Magic DMG
# Aug 18 2002 at 1:52 PM Rating: Decent
When a weapon has magic dmg like this one, does it add 5 dmg to what you hit for? or does it add more than 5...sorta depending on level ie: at level 1 with a 3 dmg weapon you do 9 or 10 dmg, at 60 with a 3 dmg weapon you hit for 21...

From my understanding this is how it works. When you try to hit an npc, it has to make a check against SVM. If the npc makes a successful check vs. magic, then the weapon hits as if it were 16/29 only. If the npc fails the save then it hits as a 21/29 weapon. Again, i'm not 100% but I believe this is how +magic damage works (as well as +fire, cold, disease, etc).

Yes, you're correct. The LSoEE is a 16/29 through 21/29 weapon depending on the resist check.

ack, i forgot about how damage bonus is calculated. Any help is appreciated, since i know how much that has been discussed (i literally JUST forgot). Thanks everyone!
RE: Magic DMG
# Sep 25 2003 at 10:44 PM Rating: Default
The damage bonus does not add onto the original weapon damage, it is a modifier for the amount of the damage done. Example: You are using a 5/21 with a damage bonus of 3. That does not turn the weapon into a 8/21, it makes it so you can never do below 3 damage with the bonus added on. At least thats what I hear, don't flame me if I'm wrong.

thats because btw i have no idea how i got bicaule
RE: Magic DMG
# Apr 29 2004 at 5:06 AM Rating: Decent
damage bonas in my exp. is not added to the end damage but rather added to the multiplier. ie. a 13/21 wep w/ a 9 damage bonas is a 22/21 wep. i know this bicaule i have a 13/21 wep w/ a 9 damage bonas and i hit for 1 sometimes meaning it cant be added to the end damage. i hope this helps.

Yep I use that setup too, its great. Even if the magic damage on this sword is resisted, its still an ok sword, 16 29 isn't bad.
LSoEE & Sarnak Parrying Blade
# Jul 31 2002 at 4:38 AM Rating: Decent
How do you think a LSoEE in primary and a Sarnak Parrying Blade in offhand would work for a ranger?
I know they not are very fast but I dont wanna take aggro.
Looks?

How does this thing look when equiped?
RE: Looks?
# Jul 02 2002 at 7:34 AM Rating: Decent
Since I now have one I will reply to my own question.

Is is a medium length fairly thin blade with a golden hilt.

the blade is transparent, much more noticeable in outdoor zones or zones with a light ground (Marus Seru, any Velious zone, etc). It's fairly small when I'm in halfling form but the sword looks much better when I'm in Iksar or Erudite form since it's larger.

edit: here's a link when I'm in Iksar form -

I took my helmet off so it wouldn't block the blade. It's hard to see but the blade is slightly transparent. Not as cool looking as the Ranger epics but still not a dull looking sword.

LOL. Did you guys never see a Velious weapon before ? I'm a bit disappointed actually when I traded one for a Holgresh Bead Necklace :) .. that it looks exactly like a Crystallized Sword. But I'll live :)

Anymore I've seen them for around 9k, atleast on Vazaelle. Seems that the people who could afford them have already bought them, and now it's open for the 'normal' player, using the term loosely of course.
Upset
# Apr 22 2002 at 11:59 PM Rating: Decent
They took out the quest mob right when I got done collecting the items needed. I waited and waited, mob came back and I quickly turned in all my items so I can finally leave lucin and go back to skyfire. looked into bag to see scimitar. Someone wanted to sell me the long sword for 3kpp but I was too mad to buy it. I wanted sword but I should have gotten long sword by quest instead of scimitar. Now I see people WTB long sword for 10kpp... *sigh..* can't sell scimitar for even 700pp
thank you verant
# Apr 21 2002 at 2:51 AM Rating: Default
all i can say is i love this sword. i found out about this quest very early on. with a 45 ranger i was able to solo every mob and complete quest in about 3 to 6 hours, depending on maricella camp. Ebban wasnt easy, but once i learned his pathing i was able to arrow kite him all over the city and never get hit once. anyway i have to say i exploited this quest and was doign it 1 to 2 times a day till nerfed. i hooked all my friends up with it and sold and traded many of them. all and all i made well over 100k in cash from this quest till it was nerfed. i was upset when it finally was but i cant say i didnt make out like a bandit on this one. even though i dont even use this sword anymore i still keep one in the bank just for memorys sake hehe

15 ac for an offhander, 1.812 ratio with 16 damage is Awesome! Personally I can deal with the 5 str and stam loss, considering the 12 dex will help my Frostbringer in primary to proc.
The AC from the Frosty and the LSOEE combined give my ranger 22 more AC. That is insane. That is awesome. Coupled with a haste belt (silvery contention) I must say I am pleased with the damage output, the whole combo, AC included all in all for my ranger. The fact that the LSOEE no longer drops, inevitably means the price will hold steady ground, if not increase as well as antique value. Hehe 15ac offhand 16 dam 1.812 ratio. Two thumbs up.

# Apr 01 2002 at 5:41 PM Rating: Default
Not a bad weapon. Combined with Swiftwind secondary and LsoEE primary. I see Lvl 50+ wars running around with this and frostbringer. I was pretty impressed with this weapon that i got one for my 45 war with bloodfire primary. "even though bloodfire aint proc'n now"

Now with the war i get some nice eye candy crits, and more better crips! and no more 1 damage hits.

45 war.

btw got both lsoee's for 15k each... ouch, but worth it.

I love this thing, only problem is is that I get tells and harrassed from individuals looking to buy it. One thing if i was seling I would be auctioning. Now the fun part they offer me a bunch of stuff that I don't need for it.

I'm sorry I won't trade it. They then ask how much I would be willing to sell it. hmmm 300k they usually leave me alone after this but to me this is how much this weapon is worth. I don't care what the average pc on it is.

You traded well, this weapon is fantastic which is why it was removed basically. The quest was NOT really that easy at the time though.. it took me 2 and a half hours just to get the dagger drop off that lady in Paludral. It was sort of easy when only a few people knew about it I guess. Once there was always a line and the guy in the bar in fungus was always dead, it was harder.

My 36 sk has this and it frankly beats the crud out of a noct blade which people always try to sell for around 9 k or more. So I'm sure happy I got this before possibly buying a noct. This has FIFTEEN AC ON IT and the 10 mr and 12 dex are not hay either (as a troll sk the dex is nice.. mine was kind of low with crusty plate on)

The ratio is not that marvelous, but with the 15 ac and the fact that if the 5 damage is added in on a hit its a 29 spd 21 damage weapon this thing is really nuts. I originally thought that the 5 damage was only added on after the end so it would always be just a 29 spd 16 dam weapon plus 5 damage AFTER the fact, but the people on the safehouse.org with all their log parsers set me straight, if the 5 damage is applied its 5 more to the RATIO damage ;)

This is really a great weapon for an sk and pally and I'd probably also use it in the primary hand for a ranger or warrior until they were pretty darn high level and had something a lot better then this would be great in the off hand. If I had a ranger or warrior twink right now I'd get the post nerf scimitar and have that in their off hand at dual wield level.. fun combo with 2 ac weapons ;)

Not sure if its worth 19 k but seeing what else goes for 19 k I'd say it was. Its not in the game now. You might be using this for a long time really.

I'm looking to get one of these for my rogue. 15 ac along with 12 dex in the offhand? Perfect.

edit: woohoo found one finally.. CentiLS goes in the bank. EXCELLENT offhand for my rogue. I was hitting low 50s with the CentiLS; LSoEE I'm hitting low 70s (can't wait to break skill caps at 51). Another added benefit is the light weight of the sword; CentiLS 6.5, LSoEE 2.0. I don't have to ask for ZING in long battles as much anymore.

Taunt Factor
# Jan 24 2002 at 9:02 PM Rating: Default
I just leveled to 55 so this info is as a 54 Barbarian Warrior, I have an interesting theory here. What got me thinking about it was that I usually use a Defiance in Primary and Frostbringer in offhand for primary tanking situations. Even with this fast combo and all skills maxed I sometimes had trouble maintianing aggro over guildmates who are level 60. I use the Frostbringer in main and the LSoEE in offhand for times when I am just there for dealing damge. Here is what is odd, the last couple times grouping in Maiden's Eye, I was secondary behind a 58 pally (we did it to humor the pally) I found myself continually pulling aggro from the paladin without taunting. I switched to fast weapons to check difference and got no aggro. This goes totally against conventional theory of speed and hits = more aggro. Soooo.. I am wondering if the check the weapon does against magic creatures to add the extra damage or not, acts as a resisted spell at times which would explain the insane aggro on only certain mobs. No idea on how to prove or disprove this idea but got to admit it's an interesting concept. Still a dam nice sword either way you look at it.

damage bonus
# Jan 23 2002 at 2:34 PM Rating: Decent
Afer reading some of these posts, it seems like some of you are mislead by the damage bonuses.
there is not a damge bonus of 11 for everyone, it depends on your level. like starting at level 30, i believe, you get an extra damage bonus every so many levels,
just thought i would point that out, in case some may have missed that.
