Will all sk races be able to use it from the get go on P99?

If not, anyone know which expansion it was patched in?

I'm pretty sure it was iksar only until later. Though when later is, i'm just not too sure

I had it on my Dark Elf SK. In fact I was the first one to do it on my server. I don't think it was ever iskar only but I could be wrong.

I tell you one thing. I hope you have a love for Bone chips. it took me 2 weeks to get all the bone chips and turn them in just so I could turn in the book to start the quest.

But no I don't think you need to be an iskar to do it. One more thing. once you do have the faction stay away from the shamy guild. its veary close to the guy you turn into and they will still attack you.

Greenmist was not available during the classic era. The iksar quest lines for all the classes were in, but were not completable past a certain point, and were not made completable till way past classic. If you notice Greenmist has a bane Shissar component, and Shissar only showed up during SoL so it was at least up to SoL if not later before it was implemented.

It was finally finished just prior to Luclin. October or November 2001. It was the first bane weapon available.

Also, if any devs are reading this. Greenmist was designed with a unique graphic, that's somewhere in the graphics file. It was the one intended for its use. However when it finally got fixed another dev ended up finishing it and obviously had no idea about that graphic - they gave it a generic katana look. You should definitely consider putting in the original graphic when it's implemented. It had the iksar star logo on it if I recall

First off, they added bane damage to old weapons such as Gnollslayer.

This weapon does in fact exist. It has yet to be found, but it IS attainable. Through many hours of research in and out of game, the target now lies in the jail of the Temple of Droga(sp?). Argest is presumed to be one of the prisoners there, but unfortunately, nobody has managed to get him to talk as of yet... besides telling you to abandon your search for Greenmist. It's a long hard road, but we WILL solve this puzzle.

compleated this long and annoying quest last night on Tallon Zek (the server alone makes this hard)

I just recall Greenmist being one of the best 1h weapons in the game for a shadowknight. If this came out during the velious era, wouldn't it have been just a mediocre 1h with ntov gear?

Something about the Velious era just seems odd to me. Wasn't the greenmist compared to the sk epic all the time?

I also recall it had shissar bane before anyone knew what a shissar even was in regards to luclin.

If Greenmist was merely broken, there is precedent for placing it in game in the Blued Two-Handed Hammer.

Those old forum posts are both lies or just plain wrong (unless people kept a very big secret). Those aren't the stats for the Greenmist in game - now or ever. In fact I think I recall reading that post about its discovery, and it was just a hoax.

You couldn't finish several of the later khurki's for a while until they patched in fixes, and by the point they were fixed, Chardok was revamped and a bunch of the quest items for greenmist came from the new set of drops

Thats funny. Im looking at the pic I took the day I got greenmist and the stats are. Delay 22 DMG 18 AC 5 Bane DMG shissar 6 Effect Greenmist (combat) STR +5 DEX +5 INT +10 Sv Disease +10 SV Magic +25 SV Poison +5. Seems to me the stats on zam are all the same save the Slot 1, type 4 stuff.

I hade the book before any big changes wher made to Chardok. The greenmist shard, (The only other item from Chardok BTW) droped just before the big patch that I must assume you are talking about.

I had my Greenmist in hand on 9/18/2001 as a Dark elf SK.

Was always usable by all races. Was implemented beginning of kunark, but couldn't be completed for awhile due to some bugs in the Khurkri quests.

im really intrigued that it had its own unique graphic, can anyone get a picture of what its supposed to look like graphic wise?

Pretty sure it was iksar only at first. I also think it was completed before SoL came out, but im not sure about that. However the guy who completed it at first world wide was in my guild on solro, name was Dignitas Gentlesteel :)
