This is the best Druid neck peice out there. Look at the wis 7. The most out there for the neck slot that I know of. And 8 ac? wow Only $ peice have more. 7 cha for charming. str, agl, sta is always nice for any class. And the resists, WOW! All that and mana and hp to boot! Only thing we can't use is the int, and maybee the haste. Any class would be lucky to get this. Caster's like Druids should get to roll for this too, not just melee. This is the best peice out there for them too.

QUEST: Key to Sleepers Tomb
# Jan 30 2001 at 8:11 PM Rating: Default
Jaled Dar's Shade wishes you to wake the Sleeper, who is encased within his tomb. He needs the Talismen from 1 of 5 dragons of the first brood in order to open the door.

These Dragons are Lord Yelinak, Sontalak, Lendiniara, Klandicar and Zlandicar.

One of the reasons people play this game is to collect the rarest things they can. The game goes a long way beyond just fighting... unless your a warrior... wait, a warrior probably wrote that, nevermind.

This Talisman is one of the dragon talismans u need in order to complete the sleepers tomb key quest.
Better be...
# Jan 30 2001 at 10:14 AM Rating: Default
I have spent months gaining faction with dragons. All I have to say is this: There better be an item similar to this that I can either:

a) get off the boss in Kael
b) get from a quest FROM Yelinak
c) get from quests in WW or ToV

or I'm gonna whine about it for a long time ;)
RE: Better be...BUT
# Jan 30 2001 at 8:03 PM Rating: Default
Zlandicar in Necropolis drops a Similar Talisman just without the Haste. He's a rogue dragon so not on Claws/Yelinak faction. Problem is if you ever plan on going to Sleeper's Tomb you need to get one of these talisman's (5 possible Talisman's but you only need 1 to get the key) and then give the Talisman to Jaled Dar's Shade in Necropolis.

Zlandicar's Talisman is called First Brood Talisman if you want to find it's stats. Not sure if it was ever posted here, but EQlizer gameznet.com/eq had it posted.

Only other of the 5 dragons I remember the name of that has a quest Talisman is Klandicar in West Wastes and believe he actually gives a quest to Obtain his.

By all that is UNHOLY!

The Ultimate Carrot at the end of the Verant XP stick. Build a character up forever, reach Level 60, gather up a bunch of your friends, fight to the center of a Dragon filled zone, beat the Diety in charge, and maybe you'll get a shot at this toy!

No Drop Lore, but really... If you win the Loot on this item, are you EVER gonna give it up?? FOR ANY AMOUNT OF MONEY???

Why not let those of us who actually HAVE a Sleeper's key say these things instead of looking foolish?"

Now Mr anon dumbass you will notice that the poster said;

"He needs the Talismen from 1 of 5 dragons of the first brood in order to open the door. "

Thus meaning you do only need 1 Talismen, maybe you should learn to read and maybe even think before you open YOUR mouth and spit useless crap.

I would kill for my chanter to have this.
Yeah yeah, flame on "but but.. haste"
Blah, whatever. It gives +7 to the stats I use (as it does to any other class) plus has some hps I could use, and a decent ammount of mana.
Don't forget the ac that caster's are lacking...
We aren't supposed to get hit a lot, but chanter's tend to agro quite a bit, and god, it hurts.

RE: Monks...*mumble mumble*
# Jan 30 2001 at 5:02 AM Rating: Decent
Actually the classes that would get the most benefit from this would be paladins and shadow knights. Look at the stats on it that help monks:

8 ac 7 str 7 sta 7 agi 7 dex 40 hp all the resists and the haste. But paladins get all the stuff monks get plus 40 mana and 7 wis.

Same with shadow knights except int instead of wisdom.
RE: Monks...*mumble mumble*
# Jan 30 2001 at 2:54 AM Rating: Decent
I don't see why it would be most benificial to monks. If you ask me hybrids would get more benefit out of it with the +40 mana and +7 int/wis being of no use to monks or other pure melee characters at all.
#Anonymous, Posted: Jan 30 2001 at 7:55 PM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) this item benefits all melee classes. But i would say SK's and Pallys the most due to the int wis cha bonuses.
#Anonymous, Posted: Feb 19 2001 at 11:21 AM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) Um...what about rangers? This item screams rangers to me, and then sk's and pally's.

RE: Monks...*mumble mumble*
# Jan 30 2001 at 3:47 PM Rating: Decent
1st off I would like to clarify that on a drop like this every class would roll unless a caster had something with certain stats better and they didnt need it and therefore pass. As fot the monk thing I understand what they are saying because I have a 53 monk and the reason is not just the haste or just ac or just low wt or just stats. It's all of them because our stats on items suck compared to other classes and 8 ac is huge on a neck for us. And the haste... well monks love haste more then anyone. Not that we need it any more then a rogue or something, but we just love having it more. We are defined by our melee damage ability, therefore haste makes us do our job better. While if a paly or SK had haste they wouldn't their main job any better because their main job is not melee damage. If it was they would have duel wield. Oh and the low wt is just an added bonus.
RE: Monks...*mumble mumble*
# Jan 30 2001 at 4:00 AM Rating: Excellent
I see that as soon as an item comes out that is a nice melee type item (ie str ac and haste etc) that is low weight monks lay claim more than others to it - sure all these MAKE it damn nice for a monk - but pick a single stat on here that any other melee class wouldnt find damn nice about it? *monks - back in line with the rest of the melee*

This item (I think) Was made to fit whoever got it. Plain and simple. Ever Class every Race. So Lets go Farm it! (thats not going to happen I thik but we can dream can't we?
Wow
# Jan 30 2001 at 7:33 AM Rating: Default
Wow what a great item to have. I would definitely agree that this is somewhat wasted on a monk and that a paladin or shadowknight would benefit from this items stats far more, however, any melee class should be in on the lotto.

The thing im wondering is, what is the haste% on this unbelievable item? Are we talkin 20-30%? Or is this one of those unstackable low haste items that you can hardly tell the difference with.

And btw..for the guy who suggests "farming" this item...it's NO DROP...:)

RE: Wow
# Mar 03 2001 at 11:51 AM Rating: Default
Everyone keeps saying it would benefit a Paladin or Shadow Knight far more. What about Rangers? Care to explain how it benefits a Paladin or Shadow Knight more than a Ranger? It was even said this favors damage-dealers more than others, and I agree, and Rangers ARE damage-dealers.

Who benefits from haste more? A dual-wielding Ranger using 2 fast, damaging weapons or a Paladin using a moderate speed, damaging 1-handed weapon or a slow, powerful 2-hander? The answer is clear. This has excellent AC for a neckpiece, and Rangers need all the AC they can get. This has haste, which is far more effectively utilized on a dual-wielding fighter than a fighter using a single 1-handed weapon or a 2-handed weapon. That's a fact. The stats are nice for anyone, with the exception of the wisdom and mana, which are ESSENTIAL to a Ranger's effectiveness in a group (at least one who is good at playing their class). Rangers rely on their mana (in my opinion, and in my personal playing style) far more than Shadow Knights or Paladins do.

However, I still think this item is primarily for all MELEE CLASSES. True, it has caster's stats but casters do NOT get the full range of power from this item. It would be a waste on a caster who could achieve those SAME stats, or close to it, through FAR more common items. Don't be greedy, casters.
RE: Wow
# Apr 20 2001 at 10:12 PM Rating: Default
I agree that this neck is very good for meleers but think about this as a druid who wouldn't love the ac I mean even if it is only 8 that is still really nice and all the resistances and wisdom buffs being as how almost every druid I know is agroed on by that caster the second he/she hits their heal hotkey :(
RE: Wow
# Jan 31 2001 at 4:12 AM Rating: Default
Ok. Think about it? how many people would it take to kill this dragon hmm? I think he ment camp (in shifts perhaps) and get one for everyopne trying to kill it! Or maybe he was just kidding. Farming dosn't always mean camp an Item and then sell it? it simply means camping an item to get for certain people. be it that a person is buying or its for a person in a guild.
