WTG Verant! The nerfing would make sense if this item were usable by classes that didn't have the spell. I would much rather see them impliment a harder quest to get the item than doing this crap to it. Naturally no reason was given for this. I don't but the 'as intended BS'. |

Can't be that hard? Been to Maidens Eye yet? It's a nerf. When the usability or power of an item is reduced, it's a nerf, when something is made more useful or powerful it's been fixed. |

I think I'll try this...
I have a 49 Monk, I'm going to do the quest up until the Dratha portion. When I come to that point, I'm going to try and hand the shield over to the Dratha Smith. Maybe it'll prompt a response, or he'll just hit me.
Time well spent in the name of science and questing. |

On the issue of twinking I beleve it is beneficial and healthy to give a leg up to a starter as long as you dont goto extreem some basic armor, a decent weapon, or even a set of spells.

aero ... i think thats the point, you are supposed to just hold it in the throw slot, verant has never supported truly strong and fast thrown or archery things. .. they are daring you to hit the range button by accident heheh |

Then again, maybe I WOULD throw them, in a duel.
A good ranged weapon with plenty of range might be really useful in a duel, especially when you're a melee type up against a caster and the duel drags on to a half-hour thing like some do. These'd let you keep 'em from medding if they're close en |

Ok I have these and very nice they are too BUT the camp was a awful long time, I spent over 50 hours to get these in 6 sessions of camping with my 51 Enchanter, I had to use my pet as they spawn quicker than i can Nuke/Dot/Med.

Most of the Quest peices for all classes Twilight Armour, seem to drop in the following zones:-

The Coldstones that Mages can summon display 5 (iirc) AC and can be equipped in the ammo slot. However, (at least as of pre-SoL) that AC did not modify your actual stats. Anyone could determine this empirically by dropping a Coldstone in and out of the ammo slot and watching their AC not change.

Not really sure if the stats add when it is in the ammo slot, I am sure tho, that it can be equiped in the range slot, and it DOES add STR when equiped in range slot...

OK, the other night, i bought an IBC for 500pp. I thought it was pretty good, the stats, the speed, and it had a prok. What does the prok do?
Please, the guy who sold it said it would do STR, DEX, STA and a little bit of haste. Is this all true? |

This belt drops off of several named in the zone...so far I have seen it drop off of at least 3 different ones; Sun Revenant Magistrate, Sun Revenant Chancellor, Sun Revenant Smiter.

Personally I like the item; but then, Monk's can't really use bows.
Weight is acceptable; the ac, str, save vs Magic and bit of hps are all nice additions for a Monk.
And anyone who says '10hps' dont' matter has never feigned death with 4hps left. :P |

Check out Underbulk claws. Same zone, same stats, minus the Str, and far more common a drop. Oddly enough, the Underbulk claws sel for around 3pp each and these sell for like 3-5 silvers.

It definitely DOESN'T add STR from the Ammo slot, at least as of yesterday. Still, since the only other thing that goes in my Ammo slot is Fishing Grubs, it's a convenient way to carry yet another looted item. :)

Careful there. 10 mana at level 10 is 10 mana, 9 wisdom at level 10 is 18 mana and goes up considerably. Wisdom is multiplied by level divided by five to equate to mana.

Coterie Mask of the Dead. They simply should not make this retroactive. Most people saying they are ok with this nerf are the ones who did not put up their time and effort doing the quest. I think this was a huge mishap on Verant's part, as I personally know 13 accounts who quit EQ over this act. P |

I am not going to bust a gut to get this item. I was going to do the quest in the hopes of getting gem slot freed up but now there is no point in doing it at all.

I couldn't agree more with the previous poster. Retroactive means they actually penalize the players that took the time and put forth the effort (lost faction, plat, etc) to do this quest. When they realize they made the quest too easy, they RETROACTIVELY make the item useless??? Punishing player |

ummm, NO!
Otherwise you'd end up with at least +100 STR and possibly +200 STR if ya counted the stack you had in your ammo slot.
Now mind you, +200 STR would rock! :) |

I found the 'quest' for the mask to be so amazingly easy. I killed some 4 arm guys in Maidens and got 4 blood, took about 2 days. Went to the quest guy and got the pouch, combine, turn in and got my mask. After using it for about 2 minutes I was positive the mask would be nerfed.
