I did 2 ldons last night on normal. Of the 3 nameds we encountered in total, this dropped twice. So YES it does drop in normal difficulty (and I'm sure it was set to normal cos I got the quests), but as for the frequecy we may have just been very lucky.
For the record both ldons were collect ones, not sure if that helps at all.
Dude yall they must be joking when they say common drop---i have been doing hard north ro ldons for quite some time and just got the drop today!! Its not a common drop so u either work your butt of to get it to drop or just save up for one!! I would preferr working for it cuz its not worth buying it for so much in the bazaar.

ok .. ima go ahead and say it ... 56 monk here ... not only do i find myself in MT posistions in 3 out of every 5 ldons i run ... we get done in 30 minutes ... i lull i pull i tank and being the main tank helps clerics out because half the time i'll have mend up, although i will admit not all monks can MT on hard ldons .. but imo monks should pull ldons .. hands down
My main is a 65 monk, I ALWAYS pull ldons im in, hard or not, because simply put, I can single the fastest. Nro is a little spicey because of doors and trap placement, but if you bring a fiendly fellow melee person with you to hold open the door, you should have no prob, even with most traps. Monks own, and will continue to own pulling in the majority of situations. It it their function now, as it has been for many o years. Let's face it folks, monks fall shy of other dps classes when dps is considered. If thats all they're used for, they will only be picked up in a group if there is no other alternative. I always get groups, especially LDoN. Because I pull, the decent DPS i do is secondary. Have a nice day =D
Monks DPS Delux match it with slaves orb and watch the mobs drop BTW monks are DPS in LDoN not pullers FD takes to long have a nice assist message for LDoN
Heehee... I've pulled nearly every ldon mission I've been in. Even before monks got lull (yes, we can lull) I pulled. FD takes too long... I bring singles and doubles (as needed for speed) every time, chained. It's easy as a monk, not only can you FD the mob right on top of the tank so they don't have to peal agro off anyone, but with the instant NO RESIST lull (not 3 second cast) can do so faster and with less risk. Even if there's an accident monks can simply FD the woops off. Only exceptions are when a group member gets too close to puller or puller doesn't pay attention.
Only places I'll admit a bard may be better is in hard missions, as they can pre-slow. Past that it's only the skill of the player, takes less skill for a monk to do the same job a more skilled bard/other class can do in same time. Get a skilled monk puller, and not sure you can get a better puller in normal ldon. Just trying to dispel this rumor monks aren't good or fast pullers in ldon... not sure if you've just had bad experiences or what. Groups I run normally finish in 30-45 minutes depending on LD/afks, if we decide to track down named, etc.
I also ALWAYS pull hard ldons as a monk. Just to note the bard preslow: if the DPS is good enough, I'll pull the next mob at 20% health and the bard will pick up the mob when it gets near the camp and slow/snare or mez -- whatever is needed at the time. This works great every time we've done it.
Jeez Lucy gimme a break........ This isnt that much better than a GIU even lesser stats with no Proc. To list this at 95k is wrong they worth maybe 30 to 40. Listing prices this high on something like this is what cause our wise or rich freinds to find ways to cheat dupe or buy platt. I could buy this item on KB for 100k but no way ill just hack out a few more LDONS and buy one from the merchants thank you........Argulas Deletus 65th Bst Kane Bayle
ok here is the deal if your comparing this to giu you dont understand something....the aug slot is a type 4. there is a 75 lifetap aug in bb for 1150ap so now this weapon is 17/21 with 75 lifetap proc. I have this weapon and its swee but i put the 125 poison proc in it poison just seems to get resisted less for me ....and it procs all the time ..proc cost 510ap in ec .... i am going to put the 75 lifetap proc in my slaves hidden orb that i got yesterday, 1150ap in ec its only 15/19 + 1 poison dmg right now ...but in 8 n ro adv i will put the 2 dmg proc in it making it 17/19. now i will have 17/19 + 1 poison dmg 75 lifetap(+ sumnors boone) in main hand and this one 17/21 125 poison proc in off hand. Now it will be hard for a bl to find a better none no drop h2h set up than that if you have better idea let me know...and both can be got in ldon pric may be high now ...but it could come down ...in future. also just do hard n ro adv ...it should drp for you ..... i dont know i traded my fungus vest for it ....i know ...but i outgrew the vest anyway was good in my 50's now i love my ornate bp and the clicky haste. this weapon rocks for bl simply because their are not alot of none no drop h2h options out their for us. now i dont have to rely only on my pet for nice dps ....with these two weapons im starting to dish out some swee dmg cant wait tell i make my slave's hidden orb 17/19 ill post how i like the set up after i have them auged and have been using for a bit ....later
lol ... it's worth as much (ONLY in COMPARISION to equivalent items) ... yes prices are TOO HIGH ... but comparitively speaking it's worth it!!! ... dps from this is insane!
Heh... these aren't bought in LDoN, they are dropped in a lvl 65 hard mission in Tak. I agree the price is obnoxious, but if you combine these with any of the LDoN bought items you can out-dmg a SoFW (which usually sells for about 90-120k on Xev). I'll never be able to afford, and thus will never buy at this price, buy it's probably a good price set.
The wraps are ok not worth more than 30k maybe 40k if your hard up and cant wait.But just to let you know if you save up 1150 points in EC and 1150 points in NRO camps you can make a 17/19 h2h with same stats then golden wraps and its free.Slaves hidden orb 15/19 in EC 1150 points.then go to NRO camp and get a 2DMG aug cant remember name but its 1150 points.then put a proc in it rajukian bile is nice its called silver flecked crystal of agony 700+ points in EC or radiant permafrost in EF camp 150 DD 710 points and theres one more slot to put anything you like in there. so save your plat or only buy if its a realy realy good deal this item is not worth more than 30k
Well id love to have one but im not uber or twinked. And dont have the cash just laying around to buy one. i guess all i need to do is wait it out with my waning and my zekhas . that i happened to get really cheap. b4 the plat dupe
I had quit for the last 8 months and just come back, checking on all the new drops and such and i see the post about people not knowing their class. Well i have to both agree and disagree, i too have come across MANY people that dont seem to know their class well at all. But just cause u got a monk that couldnt pull in a LDoN (especialy Tak) doesnt mean they dont know what they are doing. I used to be an EXPERT puller but now i am having to come up with new tactics (its what happens when verant trys to throw a curveball) I see more and more groups ASKING the paladin to pull (with pacify) or the bard and not even give me a chance. I can FD pull a room no problem... but with as many mobs that are in some rooms, and the fact that they are casters it makes it time consuming. That and im tired of clerics trying to "help" me by healing me when im pulling... i am used to dieing, healing me while im running towards the camp (but when im about to FD) doesnt help. Now that i ranted.... AWSOME weapon i hope to upgrade my WLK and Ent Mace soon!
You have been gone so you are prolly missing the point. LDON is all about speed. Yes, you can FD pull. However, it is too slow, especially if you are dying. Pac pulling is much more efficient due to its speed.
One thing to note however, on hard setting, our level 65 cleric and ench both got instant aggro when trying to pac pull in Guk. I dont know if the other zones are the same, but in Guk, pac meant near instant death. Our SK tried to FD pull and the HT mobs destroyed him too /shrug
So many people, even some monks just do not get it. Monks now have Instant Lull that only immune mobs can resist. I pull consistant 1-2 mobs at a time without ANY delay on normal LDON. I only have to FD on a bad pull which happens maybe once every other adventure.
Hard LDON's depends on the camp. EC, EF and MM I can all pull with speed. If a monk says he can pull Guk this way, he is full of crap. The targeting sucks in Guk, the mob density is higher and most of them are casters. This all makes monk pulling slow, so send in the bard or pacifier.
It's a nice weapon for a monk, looks good too, if I don't missremember the glow looks the same as the Delightful Orb of Forgotten Magic except the color.

Is the level still recomended or is it a required level? Just asking because I bought the Waning Light Katar thinking it was a recommended level when in actuallity it is a required level.
GUYS STOP COMPLAINING ABOUT LEVEL REQUIRMENTS ON IT. This game is so easy now, verant made it to easy for people to level to 65, to gain nice armer.. weapons, most people can't even play there class right. Level 65 monks who can't pull worth crap cuzz they made it to 65 in 1-3 weeks.
So anyways the level requirment is fair. There is only 2 better EP weapon drops that is h2h. That one nearly matches it, so this weapon is very well good at lvl 65 requirment.
