I was just reading and found it kinda funny how all these post from a year or 2 ago are saying how this has mana and also how great of an earring it is. Well for a long while now this has not had any mana and it is also not worth too much anymore now that there are player made earrings like Bloodmetal Earring of Engagement which owns this one unless you really need the dex/agi instead of str/sta/hp/mr. Hopefully someday some EQ player from the future will come by this post and say how bloodmetal earring sucks and how there is some crazy earring with like 50 to all stats and 500 hp and this earring will be like an orc fang. I dunno wtf I was going with this...

Well, nearly three years have gone by and the Bloodmetal Earring of Engagement is pretty basic now... It can often be had for 4-5k. The average good Bazaar purchased earring has 115-145HP with many stats and saves, some with ATK, Mana Regen, HP regen or both. Lets see what another three years brings!
So, 7 years later and you can get earrings with 1000hp+ on them... depressing where this game has gone. Everquest before GoD was a great game. Oh well... time marches on.
Well, if anyone else still likes looking through old stuff and the comments throughout EQ's history...
It's now well into 2019 and the progression has continued. You could now potentially get a raid earring like Transverse Yaw Stabilizer https://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/item.html?item=135276 and augment it with a fully upgraded Artisan's Prize, see https://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/item.html?item=125811
That's over 11k HP. From an earring. Granted I barely play anymore and just log into Test once in a while to feed the nostalgia but still it's crazy to see how massively things have changed.
We'll see what the next 3-4 years brings...

Just curious why this item has a mana boost. If the pic is correct only Warriors Rogues and monks can use it and none of those classes get spells...so WTF?
the stats and picture are old.

There is no mana on the Spiderfang Earring that I have... and it is not NO DROP. I don't know if they changed it or what.
WHat is it worth? 10 k 40 k, I have no idea, pls tell me

This item is not No Drop. I purchased it on the Tunare Server for 25K and would gladly buy another rather than spend some ridiculously stupid amount of jack on a mosquito Leg Earring.

They took an existing item, made it an earing. maybe changed some of the stats a little. forgot to remove the mana. Doubtful many items are coded from scratch. most people use a template of some sort with minor changes.

The mana component on this item has now been removed.
i'm so happy to finally see some frickin mana on an item like this, my rogue is getting awfully tired of always being OOM, i can never heal myself or nothin, but VI answered my petitions to give me some damn mana, hahahahha no longer will the rogue be OOM, now i can finally say "GtG on mana, pull away brother"
THANK YOU VERANT

Its probably not a mistake but one of the many cruel jokes that Verant likes to make. See many of mage/wizard/enchanter type staves that have godly dam/dly on a class that would never dream of striking something other than an orc pawn for fun past level 5.
?? Wizards melee all the time in between casts..so do a lot of classes..since on high end raids they have to be in melee range anyway..they like to take a few whacks here and there.

WhiteHalo has a point.
Yes, with some mobs, you have to get into melee-range to land a spell on them.
Yes, some mobs get EXTREMELY irritated if you are in their melee range and you try to sit and regain mana ("What?? Am I BORING you, Punk?? Eat this Flurry! WHA-BAAM!"). You're not always gonna have a safe distance to sit and med up.
So, yes, it's quite all right for that wizard / mage / necro to take a swing at the ugly mobs in their faces ... sometimes. It's not monk or rogue level combat damage, but every little bit helps.

Hmm, all the monk Items also usually have the BL tag? Did they forget this time?

Just on first observation, Warrior Monk and Rogue are the 3 Pure Melee Classes. They get no spells. Just something I noticed, so no hybrids on this item, just pure melee. just a thought though, probably not a mistake.

Then why is there mana on this item?

They've removed the mana from this item.
I want my paladin to be able to wear this. I thought to myself.. damn all these "fang" earings and "spider armor".. they need spiderfang earings..(I love spiders) but NO.. only melee's =(
I would love the extra mana for my monk though.

Yeah, that is a little ***** that they have mana on a pure melee only item. But, it just goes to prove my long standing theory that German's love David Hasselhoff!!

Posted: Mar 14 2002 at 10:31 AM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) There's Many items out there for classes with stats they can't even use. Crafted Helm for instance has 5int 5cha. Just goes to show that a good int/mana item for instance should automaticall go to int casters.
CHA and INT aren't completely useless for melees, as it helps for selling loot and increasing skills (respectively).
Unlike mana on a non-mana-class item, which is completely pointless.
As pointed out before, this was a "minor oversight".

I suppose this is in reference to the +30 Mana on a MELEE CLASSES ONLY earring, eh? LoL~ A+

I guess the mana is on there for when those classes are procing items, right? ;)
either they added the mana as a goof over look or they didnt put all the classes on it that they meant to . im sure it will be fixed in a later patch

Was just thinking how awesome it would be on my paly, then noticed hybrids cant wear.
Oh well, could have used the dex for with my dex gear and not loose mana in the process.

Posted: Mar 13 2002 at 6:40 PM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) that mana is the first thing I noticed to, but I don't think there are to many, if any at all, magic required procing items. Even if there were you gotta remember that pure melees don't regain mana and they stay at 0. Maybe they forgot to put the hybrids up, this would be great for any of them. I would love to have this on my ranger
