New Skill Caps wrecked usefulness for appropriate levels
# Mar 29 2007 at 2:06 PM Rating: Decent
Afer 2 weeks camping this charm for the decent AC only to find it is useless at level 60, I'm a little disappointed.

As a level 60 Paladin I have all available weapon skills maxed. 1hs, 1hb, 2hs, 2hb, Archery and Piercing. The current skill cap at level 60 is 260 for weapons and 230 for archery. My charm is only showing 10% effect though.

With the changes made to skill maximums since this charm came out, this charm has lost a lot of its allure for anyone not able to reach the skill maximum (as opposed to the cap for your level).

I don't even know what the actual maximum skill level is these days, but if you have to be level 65 or higher to get full stats from this charm then it's not worth as much as it used to.

I would rather SOE change the working of this charm to gain power as your weapon skills increase. All usable classes can use the same weapon types, except perhaps Throwing, so they could base charm effect on combined skill number just like the charms that are based on your AGI+DEX and other stat based charms.
Why is nothing showing for me?
# Aug 02 2004 at 2:01 PM Rating: Default
I just got one of these for my bard mainly because he has no haste item yet and he doesn't have too many melee skills that he would need to train.

Anyway, I have 1hs at 215 (max is 250), 1hb at 221(max is 250), pierce at 202 (max is 250), h2h at 100 (max is 100), and been working on throwing up to 82 (max is 113).

However, I am not receiving any stats from this yet. Anyone have any idea why? Do you need to max everything to get anything?

You need to start MAXing some of the WEAPON skills to see partial stats, MAX them all to get full effect.

AHHHH....thank you very much.
That does make sense now. I will keep on keeping on to work my way there. :)

EDIT: Just an update. I finally made it to max weapon skills to get the charm's full effect and I love it.

The only problem I had with this thing is that for a bard, it is impossible to max my 1hs, 1hb and piercing skills until you are level 60. Even though I maxed my skills out at each level from about 57+, the full effects of the charm did not appear until I dinged level 60 and maxed my skills for that level (250).

So, just an FYI.....If you are a class that has a melee skill that goes up to 250, you won't get the full charm effect until level 60.

I am not sure what happens later now that weapon skills have been raised for some classes.

I look at the sweet advantages of a charmed item with haste, because it allows for the full usage of uber gear in any slot and now worry about the "haste" facter being part of your gear. But I
currently use Eye Patch of Plunder + Paladin self only haste and SCHW with a max on 2hp. And the dps is insane with a Two Tined Corpse Pitchfork, its supasick.


Thats just my own 2cents. :-P

some people have all the luck. we aren't one of them :)

2nd floor, loc: 871, 102, -605

mystics, rogues, blademasters, 1hst class, 2nd class, trolls, PHer for the armsmaster. we've done 7 days off and on (60 druid, 65 bard, 63 warrior) here, gotten 3 sashes, at least 12 necklaces, 3 compass, over 9k in pp/weapons/gems, a level and a few aa's, no figurines yet.

nice for a casual camp though, we can kill just PHer or clear armsmaster room + torture room (trying for interrogator). 29 give or take minutes on spawns, priests/inquisitors suck with their 4 second cheals.

one day we'll get the charm then on to the next evil camp!

I believe the PH spawns 2nd righthand side when you enter the room? behind an stump with an axe imbeded?

do you fight the PH at the spawn point or pull him out? I had a 65 bard lull everything and pull to the stairs at Zi but everything agroed. don't you get adds at spawnpoint?

drops off the broken skull armsmaster.

He spawns below decks.

If throwing is required for tanks, I guess I'm never gonna see maxed stats on it...(sigh)

Wow noone answered the important question. How hard and how big a group and where?
I have no haste when I do my hot turnins and am very interested in this. As a warrior, all my ( and I mean all, except acrhery which seems impossible) are maxed. I could really use help on this,since I play on Sullon and camps are treatorous at best. So many newts and evils wanting nothing more than to kill us. So an easy in and out would help. Please be more specific.
Thank you all for any useful info.

I feel your pain bro. I have hunted a lot, not a super lot, but a lot in HF and have yet to find anyone on Quellious with this. There are weaponsmasters aplenty but no armsmaster. I would dearly LOVE to get just a top deck or lower deck confirmation. Like you i would love to exchange my Scaled Knight's Gaunts for the SCHW i am now using.

Those who have posted as having this item, its not like there will be rush of people lined up at zone in if you tell us where it dropped. Come on tell us. We can keep a secret. (wink wink nudge nudge)
humbling piece
# May 27 2003 at 7:14 PM Rating: Default
I must say that this is a most humbling piece.

I think it would be worth the go.

Im 63 atm and Im going to take a look at it and see what happens.

My hand to hand also is a big YUCK and so is my piercing.

I can not remeber, but, does our stats go up on low blues or do we have to hand to hand dark blue.

Being 63 let alone 65 finding a mob to not destroy you doing hand to hand let alone piercing is going to be a quest within itself.

I have 1hb, 2hb, 1hs, 2hs, and bash all maxed.
Piercing i believe is 12 and Hand to hand i think is 10.

But it maybe fun, maybe i should go run into HOH with some guid buddies and hit hand to hand on a mob while they kill it out of group.

(( remeber to disactivate pious might ))
That almost got ugly lol.

I think that maybe our solution to raising our off skills of melee that we do not use?

My suggestion is to find a group killing blues to your level and see if they will let you practive your skills on the mob.

I will try this this week and see how it fairs.

I wonder, does the haste on the item stack with other haste items you are wearing?

This is something I would like to know.

Or does it stack with haste spells? LIke our self haste valor of Marr? Or shamans or chanters?

Says weapon skills and I am not sure H2H really counts as there weren't any H2H weapons for a long time. guess the best way to figure it out would be toget one and see it it'll give those stats without H2H and throwing as someone below was pondering.

you want to know how a charm sucks....heres how
go get the shimmering emerald crystal charm with a hybrid then equip it.now you got a charm that it says you can use oh wait there is 1 problem....you cant spec. in a magic class much less raise it to max. thats how they suck read the fine print on most of the charms you will find the flaw in them that breaks it off in you to slowly bleed you out.

I have this charm with all skills maxed i believe (225 all weapons, 100 H2h, archery 75, bash 200) and I am only getting AC 8, 5 dex, 4 sta, 3 wiz, 3 int 17 HP any pallies getting the full AC10 out there? If so, what am i missing?

Most likely, the wording here is the issue. I'm guessing that it should say, "Increases in power as the weapon skills of your class approach 255", since warriors have higher melee skill caps than Pallys.

Can someone please confirm where and who for the drop of this charm? Maybe even the details of getting the mob to spawn? Lots of esoteric comments but no real facts that I can see regarding droppage. The info on skills and stat levels is useful. If I could just find out where to camp to get it.

h2h appears to count. SK friend of mine got this Friday night. He has all "weapon skills" maxed, but h2h is of course around 5. Stats on this item for him were something like "3 HP"

LOL

oh, just looked at the post below. I'm not sure what his archery skill is. that could be it.

anyway, does anyone know if you still get the full 27% haste when you don't meet the requirements for full stats?

Haste and minimum Level

My lvl 30 paladin has this *g* and it has 1ac, 2hp, and Haste. All her weapon skills are maxed (!) except for 2HS which is 46 below max. So it might be possible for this charm to "work" at lvl 29 but it would be close. Before she trained the 75 points of archery, it had zero stats.

Now I tested the haste and it was NOT NOTICABLE. I used a RBG for comparison, which worked fine.

That leaves 2 options:

Either the haste of this item is trivial to begin with, or....

it scales with the weapon skills and is thus around 3 % haste in the paladin's case - and too small to be measured with any accuracy. I have no confirmation of the 27 % haste given above but it sounds like a nice number given the difficulty in obtaining the item. Who knows...

Conclusion:

This is not the twink haste item you are looking for. Move along.

Pan
RE: Haste and minimum Level
# Apr 09 2003 at 12:18 PM Rating: Default
either that or the stats are not at full because you can't get all your weapon skills to max at lvl 30(they are capped)but I do agree its not a twink item:)

# Apr 01 2003 at 11:39 AM Rating: Good
I have yet to understand how any charm sucks when they all go in a new slot and anything on it will be in addition to your normal gear. It's like a buff that stacks with everything. Well, except when it's a haste item like this, but hey, 27% is better than my Silvery Belt of Contention, and it frees up my belt slot for something nicer. I want one of these!

As many people, you complain... as many people, you'd probably would like to be uber at level 1... in other games, people use cheat codes to access immediately to items they should get in more appropriate times... and they pervert all spirit of the game...

have you lost eq spirit of sight? a cooperation game where people enjoy to group with people who progress at fair pace with them. I think fun is in challenge, not in easy going... if all new items make this game becoming too easy, most of players would leave because they'd loose interest.

do you only have an haste item equiped? and if yes, have you looted it by yourself or is it twinky games loot? which is a kind of cheat to my eyes... I have alts that my main help to equip... but I would never complain about an item's stats. If an item is not good, there are others to look for... So why to always complain? I think it is always a matter of attitude and maturity. (excuse my english, french is my native language)

This is the first charm that I've seen that makes me drool. Very nice... decent stats as well as haste for a charm slot item. I'm a bard and would most likely pass this up to a warrior or other hybrid melee class as they would get far more use out of it.

It's the same as this charm but the classes are the "DPS classes".

Ranger, Beastlord, Rogue, Monk (I think I'm missing one there).

Not sure if the stats are different, but it's the same condition of increased stats. It also has the haste.
