This is a nice Item and I want it...lol. But the problem is...the quest starts in East Cabilis and I can't go there. I also have a Shammy Barb and they would kill me on sight. Is there any other way I can get it? Or do people sell it sometimes? So far, I haven't seen it in the Bazaar. Ty.
Definately true about faction and it sux. Bonechips is a popular faction quest but you will still need enough faction to be able to turn them in. Sarnaks and gobblins in LOiO are good, if ya don't care about FV faction or emerald warriors i think it is, then the explorers in LOiO are also good along with killin those guys collect their explorer knives to turn in for more faction. So now u have decent faction to walk safely into Cabalis, now you must do the penance quest. Completing this will let ya go to the shaman guildleader to get the newb weapon Iksar shammys get, this will get ya on your way to obtaining your cudgel. A couple steps have changed around the 4th or 5th, mabey 6th due to the revamp of Nurga and Droga zones, there is some info in the posts about this if not updated in the walkthru. BTW don't stop with this one, the 8th cudgel kicks ***.
Not sold in the bazaar because it's no drop. You can go to LOIO and raise your faction with Iksar there. Check out that zone for NPC's and quests that will help with faction, but be careful or you may wind up KOS in FV, Kelethin and other non-evil cities. Also note you will need to complete the other SIX quests to receive this item. GL!!!
LoL yes all shaman dots stack. I make a habbit if i want to kill something fast to stack 5 poison dots and 3 disease dots.. talk about burn per second.. looking at about 1000 points of burn or more per second!
ok, here's the deal with dot stacking: like dots will NOT stack. As far as i am aware, there are 4 different types of dot's: poison, disease, magic, and fire. The general rule of thumb is that if it is of the same type from the same class, it will not stack. Now the only exception to this rule would be multiple copies of the SAME dot from different casters of the same class. As far as this cudgel goes, by the time you get it, it will probably be your range item for it's stats. The only time it would be good to drop this in melee and start swinging is if you are trying to finish off a mob and all your dots are dieing. Of course, by the time you are able to get this cudgel, it is very possible that you should be about ready to get your epic, in which case there is no need to either melee OR count on a proc for a dot... it's all in the epic.
Not necessarily, I've landed tainted breath on lvl 30 mobs, and they're not exactly green, 'sides, all shaman dots stack, or what I was told. -shrug- so yes, you can have Envenomed Breath and Tainted Breath on at the same time if you're lvl 29.....

Posted:May 21 2002 at 4:27 AM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) The effect on this Weapon WILL NEVER Land. Its level 9 Poison DOT. If your Level 48 Shaman (Supposed level to get this) and You haven't already DoT'd the Mob Your attacking.... Give up Delete your char and Play a Warrior. Only Time this would come into effect is for those annoying Greenies that always Agro when your Medding, And you don't want to waste mana, or don't have mana to waste on them. Other than that, Stick it in your Range slot and call it good. Oh BTW This is my first ever post.
Thanks for trying to be wise, but all Shaman dots stack. Hence, tainted breath will stack with the DOTs the shaman is casting. Have you ever played a shaman?
I have never noticed a correlation between level of spell and the ability to stick. I've used level 4 spells on level 50+ mobs with no trouble at all. The biggest factors are the resistance of the creature and the level dif between you and it.
