Default I bring bad news to the UW solo warrior farmers...

Today I discovered something horrid in my storage. The item was great and helped all classes with its mods. I went back to try and get another one but alas they had all been changed. Damn you Anet!



The dual -10% damage mods are gone. They were great while they lasted. Actually worked well on a touch ranger too...

lol altrex great way of putting it :P
anywhay in my opinion it's lame to alter items to othher stats when people have already gotten them. (same has been done to the 45/2 stance shield outside camp rankor, existing ones turned into 60/3 hexed) and of course the 20% rocmolder.
way to go anet, you just hit a new record of players and you make it harsh for certain people, you can expect another load of GW quitters soon i guess.

Oh yes i know that you can still do it now. I just thought it sucked that this was removed. I never said it was impossible. And Racthoh I still tip my hat to you for soloing the UW. Even using a W/N instead of the usual W/Mo.

Per tonights update log - this was a mistake and there is a new collector outside rankor to fix or trade the shields.

I think I will check it out...

Because your weapon wasn't dealing the damage. Since it had the 10% increased attack speed, the wand was the optimal weapon.

Truncheon:
Dark damage: 4-7 (req. 3 Death Magic)
Armor +5 (vs. physical attacks)
Received damage -1 (Chance: 10%)

By attacking faster you would build up adren faster...it wasn't used for damage.
