Ruins of Kunark
Every wonder that question? It looks like a few people have reading this thread.
Level bonus = (level - 25 / 2)
Max damage = (weapon skill + strength / 100) x (weapon damage + level bonus)
My 24 War example (35 + 146 / 100) x (28 + 0) = 50.68 damage. 51 is what he max hits for also.
This has worked for me with all my weapons, critical hits and crippiling blows excluded.

I don't believe that is quite accurate, I believe its covered at this spot though for those interested in the full math:

Great post for Monks, thanks for helping me with a better place to find Monk related math for damages.
EDIT: Morigu, great post. In my ignorance I didn't read the long, long post after I saw all the stuff about monk related terms. Better, and probably more accurate than the formulas in my first post.

It works for all melee classes, INCLUDING warriors who can use the above weapon. The damage calculation for a single hits the same no matter who you are.
The main difference's between classes is more on how often you hit, example how often you double attack, or duel wield successfully with your second hand. Your question was how hard does this hit for, if you don't feel like reading, here it is(unless they have changed it lately it should be still true):
Modal Damage:
------------
(VERY SLOW) IF WeaponDelay > 42
1.) DamageBonus = One Handed DamageBonus + ((Level - 27) / 4) + (WeaponDelay - 34) / 3
2.) PrimaryModal = WeaponDamage * 2 + DamageBonus
Maximum Damage:
--------------
(VERY SLOW) IF WeaponDelay > 42
1.) DamageBonus = One Handed DamageBonus + ((Level - 27) / 4) + (WeaponDelay - 34) / 3
2.) MaximumDamage = WeaponDamage * ((Strength + WeaponSkill) / 100) + DamageBonus

fantastic wepon i got it for 75pp from a monk i bought a whole bunch of armor from my 21 warior can hit for up to 57 with this baby

I'm selling one of these on Solosek Ro for 500pp, if anyone wants it, send me a tell...

Posted: Jan 07 2002 at 11:11 AM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) I have one for sale on the solusek ro server for cheap
Lord Gorelik is one pretty tough cookie. I went to kill him with a 19 shaman and at 44th war myself, we got beat up dead. He has hard hitting dots and his pet was hitting on my lower lvl partner. We got him down to about 30 % when we died. He roams around a square of tunnel which would be to the right rear areas from the left tunnel entrance of LOIO. His spawn is pretty common I think because since then I went back about 4 more times to kill him with a better prepared group and he was always there. I dont have tracking ability so I cant confirm his spawn time, repop time, or despawn time for sure.
Now as for the staff, compare it to the other wpn I also have: Drakkel icegrinder 27/45 15lbs RNG/SHM/CLR/PAL/SHD/WAR/MNK. The staff sells for about 300pp on my server and the Ice grinder for about 1000-1200pp. When counting in the Ice rend effect of the Ice grinder, it may do more or less damage depending on your DEX to make it proc. From my experience most warriors somehow think it is un-manly or something to weild a 2HB wpn and so usually dont put much practice into this wpn skill. And since the Mith staff is WAR only, it is hard to find a buyer for it if you are not a warrior. Well, lets say harder to find a buyer than for a similar 2HS wpn. Thats why I think the prices are so low for such a good dmg/delay wpn as this is.
So what do I do? I sell my Icegrinder for coinz to invest in a better needed item and use the Mith staff for all my 2HB work. Some people still tell me "how come you are using 2HB, don't you have anything better?". I'll tell you why. Do a search on 2HB war only wpns from the high lvl zones and you will see. Think about it. If I am the only Warrior on a raid that does 2HB and a no-drop 2HB War only wpn drops, guess who gets it? Skip the lotto, it goes to me. Not being greedy or anything, I just believe in being well rounded in all wpns skills and not the dual-wield warrior that only ever touches 1HS or maybe 2HS because somehow it is more "manly".

heheh, my warrior gets a lot of comments when he's seen using 2HB and piercing weapons. go figure. He's an ogre and manages to keep all his melee skills up (not including hand-to-hand) I encountered another warrior that *only* uses 2HS. he doesn't even practice 1HS. the sad thing is once he gets past 20 he's going to have a hell of a time getting any of those other skills up if he wants any kind of flexibility (like actually using a shield)

Damage bonus of 12. Just killed Lord today for one.
How many times does it have to be said? Damage bonus is dependant on the level of your character. There is no set Damage bonus for an item. A level 30 warrior holding this might see a damage bonus or 2 or something... not 11 like you do.
What's the spawn time on this shaman gobby dude and how often does he drop the "stick o' death" he drops?

I must say I love my staff. I have had it since lvl 1, (got it from a friend) and up to 20 was hitting up to 40 dmg each. after 20 jumped to 56-60 dmg each. now at 30 im 80-90 dmg and loving it. I suggest u pick one up and twink your newbie tanks with them. You'll be the talk of the town.

Anyone think that it's odd that this WAR only weapon drops off of a shamman? Just kinda wierd is all.
Maybe it's Warrior/any race useable, and Goblin/ Shammie useable... Next time I make up a Gobbie Shaman I might try one out. =)
I"m just saying, it makes sense that some items are useable by class/ race combinations that aren't available to us.

I got this today in a trade. A warrior came up to me, I being a warrior of the 28th, and asked for my crafted boots, he said he would give me 450pp, this great weapon and a walrus tooth! OMG i cant thank the man enough. I hit for about 65 avg with this weapon.

This weapon has about the exact same damage/delay ratio if you include the miths sword haste effect.
And the mithril 2 hand swords tend to sell for more then this weapon.
One more fact...This weapon can be combined with haste items the mith sword cannot!
In short...I'd take this over a mith sword any day.

I think one of the reasons the Mithril Sword sells for more is because of demand. The Staff is warrior only while the Sword is open to more classes; hence more ppl want...higher price.
I wish paladins can also use but we do ok.

The mith 2hander DOES stack with haste spells and with haste mith is 21/30-31...with haste mith 2hander can go as low as 21/20..I know we tried with a chronometer.

I have both the sword does stack with haste spells but not other haste items, the staff stacks with both at the same time. Although the FBSS is 21% haste whereas the sword is 31% haste
IMHO the staff is better.

Yes, it does stack with haste spells but I don't believe it stacks with other haster items like fbss (At least I don't think so, but I dont own sword). That being the case you could ultimately do more damage over time with the staff with fbss and haste spells than you could do with sword

What Verant said when they changed the way haste stacked some time ago:
You get 1 item, and 1 spell to stack. 2 items won't stack... 2 spells won't stack. If a item procs a spell, like the exe axe, then it will stack with an item.
