Ok, I have this item on my necromancer on Bristlebane, I bought it for 500pp a while back off some guy in EC. Lately I've seen people asking 5-8k for it in the Bazaar, could anyone let me in on the secret are are they just dreaming?
Any information would be much appreciated as this matter has me vexed.
5-8k for this item? That's pretty hard to believe. Are you sure it is the right item? This is only worth about what you bought it for, 500pp. But, if they are wanting to buy it for that amount, sell it! You can easily buy a mask of malediction (similar stats, 1 more INT, best for necros) or something like it.
Checked the Bazaar again today and there are three for sale, one for 4.5k, one for 5k and one for 5.5k. To be honest, I think it's worth 500-1k tops, but if someone wants to buy it more, sounds good to me lol.

It was all downhill after that. Verant should nerf Druid. There population is too large. I don't know where anyone gets off thinking that they are doing a good job, while playing the easiest class in the game.
As a druid I surely have the option to solo all my way to lvl 60. But I wouldn't call that easy, because in my eyes a game is about fun. And believe me, soloing is NO fun post lvl 50. Many druids struggle post lvl 50 because its hard to get a group or join a good guild and therefor many chose to go solo and missing the most fun of EQ or quit frustrated. Druids are easy pre 50, but post 50 we aren't!
Very true, though we get better 58+ since we can CH and I for one have been invited countless times to heal in tier1-3 planes. Don't forget the AA Spirit of the Wood, especially when MGB is very handy
Thats why I suggest people play wizards. Can get nice xp raiding, quad best, and with potc mp3 KEI etc, a wizard outdamages a top end equipped war, according to a tDPS thread on graffe's. Wizards unfortunately get it alot harder than druids up to 51... No self healing, no snare up to 29 where it's 5 times shorter in duration, lower AC for anyone bad enough to get hit quadding, SOW/wf.
Come 58 and then the druid gets their next quad spell while the wizard is AEing for much better xp. At that point the wizard is POFr POL chaining or POL POFl chaining to kill twice as fast as the druid can in a quad. The wizard might even be doing double quads. Druids are a bit more useful in groups at 58 too, as they can heal for 3k. Groups will still want to stick with their 7k healing clerics, unless desperate!
Druids are good choice for a few things. First, they are a very easy class to get to 50. Very easy. You have to be a flaming incompetent to find anything about being a druid hard till then(I never found wizard difficult in that period). They are versatile. You can solo or group poorly, but you are better for grouping until late end than a wizard, and better soloing than a cleric.
It's an interesting class. Most pre 40 druid newbies 'love' their class, while most 50s druids I've talked to gripe about their small guns. When you make a char, you should know what you're getting into. Don't whine if you have nobody to blame but yourself for your choice(esp if you flamed me at any point for pointing out the fact that druids have smaller guns than others).

Darkness/Fear does not get you very far in the planes. There are plenty of good Necros, but plenty that just dark/fear, and they are the ones that make comments like these...
I was recently hunting in the arena in Kael Drakkel and one of the giants we killed dropped this mask. So, if you are not allied with the giants and want this item, just kill a lot of crap in Kael. I don't believe this was a quest giver that we killed. I am pretty sure it was just a guard.
Hey bud think you have it wrong the Mask of War is way better than this mask and that's the quest involving the ratman courier in the Dragon Necropolis. If anyone has anyinformation on how to get this weaker mask I'd really appreciate it. Later all.
Im the one that sent in the picture..only thing i can think of is its off a Giant ..there are giant casters(dont know if it came off one) and those giants are always in wars *shrug*
Those of you who think casters can't fight wars have never seen a druid in action =P Why do you think people usually run from desert madmen that have agroed on them...
