Hehe, I like the (possibly) hidden joke in the name:

Kepkhet's Refuge.

Kepkhet if pronounced sounds similar to "copycat." So it is now a refuge for those who are really skilled to go out there and not just the "I just fast advanced my monk and bought the stuff and copied the build...point me towards the griffons!" copycats.

Or maybe I am just reaching.

Anyone got a screenshot of how the staff looks.

It's good for protection monks. But for a skin collector like me. All I can is it looks like a wooden version of Brohn's Staff.

Pic as per request:

Funny thing is... last night I made up a rumor about the queen dropping greens just to shut up the whiners.

Turned out to be true. Go figure.

EternalTempest · Mar 03, 2006, 04:49 PM // 16:49

I want that staff !!!

For both my farming and my heal/protect build for normal parties

The collector's smiting staff is less usefull due to no smite score with my heal / protect build.

Sir Skullcrasher · Mar 03, 2006, 04:56 PM // 16:56

I guess different bosses around Tyria will be dropping greens from now on?

sigried · Mar 03, 2006, 05:03 PM // 17:03

can some one tell if that is were the griffon area is not suere if we talkin about the same area if it is tha one we wil ge the biggest farm weapon ever

striderkaaru · Mar 03, 2006, 05:12 PM // 17:12

very nice weapon for a prot monk. i want one for my monk now as an alternative to the ffs + collector prot focus combo that i currently use.

i guess it boils down to whether i want +3 energy or universal 10% spell recharge. ffs still seems to win out, but i'll want one of these just for the unique skin.

Pretty sweet looking staff, may have to do a few runs tonight.

Sir Skullcrasher · Mar 03, 2006, 05:13 PM // 17:13

Going to farm that boss tonight.. whos with me?

Angel Develin · Mar 03, 2006, 05:15 PM // 17:15

Any new Necro staff ? I mean if there is 1 for the monks there should be new greens fo other char to.

Symeon · Mar 03, 2006, 05:21 PM // 17:21

Nice, but I just want to say to everyone that might listen to me and say 'ok', don't buy it now!!!!!111one1. Wait till the price has dropped. I suspect it will probably reach as low in price as it will get in a few days, considering so many people are/will be farming for it. So, either farm for it or buy it later if you want it. It's just like any new nice thing, don't go with the impulse to get it now. Just wait a bit.
