THEY TOOK AWAY MY SPARKLIES!! other bards and i have had group cries over this. Why did soe take away the pink sparklies, my bards pants i dyed to match. The pink particles looked great with epic, why oh why oh did they take away the sparkles?
Boy was I surprised when I logged on after patch and went to kite, finding that my drum no longer glows. =( Thats the only reason I kept this drum cuz I liked the graphics on it, now I guess its time to upgrade my drum. LOL
i got this for my bard makes kiting single mobs so much easier because all my current single target dots are precussion so with this drum i can runn really fast and my dots do more damage plus i can weild a weapon in secondary so if i need to kill off some annoying greenies without having to equip weapon and what not, very usefull drum
please reply if you can get me this drum i am willing to trade/sell a bloodguard soul ring for this and a bloodstained flute plz reply or email me at DarkWebSpinner@yahoo.com
WOOT Bought one on Torvonnilous for 5k last night I have been seeing them go for 9k and above. I got lucky. One time I saw one go for 3k but was broke hehe.

Ok, I play on Drinal. I remember when I was about lvl 10 or so with my mage, saw these for about 200k, **** my pants basically *cough* Uhm.. then about 2 months ago it was about 20-30k.. now I see them for 2.5k.. MAJOR PRICE DROP. Btw, price war going on as we speak and only reason I'd say the price dropped is because.. PoV/PoS Raids every day for BoT access, then you as soon as they get the stupid keys, they run and get a grp and try and to take out the mobs to drop this..still one of the coolest drums IMO and worth about 15k
You don't need a key for BoT anymore. That's why they, and everything else that drops in the zone commonly, is so cheap now. Every idiot and their friends can run in and kill what they want. It's why the zone has 100+ people in it at all times just about. :(
Reason why these drums are exspensive on SZ is due to the fact that we are on a PvP server, Not the fact that Bard's are "The Ub3rest PK class ever, but due to the fact that if you are exping/farming/aa'ing in the planes, your going to get trained minimum once an hour.
So think about it, you have you nice exp group going on. Suddenly a SK/monk/bard runs up to your group with a train and FD's (necro's dont train since they have the hp's of a gnat) and suddenly your group's 1 giant has 15 buddies helping him. So that means that on blue servers drums drop every 3-5 hours non stop. On SZ on of the lowest pop. server's, even w/o the constant trains you see them once every 1-2 days, maybe?
This is a bard best droppable weapon. Blue server's means your free to camp items but on the Zek's its a different world and on a Zek you want the best wepons available to you.
Your post is not untrue, but you cannot discount the fact that bards are FAR more common on PvP servers than regular ones, due to their power in that environment. More bards=more demand=higher price.

not sure how long you've been on Sullon but all drums are very expensive there. Basically bards are kings(or queens...or...both) of pvp, the better the drum the better they are, and since drums affect selo's (run speed for the uneducated) dots and resist songs they're one of, if not the most important instruments to own. /me prepares for flames
I get the full bonus, and half of the stats (still great stats at my level). My chant does 30 dmg and Selo's is satisfyingly fast -- I'm going to have to mount a bug-shield on my helm :-)
The 2.8 modifier is not effected by level, I can confirm first hand. The stats are very much lessened, but on my 29 bard the modifier stands. I've tried swapping my old Walrus Skin Drum and my TDoK while running with Selos and the speed difference is VERY noticeable. Once I get to 30 I'll test the dmg with Fulfil's.
I saw them in the bazaar for 4500p the other day and couldn't resist (everyone else had them for 10k+)
