I searched all of Thurgadin and not one velium short blade, there were tons of velium short swords. Meg Tucter did not have one of these for sale. Did they remove it from vendors or do they just appear randomly on vendors?
I got this for 50pp from somebody emptying bank acount. I asked around about this afterwords, and i only heard good things. i was also told it was great for a ranger of my lvl, and got it for a good price. i was pretty happy with this buy.
i went to the bazaar and saw one for 90pp, i didn't buy it cause i was waiting to see what the other weaps were doing cause it would spent all my money almost. i left and came back in a couple hrs and it was gone. i checked the others and they were 300 and 400pp which probably went done alot. instead i bough a sarnack skullplitter for 100pp. http://www.magelo.com/eq_view_profile.html?num=480938 lorganthi 18rng bertox
i think some people are confusing this with the velium short sword. this sucker is much better and worth a lot more. velium short sword is worth like 50pp. i could be wrong tho...anyone back me up on this?
I was auctioning to buy a 1hs in EC when a druid /t me to come get it for free. That weight is sweet for my "weak" erudite sk. I tried a 13/31 sword for a while (forget the name) but went back to this one. The other was just to slow and when I'm trying to interrupt casters, I want to hit as often as possible while bashing with my shield.
yup I bought mine for my rogue, for 65pp + some gold from a dubious vendor in eurdin! (guildy found it and GT to guild,,, I was the happy porter to stop buy and pick it up for my alt rogue :)
note to self: check vendor crap for good stuff! sometimes you get lucky.
also found regular dimond on a vendor once to... was about 250pp, but better then buying from players for 300pp (ya I need better cha gear ;)
Finally saved up 100pp, and feeling rich, decided to get my lvl 12 warrior butt to the Bazaar to see if I could find a better 1HS than my Shan'Tok. Nobody seems to use that place for selling yet, but looked around on the vendors to see if there was anything of interest.
Picked up this item for 60pp. Thought it was just a regular Velium Short Sword at first (about the same price from NPCs), but the dmg/dly ratio seemed better, so I nabbed it. Looking at the prices here, I would say it was a good deal -- now to find a better piercing weapon...
Hehe you definately got a better deal than me. I bought mine for 800pp from my guild leader. Of course she is a Rogue so it was understood that I would be robbed. Hehe.
who cares on the damage of a proc if its a good weapon, granted a high damage proc is good, but any proc will help taunt and aggro the mobs off the casters.

Posted:Sep 11 2001 at 12:07 AM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) I'm not on to often, but I'm always in EC and lookin fer one of these. Trading a whip of strangulation and a bag of nice goodies. Just gimme a tell as Tallicus
I bought one of these a while back for around 300pp, and then it was only 9/24 and +5 sv magic I belive, good thing they made it better , hehe. I'm wanting to upgrade this to a Glowing Black Sword, I understand the Glowing Black Swords effect is horrid but im only a 35 Ranger and the Glowing Black Swords proc doesnt even start until level 50 I believe, so Is this a good idea or not. And i can just twink a new char with it later, too.
Just to let you know I had a Glowing Black Sword up until level 45 when it procs (not 50, i wish!) They are a nice weapon, and i would definately buy one since you can use it for 10 levels (though in the time from September to now you may be 45). Erollsi Marr prices are 1k - 3k but don't pay 3k because you will not sell it for that much guarenteed. At least on my server. GL to ya and hope the info is of use to someone, if not the original poster.
Proc is the same as any velium weapons...ohwell who needs the proc when you have a 10/24 weapon. A very nice weapon but does not look as good as the warswords. Maybe that's why this weapon only worth 1k. If this weapon had a better graphic, price would skyrock to an end price of 1.5-2k.
Looks is everything in this game. Who cares about killing enemies faster..its all about style =P And if we die early...make sure you die with a great fashion sense...who knows the enemy may be mez by your awesomeness =P

12dd proc weapon off of a 45th lvl MoB? Does anyone else think this is weak. An upgrade in the proc would make this a pretty sweet weapon..make it at least 50+ to compare with a SSOY.
LOL making it 50 Damage proc would let players solo easier....and we all know how much SOE hates that!!! It would be nice but will never happen. save about 100kp and buy a good weapon in Bazaar (.........) or buy a Fungi Tunic instead (-).(o)
Ok, the proc is only 12dd, however it seems to proc on average twice as often as "regular" velium weapons or even the SSoY...oh yeah, it also procs at level 1 (regular veliums start at 25, SSoY has been upped to 37+).
Found one of thes for sale at a vendor bought it for 45 plat from a vendor(24/9 plus resistance and effect for a mere 45)????? The vendor pricing with velious stuff must be seriously out of whack.....don't tell verrant tho BTW.
