Blackstar, Mace of Night currently uses the Runed Morningstar/Poison Wind Censer/Sprinkler of the Spirits graphic.

It should be looking like a mace (Dawnfire, Theurgist Star, etc.) until October 2001, then for 1 week it uses the Sprinkler of Suffering (Baby Rattle) graphic, then it gets switched to the current Runed Morningstar/Poison Wind Censer/Sprinkler of the Spirits graphic for rest of the timeline.

I think it has the same graphic as Sacrifice from Yelinak - FS mace hehe.

Third, there is not cool looking model, it looks like an ordinary mace. You dont normally go attacking crap in NToV, but its fun to use when doing exp or messing around and whatnot. The effect is a PROC that is 100hp group heal.

Anyone else thing Blackstar should have the Velium Maul graphic, rather than the fine steel graphic it currently has?

...

I was just saying this earlier in the week! Velium maul graphic would look awesome

...

I use the Sprinkler of Spirits over my Epic. At least it's got the Runed Morningstar look


Graphic was modified TWICE in October 2001 first to look like the Sprinkler of Suffering off of Nexona, then to the Runed Morningstar/Poison Wind Censer/Sprinkler of of the Spiritsquad-blade looking mace.

The graphic for Blackstar was just a plain morningstar graphic. Now its the wierd tater-masher thingy you see in the picture.

...

I dunno, personally, i think it is interesting and unique. Therefore i like it alot better than the old graphic, since i find unique looking equipment stylish...

...

It's the old sprinkler of suffering graphic, not really unique but more unique than a fine steel morning star look. The fs morning star tinted black would've looked cool as some suggested.



My guildmates are already calling it the rattle. Yay!

...

I just got my Blackstar today! WOOT FOR UBER RATTLE

...
