In the age of the 13k blade of Disruption 43/30 (on Bertoxx anyway) this weapon and basically all others sucks *** now....this weapon it for a noob. Heck the reaver which has no lvl restriction is 40/40 2 hander. I do remember once apon a time wanting more then anything the sword of pain from the pit in velks but these swords are useless now.

Reasons this is good:
the ratio, for a 1hs this is a great ratio for no level requirement and you can hold a shield, plus you will hold agro better, I had this on my 14 sk and it rocks any 2 hander I used.

Stats: These are pretty good stats for what its on.

Weight: This may not seem like much but 0.0 weight is alot better than 25.0, I don't know if they switched endurance to work like stamina did, but if they did this would make things alot easier than swinging a reaver.

Look: It looks cool, come on this is alot better looking than a reaver.

Price: for 0 plat you can get this fine sword where for 6k you can get a reaver or higher for dispersion and windblade.

Dropped last night off Spirit of Tawro and would have rotted, but someone picked it up. Would have been a shame to let it just rot there (of course, my Pally and SK are too wee for UP right now...would have been a great upgrade from Defiance! lol)
#REDACTED, Posted: Jul 22 2003 at 8:02 AM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) Theres a guy named Dominatoor on my server. He plays 4 players at once (boxing) Shaman,druid,cleric,mage not sure on levels.. but about 65 on all i bet. Well i won't go into a long story about what each class did... cause im sure u know (shaman slow ect.) But he kills like all the named mobs in UP. Prolly not doomshade though. But anyway he is always selling loot rights to things like this and Longsword of freedom. Well i just bought it from him and i love it! At my level nnow it easily out DMG my 2hs... oww yeai got it for 5.5k =)

I'm gonna call you out on the ********* considering Radir/Tawro/Zel's DPS unslowed, you (even at 6k hp unbuffed) wouldn't live long enough to recharm a Zelinak or root (espi considering radir/tawro/zel are near immune to snare :P)

I've carried this weapon for a while now and I have to say something about it. For me, it has changed the entire feel of the game. For the first time in my career as a paladin, I can actually solo even without helm healing. It's FUN to see a critter's hitpoints drop fast because I'm smacking it. That's not something I ever got to see before.

20/24 lays out serious DPS. My buddy plays a 53 rogue (without a haste item, I've told him he's nuts) and the melee damage from this axe compares nicely to his normal melee. That seems crazy, but with SCHW and Valor of Marr I always run over 40% haste. I hit amazingly often, sometimes more than that dual-wielding rogue with fast weapons. Each blow is much more damaging than his daggers, up to 80+ per blow. Now, when he lands a backstab, that's another matter...

I put aside my beloved Sword of Morning. I can still outtaunt anyone when they need it, but I have more precise control of my agro, and I'm a significant source of damage.

Here's a side-note about haste. To calculate the delay of a hasted weapon, try dividing the listed delay by 100% plus your total haste. If you ever had 100% haste, you'd be dividing by 2.0, meaning your weapon would be exactly twice as fast as listed.

In my case, divide 24 by 1.4 to see I'm running about 20/17. Again, this blade rocks.

our group did Spirit of Tawro and he drop'd this long with a bracer of beauty. The kick in the pants is we had no Sk or Pally with us. So it rotted. On leaving of the we found another named mob..tried to pull it and got agro'd by 5 mobs and had to run for it.
honor
# Sep 03 2002 at 4:32 PM Rating: Default
*cough* Shadow Knight? honor? ..... to the best of my RP knowledge honor would constitute a strict adherence to a moral code, Shadow knight may be lawful evil, however the status provides the view that the ends justify the means, thus shadow knights may be lawful evil but that does not mean they have honor because they are more conserned with the ends then the means(or moral code). Anyway, call me a paladin through and through if you will, but I will never acknowledge that shadow knights posess honor

um.. actually SKs do have honor. overall, we strive for the same goals as anyone else, its just that our means of getting there are different.

While thier morals may be in question, the prime asset of a KNIGHT is honor. They are, in fact, knights.

Haven't you ever read anything about Dark Knights? They serve their lord/king/queen/god and will do everything & anything in order to obtain what their leader is after. We Shadow Knights are more proud and loyal and ultimately Honorable than most paladins. Paladins serve only their god, and if they think doing something would be wrong they'll not do it. Goddamned Paladins are what's bringing this place down, no loyalty = no honor.

As sad as it is to say Pally's can now own sk's in duels. Thanks to verant and the no pc fear nerf that they gave us. I havent tried dueling in an arena, mabye you can still fear in there, but I can vouch for no pc fear outside of an arena. I dueled a ranger the other night, and I was never so ashamed in my life. Started with darkness, next cast fear *you cannot cast this spell on other pc players* or something close to that. We still are fun for damage output, but just dont ask anyone to duel.
RE: Stop the madness
# Oct 18 2002 at 10:43 AM Rating: Decent
You are too weak to be called a shadow knight. Yes, we were nerfed. No we are not potent duelers.
It takes skill to duel now, rather than just fearing. You have to move, use shadowstep. I pwned a 49 ranger at 46 last night in the arena. She died when i was at 1680/1750 hp.

obligatory crap
# May 06 2002 at 10:13 PM Rating: Decent
since nobody has mentioned it...
Spirit of Tawro is a spawned mob, has about 100k hp's and doens't hit exceptionaly hard but fast from what i've heard. To get to him you have to go through an ice cave on the left side of zone from ME zone. Kinda windy tunnels inside and about a 5 min repop on the mobs within.

Can probably be done with 1 solid 55-60 group witha 60 MT with def dis up, would be good to have two MT's and switch when dis falls, expect a long fight with one group though, took him down there other night with 2 groups and it took about 7-10mins to take him down. Not all that hard.

To get him to spawn you have to kill a named at the end of the ice tunnel then Tawro will spawn where the named spawns.

G'luck and safe journeys all.

I'm a 57 Paladin and I tanked Tawro and then Spirit of Tawro being the only melee in the group and we took him out no problem. Buffed I had approx 4300hps and 1180ac or so. Just have to get tawro and spirit slowed and you're home free. Long battle for our group. Takes us about 30 minutes to take him out. Hits for 350 max.

#REDACTED, Posted: Apr 15 2002 at 9:25 AM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) shadowknights are quite good, but there are still other classes that are better.
RE: Sks
# May 06 2002 at 10:02 PM Rating: Good
no class is "better". Every class has a use. You want to single pull a static spawn in an exp group? SK's can snare/fd and have someone tag it with incredible ease. You want to kill the named guy in CoM for part of an epic (forget name and which epic) grab a mage's fire pet and let'em have at it. The list goes on and on, every class has a use, every class is needed for some situations. there is no "best" class.

# Feb 24 2002 at 6:02 AM Rating: Default
I will have to agree with the honor thing. SKs and Paladins are just as honorable, its just our means to an end tend to differ as well as our motivations.

And yes, for some reason ive met more "nice" SKs than paladins. Perhaps because SKs do not need to go around boasting about being badasses, we just are.

RE: bah!

All knight classes are generally honorable classes. Pally being Lawful Good and SK being Lawful Evil. Evil can have a purpose and does not always have to be chaotic. Besides, maybe is pure coincidence but I have noticed more honorable SKs out there than pallies. there are some exceptions, however.

Well said Shred. As an Iksar SK I feel great honor and loyalty toward my race and my god. It is my job to strike fear into the souls of all who are neither broodmates nor minions of the Master Cazic. I have no other job than to spread the fear. That is, to pass along the knowledge that we are coming once again, and we will rule you ALL. You will serve us or die.

I rated you post as Excellent Thistl... even though the Pally/ShadowKnight argument is far beyond annoying, you at least roleplayed your character and gave a sense of what "Honor" means to your character.

Take the others who selfishly rated your post down as those who wish to hide what makes the ShadowKnight an honorable class in order to make themselves look better.

should be, "Estoy muy guapo y barbariano" or something to that effect, what yer saying is "Very the handsome barbarian".
You wanna get technical....
# Feb 25 2002 at 4:54 PM Rating: Decent
I think you meant to say "Yo soy un barbarino(lo siento, pero mi diccionario es un pedazo de mierda y no tiene "barbarian") muy guapo". You used the verb estar, which is a verb meaning "to be" but only in the transitive sense, Estoy means i am, but not permanantly, thus indicating you had your pretty make up on today and the rest of the time you are ugly. If you truly wanted to be constructive or funny, why not just say

Tengo el gato los pantalones= I have the cat my pants

Trust me, before you bash someone on their Spanish, get yours down pat first.

But yea, its a difficult language to understand since the syntax is all screwed up and instead of saying el azul cielo, we say el cielo azul to say the blue sky unless we are trying to be poetic, yet i digress and will shut up now.

BTW, cool weapon, gratz to who ever got this beaut.
