This is unbuffed, aug str 5 realm ability, screwin around in barrows before the servers went down:

[15:59:20] The decaying tomb raider begins moving more slowly!
[15:59:20] The decaying tomb raider attacks you and misses!
[15:59:22] You prepare to perform a Two Moons!
[15:59:23] You feel invigorated!
[15:59:24] You perform your Two Moons perfectly. (+155)

Decided to move to a more battle-focused spec for Sod:
44 Staff
47 Enhance
12 Parry
7 Rejuv
Was originally thinking 50 Staff and 38 Enhance, but quickly changed my mind when I realized that every point in Staff was only raising my weapskill by 1, while every point of Dex was raising it by 3.
1385 Weapskill at 312 Dex now (Aug Dex 3), haven't had a chance to hit anything yet.
How is it that friars can hit for 500+ with such crappy weaponskill? Do you get the 125% damage bonus for 2 handed weapons?
Sod, I saw a pretty similar thing on Axe. Each point of 2h skill raised my weaponskill 6 points, linearly from 1 to 50. (I need to see what happens if I put skill adds on that, right now I am still in my gimp armor which has shield and slash and stuff on it).
Each point of strength was ___ -- I don't remember, will have to fill that in later.
Friars don't usually hit for 500+ anymore, not that I've seen. Last night I hit a yellow-con Chanter for something like 386 (-69) with a Boon. That's about as high as I expect to see these days. I'll have to go harass some decaying tomb raiders to compare with Axe.
No fair, I'm unbuffed in substandard armor. I can do better!
nice axe.. im thinking ill go for that Fotm spec as well now that we have a full respec.. i got my sun belt today and ill be levelin it over the next while.. know how much a ledgendary 2 hander costs? I need one for the meantime
I can give you one of mine, I got 3 more to make now whenever LB is around. Gotta find out what the components are now because the patchnotes said they changed.
Hmm sounds good.. would you need anything form me weapons/money?
hmm im not sure about the slambot spec axe.. i think i would prefer to have higher chants and parry.. it would be more definsive in the long run holding the 2 hander and would remove the pain of swicthing back and forth.
Yeah I hear you. I tested the 50 2h, 48 chant spec too, that totally rocked. The one I got is sort of situational, it lets you slam people who MOC/stand and deliver. The 2h spec lets you snare/stun from behind anyways which is where most of your battles are going to take place.
cool.. so i think ill take this one up instead.. ill respec tomorrow morning. when do you think i could borrow a 2 hander off you?
I can give you one tonight if you're on. I'll try to leave it somewhere in housing.
k can you leave it in one of the guild vaults?? Ill pick it up then go farm for my other scroll for my belt so that i can summon then..
when you summon sun weapons do you get all 3 damage types 2h?
No you don't get all three, because it's elemental damage. That's why you don't have to double spec.
The one you do get looks like the crush 2-hander and it's 5.5 speed if I remember right.
ohh duh.. yeah that would be right ;)
I left you a matter hammer in the right hand vault. Better get it before Dargoh puts it on his level 4 fighter alt.
Got my belt of sun to 10 last night in necropolis, it is indeed a 2h hammer with 5.5 speed.
"Better get it before Dargoh puts it on his level 4 fighter alt."
Haha!
Anybody pick up the 98% qual Gale 2-hander in Housing? I spent 20 minutes trying to run Soq from Vengeanceville to the house that was selling it, and I gave up after hitting too many zone walls.
If you go to the market centers, the horses there run to the other market centers. Just make a little chart of which horse stall vendors live in which markets and it's easy to get from town to town. Otherwise it's impossible to get to those other houses.
you can also use that mapalot thing on the herald; it tells you which horse routes to take
"Better get it before Dargoh puts it on his level 4 fighter alt."
Hey first of all all my newbs are /lvl20.
2nd of all i would never take a weapon that is not 100%quality, i leave those for Kirin :)

Just use the market return tokens. You hand them to any consignment merchant and it ports you to the market you bought it from... Buy a couple from my house (99) and experiment with them. It's a whole lot faster than running or getting horse rides.
