Pet weapons

There's that AoE proccing no drop sword from Sol B which you can still give to your pet IIRC... [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

That sounds like a horrible idea for a soloing mage with a pet that can't hold agro on more than 1 mob at a time.

Going to be editing this post as I find more things. And will also clean it up once I'm finished. Bear with me as this is an ongoing process.

Starting with Kunark weapons:

The first one is lore so it doesn't fit the bill exactly, but I remember the Steel Hilted Flint Daggerbeing absolutely INSANE damage. Sometimes would double a pet's DPS with this one weapon alone.

Next is the Scorpikis Claw Impaler. Not that great, but procs a DoT for a little extra damage.

Dagger of Frost isn't bad, and it appears to drop off multiple creatures.

Canyoneer Pikeis nodrop but not lore, so you can have many of them. Not the greatest pet weap ever, but it procs a 25% slow, which could come in quite handy in certain situations.

Blood Point is a very very good pet weap it seems like. Not lore and has an 80 point life tap, DD+heals = win!

Wintry Club is another decent weap. It isn't lore and procs a 30ish DD. Nothing to freak out over but solid nonetheless.

Master Wu's Trance Stick appears to drop off trash in CoM, has a nice DD component to it and isn't lore. Might be something to look into depending on the rarity.

Deadwood Stave is another nice lifetap weapon. And it isn't lore, but there appears to be limited information on it. Still a nice option.

And just for use now, before kunark drops, here are some Classic pet weapons:

Obsidian Shard isn't lore. Did not know that. It isn't spectacular but 30DD proc isn't horrible.

For those of you wondering what the
lifetap whip is. It is nice as it is DD+heal, but the damage is completely underwhelming (for the most part).

And for all 2 of you who are wondering whatthe stun whip is. It stuns most critters, good for agro, interrupting spells and slightly lowering mob DPS (can't attack while stunned).

And the root sword from Lower Guk. Not only does it root the mob, but it has a very nice DD component.

And finally, the Serrated Bone Dirk Snare is incredibly useful in situations where you don't want mobs to run (such as seb when Kunark hits).

Why? Especially for pet classes, you should be fighting mobs one at a time anyhow. It's extra damage [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Aside from all that, I thought it would still be really amusing [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

....Conflag is a level 44 wizard nuke - 625 DD IIRC.

That's absolutely ridiculous.

AE weaps are fine if you have tons of room and feel very comfortable in not getting adds. It would be good if you are farming tons of low level mobs where adds wouldn't matter. But in situations where I would really need or want a pet weap are generally situations where I'm not 100% comfortable with my surroundings. So I would have little use for AE weaps generally.

Oh and the SHFD was pure ownage for a pet weap on live when I could get my hands on it. The good thing about it is that it is ranger only, and most rangers simply didn't want it because of the poor ratio, didn't want to deal with the INSANE agro it generated and didn't want to rely upon a proc for doing most of the damage. So I could often find this thing for cheap on live, dunno how it will play out here.

The only problem I can think of is that it does not proc till level 50, and according to the P99 wiki, kunark mage pets top out at level 49. So it may not proc ever proc for pets on this server. Although I distinctly remember using this on my shaman on live, and I doubt that it was level 50 until PoP. And I believe that I was using the SHFD well before then. Eh, my memory sucks though.

ranger root sword. . ? people seriously don't use the earth pet very often it seems. He roots without weapons and easily can control 3 freeport guards (if you aren't noob)

My list of pet weapons is finished. What do you all think about it?

Neach: the ranger root sword is a 50DD + root proc.. so it's like a staff of writhing with a free root on top of it.

Considering it's 50-100pp depending, and not lore, you can stack em like mad as a necro. I always have 4+ on me.

And i love me man-o-wars.., surprised no one has brought them up.. if they were not lore, i'd never leave rathe mtns. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Also yeah I've got about 40 stun whips stockpiled for Kunark.

Wow man, thats really a good idea.

Besides being and ec and doing this ^ i cant understand why anyone would "take time to farm" pet weapons, and its not manditory at all for any class.

But hey if you like doing it i'd take this guys idea. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
