Posted: Aug 06 2002 at 5:57 AM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) I know im gonna start some big arguement about how long it takes to get to this point in the game, and only a few people are ever going to get this. Thats bull. I got my first char to 60 in a month... thats it, not very hard just gotta stop ******** around and begging from peeps higher lvl than you and do it. People with high lvl chars shouldnt be looked up to, the more you look up to them the bigger their ego gets and the more they will ignore you ). anyways i think this weapon blows, i rather put vyemm's left eye in my warriors prim than this crap.

Um... Beastlord = uses mana
Ranger = uses mana
Far better weapons for a drood by this time in game...

13 (with fire damage) 17 is still very good for the melee in most guilds that are in NToV these days. 17 delay is pretty hard to top even today.

You can go over 255, lol. I've done it. Even when my dex was 169 with just my gear, the 44 enchanter spell boon of the garou would put me past 255.. so.. you guys can just keep crying all you damn well please.
And, again, trance sticks do not proc that much. They *CAN* proc a lot, but on the whole, they do not proc that often.

umm I don't belive this post, I personally haven't even come close to 255 dex. As a programmer I would not be dumb enough to make this kind of stat an integer. An unsigned character value is good enough for this task. If it were over 250 it would most likely go back to 1, 256 being one 257 = 2... In which case I would program it to analize it and make it 250. I say 250 because that number looks so much nicer then 255.
Now there are stats like hp and mp that do deserve a nice pretty unsigned integer. Now hp is a more visable number and it appears more devistating to you as a player when you have a big ol dragon hitting you for more then that small 250. Now the stats like str, cha, sta are not so visible, and by making it an unsigned char you control over twinking and even save a small bit a memory reserved for those stats.
I'm not a heavy programmer as I have not yet even finished high school, but this is my opinion. Feel free to fire away

Ok now no offence but you are WRONG!!! Max stats are 255

Lol, I just have to reply to this with a WTH are you talking about?!? Integers do not function off clock arithmatic like that unless you are dealing with extremely large numbers. You can program so that after 255 (which IS the max) the text displayed and used in calculations is just 255, all additional modifiers truncated.

I thought you couldnt get over 255dex , or any stat for that matter... how did you get 348 ?

I don't know that stats can't be listed as over 255, but I do know that over 255 they lose ALL effectiveness. This is according to Verant, a statement they made quite a while back.

Please ignore, heh
For one, you CAN NOT go over 255 in any stat, I know, I have primal weapons and whenever im fighting my stats look like this str 255 stam 189 dex 255 and agi 255,(avatar adds 100 to str,dex,agi) and 2 have you ever bothered to look up some high end velious monk weapons, monks get things like priceless/primal fistwraps(15/20) fist of lighting(15/18 secondary only), gharns rock of smashing(16/19 with a 150 dmg proc, primary useable) Wurmscale fistwraps(14/18)and I could go on and on...

with the new PoP AA point you can go over 255 in all stats!

Ya know, I really get tired of people posting replies to items such as this saying something like..."Too bad this does not have a proc...that would be awesome, then"
In ToV, I am sure that the proc would not even stick most of the time...so if you stick with a weapon just because it has a nice proc...what does that do for ya then? Hmm? Jack squat. The ratio and stats are nice. Simple as that. In my opinion, the dmg/dly ratio is what counts in the long run. Tanks dealing their damage is what matters. Simple as that.

Good post. Ranger/Monk/Bard/Rogue + proc = one less ranger, monk, bard, or rogue on the raid.

hmmm... 58 + NToV and we are talking about lvl 30 attainable haste item? by now u should have at least a 30%+ haste item, or epic haste for rangers and rogues. others should have either CoF from Ixi and Talendor (or got one back in naggy days), RBB from Gore, haste neck from Xana, etc.

Posted: Oct 18 2001 at 5:16 PM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) I think its a nice weapon but... No proc.. i think i would rather use my deadwood staff. not as good in dam to del but it does a 50point life drain and gives me 50 life (effect Lifedraw) Thats one fourth of a hit every time it goes off. 1/4 may not be alot but every 4 procs thats one hit i didnt take practically... although i still wouldnt mind having it.

You gotta watch those lifetap procs though, you can really get in trouble. From experience I know this. I've got a 56 SK and I use a Soul Leach (off Cazic) which has a 75dmg lifetap proc built in, plus I can cast a spell on myself that gives me another 50dmg lifetap proc. I find myself often FD'ing during fights, especially raid situations, since my dex is fairly high too, so they proc a fair deal of the time.
It is very nice, I can tank a fair deal of stuff, keep the taunt on me almost better than warriors if I taunt and disarm too (disarm has a small amount of aggro built into I think, it helps), and the cleric will look at me like "WTF? Why am I not healing you?" I was goofing around in L Guk one time (I was really bored and couldn't find a group, so I'm like, well, I'll just go there.) I wasn't losing life at all. The phrog hit me, I lifetap procced it back. Everyone was staring at me funny.
A warrior has almost no chance to out-taunting me if I also drop in a nice 250hp lifetap spell plus shadow vortex (12ac tap) on the mob. However, my AC is a bit low (only around 1050 buffed, I really need better gear), so it gets scary SOMETIMES.
But on raid situations, it's so nice it's almost annoying. FD'ing to lose aggro is something I don't drastically mind doing (since it keeps me alive) but I really have to watch those lifetap procs.
Anyways, my point is, watch lifetap procs, they can be VERY VERY nice, but they can be very detrimental as well.

I think people often times underestimate how viable the shadowknight class is for both raiding and grouping. In raids SKs bring superb pulling abilities (a good SK with death peace is a pulling machine add spells for spell pulling and usually higher AC/HP, and they can even be as good as a monk in some cases). Also, don't count SKs out for main tanking... if a mob doesn't need defensive a SK can be much better than a warrior. Why?, they have more taunt than a warrior, lifetap spells to keep themselves alive longer, and just about as much AC and HP as a warrior. All very important things, and I have been on at least a few raids which included fighting level 60 mobs where a SK was selected main tank and did a better job than a non-uber warrior could do.
As for exp grouping, my common group is comprised of a shaman, SK, and warrior (myself) all level 60. The SK pulls, and tanks, keeps taunt better than me and rarely ever needs healing from the shaman because of his taps. We do this for those reasons and because, since I deal more melee dmg, I can get a much better DPS (damage per second) increase by standing behind the mob then he can, and I can also use my offensive discs (agressive is fun =)) without worry.
Just thought I would put in a little info about this... I was constantly underestimating shadowknights until I got to know how powerful they actually are.

Uhm, well seeing warriors and rogues ALSO get some nice lifetap procs, I seriously doubt a warrior with a lifetap weapon, their improved taunt, and two weapons with fast ratios could be out-taunted by a SK.

Hybrids easily outtaunt warriors if they have half a brain.
Rangers - Taunt, Flame Lick, Kick, Beg, Snare, Taunt. That mob'll be on you the whole fight.
SK - AC tap, Taunt, Beg, Disease Cloud, Disease Cloud, Taunt.
Paladin - Taunt, Stun, Beg, Root, Flash of Light, Stun, Taunt.
What can a warrior do?
Taunt, Kick, Beg... Taunt, Kick, Beg.

I think in most cases, the secondary tanks ARENT supposed to be out taunting the warriors. Warriors = more ac, which means easier for the cleric to keep alive without burning all thier mana and getting aggroed. So what is all this about "SKs can taunt better than warriors." That is a bad thing not a good thing.

So true, warriors with half decent weapons taunt so well

Ack why would a ranger/rogue wanna taunt aggro on himself anyway lol. Aggro on ranger and rogues at that lvl usually means death.
Hmmm. Level 57 Rogue and he still can't spell it correctly. /sigh

"its not even magic." um, yes, if you want to get technical it doesn't have close the the same ratio, any AC or stats, no HP/mana, is 1hs instead of 1hb, and not monk usable either...SO basically, the point is...don't try to act smart, cuz u're just gonna sound stupid when everybody else realizes he was kidding except for you. Oh, and leave out the random "lol" and "rofl" because they just make you sound like a stupid acne-faced little kid...i can hear your voice in real life now..."i can beat you in a duel lol rofl huhhuh that was cool, stfu beavis"
