Bleh, this item would be great for my ranger. Imagine duel welding a wurmslayer as well.. So I started looking for this undead sprites, and after an hr and after getting slaughtered by some lvl 60 unicorn someone tells me undead sprites no longer exist in lfay and presumably neither does the item. Hehe guess I will stick to my shaman until there exists a v nice item for a ranger

Thats probably exactly the reason they were taken out. Imagine being a ranger and casting grasping roots as your lead in to the attack. Mob is now immobilized. Go in to melee and the fear procs. Now the mob is immobile and has it's back to you. With dual wield/double attack, DoTs and nukes, you can kill anything that is not resistant to fear with no damage to yourself. The implications of a mob turning it's back to a rogue are equally staggering, although if the rogue doesn't have another weapon that procs a root, they will end up having to chase it. This item definitely unbalances things in the hands of certain classes, although why they don't just exclude those classes from wielding it instead of nerfing it altogether, is something we will probably never know.

you do know that rangers get fear against animals, right?

its how many rangers solo their levels.

also you use snare not root as pointed out by the other post

Actually, anything that is rooted will attack the closest person, regardless of fear.
trust me, I tried

This was changed from primary slot only to secondary slot only. You can't use it anymore because shamans cannot dual wield.

Hey, I was just thinking, and I dunno if it was alredy mentioned, I'm too lazy to read the other posts, but wouldn't this be great on a rogue duel weilding it with a Serrated Bone Dirk which procs engulfing darkness, a DoT/Snare? I mean, snare and fear or Instill Doubt if it actually works.. then just run after it BSing? I dunno, I'm only level 17 newbie, so I may not know what I am talking about, but this could work, couldn't it?

Wow, that is a good combo...rogues....soloing?
Alright I cannot think so widely, nbut I think it could happen with that combo....although, the Jagged Shard Of Bone has a pretty bad dmg/dly though. If it had better dly, then you could probably do that.
Being rogues die in seconds, they probably could not take the hits of the light blue/blue monster they were fighting.
The Bone Shard has a pretty high dly, and has to proc in the second hand. Need pretty good dex for this.
Soloing like that would probably result having the amount of creatures you have killed in the end, equal to how many times you died in the process, and, it's good to keep a reputation for not soloing.

Not on Druzzil Ro...
# Aug 28 2001 at 12:53 AM Rating: Decent
Well, my ranger, my shaman, and my druid have one of these. =) Only useable by my ranger. It's GREAT for soloing... it usually procs once or twice a fight, then I switch back to something better. I think a fear-proccing dagger for all classes would have been a liiiiittle too uber for a mere drop.

Druzzil Ro no longer drops these.

And may I say this: Dude. I dunno what you were smoking, but I used this the day I got it, when Lfay was still undead.. and, hon, it did not proc any 150DD + fear. The things that DROP it harmtouched for 180+ a shot and were very green at L 24. (though they did drop randomly off of all the undead sprites.) It procs a simple L 4 necro's fear.. and it is very nice, especially for a weapon I just picked up in my travels. =)

Just my 2cp.

This item is not available anymore. It was changed to Secondary slot only, so only dual weilding classes who already own one can equip it.
Fear Dagger
# Aug 09 2001 at 9:42 AM Rating: Default
well i was with my buddy hakenlo on bertox it took be about 3 hours to find one of these i was lvl 18 i guess it proc maybe at 5 or 10 but they changed this to when my friend got the dagger it proced fear with a 150dmg dd and it killed a orc cent in a hit(lvl 35 at the time) so my guess it may proc dmg i dont know and it dose suck they put this in secondary but the delay ratio was bad but i do injoy this proc at arena when stupid kos people come in... in West freeport bt the other day i was workking on my tomberine quest or whatever and i went to go forage in Ej and this damn dagger went off at the wrong time and brought back like 20 lvl 50 leechs and gorillas from all over but i do like that the dagger is good in the arena :)

NERFED!!!
# Jul 12 2001 at 6:04 AM Rating: Good
i, for one, used this a lot. it has saved my group lots of HP, and saved my **** a couple times. On the patch on July 10th, i think, they made it off hand only. No more free fear for casters=(

RE: NERFED!!!
# Jul 14 2001 at 9:49 AM Rating: Decent
That saddens me a great deal that this was nerfed (and I am sure many of you feal the same way) I was thinking my shaman could now solo like a druid can, so much for class balancing.

my question is if you had one before can you still have it in your primary slot or did they force the change with out an item turn-in.

On Drinal, the undead sprites no longer spawn so the item is not dropped anymore. (As of July 14, Do they have different versions of the game on different servers, I know that befallen was different on MithMarr and on Drinal, one had dark elves in befallen two weeks before the other.)

FEAR
# Jul 08 2001 at 11:37 PM Rating: Decent
I got this weapon last night...LVL 5 my but.. I am a 35 ranger and was slashing for 25's with a STR of 135 and I get HT for 120-175 hp..I dont see how a level 5 could get this. Any way this is a great weapon. My dex is a 125 and I proc..like at least once every fight..snare and my ebony blade make it a dream to solo..even though the ratio is slow.

I've been hunting frightling skulls at lvl 12 (I'm suicidal. Deal with it.) and I can't STOP getting these. I've only killed like 5 regular undead sprites and 3 of em had these. I actually had to leave em behind because they were lore. Maybe I'm just lucky *shrug*

Now if only those bleeding frightling skulls spawned like this...

Faelawen - Povar - Fnord.
Proc lasts 24 secs
# Jun 20 2001 at 9:18 AM Rating: Default
Was over in L Fay tonight hunting for frightling's to try and get a skull (and an earring of course) and got one of these early. Snazzy for lower levels, and I can see a use for a lot of classes, but some just wouldnt need it, or it wouldnt be viable.

BUT... Imagine a rogue using this, and switching to a superior weapon once it proc'd... Free back stabs :) I timed it tonight in EC and the proc lasts 4 pulses (24 secs) so that would give the rogue 2 or 3 backstabs. Nice for a low lev rogue.

Oh, I was hitting for 25's max that I noticed with it. Is a novelty item for me, being a bard but an entertaining one. Allready have a 55 ranger in the area wanting one :)

It proc'd for a 23 druid (regularly btw), so a proc lev of 15 doesnt sound too low. It dropped for me off an undead sprite horror, so it seems that it can be any undead sprite that drops it.

For those that want one, good luck. And take into account what it will be replacing. It IS primary only.
RE: Proc lasts 24 secs
# Jun 29 2001 at 12:41 PM Rating: Decent
heheh, so Ironic that I spend all this time to get my rogue's instill doubt up, and they hand out a dagger that makes the skill obsolete. Switching between two weapons is nothing compaired to trying to time a backstab button with a skill that takes 5 seconds to not work. I'm only my way to Lfay, alright!

This tooth as i call it rocks big time...was in Western Wastes the other day killing named dragons with my guild, and we pulled some wyvenrs cus they were in the way...i went over and snared it, then startet piercing...after 4-5 tries it went off, fearing the lvl 52 wyvern away with 10 tanks and a whole buttload of casters laughing their *** off :), proc lasted all of 10 sec but by then he was running for his life anyway.
Yes LvL 5, Yes Undead Sprite

This item dropped for me after a few hours of chasing undead.

68 kills later, 58 of which were the newbie Undead Sprites, the shard dropped, on an undead sprite.

These are LvL 5 - 6 mobs, and so yes a LvL 5 can acquire the item. I have found that LF definitely has patterns in the spawns of the different undead types. One area spawns Horrors almost exclusively, another spawns mostly guardians. In the S-SE area of the zone near the shadowmen and along the south wall of LF, I found nothing but sprites, and this is where the shard ultimately dropped.

Put an SBD in one hand, and the Shard in the other, or switch off between the two in Primary & you have the recipe for a rogue's wet dream come true!
when it procs
# Jun 15 2001 at 6:30 AM Rating: Default
Mine started procing right when I got it at level 15.

This is a great rogue weapon. =)
nice general item
# Jun 14 2001 at 5:41 AM Rating: Default
The weapon PROCS the effect, it works fairly decent proccing about as much as a PGT goes off, Druids can also use this weapon too.
So....
# Jun 13 2001 at 6:16 PM Rating: Default
So when does it start to proc? Won't proc for my level 8 rogue or lvl 14 shaman...I'm guessing 17? 25 maybe? Anyone? Anyone?

Mob who drops this
# Jun 12 2001 at 5:55 AM Rating: Default
is usually the Undead Sprite Guard or Horror, and you couldn't kill one of these with 100 lvl 5 players. They harmtouch for 171 and took about 2-3 rounds of combat for my 51 earth pet to wipe.
#Anonymous, Posted: Jun 11 2001 at 5:08 PM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) Alright! I can finally get my monks Piercing skill up. I'm glad to see Verant has finally decided to blur the lines further between classes, maybe they'll give monks a back stab ability next, and I'm sure the warriors would love to get feign death. In fact, I think it's high time that Enchanters were able to track, their time is long overdue! And while we're at it, let's give bards the ability to harm touch, heck they have the illusions and mez ability that chanters have why not? Shadow Knights shoudl be able to SoW, Pallys should be able to summon a Were Wolf pet and last but not least, Gnomes should be able to tinker.
#Anonymous, Posted: Jun 13 2001 at 7:31 AM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) Monks do not have the piercing skill at all. Yes monks can use this dagger but their skill will never be higher than zero. I have this dagger and use it with my monk just for the looks. I have not been able to gain one single skill point because monks do not have piercing skill. know your facts before you post garbage like this.

being a ranger who likes to solo, this is a great addition, got one last night, has proc'ed every fight so far, love it!

I got it off an undead sprite last night (out of 200 kills maybe).
It seems to be a very rare drop, but it's really worth it.
not bad for lvl
# Jun 04 2001 at 3:58 PM Rating: Default
If you can really get this at lvl 5 and fear is unlimited its not that bad
