I actually just picked up a dirk off dorn randomly like a month ago, took me only 20 years.

This guy paths in front of Najena, rare spawn (ph must be one of the wanderers in front), but he drops a magical spear and shield every time. Level 14.

Neat! 6/29 is a pretty damn good ratio to get at level 15 in classic too!

In my eternal struggle to relax and just decide to play a bertox necro I have now decided I am going to play a Innoruk necro, and so Im gonna try to get this guy to pop if you want to join me I will be in front of the broken door levels 10-17 [You must be logged in to view images.

It's level appropriate. That's marginally worse than a combine longsword (6/28) and equivalent to a vendor-bought nonmagic longsword. Bull Smasher at 6/20 has a very strong ratio for something obtainable in the early/mid-teens, but it's not magical. The players who were using tarnished weapons/etc well into the teens were hamstringing themselves unnecessarily. Paladins could obtain a Deepwater Harpoon at ridiculously low level if they knew about the quest, but the method of doing so does not presently work on P99 and probably never will.

Gladius and Pugius are Unrest drops so they're not practically obtainable until more like the mid/upper teens. Lesser Blade Fiend is also rather rare, although seemingly more common on P99 (where he's merely rare) than he was in the original game (where he was virtually a myth).

Are you sure? We've low-level guildmates with DW Harpoon. It is a wonderful weapon.

[Danth]

The folks I know of who obtained the Harpoon on Green/Teal used slightly different methods than were typically used in the original game, which was the same I as noticed when I did the quest years ago on P1999. I wasn't implying that the quest doesn't work on P1999, only that it doesn't behave exactly the same as it did in the original game. It's a nice low-mid level weapon, but it's long in the tooth by the mid 30's. Few players will want to push all the way to 50 wielding one, although it could be done.

How much do the Combine weapons run?

Giving more and more thought towards rolling Ogre SK, so also interested in an early magic option that's not going to require the early faction work of the good city quested weapons...

wee harvester? Its a 2h blunt weapon for druid but maybe only druid idk, its an easy quest, also could reward you with a very good starter belt for halflings too!

Starts in misty 8)

It was low key as popular as a stein of moggok for basically every druid that was good first few months of live classic!

Its a very historic and powerful weapon.

I mean you saw someone holding a shovel back then and it was like WOWY WOW WOW, then you tell them there is a rare one with GOOD stats for low levels? And its lee33t. 8)
