suddering giant slayers hammer of fortitude
blunt dmg: 19-35
damage 14% when health above 50%
health +23
armor penetration +10% chance 6%
damage +20%
Suddering == Sundering. The +20% dmg is from the customization I guess, cause there are no +unconditional dmg weapons without ANY downsides. =)

There ARE unconditional dmg weapons without any downsides. I've seen them myself in the game. They are very rare.
11 Jun 2005 at 00:22 - 169
Weren't they nerfed? I mean - I only know -10 AC while attacking and -5 energy weps (or -1 energy regen).
11 Jun 2005 at 00:30 - 170
If they were nerfed, then I didn't know about it. My mistake.

Check the attachment on my last post...
+10% Damge as a mod
Because it's 10, you know it's not from customization
If you don't believe it(think it's doctored, or whatever else) don't tell me, because I'd rather not hear that again...because it's not doctored, I'm not good enough with graphics programs to do such things...
11 Jun 2005 at 09:35 - 172
Yeah - +10% always, but -10 Armor while attacking, so everything is alright. I didn't say there were NO weapons with an unconditional damage modifier, but they ALWAYS have some downsides - like the foci which give you lots of energy (usually energy regen -1 or sth.)
This extensive list confirms that as well:

Yeah, well for a warrior, -10 armor really isn't more than a flea bite...not much of a downside when each piece of your armor has 80 or 85 defense on it in the end...
11 Jun 2005 at 11:31 - 174
yeah from customization. its probly 1 of the best hammers ive seen..lol

It depends. If you're using a Hammer and are low on armor anyway it might be a big downside. For swords and axes maybe less. But think of it the other way. The -10 Armor is over 10% of your armor total (12-13% to be precise) so that's also the dmg bonus anyone will get while attacking you. 70 armor and 80 armor is a HUGE difference - if you belive it or not. I know that some godly +20% (Always) weps will be useful in some dmg dealing builts but the Warrior's role in a party isn't exactly the damage dealing - it's damage absorbing. =)
If you consider the -5 energy - well - with the warrior's energy pool of 20 it's the same as if you had a -25% DP on ya. This means you'll be using less attack skills and less secondary skills. You COULD compensate with e.g. a Gladiator's Set but that's where the "armor penalty" comes into play.
I don't want to say that such weapons are bad, they ARE very good, but not much better than good weps WITHOUT such a modifier - they are suitable for only a limited number of specialized builds IMHO.
Small update: The dmg penalty you'll be getting while being hit with lower armor:
AL 85 vs 75 -> 12.3% more damage to you
AL 80 vs 70 -> 13.4% more damage to you

I like my bow alot =)
its teh roxors!
I have an ice bow string which should make it an ice bow rather than poision bow, what are your thoughts?
11 Jun 2005 at 19:20 - 177
Depends on your secondary class. If you're e.g. a R/E then I would go for elemental damage all along. Fire is too common and pple are usually well protected against it - Ice seems to work well in PvP (but a little worse in PvE as there aren't many monsters prone to Ice damage - maybe in the Ring of Fire or Kryta - on the other hand I've seen many monsters being prone to Lightning damage - maybe THIS is the way to go?)

Heres my bonestaff, been looking for somemore powerful upgrade components though.
Hope to make it a nice Defensive Bone Staff of Fortitude
12 Jun 2005 at 00:10 - 179
Defensive! Nah! FInd a better hale head - or an insightful one!
12 Jun 2005 at 02:07 - 180
anyone got a pic of a ghost staff?
12 Jun 2005 at 07:55 - 181
Funny, I was using a max damage fiery dragon sword and a fiery gladius when a hydra kindly dropped this longsword. I lagged when it dropped, so it must have been hard for the monster to give it up
Well, I don't see the Browse button to upload a picture... WTH is going on?

Lighning dmg 14-27
+16% while health is above 50%
+4 Armor
By no means is this 'Godly' but it suits me perfectly with lightning reflexes.

Is it even possible to get 16% while above 50%?
18 Jun 2005 at 18:42 - 199
Yes - 20% is max.
18 Jun 2005 at 18:55 - 200
No...15% is max for health above 50%, 20% is max for health below 50%
