I know I'm equally guilty of this from time to time as well, but can we please try to remember that many of the items in the game came out way before Bazaar made it so easy to acquire elite items and when money was so hard to come by, that you had to scrimp and save every copper just to keep yourself in food and water. A lot of us were stuck with the weapon that we were first spawned with for a long time until a rusty or tarnished or something like this came our way. Questing or killing stuff for gear was actually worth it because the loot was almost always better than what you had on you at the time. Nowadays the stuff you can kill at your level almost never drops anything that you can actually use unless you are 50+ and raiding a planar zone. Bazaar and the easier availability of money has definitely made this game a lot less challenging and taken a great deal of the fun out of it. What's the point of fighting stuff if you are uber twinked and the mob doesn't have a hope in hell of winning or if the loot is garbage compared to what you already have on?

If you were me and I were you, would we still be friends?
This zone came online prior to SoL, but not with the original release of eq. It's not much better than a tarnished twohander. I had one for awhile thinking it might be a quest item, but it's just noobie junk.
"TLC" has been removed from the warrens on almost all servers. What the poster was referring to was the TRIVIAL LOOT CODE, which made it so if something was green to you, much if not all of what it had that you could otherwise have looted, would not be there.
For example, killing a kobold runt when you were level 20, you wouldn't find items on the runt that a level 5 might have found on the same runt, on the same kill.
Well, considering that all the the newbie quest swords for pallies are superior to this, and a level 15 can fight for a better 2hs in highpass than this (SBH 16/48), I'd have to agree with the original poster. This is a pretty weak weapon.
With the BABS selling or less than 25pp most days in the bazaar, nobody would use this for long. I recently created a troll SK, and uing ONLY cash from drops and selling loot, I bought an 18/37 sword for 12pp. This was at lvl 6.
This item drops of the warlord in the second room off the king chamber in the first room is the lorekeeper then the second room is the one with the one way pit to the batling caves. that is the room this the warlord pops in he is a common spawn since no one hardly ever comes to this zone on Povar.
just to let you all know it is possible for a higher lvl to loot rare and uncommon drops in warrens i myself being lvl 18 don't have this problem YET but there is a way around the loot code i know because i have aided a higher lvl player with the king and the high shaman if a higher lvl player groups with a lower lvl player the higher lvlplayer will be ableto loot these items so for all of you that says that pally is lying you maywanna knowall the facts first becauseitis possiblethat hes not lying....
Well it doesn't matter any more, but to get around the old TLC all you had to do was make sure the lower lvl was technically awarded the kill. Thus if a higher level were to beat it down, then atone/mem blur, or feign death, the lower lvl could finish it off and loot it.
I have never seen this drop off the king(was there from 5 to 21 in lvl. I have always seen this drop from the Warlord which spawns in the room past the lorekeepers room.
As for my first post, the pally turned out to be a warrior that posted that misleading BS, anyone lvl 38+ i dont suggest going to Warrens unless you want Muglewump, you will be sorely disappointed because nothing can drop for you. My hint to everyone lvl 24 or below if youre in Warrens, do you know where the Rat Room is? ever seen Packmaster Dledsh or whatever? well, if not, i suggest camping him, he has placeholders, they are the Frenzied Rats. Usually youll kill about 5 or so of them before he spawns, and if you time it he spawns about the same rate as the King (every hour to hour and fifteen minutes). Packmaster's common loot is a Packmaser's lash (4d/24 2ac -4cha -3svd choke) not too bad! His rare loot, which i have NEVER seen more than the time i looted it, and have NEVER seen anyone camp the guy but myself is the Filth Covered Boots, sound like crap? they arent, given they arent Uber or close to it, but they are damn nice if i say so. I'm not sure the exact stats but they are something like this (8ac +4sta +3SvD +3SvP -9cha). Yes, it will take some time to get these but...if youre there, it could be worth it. People need to camp the packmaster more, I have a feeling he drops more than the two items that i listed and...i would be the foremost expert, im the only moron with the time to camp him while i was in Warrens for 4 levels, killed him over 100+ times. Sorry about not exact stats they are very if not exact to those stats. I gave them to a guildmember at the time Nortic is his name and he is a Shammy on Tribunal send a tell if you wanna know about them.

Alright, here goes. I have spent alot of time in The Warrens. I have seen and/or looted everything that is basically possible to drop in Warrens. The Blood Crusted Two Handed Sword can drop off of Huntmaster Furgle and King Gragnar. It is not, believe me, it is not a good weapon, even for a newbie...compare this as a newbie weapon to an Axe of the Iron Back, it just doesn't add up! This quest you speak about, that I do not know about, and have never seen the guy in question that starts the quest, I'm not saying he isnt there, just backing you in get a ranger to find him. The teeth you spoke about in the earlier post, are you speaking of the molars? anyways, I like warrens, i think it is an awesome place for anyone lvl 30 to hunt. As some paladin who had the first post i saw said, he was lvl 46 and got the drop? no...sorry bud unless you did that on test server or something...didn't happen, have you ever been to The Warrens? most likely not. The only thing that would drop for you would be Muglewump the huge froglok, everything else would give you a Trivial message, so....not sure if youre lying about using your pally to get it or...just trying to sound cool like you know this place, either way, you didnt see the item, thanks.
OK did you go to warren i spent enough time there to get my IKSAR to Allied status whit the guards of ERUDINE, this said only the MAGICAL, NO DROP or LORE items are trivialized this sword is none of the above i know i looted 7 of them whit my level 30 warrior, ok as for the guy i think i saw him but it was befor i got my faction up and he killed me. Now next time make shure you facts are straigth befor you post them.
I forgot the name of the mob that drops it (was like weapon master or something dont trust me on that) But i know it was behind the room where the lorekeeper(ormaster i forget) spawns and where the hole to batlings are - His PlaceHolder is usually a Kolbold Brawler and i killed him twice with my 47 war and this dropped the second time.
Is there a special graphic for this? Sounds like it would have a red blade or something. But to be totally honest it is a bit underpowered even for a newbie weapon. I think its like most equipment from the warrens, pretty useless even to those it was attempted to be aimed for....
I dout this was aimed at anyone but a brand new newbie. I mean a first time playing EQ newbie. It is more likly there to be just loot for sale to vendor
Someone gave my erudite shadowknight one of these yesterday, its pretty good! I hit for 21dmg and im only level 4. Dunno how it compares with others, but I like it.
Get some better ideas guys in the things u put in the game Verant, waste of time and waste of effort...nontheless i feel bad for you guys.....get a better idea like putting an "ASSASINS BUTTERKNIFE" dmg 1 dly 100...major baddass wep!!
Hey GURK, what is the quest that you use the sword for? Starting a Erudite SK and any quest that I can do before level 20 would be awesome, too lazy to bring other characters over.

I know I am... If you are not a twink and are say level 14 thru 20, where else can u get such great items for this level?? You can't. Plain and simple. My Erudite Paladin would love to get this, but I am only 11 as of yet.
I got one of these and 4 pieces of woven armor when my Sk was level 1 (yesterday) from a gnome warrior. He just gave me a tell saying he had something for me. Does that make me a twink?

If you hav a Soulfire, you have no business being in this zone. No this is not an earth shattering 2hs weapon, and most people who are starting another character will be able to get much better. People brand new to the game, or brand new to the server would find this a good starting 2hs weapon, if just to work on the skill. Also for those under the dmg cap, this isn't too bad. I have heard this is involved in a erudite shadowknight quest, maybe for a better magical weapon?
Actually this sword sux even for a newbie. BIBs are much cheaper than the effort it takes for a true newb to get this. If it is a quest related item then more the better, but as a stand alone weapon (for ANYONE) it is severly lacking Im afraid.
Of course it's not magic, yes it drops from a named mob but your still overlooking the fact that its a lvl 15 named mob. NO lvl 15 mob is going to drop a magic weapon
lol they really screwed up on this zone. I mean come on, the idea isn't that bad, but they filled this zone with stuff a level 5 doesn't need. You can easily have 100pp at level 15 and you can buy much better stuff than what's found in the warrens, for a low price. Come on, who the heck would use this **** at level 15?

Posted:Mar 25 2001 at 10:00 AM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) your gay i am lvl 17 troll SK and infact got 17 there i like this zone it has nice loot and i got 40pp in 2hours i would say it was nice. although weaopns r crappy when u sell them to merchents u egt a good 5pp. thats better than befallen, cb, or oasis....rusty short sword cloth bracer or bronze yari(3pp) and soft wicker (green leather look or 3-5gp) u do the math this is a nice zone and very profitable.
This doesn't drop off of random kobolds, so I'm guessing it's for an undiscovered and/or unimplemented quest. Probably obtained from a named mob, or one of the batlings.
It drops off the King. Seems to be quite rare, too, killed him 4 times, and he only dropped it once. You'd figure the King of the kobolds would at LEAST carry a magic weapon. Verant has really dropped the ball in the Warrens.
