K, so I have won 4 gold tickers, usualy I have a friend who lets me use gauntlets, bp, and the monk staff, then another who has scimi. I have been aiming for the mask. Each time I had those four I get the beads. One night I am tired of waiting for friend with the scimitar so I turn in with just the bp stick and gaunts, of course after 10 " wheel is stuck" messages, boom the lame @$$ scimi pops up, I quit this thing.
I just bought this weapon today on Zeb and it procs a lot for a druid with max. dex. without OoW AA's. It summons a pet that lasts anywhere from 1 second, if I can't get taunt clicked off in time, to 2 or 3 minutes -- if I can. On mobs in Lavastorm it was hitting for max 146. I haven't tried putting lion's str. on it. Anyways, I think it's a cool toy to add to my collection.
the pet lasts until it does a round of damage. i've had it proc at the end of the fight and the pet would continue to follow me around. it's pretty cool running around with a wolf. :)
Won this playing King's Court Casino on Vazaelle today. Cost me about 15kish pp, but had previously spent 100k with another toon on the same account so not sure if it had any factor in awarding me a gold ticket.
EDIT: Sold on Vazaelle /trader for 250k

My trader has aquired and resold two of these on Rodcet in the last month. Probably Casino prizes since I haven't seen any in years. First one I sold for 200k after two weeks. 2nd one I sold for 175k in 1-2 days. Hope that helps with pricing.
hey dont forget about the gnoll slayer. the quest is easy to do and you right click it to summon the lvl 34 shaman pet. it has the same dmg and dly as a wurmy against gnolls. so for all you rangers who are wanting a pet, do this quest its pretty decent.
The Gnoll Slayer only has two charges, it does not proc the Wolf. You use the two charges and then it's just the a regular weapon with Bane against Gnolls. Here is the weapon, link for the quest is on that page too: https://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/item.html?item=10545
Well, with the new epic proc'ing weaps from the planes, the ranger whip is a lot better ratio, stats, and u can summon as many pets as u can until they die (they last 25 seconds i believe) and also i heard that the summoned pets minimum damage is the same as the maximum damage for a pc. so thats a plus. the pet doesnt proc the proc thats on the epic tho (ie ranger epic pet doesnt slow) which is lame but hey, give it up for extra damage on xp groups in PoE
haha,the whip rots all the time for us in Earth,almost every ranger in my guild has one...i'd just chill at ZL lfg and see if anyone /ooc's ones rotting...ohh and BTW...can only have 4 pets at a time,not as many as you can proc...and i believe it hits for 70ish,at least the pally one does,has the graphic of a wolf,and think it last for more than 10 secs...more like 20

That whip is so annoyingly rare, most servers won't see one. It's also not as WOW as the others, since the pets themselves are wolves, they don't wield Earthcaller/Swiftwind as the other Call weapon pets do.. (their respective epics, that is, not Swifty/Earthy specifically)
It's a proc, not a clicky.. and they last 10 seconds..
The damage is about average for pets of that level.. 70-ish max hit.
God, I wished this still dropped. I would take this weapon over what I got...anyday. I realize its got no + Mana or + Wis, but dang, the effect summons a pet that doubles for 96!?! Now, I also know the pet only had like 1 HP, but we are talking 192 damage in one round. Get a Hand of Virtue, and Boon, and you will be all set. Only know of one Druid on my server that has it and they said that it is priceless, so there goes my chance of ever buying it out the window =(

Does still drop but only from the casino saw someone get a golden ticket and even heard the guy behind the window say heres your prize <Scimitar of the mistwalker>..
Imagine a pet that doubled for over 100 in a time where 50 was the max level and people with yaks and rubicite were concidered uber.
Now pretend that NPCs would ALWAYS attack the pet instead of players. The pets only had 1 HP but with enough dex, a bunch of rangers could take anything.
Now imagine dueling someone with this weapon. The weapon procs and the high level pulls the plug on himself going ld. You now have a level 49 pet with 1 hp. Since the highest level was 50, that was massive exp with no risk.
Hehe, this is old school, VERY old school =) That is why it dropped off of Vox. A 10/25 was quite good in the backwhen, for a Ranger, quite good indeed. Keep in mind, there are no Quests or drops from Kunark or above, that means not even any Wurm Slayers. This weapon was not for a druid, and so A druid should not concern themselves with this. I think this was one of the cooler items that dropped in Vox raid, kinda dissapoints me that it no longer drops, but in a way it preserves the value of the Item. BTW - Can a BL really use this, I think who ever said a BL could use this was making something up, cuz BLs don't have any type of slashing abilities.
is this thing still dropped? because I'm trying to work up my 1hslash, but at the same time keep my wisdom in check... oh well, I won't be melee-ing after level 15... might as well just use my blackened mace and put a whomping on skeletons and other newbie stuff... sounds fun? it's boring as ****...
I have heard different things about this scimitar's effect. Is it triggered durring combat, or clicked. Yes, I can see what the info above says, but it isn't always correct.
