Natures wrath is 100 PP.

29/44 +4 wis +20 mana with effect: natures wrath.

Not as good as 31/35 but its not bad at all and the stats are nice to have along with the effect you can start using at lvl 46. Now factor in the price difference and there you go.

So don't get so touchy because my option doesn't exactly match yours. It's ok to disagree.

Woodsman staff dps wise is just below the ranger epic... For 4k...

Maybe compare it to something that isn't complete garbage.

3k for a worse weapon? Hm

One man's garbage is another mans treasure. I would pay 1K maybe 1.5K for that.

But at only 100 PP I still say this is the best bang for the buck if your a poor Ranger.

I read that too in those threads. I just wonder why it was 100-200 PP for so long and then jumped to 4K. I grouped with a lot of rangers in MM, CoM and KC. Almost all of them were sporting two swords that were not epics. Now maybe it's just a fashion thing. 2 swords does look cooler then a big stick for sure.

Quit buying/selling to boutik.
I’ve had enough of that incomplete sentencing making fool.

I couldn't agree more! Boutik should definetely step away from the game for a bit and spend some time with a Rosetta stone for English.

"what weapon(s) do you feel are overpriced in today's market?"

That's quoted from the title of this thread. So yeah, my opinion on a weapon I think is over priced has something to do with the thread. In fact it has everything to do with it.

My two biggest are probably:

Zhearts - simply ain't that good. Useful but not 145k useful
Maple leaf mask - this item is a fucking joke in every way. It goes for 50-90k iirc and I wouldnt pay 3k for it.

hard wrong, z-heart is bis on every caster

As someone who plays 2 high level casters and used zhearts on them, I'm going to agree to disagree. Enchanters will benefit from having one sure, but I wouldnt pay 145k for it. My necro will use epic main hand everyday all day, instead of a zheart even without being iksar. The regen is just too insignificant on a class that has lifetaps

Will admit bias because my enchanter has a ring10 and doesnt need a zheart anymore

Combine Great Staffs. Unlike most combine weapons they lose most of their value as soon as you walk them out of the shop.

Also the ivory handled weapons from Cabilis Salt Market. Sure, they look good and are magical, but you'll never find a vendor buying them for any amont of plat close to what you paid for it!

The only thing off the top of my head is the woodsman staff. I was using search here to see what a good ranger weapon would be and I found a ton of threads talking about how a woodsman staff was the best bang for the buck weapon a ranger can get at only 100-200 PP.

Then I go to EC tunnel and see they are selling for 4K PP. YIKES, those threads were a bit outdated I guess. It doesn't even have any stats and is 2H blunt so it prevents you from having stats in your secondary slot. No thanks.

Oh and the spell nature walkers behest selling for 500pp LOL. It's a worthless druid pet! For 50 pp I might buy it just for fun but 500? I don't think so! Homey don't play dat!

Allow me to expose my colon once again.
Dead wrong on woodsman staff, but high 5 for the In Living Color quote
