thanx for the lovely display of emotion /clap ... but what u say is true just lookin at the weapon I'm imagining it on my 55 paladin with the stun proc aug from the bloodfields ... sounds like a winner , not much for the dps - but if u want aggro ... sounds like a winning combo to me . Sure there's bound to be much better weaspons to get in the game but for ur ever day meatshield thats respected majorly for his aggro prowess-it's certainly nothing to complain about.
I have this weopon on my lvl 53 sk... it rocks... without using any spells I take argo from everyone and hold it... this weopon is a GREAT weopon. it proc just enough to keep the mob pissed off at you... for those of you who have not used it...stfu.. this weopon rules.. it is better than the sword of bloodswarm.. or the blade of hate... which i have all of them.. I just cast clingling darkness and never cast again.. in about 30 mobs I have never lost agro with this weopon
Or, Maybe SoE just threw in a weapon for twinks at 40th lvl. Since most people can lvl to 40 now in a day or 2. (Many faster) For 1k I would buy this weapon for a twink. NM I thought the rec lvl was 40, it is junk. heh

Posted:Oct 26 2004 at 6:01 AM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) sheesh anyone with a pal/sk can look at this weapon and know the 1 use for it "TRIBUTE" couse noone in there right mind would wield this thing so just chill out god everyone repeating the same bs is anoying
This is Total and complete garbage,heh,if it didnt have rec lvl i could see,but theres pure melee weapons for sale in baz for less than about 3k plat with better ratios than this for christs sake,and by the time your in harbingers (not the most hardcore zone,but still...) you have GOT to have a better weapon than this...all i can say...Tribute fodder...as for great aggro,paladins dont use weapons for aggro anyways,we have spels for that,not to mention i dont think this could hold aggro off a FD'ed monk

Its just you, its 16dmg + 12dmg bonus + a 75dmg proc add to this the low delay of 22 and this is a great agro weapon, remember we are tanks our job is to keep agro so the real damage dealers the nukers can kill the mobs.
And the damage bonus is not added to the base damage of the weapon... nor is it special for this weapon...
This weapon should be opened up to all 1hs'ers... as no respectful Knight would weild this when there are numerous better weapons with better ratios and effects out there than this.

Damage bonus is based on the level of the user, not the weapon.
This is another of those weapons that Sony puts in, under the odd assumption that people will not just go to the Bazaar, and buy a better weapon.
16/22 isn't BAD, but you can buy better for 2k or less in the bazaar. In fact, Glacierbone hammer (20/22) 1hb is 15pp in bazaar right now, and Mace of the Fallen Crusader (21/25) is 35pp. yes, those have recommended levels, but the mace is rec level 53, which means it would probably match this 16/22 sword for dps, even at level 40. Plus there are the Massive dragonclaw shards out there for a couple Kpp, and they are 28/30 with no rec level.
if this was a duel weilders weapon, 16/22 would be in a feasible item... maybe they messed up, considering they're out with 40/28 and 43/30 1hs/b for knights in oow.
