Good find man thanks.

Rangers are killer in Velious. Get some decent buffs, finally get upgraded defense at the end, and insane DPS with the BFG.

Not the most game breaking, but still fun.

Isn't terribly overpowering above 50, but I always loved the blue glowing fist Zlans heart for int casters with worn effect regen.

Blade of Carnage/Sceptre of Destruction/Velium Encrusted Gauntlets were some of my favorite items owned on live too.

bad news here bro

on live during Velious the heart looked like an 'icy Velious' scimitar graphic, not that cool blue GBS you remember

very dumb that a heart looks like a Scimmy but it did

[baalzy]

Doesn't matter, has regen.

Not only did it look sweet but you could launch players or NPC's with this thing. People found ways to exploit with it eventually and it was removed. I remember hearing a rumor about launching people onto the roof of Mistmoore Castle. Crazy weapon, hope it sticks around on P99.

I remember bfg's being quite common on Innoruuk server when velious dropped. Very badass lil ranged. We used to duel on the roof of mistmoore back pre kunark , old school memories right there. I knew and still know every single crevice of that zone heh.
