Too strong for their req/recom level, too weak, just dumb?

TIA for all replies.

is better than the rogue epic and with a lower required level as well. I just don't see anything like that being available to a level 45.

the sad thing is most weapons are better than epic 1.0's that are real

Rate ups!



Damn sillyness filter...

FTFY.

Very funny, but that's hoarfrost (google it), not *****frost...

(I'm not humorless, that was just SO predictable!)

Edit - meh, I was a gimp.

While it's vaguely amusing to hear this coming from someone who has a tinfoil-hatted avatar (no offense intended), you have a very good point. Bah, humsquid.

It is gimpy and sad that people are so sue-happy nowadays, though.

While it is true that most epics have been far surpassed with new content SOE has been very selfish with easily obtainable rogue usable daggers. Consider the VGD is still top notch as far as droppable daggers and is req lvl 60/63 16/20 with no BS bonus, no proc, no AC, and no +elemental modifier. At level 45 your still looking at the 14/23 Gomdurig


Don't get me wrong I would certianly equip your Stiletto but just don't see it fitting in the current ROG piercing weapon itemization.

I dont know why u felt there needed to be weapon additions to eq, but these weapons are ridiculously overpowered for their level. Some of these weps are better dps then GoD raid weapons.

I like to be a SOE hater as much as the next guy but when introducing items there is alot to consider. The weapons you proposed make certain lines of tradeskilling useless like the velium gemmed weapon line. It would render alot of drops completely useless like the copper hammer of striking etc. Also why are rangers raiding GoD zones when they can get these weapons with little or no effort.

Also none of these weapons are no drop which means they would be farmed constantly for the next 6 years. Based on the low req. level the mob that drops them really cant be all that tough and would be soloable to half the server population.

Gear inflation is already bad enough man .. just my 2cp.

Because beasts get so many fire based spells...kinda reminds me of the focus effects on almost all of the best high-end beasts tunics, pyrelian fury.

Are you sure you aren't an SOE dev, already?

Maderik, lol
