bear with me here..


I Like all swordsman am excited that the mythical scythe has made it into the game, dont get me wrong.


BUT,,,,,, this is going to be a novelty item. hard to get hold of, near impossible to get a good one, and untill we normal players playing on live servers get to experiment with it, fairly useless sword.


what half-decent swordsman wants a speed 1.9 sword? its fine for a two-hand3cert as TH says it will be, given the effort it seems to take to get the schem and make it should be better...


IT SHOULD.... be a novice [ or preferably master ] swordsman cert, IT SHOULD be about speed 6.0, IT SHOULD be heavy armour peircing, IT SHOULD have ham cost similar to a hammer.


I CHOSE THIS PROFFESION TO BE A SWORDSMAN, i'm a masterand a dont believe in all this holo-racing nonsense. i am not going to change profession. I am still stuck swinging a sodding big hammer.


PLEASE make this a swordsman weapon and NOT a brawler weapon.



PLEASE

The quest giver seems to require you to have a certain level of combat skill before he will speack to you. My Blademaster tried speaking to him with a cleaver equiped (only master brawler) and I got no response, but when I had a gaffi equipped then he would talk to me. I tried this several times while doing the missions, and it always happened.

Ack, thanks Orba. Yeah, that's it.

I guess I kept trying without my sword equipped.

I am a 4003 TKA, you'd think that would be enough. As things stood, the fellow told me that the missions were "beneath" me.

Not sure if any of you play Eclipse, our Weaponsmiths are greedy, and would charge ungodly amounts to make this weapon.






Really, greedy?


Is that why i gave away a couple of NS Energy lances for free after i paid 10m for the schematic ?


Where is the greed in that. Like with all loot weapons i make, supply the items you get it at cost price i.e cost of the resources i use which will probably never be over 15k.


So before you go talking about all of Eclpise weaponsmiths please get a bit more informed, ok?


As for the topic of limited schematics they are great i think. This is what gives loot and the loot collectors the "buzz", if things are common then the appeal goes. Also this isn't stopping thousands on the server bringing you more schematics for you to use.


As for the topic of the the quest not working on TC now. Maybe because spawning a krayt dragon will lead to lots of lazy people attempting the quest just to get the dragon to spawn so they can kill it for loot, as we all know that hunting krayts at times can be tedious, but a krayt on demand is very appealing

I would imagine the dragon would essentially be loot free - like cave spawned creatures that only drop 1 item when harvested instead of the usual resource quantity.

OH YEAH!!! Thank you Thunderheart, Thank you Keldarin, Thank you Gunman!!! Thank you scythe and thank you Swordsmen for generating the situation that has turned around the bane of Pikemen since the beginning of the game! The days of horrendous pikeman accuracy are fast coming to an end!

Sanu, maybe I should clarify myself. When I collected enough Krayt Materials for a Krayt FWG-5, (pre nerf) I went to several weaponsmiths who still wanted to charge me hundreds of thousands to make one -- even though I supplied the resources. So I'm speaking from personal experience.


Now, not all are like this...but a great many people on Eclipse value money, above pure kindness. I've bought from you, and routinely only buy from you and Lotok, because you guys actually make fair deals. (eifora has good ranged weapons too tho on Tat...but I dropped all ranged awhile ago)


But not all MWeaponsmiths are willing to do that, some are, some aren't. The fact that you posted tothese boards (about the Scythe)this shows you are one of them -- and chances are if you'll let me, I'd glady bring a schematic to you and resources to make one.


Limited uses kinda irks me tho...mainly cause we only have three realistic, (two if you count mitigation) weapons to logically choose from. (Cleaver + Power Hammer)


Hopefully the combat pass brings us more weapons...but no one knows when that will be.
