there are a lot of people out there who want to tell me what to do with my rightful winnings. For them I will be sure to salute them should I see them on my server with scim in hand.
REAL wis/mana ratio
# Apr 23 2001 at 1:57 AM Rating: Default
Just to tell you people....
10 Wisdom does NOT always=100 mana
The equation for wis/int is (wis/int) x (level x 0.2) = mana
this does not include plus mana items you may have.
so for example: at level 5, with 150 wis (or int), the equation would be
(150) x (5 x 0.2)
(150) x (1)
150 mana
so this mean that yes, at lvl 50, 10 wis would = 100 mana, but at that level and ONLY at that level.

#Anonymous, Posted: Apr 13 2001 at 12:26 AM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) If there was a ranger/warrior/rogue in the group, and a druid had the nerve to say he wanted to be in on the roll for it... I'd beat him about the face, chest, neck, and head. You're a druid, you don't need a sword or ANY weapon. So shut your blathering pie-hole and stick with your paw/testament/cgs for casting power. I don't care what the stats on it are, if you don't melee, you don't get the weapon... capiche?

Best non-Sleepers Tomb or Veeshans Peak offhand weapon for Warriors, Better ratio than epic... Offhand is only ratio for warriors, It would be a WASTE on a Paladin or SK since it's pretty bad if you only used it in one hand... and Pallies and SK's who would be fighting Wuoshi should have better 2hs weapons anyway... Wurmslayer is better ratio for primary hand than it too so it would be an extreme waste on an SK or Pally

Good on Warriors, Rogues & Rangers

As a weapon this is merely OK. Yes on the surface a 20/34 weapon would look nice. yes, the numbers look great, but for one thing...
TOO DAMN SLOW!
Druid, have your little scimmy, I won't make you cry. =)
RE: Hmm
# Mar 19 2001 at 6:44 PM Rating: Default
It's equal to a 10/17 in your offhand since ratio is the only thing that counts in offhand... Low taunt too so probably good for rangers

Lol, everyone is trying to say a druid will get this, why? because it has 100mana. There are much nicer items out there, so unless you are twinking a newbie (which no one will allow you to) this sword is pretty useless to druids. As well, rangers, paladins, and shadowknights will have the biggest improvement from this weapon. Its a 1hslashing weapon, which all three constantly use, it has extra mana for whatever we want to do, and its got extra poison/disease resist, and i know how much i hate being poisoned or diseased from melee procs of creatures.

Once you hit the 200 in wisdom, this +100 mana is like gold. I honestly believe that a druid who would get this sword, already has 200 in wisdom, so I'd say, unless he has his epic, a druid should use this weapon.

This weapon has ranger written all over it... Druids hardly EVER melee so count them out, too good of dmg/dly to waste. Rogues and bards I don't even have to say anything about... A shadowknight get too superior of one handed weapons to get this, I mean heck, they can pick up a MoSS for 5k, 19/29 +10 int. A ranger and warrior pretty much get the same type of weapons so it would next goto either warrior,then paladin IMO. But warriors probably get counted out, which shouldn't be the case... The reason I say warriors over pallies is because even though the mana will waste, the dmg/dly is so much of an improvement to the Warriors 1h then the pallies... Just my 2cp...

Hey what I think is pallys are better off with 2 h slash because they don't get duel weild but...i think Rangers would use this fine because they do get dule weild and they meele (which this is good for) and they need extra manna because like pallys they are part fighter and with there higher level spells they use up Manna really quick and warriors PLEASE they would be wasting a great wepon for all warriors out there Go get a better wepon there are plenty out there were you won't be using up one of it's great powers get a Yak or a wurm slayer that is very common for warriors

Excellent post, other than the subject. You touched upon pretty much everything, but no need to be obnoxious about it. Agreed, however, that this would be better off in the hands of a hybrid. And before you angry druids start, I am simply stating that OVERALL it would be more effective for a hybrid. Yes, 100 mana from one items rocks. But with it's stats, would be better suited for a melee class.

Do druids really get into melee if they don't have to? I know there is a cap on how much mana you can get by having high int/wis, and I believe items that add mana bypass this cap. And who wouldn't want +20 to a couple resists? This weapon rocks for any class that can use it - especially druids.
RE: You are all stupid
# Feb 17 2001 at 1:33 AM Rating: Default
+100 mana is equal to about 10 wis for a druid. So is a +10 wis +20 sv pos +20 sv dis 20/34 1hs bad for a druid? No way in Hell bro, in fact its prob one of better items for a druid.

Heck, I'd even use it, and I'm a warrior. Why? The resistance boosts, for one, but also because it's got a good damage/delay ratio. Then once I got somethint else (not necessarily something better), I'd sell it for a nice chunk of change.
