This is a situation where youd think it would be worth a lot but really isn't. The +27 pommel would be worth more, but as is I'd say about 10k.

ya the pommel unfortunatly is worth mroe than the sword. But salvaging the pommel always proves dangerous especially with 2 mods on the sword. I'd say sell for 10-15k if ya can get that much

I see this line of reasoning alot when I'm trying to buy stuff but it doesn't work. Imagine that you have a sword with a +30hp pommel and a fiery hilt on it but its dmg is 11-18. Is it still worth 100k+?

Anyone who would spend more than 10k on a sword likely already has one with a +%dmg mod on it. Thus they would be buying this only for the health upgrade.

Upgrade worth about ~25k x ~40% chance of salvage = 10k.

because no one wants to use a crappy sword just because it has the health mod. They would buy the mod for a better sword.

I'm sure if you shop it around enough you will eventually find a sucker to buy it for 20k, but you asked for a price check and we gave one. Why post if you didnt really want to know?

Well I will just have to keep trying to sell it some place else as there is no chance in hell I will let it go for less than 20k

Ok as far as swords go it has no inherent dmg modifier thus making it undesireable. The only people who would buy this word to use are either a new player who cannot afford 20k OR a player wishing toget the health mod for a better sword. Since the health mod is not a gaurantee maybe 50% chance and the sword also has another mod lowering the chance of getting the health mod in half (to around 25% chance) the sword isn't really worth that much. Sorry to burst your bubble but ya may wanna just keep it for yourself because getting 20k for it willbe tough.

Nobody who's played for a moderate amount of time would want a 2/-1 vampiric sword hilt. The health stealing barely keeps up with it's own degen. Switched a 2/-1 hilt into my farming sword to mess around and I could tell you that even when you're constantly fighting, you'd want that 1 regen more than stealing 2 life per hit. The 3/-1 hilts are nice because they don't just barely keep up with the degen, but add a good amount of life over the fight. A 2/-1 hilt just seems like a waste of the sword's hilt mod.

Of course you can keep one around for hundred blades...but depending on what you're farming, having 3 or more together could be bad for the health.

As for the sword price, I'd have to side with the people who said 10-15k.
