Scars of Velious
Anonymous
This is a pretty general question, but I got a character named Llonir on the Tholuxe Paells server currently dual wielding 2 yaks. I was wondering if I would have a higher damage output if I dual wielded 2 of these swords coupled with my new Call of Sky spell (adds 35dd + stun proc to your weapons)
Anonymous
At lvl 39 I'm currently dual wielding this sword and a Icetooth's claw(Was dual wielding Yaks), I can hit double 40 easy with this combo and with the Call of Sky proc I think is better then 2 Yaks.(One double hit of 40 dam=80 dam FAST and Dual Wielding two will hit up to 160 dam in 4 hit easy with enough speed to make an other 4 hit to connect over and over...It is better then waiting for the slow proc to happen.)
But if your DEX is high enough to make the Yaks to proc all the time(non-stop)then I guess the Yaks may be better.
Oh & BTW I use the Yak and claw combo sometime, it is fun to see all the double damage and TWO different proc going of at the same time, but my Yak was only hitting about 32 max doubles.
So if you try this out please come back here and post what you think. I would like to hear your opinion.

It says that Velious is required. I haven't bought Velious yet, I just have Kunark. Can I still use this item w/o buying Velious?

Anyone that has EverQuest can use any item in the game (that their class/race/deity allows) regardless of what expansion packs you have installed. What it means by Velious Only is that you can't Loot/Quest that item as it requires a visit to Velious at some point or another.
...nor can you see the upgraded Velious graphics. I'd guess that w/o Velious textures, this looks like a rusty longsword. With Velious enabled, it looks identical to A Servant's Blade from Befallen or one of the lesser Velium Warswords from DN. Gold hilt and a translucent blade, quite nice looking.

Hello All,
I reciently replaced my SSYK with the Crystalized Sword, and am whole-heartedly impressed! While it is a tad slower, my over all damage seems to have improved greatly. If you still have your Yak (espessally if your under 37!) I highly recomend you upgrade to this sword!

i wouldnt upgrade it just trade your off hand SSoY for a Crystallized Sword it does more dmg then a pair of Crystallized Swords for me

I use this sword 11/29 and the icetooth claws 11/29
after 30th I noticed that I did an impressive amount of damage
I have a pair of yaks, (borrowed) I tried them at 37 and during a combat they proc'ed 4 times on average, resisted once usually. The avg damage is around 21 points per hit with yaks, while my 11/29 avg something like 29 or so as high as 41 (at 37th) with an avg of 50 hits on a single mob thats an extra 400 pts of damage, do the math .. 225 .... 400 hmmm..
I am giving back the Yaks!
I also recently got a hold of a kunzarkujich, I fell in love with this weapon I got it for Gauntlets of the black, 700p and chitin shell shield! and I KNOW i got a damn fine deal!!!!
so the icetooths claws are being hung up on da rack.
8/22 -proc engulf darkness
11/29 crystalised sword
excellent combo tilkl i can get to dragon necropolis or pick up something out of old seb that might replace one of them.
The weight is around 6 stone, so I dont need ZING! :)

I have killed the retainer many many times
his loots are
11/29 crystalised sword - rare
18/37 Glowing Velium Axe 2hs +5sta - rare
13/31 Crystalised blade pal/sk - uncommon
Crystal webshield ac15 +20hp +20mana +10cld -Common
the reason for common on webshield is because I have 9 mules across 2 accounts they all carry one now, so I have 10 of these shields, I have 2 blades, 2 axes and 1 crystalsed sword
I also have a crystalised sword on Tholuxe paels and a glowing velium axe, early on the webshield seemed to be rare but I did not atciviely camp him on Tholuxe, as I have on Luclin.

It seems that this sword no longer drops in some servers while in the others its a regular drop. The reason behind this is that in some servers people were getting their hands on this swords for laughable amounts of money (50pp somebody once said), this de estabilizes the server economy, while in others the standard price tag is 500, which prevents lover lvl chars from getting one so easy

What about the Crystallized 2 hander(24 49)? Didn't it drop from the Drachnid Retainer as well? Is it still dropping?
Anonymous
This sword hasnt been dropped anymore? Really? Man I have two of these on my 30 warrior, and I keep getting offers for em. I have to keep telling the people I am not selling my swords!

ssoy doesn't proc till 37 and from what i heard
its not long before it starts getting resisted alot... It goes for 750pp to 1500pp on my server.
I've never seen the c sword up for auction. But, I would expect to pay in the 400 to 800pp range.
As warrior I'd never use this in the main hand but off, it would be pretty nice.

I have just spent a week inside CC and from what i have experianced ad so many others it seems that the sword no longer drops there are only 2 swords that drop in CC now the messanger of the queen PALLY only and the crystallized blade a pally SK weapon only

He's dead right. This sword has not been dropping for almost a month now. I don't blame them for taking it off the loot table, it was kind of ridiculous having these things falling into low level characters hands for 200-300pp because of how common they were. Still an awesome sword, hang onto yours if you have one because in a few months you won't be seeing these around too much.
Only sword retainer drops now is the Crystallized Blade.
As far as price goes I would put this at 800-1000pp. That is the bare minimum. I mean it no longer drops and has a better ratio than a Yak, which still drops and sells for 1000 to 1500pp.

About a month? I got one 2 weeks ago or so, gave it to someone else in the group because its primary only and I wasn't about to give up my Wurmslayer.

A month? I got one a mere twelve hours ago on Torvonnilous. Crystal Caverns is my new favorite happy place. :)

I have a pair of these, I play on Lanys T'Vyl. I get so many tells from people who want to buy them. I payed 600pp for each sword. One time some poor guy offered 300pp for one (even though I told him how much I payed for it, and another offered 1k for both).
People on Lanys T'Vyl, stop asking for my swords!

Same damage to delay ratio but can be used in your off hand, imho this makes it worth more.

But it's 2wt heavier. I want one of each, that way it's only 6wt total instead of 8wt. That and claws look better on a ranger, heh.

If someone is willing to cut me a real good deal on one I would like to buy one very much. It just seems that the asking price is a little high on these. Sure 11/29 is way cool but there are no stat mods and no proc. Still as a Ranger this weapon would serve me well through my 30's and I am willing to pay for it up to 250pp. If someone is willing to help me out I can be found on the Seventh Hammer, or vist my Guilds web site at www.eqwolf.com and post to me on our trading section. Keep in mind I know you could prob sell it for more but I asking for a deal I would even travle to Velious and help get it and pay 100pp just for the assistance.

Considering it's Rarity, the Fact, that the Place where it drops is most times camped due to the Queen, the spiffy look and beeing not lore 500pp doesn't seem to high. At least currently :)

Ranger, Dual wield, double attack. Lev 21. For the price, and considering my level, nothing beats doing so much damage so fast. I intend on getting to lev 35 with this combo, unless someting else pops up.

You want to be 33 or 34 at least. A party full of 25 to 30 level would be frequently toasted in there.
Nice sword, and I plan to keep trying to get one to drop for me. I'd have to disagree about being better than the SSOY, though. If your Yak procs just once every 105 seconds (one and three-quarters MINUTES of combat), it makes up the difference in the damage rating.
I still don't have a yak, either, but I'd wager when I do it will proc more than every two minutes.
Just my two coppers.

Just a note, you are wrong about th party not lasting/being toasted, etc.
I was in a party, around 25-30, with.. I don't remember how many of us, but the only time we died (any of us, in fact) was when someone trained us.
We, of course, did not go all the way in, and just along the tunnels, till we found freq. spawns of reds, and gained quite nicely. :)
Stupid people decided they need to train to lower levels, though, so we moved outside and kited some giants for a while, which was also fun. ;)

The Crystalline Blade was worth 450pp back in it's day, and this weapon is MUCH better...?
I'd have expected this to sell for more in the area of 1000pp. Are these things dropping like snowflakes in Velious? or is it that the players who are able to acquire them have much better stuff, and so are selling them dirt cheap? Anybody know?

I would say it is a little of both. There are a lot of people moving up in levels lately, and this means there have been a lot of treasure hunters. Combine this with what seems to be 2 whole continents of nice goodies (velious and kunark) and you get a glut.
To give an example: Orc Fang Earrings. I picked up 2 for about 200PP. A year ago this item would have probably cost 3 times that. Another example: The PGT. I remember when they sold for a very high 250PP (in my opinion anyway). Now you can scarf one up for about 100PP. Finally: Look at wurnslayers. At the beginning you were looking at 10K. Now maybe 6K or so. Big change.
In conclusion, I think Verant may have went a little overboard with velious and kunark to combat what was a shortage of mid level and high level goodies dropping off of spawns. It is true that these items are still a little hard to get, but not nearly as bad as it used to be when you were paying 1K for ro armor and 3K for a SSOY. Also, with
more grouping and incentives to group, the loot is flowing to lower level characters.
The solution may be to add or modify some items to make them no drop or to reduce the number of items dropped.
Just my opinion.

I find it funny that people complain when "high level" items end up on low level players....yet they are the first to whine when something is instituted to prevent high level players from farming out low level dungeons....

Just got this for my lvl 21 ranger for 200PP! Man, I don't know how I lived without one of these. This combined with a whip of strangulation as a secondary make for a very nasty combo (as the proc goes off a lot).
