Just won the roll on this beauty last night -ratio is nearly identical to Icetooth, but with great stat buffs. The lowish delay is a great thing, considering it can go in my 40th warriorette's offhand, which the claws couldn't. And now I can ditch my claws for some pp!
#Anonymous, Posted: Apr 10 2001 at 4:35 AM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) Is that all anyone does is cry when they can't use an item? someone said that iksar can use almost all swords.... so why is it necessary they be able to use this one too? Race choice should factor in availability of useable items as well as faction and class restriction. It is a cool idea.

If it's part of some overall plate thing, I find it odd that I can use it as a Ranger. I'm pretty happy with it, mostly excited to have finally gotten a drop in SS at all ... it's about the same damage dealing as, say, an Icetooth Claw or a Crystallized Sword (1hs) - but with Str 5 and Dex 5 and 3 to all saves. So it's still pretty nice.

#Anonymous, Posted: Mar 18 2001 at 5:42 AM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) duh, we cant use the most armour on the game and now we cant use even all the weapons that other warrior races can. DUH!

I got one, really not good enough to be noi drop in my opinion. My mudman gives out better damage overall, but this looks really nice and has lots of stat boost.
Nerfed

This sword was also nerfed. First day or so of Velious it was 10/24 and I liked it alot. Then it became 9/24. Not sure what the point of the nerf was, now it's a slighly underpowered weapon considering the hastle you have to go through to get it.
#Anonymous, Posted: Jan 03 2001 at 3:25 AM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) why the fark can't iksar use this? its not like its plate LOL
Well...
# Jan 03 2001 at 4:15 AM Rating: Excellent
Well, there is a suit of Guardian Armor which is plate-based. This appears to be part of that set because it has the same name and also drops off the same stuff. Mayhap that is the reasoning behind it being non-iksar... it's part of a plate set.

Good Observation but if thats why verrant made it no Iksar Thats pretty DUMN
RE: Well... You want Logic?

If you want logic, what about the shape of the grip, is't not quite right for those scaly iskar taloned claws and it looks to normal. If you wanted it for the Iskar then you needed to have some more abstract, you know.. Like a Crazy Straw!


:P

/sigh

i understand that its part of the armor set, but its a freakin sword. theres a ton (every other sword, i think, besides size limitations) of other swords that iksars can use. besides size or class restrictions, iksars can use damn near the same about of weapons any other race could.

lazy programming strikes again :)
RE: Well... You want Logic?

But wouldn't it be easier to flag the races as all, and not put now everyone who can use it?
RE: Well... You want Logic?
# Jan 04 2001 at 1:47 PM Rating: Default
Oops. Put down everyone who can use it.

i have seen plenty of weapons that only iskars can use. Maybe this a way of payin those damn iskars back.
