Who would choose this over Lorespinner? I wouldn't. Similar stats but Lorespinner has +4 mana per sec. I'd say it's the better of the two.

Did a 5-man Scarlet the other day and both this, and Star of Mystaria dropped. I got both. 5 Righteous Orbs also dropped. 100-150g right there.

Why in h-ll would a mage, lock or priest want this? This is a shammy/pally weapon cause they both use shield and could use this for the stats. Yes I know many mages etc go for dagger/off-hand but why? There isn't a rare 1-hand weapon/off-hand combo in the game that gives more int then for example Trindlehaven staff (also rare). Clothwearers should use staves instead for the stats and druids should get the mace balnazzar drops. And if a rogue even thinks about rolling for this because of the dps, he should be rolled in tar and feathers and shot in public. That's my opinion anyways ;)

This guys an idiot, I am a Lock, and I use different offhand for different reasons. We make two different stones for off hand use to specialize us against different opponents, and i have another off hand that gives +7int some stamina and plus 23 magic damage. I use my spellston when i go into pvp sometimes and always when i know i am going up against a mage, and my firestone is maxed out and gives a good proc against those weak against fire. I would love this dagger and would get mad at anyone trying to tell me not to roll on it.

Well if you are a druid, unless you are grinding/farming lvl 55ish non-elites, or dueling a priest lol you wont be using your dagger very much to melee considering you will be either healing, nuking, or going feral... So omen of clarity isnt that useful... Plus i always thought that no matter how fast a weapon is or how slow, weapons proc the same with stuff like omen of clarity or crusader

However i did just read how its important to warlocks to be able to use off-hand stones so i guess this would be useful for warlocks, and maybe shammies who like to use shields

Er this weapon seems kinda overrated... This is +10 intel, 5 stam and 6 spirit.. Even tho its a 1-hander when are you going to find an offhand that gives enough stats to match or beat something like the twindle staff? The highest intel i can think of is the spellbound tome which gives +17 intel and a little spirit and stamina... not worth it IMO unless you have an epic off-hand like the thing that summons a skelly ;D

Star of Mystaria, Gift of the Elven Magi, 20% dropchance must be a joke. I've killed Balnazzar at least twelve times, not a single Elven magi drop!

Oh, in the first time I was there (well second, in the first time the whole raid crashed) Star of Mystaria dropped. Why on earth didn't I roll on that, no idea. Stupid me, didn't realise it early enough that it was probably better than Horizon Choker for a Shaman. It was disenchanted.

Balnazzar always drops the crappy Plate helm or -10 spirit mail helmet (cant imagine no-one really use that), shoulders (god damn every rogue must already have them since the droprate seems to be 95%). Even Lightforge boots and the 2h mace has dropped twice. But zero GotEM. Hopeless. It's the only thing that makes the instance worth farming for a shaman. Thank god it isnt such a boring experience as UD side or Scholo, otherwise I would be dead. The instance actually is pretty fun, drop rates are just horrible.

(Btw yesterday the epic pattern dropped. Yes, epics drop more often than thing that should be on 20% chance)

Should be changed to Main Hand only so no (stupid) Rogues try to roll on it. It is a terrible Rogue weapon and there are much better weapons we can get for our Off Hand that suit us better, such as Heartseeker/Bonescraper. As far as Horde goes, it should be primarily a Shaman weapon as its DPS and stats suit a Shaman. You NEVER see Priests/Mages/Warlocks melee in parties (not worth the trouble), and in solo they can get better DPS staves considering they do not have the capability of using shields. In a party a Shaman should be using a 1h weapon and a shield, where Gift of the Elven Magi and a Sacred Protector benefits them the most of blue items.

It's easily best in the hands of a Shaman, while other classes can USE the stats, they will not use the DPS. Shaman will.

I have a 60 Druid on Elune. I am mostly balance spec but can heal whenever needed. I use Rod of the Ogre Magi and other various +spell crit gear. When needed to heal, I use Sash of Mercy and for the extra mana I couple this dagger with Spellbound Tome. Its a few int under the Brightwood, but I dont want to spend that much money for the 3 int upgrade. Any caster class can make use of this if its used with an appropriate hand item. Rogues who want this item are asinine.

Druids with Omen Of Clarity on love fast daggers, and this one is clearly a caster weapon.

Farming druids need that kinda fast weapon, since omen of clarity specs more if the weapon is faster, since it's a "chance on hit" (isn't it obvious ? why are there still people questioning that ?).

I saw one drop, got jacked by a 57 priest who's never gonna use it ...

Uh, no. This item usually does go to shamans first. Because they use the entire weapon, DPS, stats and all. They melee all the time. Most shamans melee more than a druid, mage, and priest combined. If you're looking for stats, most good staves have better stats than you'll get out of this and almost any offhand item out there.

It's obvious that you've done just SO many runs with SO many shamans getting this item off of Balnazzar that you're justified in making a (completely false and exaggerated) statement such as this. Just judging from how many people on this page have disagreed with you, it's obvious to see how wrong you are - and how dumb of a comment it was to even suggest that the dagger usually goes to shamans first.

Unless a 1h wpn has spell crit stats on it, as a mage,druid,priest I wouldn't use it there's much better staffs out there. Those classes will not use it in melee. The stats definitely benefit shamans and shamans will use it in melee, period, point blank.

I agree this is a caster weapon fully as the name says it all. If your a rouge looking for a good dagger with high dps ect. Id be looking for something more like a scarelet kris that gives pluss ten to agility and stamina and not something like this which is clearly made for a caster as no rouge needs Intel. Spirit tends to mean nothing to a rogue as well. But stamina is usefull to all classes and the stamina boost on this is not that great to justify a rogue getting it. So to all rogues that think this weapon is for them I have but one thing to say, What is the name of the weapon and if the word magi comes out of your mouth that should tell you who this weapon is made for.
