I honestly cannot believe all the complaints. lets look at some of the actual history here for those whining about RP aspects shall we?
when kunark first came out and the rumors of greenmist started floating around we got some history of the iksar. I am having trouble finding it now but lets recap.
1. Trolls lived on kunark at one point. they left after the green mist and battle in field of bone that left all the bones.
2. they came to antonica. made peace with the ogres. GAVE THE OGRES the sword (which was rumored to be the sk epic called greenmist at the time) (this was before the sk epic was in game). The sword was put onto the island south of innothule in agreement between ogres and trolls.
now tell me why, if trolls came from kunark and they had the sword , and they gave it to ogres, that they should be unable to, from a roleplaying perspective, obtain it again? They actually fought against the Green Mist (trak or whomever it was). and now, how many of you iksar have gotten green mist wihtout the help of others besides iksar? come on, make me laugh.
from a non-rp perspective. iksar can use either greenmist or innoruuks curse. they have a choice. other SKs do not. Ever since greenmist came out my sk was envious. he uses 1hs, 1hb and piercing. he had no intention of getting innoruuks curse and I hoped one day to be able to do the quest. you should want what is best for your guild, you fellow group members, and situations. and if you expect any enchanters, mages, wizards, or clerics to help you with getting the greenmist you should stfu about roleplaying aspect because you should not be grouped with them anyways.
Thanks Verant for making it usable by all sk races. not easy to do getting all that faction since it is very time consuming, but well worth it for the FEW shadowknights that use 1hs vs 2h for big damage and less aggro.
