A tiny spider ring

Postby Ruagh » Fri Nov 14, 2003 12:56 pm

A tiny spider ring - Let me throw my 5c in. It used to be ac0 hp50. Now it is a mere ac0 hp37, ie a useless junk. That is while the stuff like amey hasnt been changed alot. Do you realize that you have broken one more item? Because it was already !doable after the changes which have been made like a year ago (a !locate rareload on the mob which ates you *shiver*), and nobody was messing with it anyway, even with its old stats. And what has been done? It has been turned into a complete "forgotten old-timer trinket", which can only be used to impress the newbies who dont know their way around.

Personally, I think that this ring deserves its old stats, 50hp. But this is just my personal opinion.

Agree. Rare item on a mob with a HIGH percentage deathproc should have a crapload of points available.
Even when groups try using 'cheese' methods to kill the worm, several people still end up being eaten.

agreed that 37 hp is a bit low, but whatever, everything took a hit, and there are far biger injustices done to some eq.

On the other hand, yes, a !locate rare on a mob that can eat you definately should have a bonus. I'm just wondering how many points were assigned to the bladder...

Personally I'd think the bladder should have bare minimal points. Does anyone use it besides as a quest item?

I lost my bladder while fighting a hoarde of hobgoblins back in the year of the bear. I've been using this purple worm bladder since then, and I've found it to be great. I can drink a whole tankard of mead from Brimir's without having to go to the bathroom.

Bladder is a piece of crap. Heavy as hell. Mob's proc heals itself quite nicely too. Whoever gave this fight its points musta forgotten that. There is no 'twinking' to this fight. There's always a risk, especially with the other wandering agg runt mobs that have same keyword. Blind or not, they can f' your day up cuz you tag the wrong one. Let alone, once, while searching after mob's demise, it repopped. 'Search'...(splat, it proc'd me)

I might be wrong, but aren't these the best tank rings in the game now?
