Sadly, they have nerfed Khalshazar with the release of Omens of War. Backstab mod is now 12% which makes a rather large difference now.

not exactly nerfed. There were daggers out that had 12% mod, and 15% mod, and yet both were the same because the hard cap on backstab skill was 252. Since the raise of lvl cap to lvl 70, all daggers with a "15% mod" have since been changed to 12% to reflect that.

Well. My guild is 0-12 now on Khalshazars. We've seen every other piece of loot he has except the Wistful Tunic. I've yet to miss a Cursed raid. /sigh

supposed to be really rare; been told that you can be on upwards of 20 cursed kills and not see. It looked to be turning out that way with my guild being 0/6. Then 11-5-03 he dropped Khalshazar; That night, server reset, and we spawned Cursed again on 11-6-03, killed him and Khalshazar dropped AGAIN. I'd call that some pretty good luck.

The Attack isnt very good, and if you want to see good attack check out the uberest guild on my server (possibly most servers)- Afterlife. Yes, some of the rogues there have "a rogue's dream". The point, thats very nice gear but u can do better hehe...

ironic most of the rogues of the top guilds wield this in their mainhand. If you had a clue what you're talking about, you'd see that this (before PoP release) is the best weapon available *because* of the 15% backstab mod on top of the excellent damage delay ratio. Before PoP, most rogues would wield khalshazar and bloodbath in offhand.

yah cuz they drop every time . and sometimes 5 of each per kill .. and there is only one guild per server that can kill them. wheeeee

You haven't been to Mith Marr have ya. There are 3 guilds capable of taking him out now. And 2 (maybe more) that are capable of doing him in a month or already able to.

RE: 3K++ DMG
# Aug 31 2002 at 7:36 PM Rating: Default
According to threads I've read on the Safehouse website, which is probably the most respected rogue info site out there, they list the max possible backstab with crit+disc with a 16 dmg piercer with the % backstab modifier to be around 2000 to maybe 2200 damage. It's impossible to score even 2500 on a backstab, much less up near 3k. The games mathematical variables are just not high enough to allow for a backstab even 1000 less than what this obvious liar is claiming to have scored.

i have gotten 2096 crit backstabs with disc several times. i do not know what top is for 16 damage weapon, but for 15 damage it is 2096 aa's all going to damage. i use massive heartwood thorn with 10 percent bs mod.

its quite easy to crit bs for over 3k with a 16 dmg wep, ppl have gotten 2985 or around there crit with 15 dmg wep with 255 str and stuff, so i would think that a 3k bs with RB is sorta hard to do. Btw all of these are done with the disc.

# Feb 02 2003 at 8:47 PM Rating: Decent
no they haven´t . or they lied too you.
or they meant with the double backstab as in 2000ish x 2 for a total of around 4000ish dmg.

Are you so petty? I wouldn't believe your post if you had screenshots to support it, no one of the stature of a #1 rogue on a server would speak like that, when you get that high and sell your soul for a few pieces of loot, you lose anything that makes you feel superior to others, because secretly you wish you weren't spending 8 hellishly boring hours in NToV just so you wouldn't be put on loot probation for a month. Yes, I've been there... just shut up before you look even more like an idiot... blah what a lozer

I would think that the +15% to backstab skill alone would increase backstab damage quite substantially... and with a proc that lowers you on the hate list... as if the cake wasn't tasty enough, they iced it with fast delay, lots of stats, and some ac... yep, just one word:

Wow.

That's some damn good cake.
RE: Wow... funny how so many posts here have the same subjec
# Jul 14 2002 at 3:06 PM Rating: Default
Not being a rogue, I can only assume that the 15% wouldn't mean much as most skills can be maxed before 51 (maybe I'm wrong and rogues max out their backstab to 250 after level 51? so, another 5% to get to the hard cap?). The big deal seems to be a peircer with damage 16. So many of the best rogue peiercers have 15 that I was starting to belive that there would never be a 16. Well, guess I'm wrong twice. :)
Gives everyone something more to look foward to.

Maybe the website is wrong, I don't think it's very likely though

225*1.15=258.75
max is 252

I would have to say the bonus backstab is very nice.

I wonder if items like this wil be NO DROP on Firiona Vie. Most items other than Epic items aren't NO DROP like they are on other servers. Too bad none of our guilds are anywhere near raiding this place yet, oh well. /shrug

Looks as if there are a lot of class specific drops here better than Epics overall, good stuff.
RE: I wonder...
# Jul 15 2002 at 3:28 PM Rating: Default
On Xev the SSra temple gets raided all the time, and I imagine it is the same in other servers, even the Pvp ones.

The reason I say this is just so you don't go thinking that you will never see this zone, because if you gain dem levels and get dem fancy equipments, I'm sure you'll see this place within a few months if you play your cards right. Good luck.

You can put RB in offhand.....
So this badass in mainhand, and your 15/18(with haste, I think that's what it is) epic in offhand....you rule.

Imagine this:
PRIMARY:
Khalshazar -- 16/20
OFFHAND:
Bloodbath -- 16/22
GAUNLETS:
Gauntlets of Dragon Slaying -- 40% Haste and nice stats.

Of course, having both would be unbelievably tough.

incorrect, playing a lvl 50 rog compared to playing a lvl 60 or 65 rog is very very different. unless you´re still playing with the same tank who has the same gear. because u see, when you as a rogue lvl up and get better gear and weapons that get you more aggro, so do the warriors :D they get aggro proc weapons, proc buff clicks, taunt works better at higher lvls.

# Jul 12 2002 at 5:18 PM Rating: Decent
I've seen 2 of these drop so far, and no bloodbaths.. but.. i think it's better anyways, 2 faster delay, a far superior proc and more hp anyways, plus it has a little ac where the bloodbath doesn't.
RE: better than bloodbath imo
# Jul 12 2002 at 8:33 PM Rating: Good
The stats posted for Bloodbath are wrong.

Notably: Bloodbath is 16/21 and the effect is (worn), not a proc. I believe the effect is +25 ATK and +2hp/tick regen. AC doesn't matter as much for a rogue, Khalshazar has 25 more HP though. The two effects are arguable as to which is better. +12% Backstab is the max benefit, +15% isn't any better.
