How is this melee weapon so cheap?

[Gustoo]

It's basically the best low level item in the entire game, and one of my favorite things about velious is using that axe and a wrapped entropy serpent spine and a bio orb in low level pvp.

Things generally should be cheaper on Blue than Green. I am PMing you, I don't mind helping with things. Hit me up any time.

I’ll check when I get home tonight, volunteering right now.

I’ll probably start it at 49, when I need to leave to get new spells anyway.

I probably need to buy jade reaver and Swirling Sphere of Color too. What does the sphere usually cost?

[Andyman1022]

Spheres are a dime a dozen, tons rot on posky raids. I would say 1-2k max. Jade reaver is pretty steady at 4-5k iirc.

Should I wait until I can afford everything in one go then? Sounds like about 25k in total to mq Swiftwind.

At your level (48), the faster damage bonus application from a simple Jade Mace (9/18) makes it competitive with Winter's Fury. Weapons like Exquisite Velium Warsword (12/21) and Crafted Velium Warsword (10/18) are superior to Winter's Fury and within your stated budget. They are even superior to Earthcaller in terms of damage output, the reason to get Earthcaller is to proc slow (and look cool doing it). Venemous Axe of the Velium Brood doesn't even come close to any of these, it is only good at low levels when you don't have the damage bonus and the proc damage is relatively large compared to mob health.

I’m always looking for stats on weapons, strength, hp, etc. I factor that in with the ratio and try to find a good middle ground.

Well, you shouldn't. Stats are gravy, focus on the damage output of the weapons.

meh. why bother when you cn just buy staff of btattle and save all your plat for a BIS weapon/haste in the future?
