Polished Granite Tomahawk  

 

very early in the game this weapon was not lore and you could dualwield it, constantly proccing the rune effect, made it possible to use druids as main healer in group,
tho when we as some rag tag team wearing banded and leather armor sneaking down through lower guk in their early 30ies and then get violated by a bloodthirsty ghoul :) by then its obselete :)
on new progression servers this is a good early weapon to get if they follow the timeline with fixxing items too

I spent the better part of 7 hours in HpH this morning (July 1st,2004). From about 12am EST to 7am EST and the only thing I seen the whole time was the Mob that drops CDS. He spawned right after I had a buddy go kill the Mucktails in EK. This may or may not be coincidence because I had that friend kill those Mucktails in EK more and didnt see any of the Mucktails in HpH after that.

so when you get hit and use up the damage absorb, the buff fades right? for a warrior this would be good for a little while since when it does proc it will count as a free miss (they hit you but you absorb the blow, they lose their hit), and for a little bit it can even absorb a few blows (such as stuff that hits 14s or 18s at lower levels if you twink it). the damage output isnt great but the proc is nice for offhander if you cant find better. im currently using a crystal fiber and this would only be 2dmg lower with same delay, so offhand it owuldnt be too shabby of a weapon.

as for other classes, this is great for rangers as well as lower level paladins and shadow kngihts. its mostly useful for rangers, when it procs it will drop your agi, but who cares it will add that absorb onto you if you do gain accidental argo, which is another plus. but mostly, the free str buff is great.

good twink item, wouldnt use it past 30 though, unless i oculdnt find better. a sword that procs a DoT or lifetap would be better for holding argo, and a better ratio weapon better for classes that dont tank.

WTB one of these on drinal server

to the warrior complaining about the druid only healing half a bub of your hp , druids get more than one heal spell , and depending on area wont have the highest heal spell on spell slot * i normaly bung a low lev heal in slot when in lower lev areas , instead of a 50+ heal spell * , , so maybe the druid had low spell level healing spell memed at the time , :P

My warrior is using this in secondary melee, and it does not stack with all strength spells. It will only overwrite lower level ones. I had strength of earth cast on me by some well-meaning passer-by, and in the next fight the proc would not stick. This applies to the shield portion, as well as the strength. It would go off, I would get the message saying it didn't take, and the mob would continue to hit normally, no magic skin. Might be worthwhile to see which strength spells do stack, and avoid the others. I would much rather have the magic skin invulnerability than higher strength at lvl 13.

...starts at lvl 10. I'm lvl 10, and it procs for me.

If you had a wurmslayer, what would be the ideal secondary slot item; a shield? or a PGT. For a lvl 30 ranger this is.

I was just wondering how hard it hits for. I'm lvl 10 and have 95 str. if that helps. And the spell procs at lvl 10 right?

Does the Berzerker Effect strength boost stack with other STR boosts? Just wondering....

I use the PGT for a secondary weapon. I'm a Rogue and it is very uncommon to see Rogues packin a 1hs weapon, but I LOVE it. The berserker strength is awsome. I have a 1hs of around 5 and Im hittin for 8ish every time. In my primary (yes, i do love piercing) is my beloved, not the greatest, but beloved, walrus tooth. I got the tooth for free as a LVL 3ish because I'm such a nice guy......actually I followed a guy that was givin out stuff free "if you could find him" until he gave out Rogue stuff. The PGT, usually sold on the Rathe for 100pp, was sold to me for 75pp, nice guy, and I plan on using it for a long time.
