now i agree this is a nice weapon dmg / delay, and the +15 / +15 is sweet, but i wish it was necro usuable aswell!!!! i mean necros usuwally don't get nice weapons that will add this much INT, all these classes have expel undead, as do necromancers but they don't have it!
Necros agaisnt undead can "tank" just fine, with our 70% undead slow, and the BoD line going swinging with a weapon that procs this would be nice, and just toping off with lifetap as needed.
I'm just going to assume that if you think necro's can tank undead fine, you are definitely not a high enough level to be worrying about gear like this in the first place. By 60 any mob that cons light blue or better will eat your lunch, steal your girlfriend and defile your mom.
As a paladin, I would love this item. would be perfect for going into guk and having some fun.. ( nough said ) Does anyone know how hard it is to obtain one?

This is a cool weapon, I looted one while being on the forward clearing party for a royals raid. Against some mobs this thing does a considerable amount of damage. This weapon + a mage focus bracer can amount to about 330odd hp per proc. I like to use it against the Rhags in the Ssra temple, it tears them up!
Only downside is the frequency of the proc. Even with maxed dex it doesn't seem to proc as often as I would like it to. It's randomness is kind of strange too. It might proc 5 times in a row in one fight with 255 dex, then th enext fight buffed the same, will not proc at all.
From the Graveyard Area, one of the most fun places I've fought in EQ. Quick spawns, multiple nameds,decent xp and good hardcore fun. Seemes like a very rare drop, anyone gotten one lately?
I want this soo bad ;)

Dawnfire, Morning star of light is a wicked common drop in plane of fear(off golems that i seen). Cleric only though Banish undead 11/34. Not no drop, not even lore. Procs or tries to proc on live stuff ALOT even with 87 dex. Is alot of fun, advise all clerics to get one. THis wouldn't be bad either, just proc isn;t as much damage.(cleric melee sucks, but lower delay is nice)

1.I only got my 1hb skill up, because I got a Guardians Mace from HS.. hehe like 14/24. I got my skill up to 100 just from that camp and a few practice points.. This is ubah better than SoM, which is 16/27 and proc Tashan's Clash.. Like a 5sec stun.. I had one of them, and wasn't very impressed with it.. Didn't proc that ofted <Dex at 150>, So I traded that for a Crafted Velium Claymore/Dw Boots/Mith Greaves/Mith Bp I think I got the better end of the deal there.. NE who.. If in a group, who would this weapon bennefit more? Cleric or Pally/SK? I mean the Wis/Int is nice for both class's. But, who would use this to it's full potential the most? I could see a brawl breakin out in a group with this 1..
Id say pally sk, they can benefit from all the stats while the cleric wouldnt need the great melee stats, and clerics can get equal or better primary hand items at this lvl, whereas this is hard to beat. Sure beats the noct i have at 52 and many others have far past it... In some situations, id use this over epic, cause it would allow use of a shield and even in seb, i still tank alot and the shield and increased speed is nice. Not saying its bad for clerics, just my opinion that they wouldnt benefit from it nearly as much as sk/pally...
Very nice weapon. It's nice to see that the new Chardok is putting some new droppable high end stuff back in the economy. We got a jagged sword of mourning yesterday off something that was green to me at lvl 60. it's 13/25 10dex 10svm and droppable. It's been in the game for a long time, but i believe it was an uber rare off Korokust before. Not sure where it used to drop, but it's a very good item nonetheless. I rolled a 0/300 on it =). was a guild group so i was happy to see the other melee in the group win it. Anyway this thing screams paladin/sk and would be beautiful for a crypt group in seb, or a HS group. ideal big manaless taunt if they were main tank...which they actually happen to do very well. Personally i like healing a sk with epic more than i do a warrior for exp grouping. (secondary 55 cleric) anyway i'll stfu now. =)
Wow... if this weapon was druid-usable then I'd be going crazy to get my hands on one. But... I guess the Expel Undead effect just doesn't fit in with the druid class. Oh well.
I certainly hope this item is dropping deep in. Stats and a 16/22 ratio make this fella very impressive, the proc is just gravy for hunting in OS and HS.
This is a pretty nice item. The proc is a 273DD for undead and proced lot for me. Dmg Dly is hella nice IMHO. Dropped around the library area if anyone wants to know.

Paladin and cleric are understandable, they already get anti-undead spells; but where in all the world would a shaman come into the picture? This is not D&D, wisdom as a primary stat doesnt mean you should get slated on stuff like this.
The better question would be that if clerics and their paladin hybrid can use this wouldnt it follow that because shadow knights are alsted their parent class get put on the list. Necromancers get the undead only line of dd spells as well and they got left off this sweet sthyck.
Lastly, 15 int & wis WOULD be helpful to a warrior to skill up faster with combat skills that way we have an easier time hitting the mobs that would otherwise wipe the floor with you chain casting monkeys...

Nice upgrade from a MoSS for shadowknights. Might help to move the price of the EBON Mace and MoSS down. Anybody know what drops it? My guild is going there soon and need to know how many of the other SK's I need to kill before we go so I can get this..hehe.

Well, assuming that ppl who get this will either be selling their MoSS if they have one or will no longer be in the market to buy one if they don't; the price of the MoSS will drop from more supply and less demand.
Not quite GB on steroids. Would be much better for a pally if it was 1hs intstead of 1hb, how many of us pally's actually use 1hb as our primary weapon? Great for a cleric hunting the undead though.
At higher levels, many pallies do have their blunt skill capped or near to it, in case they manage to get a stave of shielding or darkmetal water sprinkler. This just adds another high level replacement for blunt wielding pallies, damm good one too.
I have mine maxed, and i tell you what, i would love to get ahold of one of these.. coupled with a SBS or SotGD, this would make a nasty combo.. and the AC bouns for shields makes life so much eiser. Plus, you get to have a mace, a fresh look for pallies, since you do not see many with a shield out, much less with a mace and shiled... i wonder how often you would get confused for a cleric??
