Hey there!
I'm curious, can you post the full stats? Such as HAM, AP, etc...
I'm just trying to figure out why this would sell for so much... I bought 5 curved swords and got them all sliced for a grand total of 30k. 2 out of 5 are great swords! The other three are pretty decent.
The stats on the best one is
81-165 damage
1.8 speed
Range 10/10/10
HAM of roughly 20/36/25
I won't even go into my vibroblade.
Thanks for the replies guys. I am not a fencer myself, so I have no idea how big a difference the stats make. If the Rantoks are in fact AP 2 that would explain the rediculous prices I've heard them going for. Part of the appeal might also just be a coolness factor- It's very neat looking and since it can't be crafted, there's a uniqueness about it. I've also read that the range makes it desirable. As requested, here are the complete stats from the game:
Rantok- Damage 45-150
Wound Chance 20.00
Ideal Range 4.0
Max Range 4.0
Attack Mods 10/10/10
Speed 3.3
Special move Health/Action/Mind: 27/40/25
Special Description: This forged steel sword was the traditional weapon of the Unfyr Warriors of the Ka'hren.
One thing to keep in mind, they aren't very hard to get. Sure they are NOT craftable, but any Novice Advanced profession with a friend can have one in three hours. So they did sell at crazy prices, but that was mostly before people knew where they came from I think.
*shrug*
I'll get my own eventually, I'm about 4/5 the way through Jabba's Missions.

I've heard recently that the Rantok is AP 2. Anyone know this for certain? AP 2 vs an Unarmored Foe means you are doing 37.5% bonus damage, which makes the Rantok MUCH more appealing assuming a solid speed slice...

But if its AP2.. then this sword has promise.
According to the strategy guide. Rantoks are AP0. All 1 hands are except the vibroblade which is AP1.
Strat Guide is based on beta too if I'm not mistaken.
I can tell you this much, my Rantok easily out-damages my VibroBlade. No comparison. Nada, none. I don't know how to find out for sure, but testing my VB and my Rantok on friends wearing different armors, I would stop just short of swearing on my mom that the Rantok is AP2 now after using one for a day or so.
