Hey what about pre-nerf legacy items?
Are we going to see patch histories on green99 like this do you think? Like balancing changes on the scimitar of the mistwalker for example?
When it first dropped, the MW pet was a real pet... just with a low number of hit points. You could /pet back off before he got killed and hang onto him. Then you could buff him up, etc.
Guilds with a number of rangers/druids were passing around the MW until everyone had a buffed up level 45 dog pet prior to attacking big mobs. Since the MW pet can hit for 100-140 (if I remember right) and has double attack, that is a decent pet army for people who didn't normally have pets to be bringing into a fight.
Then the pet was changed so that he attacks for 1 round and then dies. I think he also has 1 hit point as well, and they restricted HP buffs so that they can't be cast on a target with less than 20 hit points.
Finally, the proc rate was lowered, then raised, then lowered again... It definately doesn't proc very often anymore, at least in druidic hands.
Would reaaaaaaally like to see something get killed with a dog army.
