[Auchae]

Was holyforge around back then? If so, that's what it's from, and isn't undead only.

Iirc, Holyforge was undead only and was introduced in velious.

[Ektar]

it is very undead only. I believe the coding with the combat fury AA crossed wires with the disc and they didn't give enough shits to fix it so holyforge began +crit/crip chance on all mobs if you have combat fury

[runlvlzero]

Looks awesome. GL on velious pals

[falkun]

Have to level paladin to 55 for this sword, only 19 more to go.

[Shift]

23 more levels for me bah :(

[Ektar]

sorry

elf only

[Nirgon]

Dunno the min level to do the quest. Don't think its 55 tho.

Min level to tank and kill the mobs, that's probably about 55 with planar. But completion? Yeh.

[mtb tripper]

Nirgon you need Stossel

This quest CAN be multiquested. The requirements are everyone who turns in items MUST be level 55+ and not KOS in plane og Growth.

The sword was multiquested by a Human Paladin of Marr name Valandil and a HE Paladin (name I forget) on Bertoxxulous, so I know it can be done as I have seen the sword myself.

[Tasslehofp99]

Yeah, I remember paladins doing some NASTY crippling blows (1-2k per hit) against trakanon in velious.

[Ektar]

they're not special crippling blows... just like 3x damage? isn't that what crippling blow is?

maybe with a primal, proced avatar, a paladin can reach 1k. maybe.


perhaps you're mixing slay undead AA in your mind?

[arsenalpow]

You can't 2h bash with that sword, seems like a waste

This, maybe.

[Raavak]

Iirc, Holyforge was undead only and was introduced in velious.Almost sure. Ask Alanus if you see him online. I swear he was soloing KC basement with Holyforge and Great Spear of the Dawn or something in that era.

As a SK at the time I thought it was totally BS and unbalanced to not have a similar thing and was totally gelly and even enraged at times.

(I feel much better now).

[Arteker]

holyforge allowed u to crit in normal mobs but to land cripss in undead only.


the disc + aas+ would mean a higher chance of proc slay undead for greater damage , didint last much as a paladin could pull a 10k slay in early luclin.


was fixed around same time they nerfed destroyed paladin luclin spell thunder of karana (most everquest breaking spell ever)

nirgon i just see a screenshot of a crip in a undead in a old website , maybe you should do some research because u can see actualy some older pics on old pandemonium website with that paladin doing critics with vulak axe 2,0 in velious.

u dont prove much in the source

[Arteker]

holyforge was changed fixed in 2004 to work better with slay undead , its on patch notes, main reason was the drastic nerf in slay undead that year due to hugue complains of certain war from fennin ro and his lackeys.

[Ektar]

holyforge allowed u to crit in normal mobs but to land cripss in undead only.

fairly sure this is incorrect. but I do not care enough to look it up or to verify in any way


note: I was young and a huge nubcake at the time so my memory COULD be fuzzy.

[Arteker]

ektar dunno if u played a paladin in early luclin , if u did and u got early slay undead.

if u do u should remember the use of the disc helped u to improve the damage of the slay undead, main reason u could see some old pics of 10k slay undeads. original slay turned every critic into a slay soemthing was nerfed . to a random effect.

slay undead was revamped as deemed to pwoerfull , like thunder of karana spell was (maybe most game breaking spell ever for the time it lasted wich was few).


disciplines suffered a big revamp during pop , the addin of tomes and the changes on many of them,

amongs the changes holy forge was turned into a way to help to land more slays in 2004

Update Message - December 15, 2004 :


- Holyforge will now increase your chance to slay undead, and if you have the Slay Undead AA you will have an even greater chance of a slay with Holyforge. *

i dont have sadly a scanner but if i find a way to upload a couple of the old screenshots of me paladin in velious i will show u quite a few of the discipline working in live targets and aswell into players.

infact rigth one i have one with the original vulak axe when it was 41 42 2hander landin a crit agaisnt ventani as half elf paladin
