because it's given from the Visiting Priestess in Najena: a dark elf on Neriak faction.
Waaay back in the day, back when Everquest was, well, fun, they used to do things like this. Some evil dark elf character wouldn't give out equipment that was usable by good characters, and vice versa, because there used to be these things called "factions" where certain race/classes didn't like each other.
In contrast, now if my 65 troll beastlord who worships Innoruuk wants to get his top teir of LDON armor, I have to go to South Ro, talk to one of those wretched little frogs who overtook my hometown, and then help them defend MY town from a bunch of my fellow Innoruuk worshipping undead and whatnots. Where's my option to team with the Witnesses of Hate and kill those damnable little frogs who are in my home, lounging around in my house and sleeping in my bed?
Every expansion from Luclin on has furthered there efforts to eliminate any form of faction and just mixmash all race/class/religions into one huge peaceful episode of the muppets. But that's an entirely differant topic.
In answer to your question, no Rangers or Paladins because, even if you manage to illusion yourself up and mind control her enough to give you the hammer, her people don't sit in thier forges making weapons for the goodie-two-shoes classes.
