Vehement Sword of Reivaj  

 

i was lucky enough to be given one of these buy a guildy (many thanks)and have found it to be very good in combat even if i did get it at lvl 37ish and now at 41 still finding it great fun to use but unfortunaly not lucky enough to have it proc for me :(,but with 225str as a troll with all avalible str spells on im hitting for around 130 max on one hit ! least to say you can hit for something in the region of 200hps with double att and thats without slam dam fine weapon and will be better when it proc's

I dont think this would be much help to you guys, but somehow i managed to get the sword for only 50pp .. didn't have to bargain at all. And then i see you guys goin off about selling it for 18k..that just seems outrageous. Oh well.

Yall have all this great info on what it does and where it drops, just one thing. WHEN THE HECK DOES IT PROC ! !

Jus boought this sword off a player trader in bazaar for 1k pp, wonder if it is a good buy. for my 48 sk, the proc raise my str to 165 with syphon str. However, the damage output seems to be maximum of 90 only. BTW, for the stats, i think 1 kpp is a real deal. What say you ??

This sword is very useful when used as the MA or even SA. It can save a lot of healing on the clerics part if it procs often enough.

The problem is, when fighting tough mobs, only one hit will take away the proc, and bye bye str boost.

Also, with a str boost from shammy, I know the rampage doesn't stick. Kinda silly, the damage absorbtion should still work IMHO. For all you SK's, it DOES stack with Siphon Str. Just ask the buffer in group not to str boost you.

The damage is generally good, I've hit in the 130 range with it with str about 190.

Oh yeah, another silly thing, you can still be stunned while immune to damage. :P

All in all I really like this sword and use it quite often. I switch between this, Throneblade of Ykesha, and Abram's Axe of the Stoic, depending on my roll in the group. I only use Abram's when I need the extra resists.

Hope the info helps those that are after this weapon.

I am not sure if I like this wep or not, I'm a DE WAR and its' proc boosts me to 189 str but the damage it does is rarely over 105. Crits don't seem to be coming any more often, and the 80pt damage soaker or whatever it is seems sort of insignificant. My dex is only 84 though so maybe I'll look to trade some of my str gear for equivilent ac dex gear...Definately worth 5k or so on Zeb.

I got one of these for my slightly twinked Dark Elf SK who is currently fighting in Highkeep beating down on the Goblins (Tunare Server). Being a Dark Elf, his strength is a weak 117 with this sword equipped. However he does hit in the high 50s and 60s with his best double attack being 73,72. The delay is a bit long, BUT pair this up with an FBSS and even the level 16 enchanter haste spell....this sucker becomes 27dmg 28dly and he totally beats down anything in his way. Heck, he soloed the Lookout Room at level 22 while waiting for a spot to open in the Guard Room hehe. This sword is awesome at this low level, and can't wait to see how it performs when he gets higher and it procs combined with the FBSS and higher level enchanter haste. =)

The Blizzent Fang Quest will get you a Dragonhide Belt, not this sword

I am a 45 warrior and i recently got this item during a Kael raid. I definately taunt better and do more damge with dual wield using a wurmslayer. The shield effect on this is cool, but if i can't taunt the MOB of a ranger or rogue, then it is worthless.

I ask this: Should I keep this weapon or sell.

Selling it would get me some armor I have been after and raise my AC. And also anyone know a reasonable price for this? I know it says 18k but that seems over the top considering it wasn't that difficult to get and Kael raids are pretty common, at least on MM.
