What's really the purpose of one? From what I've seen, they're horrible >_>

AeroLion · Mar 22, 2006, 03:46 AM // 03:46

It's a joke based on a D&D skit by the Dead Ale Wives. "The Darkness" enemies you fight in Tombs are also based on the same skit.

Pretty much what aero said, the only way you can put it to any use is illusionary weaponry maybe?

Saider maul · Mar 22, 2006, 03:53 AM // 03:53

or assassin midgrade weapons in faction.

Why would you use it with IW? You can't put an enchant mod on it.

Just a collector's item. Nothing special here.

- Has no extra attack speed contrary to popular belief.
- +9 to trolls. I guess it can be used for farming trolls outside of Droks?

Savio · Mar 22, 2006, 04:31 AM // 04:31

Ogres, not trolls.

Tsunami Rain · Mar 22, 2006, 04:59 AM // 04:59

I wish I had one

Haggard · Mar 22, 2006, 08:00 AM // 08:00

well, if ogres come in factions, its a 10-13 0 req sword

Jade · Mar 22, 2006, 08:49 AM // 08:49

Lol, ya, that was gonna be my point. They'll turn around and put ogres in factions and watch everyone start scrambling and paying mad mony to buy one.

Xceran · Mar 22, 2006, 09:23 AM // 09:23

Hehe, that??s exactly what I??m hoping for. I have one but don??t know what to do with it. ?? can??t use it and it??s not worth much. I??ll just hang on to it at the moment...

unienaule · Mar 22, 2006, 09:31 AM // 09:31

This brings up an interesting question. Is the +9 vs. Ogres like additional skill damage, where it ignores armor? I would think so...

heavy metal rules · Mar 22, 2006, 09:47 AM // 09:47

hey wheres, the cheetos, roll to see if i'm getting drunk yet..

Rajamic · Mar 22, 2006, 10:31 AM // 10:31

Then how come you had to cast Magic Missile?

Big_Iron · Mar 22, 2006, 11:16 AM // 11:16

I've gotten a few in Tombs, but I'm hanging on to one. It's just cool.

I did try it out on gargoyles outside of Ascalon and it did work pretty well on them. Of course they were level 3-4 and I was level 20, but....

Joh · Mar 22, 2006, 02:08 PM // 14:08

I just love that reproduction of the skit. The 8-bit one.

Having bought two and thought could have duel wielded them, nope.

Mournblade · Mar 22, 2006, 02:36 PM // 14:36

"Ogres? Man, I've got an ogre-slaying knife. It's got a +9 against ogres."
"You're not there! You're getting drunk!"

I've never laughed so hard. =)
