surtar scimitar vs. avenger vs. dk

Postby Thilindel » Thu May 03, 2007 10:59 pm

Some of this has been brought up before.

Avenger - relatively easy to quest.

DK - Not easy at all

Shimmering Scimitar - definitely not easy.

Ok, so why is the Avenger so powerful, yet both Avenger/DK proc heals, ..well and Avenger even heals OUT of battle. Anyway, I was curious how others felt about the shimmering scimitar's cure light/cure serious proc vs. the other aforementioned swords.

I'm trying to stay neutral and just get other's feedback. What I said about Avenger etc is just my observation.

I don't think you can really compare musp sword to the other two.

First off, let's deal with Avenger. It's a class specific weapon that only procs at relatively high level.

Easy quest? Again, relatively. But still, restricted to a single class.

DK - Class specific, a very fun powerful weapon in its own standing(out of the two, I prefer DK.), and the quest is relatively annoying, but along with that you get some other nifty items from the quest. Bad item to compare.

Musp Sword? Decently hard quest for an item that's _not_ class specific. It's usable by any warrior-type class, and not restricted to a single class. I think it's fine for what it is. I'm peachy keen to use it as a warrior.

I just don't think you can really compare the three. I don't think it works.

I have to agree with Arilin sadly.

The problem is that with DK and with musp scimitar you get a bunch of other items too which brings down the amount of points avaible on the weopons.

My solution: Spin DK out into its own quest.

DK is one of the huge reason kerns gets done these days. The other items you get are very secondary usually. If they took DK out of it, I seriously doubt that particular quest would get done ever at this point in the game. Maybe if you're really into sadism.

Oh good grief, especially when you consider what you have to give up...

Bleh.

Some day.


Avenger only works now at high levels.. I quested my blade and began wielding it at 24th I think it was, then changes went in.

God skill work. *whimper* Needless to say, Pally stays in the inn alot.
