this may seem like just another holiday event toy, but it actually has a special use. clicking this emerald on a target or even yourself, illuminates the surrounding area for an unknown duration of time. try it out when you find yourself camped in the loping plains in the pitch black.
Lvl?

The Summoned Frostbeard storms summon and hit for a ton. LOL 800 at 68, on a wizzy.

The AOE they cast hurts like heck too.
Avoidance

All i got to say is Booyah! Spellsheen prism is cool to have and great stats, but this hikes up my AC and adds avoidance which is sooo important to those of us on Rampage/heal agro. Or for those of us that Solo Named for fun during off times. :D

Does it look cool?

The important question here is:

Does the effect look cool when you click it?

what are the lvl requirments for the last gem? I have a 65 cleric that could not get the last mission , doesnt seem to make sense when the recomended lvl is 65

You can do it with people under 68. You just have to make sure the level avg is at least 68. Then you should be fine and all those 65 peeps out there can get it. Just have to find enough 70's to raise the lvl avg.

You would think if Required is 55, a lvl 55 could be in the mission. If not, then what is the point of saying the requirement is 55. Might as well say the lvl requirement is 65 or 68 which is ever equal to mission requirement.
Level Range

Yes have to be 68 to get the task kill old frost beard. Had 67 mage in group couldnt get the 4th task. Mabey todays patch will address the level requirement.
range slot use
# Dec 08 2005 at 10:01 AM Rating: Decent
It is too early for my brain, but one should be able to create a hotkey that useses the bandolier to equip your bow, fire an arrow for pulling and then pause and then equip this item back into your range slot for the fight. This isn't necessarily the best option for rangers using the bow full time but for me, a warrior, who only uses my bow to pull makes this item something I really want. Just wonder if it is going to be like most other of these lately where actually trying to get the last mob will require hours and hours of waiting and kill stealing and all that fun stuff.
Bow as primary attack
# Dec 08 2005 at 7:36 AM Rating: Decent
Not all rangers use a bow as thier primary attack. But by then most have a bow much better than this item.

Why range slot of all slots??? What the heck good does this do a ranger who's primary attack is his bow???
Range Slot????

Why make a ranger to begin with? Why is the sky purple? Why ask Why?

I agree completely. If they were going to make it a range slot item, they should at least made it usable in an alternate slot - say neck / range like the gantru charm. Every ranger should /petition. hehe.

It ain't an ideal situation, but at times when regen and avoidance do matter you are mostly not on your bow. You could set up a bandolier setting for it. As said, not ideal, but it's some kind of workaround.
