Legendary Weapons!!!!!!

[Loagan]

Chaos Bow, Shadow Death.... so on and so on.


Those of you who are fortunate enough to own these uber weapons, show us some of the screen shots of you hunting with them. Since I'll probably never own one myself and neither will some of the other folks around here. It would be nice to see what we will never have....

Thanks!

[Warriorbird]

I wouldn't really call either of those legendary.

Either is quite attainable.

[Loagan]

=(

[The Ponzzz]

Yeah, the steel katana, short sword, Sorrow, Pure Corsaeine, etc. Those are legendary!

[AMUSED1]

Just browse krakiipedia if you want to see a lot of the "legendary" weapons in action.

[Kitsun]

My favorite crossbow, Fiery. Clips are back from when it didn't suck.

You cock your fireleaf crossbow and a cracked glowbark bolt slides into place.
You fire a cracked glowbark bolt at a greater construct!
AS: +537 vs DS: +262 with AvD: +22 + d100 roll: +80 = +377
... and hit for 58 points of damage!
Surgical strike removes the greater construct's left eye!
The greater construct crashes to the ground and struggles a bit before becoming completely still.
The bolt breaks into tiny fragments.
Roundtime: 3 sec.
Roundtime changed to 1 second.

You cock your fireleaf crossbow and a polished glowbark bolt slides into place.
You fire a polished glowbark bolt at an Ithzir scout!
AS: +538 vs DS: +267 with AvD: +27 + d100 roll: +93 = +391
... and hit for 122 points of damage!
Slash across back of hand, tendons sliced!
The bolt breaks into tiny fragments.
Roundtime: 3 sec.

[pabstblueribbon]

I'd rather have a 10x maul.

In my paladins hands...mmm... arm of akarti lores...

[Warriorbird]

Legendary to me would be a soul killing blade. Not sure those even work in GS4 though.

[Drew]

Legendary to me would be a soul killing blade. Not sure those even work in GS4 though.

It hasn't been swung since 1997.

[Drew]

I have some "legendary" stuff. But it's all just mega crit weighted stuff, it's not really impressive in the way coreasine or steel weaponry is. The only actually "cool" stuff I've ever owned was the stormhammer and one of the cool stone mattocks that cast quake and have petrify flares. They were cool stuff but nothing really compares to crit weighting for me.

[Warriorbird]

Oh.... I'll agree on the pure coraesine and steel meriting legendary status.

While cool... I just don't consider chaos bows and shadow death stuff on that level.

[Kitsun]

They are pretty rare and the name brings up some immediate recognition in the playerbase. Does that cover most of the ground of being a legend?

[Warriorbird]

Legends you typically haven't seen used. You also aren't likely to be able to have pricing debates about troll claw versions.

[waywardgs]

There's stuff in lockers that will never be used again. Sad, really.

[The Ponzzz]

Most the legendary stuff is pre web days. The old auctions (often referred to as god auctions) had some awesome stuff things. The voln weapons, the dwarven warblades, thalior's staff... All legenadry in my book.

[StrayRogue]

Wolf sword?

[Warriorbird]

Should count. Very rarely seen.

[Makkah]

Know what was cool... that Ronan or Voln visor. I forget which one... I think it was Ronan. Sensed undead and stuff.

That and the Onar sheath (which got fucking rape-altered by some idiot)

[The Ponzzz]

Yeah, the visor was Voln. Had the same script as the Voln weapons. Awesome item.

What was the Onar sheath?

[kookiegod]

Onar sheath made 0x swords.

Was the inspiration to some other guy for the bandolier weapons. :)


~Paul

[Makkah]

liquid metal swords >>> gay ass bandolier...

[The Ponzzz]

Oh, I think Ondreian has/had that.

[Asha]

Was gonna say liquid silver multi-weapon >>

[Ardwen]

Kree used his soul sword well after 1997, some idiot attacked him after it accidentally drained spirit from the room at hearthstone in 2003 or 04 I think, have the log of it on one of my old PCs somewhere, Thalior's staff isnt a weapon so doesnt really qualify here. Though that and the Thingul Diamond are likely the two coolest items out there, Jesh's sword is one of the more interesting weapons, along with the aforementioned Sorrow.

[waywardgs]

What did those spirit weapons do exactly? Doesn't enegue still have one?

[Ardwen]

Kree's could suck the spirit from any and all people in a room upon drawing, probably why it didnt get used much

[waywardgs]

ALL spirit, or a set amount? Did it cause death?

[Ardwen]

from what I saw it did 1 per draw, no roundtime to pull it, and from how it was spoken of it clearly could kill though someone like Kree wouldnt likely use it for that.

[waywardgs]

So what was it designed for? Were you just supposed to sheath/unstheath in in combat to kill, or did it have some other attack function in combat?

[Ardwen]

never saw it used in combat, and Kree wasnt someone I spoke with much. weapons that old in the game are often insanely overpowered compared to newer ones.

[waywardgs]

Difference I suppose being that items used to be designed in terms of what *could* be done, not necessarily what *should* be done. Makes for much cooler items, though.

[kookiegod]

Kree used his soul sword well after 1997, some idiot attacked him after it accidentally drained spirit from the room at hearthstone in 2003 or 04 I think, have the log of it on one of my old PCs somewhere, Thalior's staff isnt a weapon so doesnt really qualify here. Though that and the Thingul Diamond are likely the two coolest items out there, Jesh's sword is one of the more interesting weapons, along with the aforementioned Sorrow.

The staff is safely with me and being used.

The diamond is safely in a black hole called a locker. :)

~Paul

[Ardwen]

Speaker isnt a locker he just doesnt play heh, had no real use for the staff when I had it, not having someone that could put much into it. did make a fortune with its help and the imbed spell though while Ciston owned it.

[Ardwen]

Two most fun items, pre-nerfs to them of course, where the painting and the key. Painting was easily the coolest item in the game from a neat fun standpoint.

[Kitsun]

The staff is safely with me and being used.

The diamond is safely in a black hole called a locker. :)

~Paul

I still want that bloody staff.

[StrayRogue]

Speaker isnt a locker he just doesnt play heh, had no real use for the staff when I had it, not having someone that could put much into it. did make a fortune with its help and the imbed spell though while Ciston owned it.

Always liked Speaker. I still owe him for my Spitfire win. Any idea if he's gone for good?

[Ardwen]

Play fantasy sports with him year round, and he never mentions it one way or the other to be honest.

[kookiegod]

While I wouldn't call them legendary per se, the self mana heroism and haste swords are pretty damn amazing.

Also the one I got, 7x falchion, vhcw, self mana ewave.

Also in legendary items, not exactly weapons, but the backpack that picked up your weapon and shield on death, the shell armors, the chaos necklace, all qualify.

~Paul

[StrayRogue]

Bah. I want his damn cloak.

Any idea whatever happened to that necklace Paul?

[kookiegod]

A Speaker auction would be a thing of beauty.

~Paul

[Asha]

I want his friggin bow

[kookiegod]

Any idea whatever happened to that necklace Paul?

Fairly sure its in that black hole called Speaker.

~Paul

[StrayRogue]

I'm suprised. I thought it went demonic ages ago. We're talking about the CoL Necklace right?

[Ardwen]

Pallbearers, yeah a cool item though alot less useful in todays game, fun for plat though

[kookiegod]

I'm suprised. I thought it went demonic ages ago. We're talking about the CoL Necklace right?

Yap, that one, I always loved it...stark raving mad....


~Paul

[WRoss]

What is the COL necklace?

[StrayRogue]

It's a necklace that is only usable by CoL masters. If I recall correctly it grants the CoL powers for free, but can randomly drain spirit at any time and can even contract and choke the user to death.

[Danical]

Unlimited mana doesn't seem like a bad trade off for the occasional death.

[nub]

holy shit, wouldn't that be the most powerful item then..? the COL necklace?

[septus]

I was told the COL necklace cast spirit strike and could be recharged to 40 usage by strangling the wearer. Was only usable by a col master. I heard this back in the mid 90s. Of course there's probably a lot of different stories to the various items out there. Anyone who knows the necklace give a little insight?

I bet people were confusing madness with 117. As you could use madness all the time.

[Gelston]

Drake Falchion

[waywardgs]

No, not drake... Feras. Feras weapons are under-appreciated. I've swung swords that sell for dozens of millions that don't hold a candle to feras. Particularly useful for pvp, incidentally.

[Warriorbird]

Really?

[waywardgs]

Absolutely. What do non-crumbly weapons that flare on every hit go for, 50m+? You can get a lot of feras for 50m. :)

D.

[waywardgs]

Hah, fun stuff. Never seen a rolaren-edged feras weapon before, either.

[Gelston]

I was saying drake because its been around a long time and everyone's had one. Legendary n00b weapon.

[kookiegod]

Pallbearers, yeah a cool item though alot less useful in todays game, fun for plat though

True this...

~Paul

[kookiegod]

Speaker isnt a locker he just doesnt play heh, had no real use for the staff when I had it, not having someone that could put much into it. did make a fortune with its help and the imbed spell though while Ciston owned it.

Yah, I wish it still would do 420, but still, I get a 4 in 1 self mana item out of it as my rogue/empath/etc. can get 507, 508, 905, 913 out of it with my wizard recharging it.

Its one item (along with my coin hand and the scout armor) that is never going to be for sale.

~Paul

[waywardgs]

Pallbearers? What do you mean?

[Donquix]

No, not drake... Feras. Feras weapons are under-appreciated. I've swung swords that sell for dozens of millions that don't hold a candle to feras. Particularly useful for pvp, incidentally.

Indeed. I keep 2 feras tiger-claws on me (3 right now, as i randomly found another one the other day) for just such an emergency.

8-12 attacks that flare every hit in 5 seconds? Yeah. It brings the pain. :)

[kookiegod]

Pallbearers? What do you mean?

Was one of the items I mentioned, basically, it was a backpack that picked up your items (weapon and shield) dropped (when droppage was on), and stowed them, and then Ardwen can correct me I am wrong, been a few years since I looked at it, hauled your body to town.

Very cool.

~Paul

[Inspire]

Yah, I wish it still would do 420, but still, I get a 4 in 1 self mana item out of it as my rogue/empath/etc. can get 507, 508, 905, 913 out of it with my wizard recharging it.

~Paul


What is the scout armor?

[WRoss]

9x superbly crit padded brig (used to be incredible before the changes.)

[waywardgs]

spiked too, right?

[Drew]

What is the scout armor?

There are 2 sets of it, pretty awesome brig.

[Ardwen]

yep pallbearers carried the corpse to the temple, and yeah been literally a decade since I saw it work

[septus]

yep pallbearers carried the corpse to the temple, and yeah been literally a decade since I saw it work

yeah, I've heard rather amusing stories of it picking the first two things in the room up, so it would pick up gas clouds and drop those off at the temple. Did they bring this item out in plat?

[kookiegod]

spiked too, right?

Doug has the other set, but mine is more padded by 5.

You carefully examine the spiked scout armor and determine that the weight is about 9 pounds.

You can tell that the armor is as light as it can get.

And yah, spiked now too...

Crazy.

~Paul


PS - Now need resistances or enhansives :)

[Morlain]

The Demon Blade was a living demon (or something), trapped within a sword.

It essentially had an endless hunger for life force and it was always making sure the owner of the blade knew it.

It basically worked liked this:

Over time, its hunger level would increase. As it increased beyond a certain point, it got pissed off.

When it got pissed off, it would demand that it be fed with various whispering messages to the owner.

When you held it, it would cry out, and everyone in the room with you would be drained of 1 point immediately. This made it fun as rezzing parties.

This might actually repeat if it was still hungry - it just depended on how much life it fed on and how full the meter got.

If it was REALLY pissed, not only would it drain those around you, but it would start pulling 2-3 life off the owner as well, and would do this not just when you took out, but when you swung it, or when you put it away.

It it was REALLY REALLY pissed, it wouldn't let you put it away, and would keep draining you each time you tried, demanding to be fed.

The last unique factor was that if it was on the ground, NOBODY could touch it and anyone who tried would get 2-3 life taken and a nasty message from the sword. So another fun game was to drop it and watch greed do its part.

It had a pretty big enchantment factor (it may have even ranged depending on how hungry it was, I can't quite remember). It definitely got more happy and full as you killed things with it the normal way.

It would also howl and scream a lot, which was always good for setting the mood.

Fun blade - really lucky I got it.

Cheers,

Kree

[kookiegod]

Wow, nice weapon, and great to see you Kree. :)

~Paul

[Drew]

Kree used his soul sword well after 1997, some idiot attacked him after it accidentally drained spirit from the room at hearthstone in 2003 or 04 I think, have the log of it on one of my old PCs somewhere,



I thought we were talking about Enegue's weapon.

[Madcap]

Yeah, the steel katana, short sword, Sorrow, Pure Corsaeine, etc. Those are legendary!

I have a steel katana.. I think the first katana's released were steel katanas.. i forget how I got it.

[Joseph]

I have a steel katana..

Big difference between a steel katana, and the steel katana.

[Madcap]

Big difference between a steel katana, and the steel katana.

I definately don't know the difference.. I just know this one's old as hell and was one of the first katanas.

[RSR]

Don't talk about his steel katana, he'll burn your house down!!!


-Richard.

[Madcap]

Don't talk about his steel katana, he'll burn your house down!!!

Kree!

Nice to see you posting. I played a wizard in Prime on Teras back in 97-98 and remember you showing off that sword. I've begged and begged the GMs in Plat, where I play now, to release one here.

Thanks for posting about it!

The steel weapons, from EG'06, are essentially Bleach-styled zanpaktou weapons. They require either Paladin or Warrior bonding to unlock their abilities, and their enchantment increases with each rank of the bond, as well as giving access to a new ability at each step.

The weapons are sentient, and communicate with the bonded owner, as well as being permanently blessed against the Undead (yes, even the katana with its weighting).

The katana has a set of very ice/cold themed abilities, and is a far more defensive weapon. It can freeeze/slow everything in the room, and transport the owner and their group to a special sanctuary. The short sword is far more offense oriented, and has a maneuver-like attacks that will automatically hit the target at a cost of spirit, and a specialized attack that will hit everything in the room at a cost of even more spirit.

In the spirit of Bleach, each blade also has some powered up forms which can be released once the owner has sufficiently bonded to them.

[Ardwen]

It started that way, I was commenting on other old legendary life sucking demon inhabited evil blades of doom

Sweet weapons, who owns these? Are they bonded to the people, as in, can not be resold?

[Androidpk]

Are there only two of those steel weapons?

[kookiegod]

Are there only two of those steel weapons?

Only 2, unless Naos codes some new ones to the base.

~Paul

[Rolis]

I remember hearing about a sword/blade once.. that was released and its enchant would increase with the wielder without bounds. I heard that it was like a shortsword or broadsword.. some weaker base.. I know that the player that had it quit a long time ago and lockered the item. I never saw the blade so this could just be a rumor and I heard about this during GSIII before the level capping. But still even at level cap that would be +200 to AS.. pretty damn cool. Anyways, anyone able to confirm this weapon or not?

[Androidpk]

Sounds like Jesh's blade.

[septus]

There's also a OHB version of it, I think it was a mace but I'm not 100% on that. It had flares based on level, although I don't recall if it was 2x your level or 2x the creatures level. From what I understand it added it as a bonus to the weapon for the next swing so that you could get it to become a 20x weapon and then stop swinging it and use it for defense.

[StrayRogue]

The mace was the plat version. Plat Jesh owned that too I think.

A friend owns one of the old voln weapons, just saw it in action the other day:


>***** swings a shining white ora chereb at a zombie!
AS: +267 vs DS: +87 with AvD: +24 + d100 roll: +76 = +280
... and hits for 51 points of damage!
Shield arm mangled horribly.
With a burst of intense blue light, her chereb spits a searing white flame at the zombie!
... 45 points of damage!
Right eye evaporates in a burst of flame. Death from shock follows.
You hear a sound like a weeping child as a white glow separates itself from the zombie's body as it rises, disappearing into the heavens.
The zombie shudders slightly then ceases his so called life.


>*****swings a shining white ora chereb at a zombie!
AS: +297 vs DS: +64 with AvD: +24 + d100 roll: +47 = +304
... and hits for 61 points of damage!
Quick, powerful slash to the zombie's left knee!
With a burst of intense blue light, her chereb spits a searing white flame at the zombie!
... 50 points of damage!
Super-heated flame causes a zombie's right eye to explode inward.
You hear a sound like a weeping child as a white glow separates itself from the zombie's body as it rises, disappearing into the heavens.
The zombie shudders slightly then ceases his so called life.



Definitely a very cool weapon.

[Michaelous]

my favorite besides the enegues light sabre, is the one handed clad-weighted waraxe, anyone hear where this went?

Michael Moorcock just called it "Stormbringer" or perhaps "Mournblade" and that was a weapon I always wanted and would have and would still use. That is a character defining weapon to say the least. Stormbringer and that brass lantern Tsin is selling (that I may buy), along with a shadowdeath bracer.... Oh. Yes. I did indeed just jizz.

How could you NOT make a magic using rogue to swing that?
