blink weapon certificate

[crb]

http://www.krakiipedia.org/wiki/Blink_weapon

being as I predominantly play runestaff pures. I've no need for a blink weapon.

I'd like to do partial trades, but coin will do as well.

Things I want:

1x a day fash'lo'nae gift tome
Self charging or self mana heroism
stupidly highend soft leather armors I might be interested in
really nice highend enhancives (such as the +15 to demonology bracelet, other auction raffle enhancives, etc).
entwined wands
anything that casts cone or a cone variant self charger
1606 tattoo - which was used from EG I know, but maybe one was in this droughtman thing and will be found.
possibly spell knowledge items (1711 for instance or 1606)
song of mirrors gorget

Preference will be given to people who can come up with a trade item. Otherwise, coins it is.

For those who do not know, I can't actually sell the certificate, I have to redeem it. So what you're bidding on is the right to tell me what to make with it, and then of course buy that item. I will require a 50% deposit up front, balance paid upon delivery. If you ask me for a less valuable weapon base that I'd have a hard time selling if you backed out, I may require a 100% upfront deposit.

So, if you win, you can have a blink maul, or a blink handaxe, or a blink lance, or a blink fist-scythe, or katar, or whatever. Probably not claidhmore or katana but I've asked bout those.

last one apparently sold for 140 or 150m and that one you couldn't pick the base so...

mb 100m

SOLD on BO

[Fallen]

Congrats again on the pull. Softens the blow of that dead cat just a bit!

[crb]

But just think... now I can answer that age old question "Does a dead cat bounce?"

[Ryvicke]

The fact that you won anything valuable in droughtsmans after so painfully bitching about it for weeks proves there is no god.

[BriarFox]

I'm tempted to bid on this certificate, but I think I'll wait until I see what I get out of Draughtsman's myself. I'd give it a few, if I were you.

[Archigeek]

Like a dual pain/disintegrate wand?

[Windpanguss]

Not to sound foolish but I just got back after a 3yr break what does the certifcate exactly intitle to you? thanks

[Jarvan]

On a side note.. one thing that link does not explain is that the spell cast is exactly as if you cast the spell, taking skills, bonuses, and LORES into account.

Which if they do another lore update, could be big.

Also.. I am not 100% certain.. but I believe the battle axe sold for around 150 mill.

Just saying.

[crb]

Like a dual pain/disintegrate wand?

I would accept that as part of a bid yes.

[crb]

The fact that you won anything valuable in droughtsmans after so painfully bitching about it for weeks proves there is no god.

Or that I am he?

I never bitched about the prizes, and in fact posted more than one that I thought it was a good deal for $30.

I complained about the combat, (which, by the way, they found to be problematic and changed).

[Archigeek]

I would accept that as part of a bid yes.

Unfortunately, I have no use for a blink weapon. We'd need the right third party, unless you think you have something else I'd want.

[droit]

I'm certainly interested in working out some sort of deal.

[Drew]

LOL, you do this right as I'm putting together comprehensive logs to sell mine.

[crb]

what base is yours?

[Androidpk]

Battle-axe.

[Jayvn]

that would make for a sexy sexy immolate/warmage

[Archigeek]

And to whomever left this neg rep: "fuck off"

The breadth of your vocabulary astounds me. Cry baby.

[Sheikh]

that would make for a sexy sexy immolate/warmage

Yea, and Drew or someone can verify this, but i believe the higher level of the spell, the less often it flares.

So putting a low level bolt spell in there I think would be more effective if you have 2x spell aim and some MOC for splash.

[crb]

Or just sleep even. Assuming you're a hasted warmage, a sleeping target becomes splat, and it should flare all the time. Someone said almost every swing with level 1 spells

[Nordred]

Definately am interested in this, something about creating a blink short sword to go with twc.

[BriarFox]

Definately am interested in this, something about creating a blink short sword to go with twc.

I'd probably do a longsword, but a fast, light weapon is a very good idea.

[Jarvan]

Personally, I think a non-thw is best for this sort of weapon. As you want the weapon to flare.

Another good spell for casters is any type of mana drain spell. If the weapon allowed bard spells, I would be all over this. Really rather pissed they excluded bard spells from the weapon.

[crb]

Definately am interested in this, something about creating a blink short sword to go with twc.

rather a short sword than a main gauche if you were doing twc?

[crb]

current high offer is $700.

I will do cash equivalents at 7 per, but prefer coins/items.

[Drakefang]

If the weapon allowed bard spells, I would be all over this. Really rather pissed they excluded bard spells from the weapon.

Are you fucking serious?!! Son of a bitch. I hope I win it just so I can sell it while flicking off a GM or two in game.

[crb]

could always use 409/415 as a bard, and with the elore review (rofl) it might even hit more than one target. Probably not ideal, not as nice as 1002 or whatever.

[crb]

have a bid of 100m coins to Xorai, putting that ahead of the $700 as I prefer coins.

[Drakefang]

I'd use 1005, 1008 and 1013 flares most likely. 1030 would be nice, if they were not AoE version. Alas, we'll never find out.

[Jace Solo]

Does this prove bard spells are OP without the constant mana upkeep? Or even in general?

[Jarvan]

Nope.

.

[Ardwen]

So very tempted to buy this for my ranger, but he hunts less then Ardwen and has ay too much expensive shit as it is, hope the winner enjoys their new toy.

[droit]

Nevermind.

[Mumblz]

would be interesting to see it with some of the sorcerer spells as flare; evil eye, torment, or even limb disrupt!

[Jarvan]

evil eye isn't an attack spell is it?

I did test it with DC, and it worked... way back when.

[Fallen]

Or you could just..cast the spell and skip the whole swinging thing. Swinging sorcerers are dumb.

[Mumblz]

just cast the spell? isn't the whole point of the weapon to use your bestest attack spell hasted at 1 sec per swing with something like a short sword so as to save all your manas?

[m444w]

Sorcs can't self-haste, so it would be a pain to keep up...

[Mumblz]

foo-iey on you-iey

[Sheikh]

If you have a brawling weapon and did voln fu, would that activate the blink flares?

[Drew]

No

[m444w]

No reason you shouldn't be able to have a claid/katana base without the weighting. I doubt they will allow naginata though.

[droit]

I've decided I don't have a real use for blink weapons. Bid withdrawn.

[crb]

:p

So we're back to 100m then.

[crb]

And the third person changed their mind now, so from 3 bids to 0. Back to mb 100m. That is rather annoying.

[Drakefang]

It would seem like it. Do you think the recent post that Emeredan made regarding needing to get weapon bases approved had anything to do with it?

[crb]

No, I don't think so. I don't think anyone expected to be allowed a katana or a claidhmore.

Besides, if what you want can't be done, you can have a refund.

[Drakefang]

Are those the only two limitations? When I read Em's post the impression I got is that they are going to limit the bases on these beyond just katana or claidh. What I mean is, they don't want 4 blink short swords or mauls all in the game at once. So, it's more a first come first serve of weapon choices. Just what I got from the post.

[m444w]

Someone mind quoting this Emeradan post?

If they aren't letting katanas or claids without weighting, when they have done so under many of these systems before, that's a joke...

Of course if anything is consistent with GS, it is inconsistency.

[Fallen]

The blink certificate will mimic the previously released items as far as enchant and metal (5x and mithglin). Beyond that, the weapon base will be cleared by the Dev SGM (currently SGM Mestys) before creation, and then (most likely) will include a custom description. It's always a good idea to have an alternate weapon base just in case the first (or second, or third, or whatever) is declined.

Notice that I didn't mention how many may be floating around. I'm not really sure why.

Can't rep you, but I would for keeping so on top of everything official.

[kookiegod]

The more of these found, the lesser the value.

Cauldrons, splitting weapons, Nalea gowns, forehead gems, all been taking a hit as the supply becomes greater. Simple economics.

I wish I had a reason to have one but the reason I been selling things is to focus on two highly geared up characters, and getting a blink weapon means going back to 3. Heh.

Heck, I'm gonna be stripping my alts soon as far as containers and crap so i don't keep using them except for spells and healing.

Blink bow plz

That very well may be the case. If the first couple go maul, the last couple won't be able to. Best to get in first.

I think he said he didn't want to say how many were left because he didn't want to manipulate sale prices. He probably knew what was being fished for.

[AnticorRifling]

Dumb question but didn't their used to be bandoliers that made thrown weapons that emulated the first weapon you dropped in them? Could you do that with a blink weapon (I'm thinking handaxe or spear)?

[waywardgs]

don't think there are bandos like that, but there were a couple quivers that duped whatever arrow you put in it.

But yeah, a blink quiver would make more sense. Blink quiver plz.

Ahh ok I thought I remembed someone back in the day having a bandolier or some such for hurled weapons based upon the primary item dropped in. It would make copies that poofed after used. I wanted to say one was used by Boomsplat but chances are I'm crazy/retarded as it's been several years.

You got to choose the weapon base to put in the bandolier but you weren't able to put a scripted weapon in a bandolier as the crumbliness is already a script.

-Richard.

[AnticorRifling]

Gotcha.

[kookiegod]

Personally,

I doubt the blink weapons were designed with archery or hurling bases in mind.

~Paul

[waywardgs]

>rub bando

You pull an ebon throwing axe gracefully from your bandolier.

>drop axe

As you drop the throwing axe, it dissolves into vapor.

Gens infinite weapons, but only that base. Can't put anything into it.

[AnticorRifling]

You're probably right, my idea is out the window since I was mistaken about the bandoliers.

[kookiegod]

Yah, i designed the bandoliers and played extensively with hurled and archery stuff, FIRE and HURL do different stuff than ATTACK/KILL.

Bandoliers still rock, I used Neimanz's Onar sheath as the idea for em.

~Paul

[droit]

My withdrawal had nothing to do with weapon base or supply and demand. It was simply the realization that a blink melee weapon would make me a less efficient hunter than I am now at the cost of most of my liquid assets. Sorry for the inconvenience.

[Asha]

Speaking of Boomsplat, I wonder how he is now.

[Drew]

Maybe I'm just dumb, but didn't he die?

[Archigeek]

I think the criteria you're going to end up with are going to be the usual criteria: the weapon isn't going to be allowed to double up on properties that they aren't normally allowed to double up on. It's a simple matter of mechanics: your blink weapon isn't going to also be heavily crit weighted, and you aren't going to be able to do something else to it that would take up the script spot either, (no blink weapon on a string, boohoo).

These are still awesome weapons though. I think some people are asking for insane when crazy will do just fine, and for the right character classes, blink weapons are crazy-effective.

[Asha]

Last I heard he was just really ill. :(

Agreed. If I was still playing I'd kill for a blink weapon on the warmage and I don't think the price CRB is asking is out of the question. Especially if it meant I could get the weapon base I wanted.

[crb]

So... what do you need to start playing again?

The two other people who retracted said that might rebid. I'm not going to drop the price, if no one ends up buying it I'll just make a maul or a fist-scythe and sell that eventually. Yes, a fist-scythe. Monks! OMG RSN!

But I'm sure someone will step up and buy it. The amount of messages I got after winning it was truly outstanding.

[Jarvan]

It was an awesome win, ad if they fixed it so bards could use the darn things, I would even jump on it.

[Asha]

Can I just ask, did you pay the same price as everyone else, like the people who won total shit?

[crb]

Yup, and in fact I won shit too. I did two characters when I got the cert. One got the cert, the other got a dead cat.

Of course, the average value is pretty high. I got lucky, even with the dead cat.

[crb]

100m to Drew.

Speaking of which, how does one get a string? Last event that had them was....CCF? Can you even buy one with PP? I've wanted one and no doubt many others do, but it always seems like the same people have held one or another. I know the rarity is high, but how high?

Two.

Only one is left.

edit: And it wasn't CCF, it was EG 09

[RSR]

2 were released at the Ebon Gate auction 2009. Once attached to an appropriate weapon base...dagger, handaxe, warhammer or quoit...they are permanently attached to that weapon.

-Richard.

[Drakefang]

Yes, of course. However the script that is "the string" has been used before and since, correct? There certainly is more than a single returner out there. Kerl had an 8x one, now has a 10x for example. So, that wasn't a script that could be added at CCF? Okay, at least I know what I know now. No way in hell will I afford a string unless they release more via raffle or something.

[Androidpk]

Who has the other one besides Kerl? And why was it never attached to anything?

[ThatDamnTep]

Who has the other one besides Kerl? And why was it never attached to anything?

I did, and I didn't have an appropriate weapon to attach it to at the time. Months passed, I still hadn't done anything with it, so I ended up trading it to Kerl.

No. The ethereal strings are something a bit more than your average returner script. The string makes the weapon a returner and gives it AS boosting abilities. There are a number of returners out there--some for fairly reasonable prices--but there are only 2 strings, one of which Kerl has used and the other of which is in Kerl's possession, waiting for a worthy weapon.

[Drakefang]

You are a wealth of information. Thanks.

[kookiegod]

Yah, and I decided to go the hammer route with what I had, i guess I could have worked with someone to get a perfect hammer, but I had one I liked.

I got 2 10x hammer returners, one permablessed, one acid flaring, so not lacking at all, guess I could have got one strung and worked it up, and heck, I guess I still could...

Kerl....

Heh.

~paul

[crb]

true story... I almost had that string. During Paul's second auction do-over I was spun first, BUT I had already redeemed my far less valuable AsG change certificate won in the token room. So was forced to decline the trade. Fuck I swore over that one.

Well I guess that cat's out of the bag. Hopefully a worthy weapon will drop at the Draughtsman event or at the Spitfire. In the meantime, the string that I'm using is working juuust fine.

rogue wielding blink weapon;
1_ best weapon?
2_ best spells from 400 100?
3_ if you don't know it, can spell be invoked from scroll within circle? (invoke web)

[crb]

in the elore review 409 and 415 are going to get pretty sexy if you've got 20 ranks of fire lore. bit of a stretch, but a rogue could do it post cap.

Your options from the 100s would be 111 (which would also splash and hit others in the room if I understand it right), 110, or 118.

Would the rogue wouldn't be able to ward a like level creature?

[rolfard]

Looking at the weblink on post one (to krakii on blink), it appears as no warding is made, now does this mean web can work two ways (if you have the lore)? it also shows ewave being accepted, hasted rogue with ewaving short sword and multistrike?

[Danical]

Do you mean no warding made on the Spike? Are we looking at the same weblink?

[rolfard]

hmm, good point, there are no wardings on that spell...anyone chime in on AS CS spells with this weapon?

[BriarFox]

hmm, good point, there are no wardings on that spell...anyone chime in on AS CS spells with this weapon?

It uses your own CS. What's to explain?

[rolfard]

last question, there are quivers that duplicate whatever arrow you put in (only for use by the one wearing the quiver).

blink arrow using duping quiver?

[WRoss]

The weapon casts the spell exactly as you would cast it. That means you CS, your lores, your whatever the spell would take from you. The only difference is that you don't use your mana. The lower level the spell, the more likely it is to flare.

[BriarFox]

last question, there are quivers that duplicate whatever arrow you put in (only for use by the one wearing the quiver).

blink arrow using duping quiver?

1) That quiver is MIA as far as the market is concerned.
2) The scripts would conflict anyway, and make it impossible.

[Mumblz]

seems best in the case of a rogue is either 119/417 hasted twc (while blessed), would be fairly nasty and i'd almost consider giving up my 35 lb 10x heavy damage padded scripted spiked altered full plate...almost....maybe for if i had both spells and both weapons (2 scimitar combination)

[WRoss]

117 would be cast at the critter, the clear choice for a rogue is 410

[crb]

I think he meant 119 and 417.

Dual dispel if you manage to get both flares on the same critter.

[Mumblz]

edited, and i would bid the 200 mil it would take for both now that i think of it, sponsors speak up now

id get a battle axe and use it in left hand inplace of my HCW falchion and keep my MCW bonded Falchion in right hand

[Hoodtralfeck]

so there are only two in the whole game and Kerl has both? thats some luck there , what GM is he screwing . ;)

Hopefully more will be released. Share the wealth and all that. Is the GM that made them still on staff?

Sounds like the only thing he wants for the second string is something to attach it to... catch 22!

Heh, I don't either, i'd have to get someone to make me a perfect hammer....

Enchant it to 7x myself

Buy enough prem points to get it to 10x

Add flares...

Do I really want to spend a year for +6% DF and the string bonus when i got a 10x hammer already is the question. I think I done with my project pieces for awhile, hopefully the string gets used well, but there are only a few things worth putting it on unless you go the route i just said, and the money your putting into it, makes it worth less than you paid for it.

501 for a wizard makes damn good sense

501 maul anyone?

also for ranger, if you're capped, would 607 be a good idea?

or 906?

honestly if you had a wizard slave that gave haste before the hunt, you could do a 702 maul.

[waywardgs]

The coolest thing about these weapons is that the flare can be switched, so people can experiment with all kinds of options. It'll be fun to watch what people come up with in the coming months.

Agreed. Base is FAR more an important choice than spell use. Unless you're absolutely sure you would never consider selling the weapon, this should be your primary consideration when purchasing a certificate. You can't go wrong with a Short Sword, Lance, or a Maul.

[kookiegod]

Drew is thinking handaxe and dagger TWC...

I'd still suggest shortsword over dagger, but for a OHE combo, it will be one of the sickest things ever.

[Sheikh]

I could be mistaken, but I believe Kerl's current strung weapon is a perfectly forged 10x HCW handaxe, so I would imagine a permablessed weapon is what he would want to get to put the other string on. Considering he also has the best shield in the game (something along the lines of a... 10x +10 TD with self knowledge 1609 towershield) I doubt he plans on doing THC hurling.

It would seem like being able to hunt both normal and undead is the route he would want to go... finding a nice permabless or blessable weapon would complete his incredible set.

[droit]

No, the stringed axe is permablessed, not HCW. A 10x perfect permablessed returning AS-boosting handaxe, i.e. the best hurling weapon in the game.

I do not have a 10x +10 TD shield, though I do have a nice warding shield of comparable value to what you describe. I think you're thinking of Lucos, though I suspect his isn't a greatshield, but it is 10x and +10. And let me know if you see a 10x hcw handaxe please? (the one I have is more like what you're describing as what I would want: 10x, perfect and permablessed). I would pay handsomely for a 10x hcw handaxe, or something close to that. Thanks.

And now back to your blinky weapon goodness...

[kookiegod]

Lucos's is a buckler, but other than that, yah , best shield in the game.

I should charge rent in this thread for off topic discussions...

[waywardgs]

You should pay us for free bumps.

[Sheikh]

Lucos' shield is 8x with +10 TD which is damn nice but....

Kerl's is better

[neimanz1]

Pretty sure there is a 10x/6xtd shield staff

Ravaashek's towershield is better, IMO.

Double natures fury flares..mmm. That would be fun to see.

I'll be posting logs, but nature's fury isn't PC safe so it'll mostly be double spike thorn. But I'll make sure I get some double 635 flares late at night sometime and post.

pish posh, double fury all the time.

[crb]

double 635 while mstriking in an invasion full of people.

[Ardwen]

there is indeed a 10x/6x shield staff, owner would have to identify themselves.

Haven't seen said owner, or perhaps the previous one, in a long while now.

[m444w]

Indeed. If it's the person I'm thinking of they took a lot of very nice stuff to the ether with them. :(

[Senglent]

First off I have no idea who had or has that.

But you will be surprised at how often someone will toss gear off or sell it to someone they know before they go away without telling anyone but the person they sell/give it to.

I can say I've gotten a few nice pieces that way. All bought but still kinda nice to get first dibs on occasion.

[Danical]

No. I would not.

[Ardwen]

If I had to estimate, I'd guess two thirds of all the great items are floating in the ether, add in the black holes, and yes I do include myself in that, I'd up that to three quarters.

[Senglent]

he he just saying is all as a lot think that way.

I'm still in debate on selling out or just dumbing xxx million worth of crap on a couple friends if I ever actually stop playing.

[Fallen]

That's why it is important that if you see something you want, buy it the moment it comes on sale else it may be gone forever, in one way or another.

[Ardwen]

Too true that, more then once had something I wanted wander away to never return, still some people that just wont part with anything even when they leave. I have no idea how I'll react should the time come when I leave, probably depends alot on why I leave I guess.

[Senglent]

Ehh just me I'd want to make something back or leave a friend speechless. Then agian I might do both, or be that pissed about something I take it all with me.

Who knows, I've been here since GEnie days and plan on being here for a good bit still.

[Fallen]

I'd definitely sell my nice items. I would want others to enjoy them as much as I did, and while i'm not poor, I am also not stupid enough to walk away from 6kish dollars. That's one hell of a nice start for whatever my new hobby turns out to be.

Selling my character? Pass. Not like Post-capped sorcerers are worth anything anyway.

6k will buy a nice set of golf clubs!

[Senglent]

I'd sell the gear... I think (undecided see above opinion). But I'd never sell the characters, I just don't see a point to that. I've bought characters but that's for the PP's on the account.

If you really want it's not all that hard to cap, or take very long to do. One year tops from start to finish. I've just never had the desire, it's more about goofing off and having fun then a giant grind.

[Ardwen]

easy to cap? I missed that day in school apparently. Million or more experience til I cap. If I ever do cap at all.

Hunting in GS isn't hard unless your build is dumb. Granted, warriors have it "harder" than anyone else, good build or no.

[Ardwen]

Therein lies the problem, this whole concept of hunting. Why next they'll ask me to take up donating to the poor!

[Asha]

It's not seriously hard to cap it just takes years in prime.
