Malicious Posted May 26, 2009 Report Share Posted May 26, 2009 It seems that all the most powerful weapons obtainable at lvl 25-35 are all exotics. This is frustrating because I try to master weapons while solo-ranking, yet I feel limited to a weapon for which there is no trainable skill... Am I wrong here or what? Rods/blacksphere/planar blade etc etc seem much better than Whip of Dominion/emerald sword/other non-exotic mid-level weapons... How does exotic work itself as a skill? Do all classes share an innate 75% proficiency in it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malchaeius Posted May 26, 2009 Report Share Posted May 26, 2009 Your skill with exotic weapons correlates to your level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest emp_newb Posted May 26, 2009 Report Share Posted May 26, 2009 Honestly I prefer the following weapons for level 30: Dragon tail whip (dragon tower in shadow grove.) Emerald sword (also dragon tower) Fiery dagger/icicle (elemental canyon.) Sharp glaive (tarandue) Staff of fangs (Minoma) Frozen flail (minoma) serpentine flail (minoma) That is a pretty decent covering of all the 25-35 range with non-rare weaponry. Alot of those are very nice as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tantangel Posted May 26, 2009 Report Share Posted May 26, 2009 At least two of those are rare weapons, haven't seen the last three though or ID'd them since Minoma was put in mostly because I haven't tried IDing anything in there because I can't cast it anymore and I hate Brambus.

Guest emp_newb Posted May 26, 2009 Report Share Posted May 26, 2009 yes, the whip, and sword are both rares. BUT they are also relatively easy to get at level 25+. For something with decent damage output. A shaman, bmg, or cleric MAY have trouble gaining those things at level 30. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KRins Posted May 26, 2009 Report Share Posted May 26, 2009 Bmgs should have no issue acquiring any of those things. It is clerics that will have the issue and even then...you are a cleric. Get your hunting party to take that little side trip for you while you are waiting for mobs to repop and you will be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get your hunting party to take that little side trip for you while you are waiting for mobs to repop and you will be fine. What? You're a cleric. Grab a gharnizon or crappy little merc. Recite a scroll. You can get all that stuff easily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest emp_newb Posted May 27, 2009 Report Share Posted May 27, 2009 I try to give information that you can use solo. The gharnizon and golem require you to know two of the most out of the way recalls. Which I am not counting on when explaining where to get a sharp glaive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mya Posted May 27, 2009 Report Share Posted May 27, 2009 Clerics ? Fiery Sceptre all the way. I get PK's with that crap. As most Armor at that rank lacks decent AC vs Magic. Good weapons for 30's. Sharp Glaive - Polearm Iron Pike - Polearm Alexus Holy Avenger - Sword Fiery/Icicle - Dagger Frostbrand - Sword Rare Hell Blade - Sword, no drop Hell Spear - Spear, no drop Rusty blade - Sword, no rem (not for newbies) Emerald Sword - Sword, put a socket on it. Fiery Sceptre - Mace, best magic mace in game short of pinacle. Warhammer MageWapper - Mace Shocking Spear - Spear Dragons tail - Whip Frozen Flail - Flail Shop Staff of Fang - Staff Overpowered serpentine snake flail - Flail Flail consumed tainted - Flail , no drop Flaming Morningstar - Flail, shop Holy Rod - Exotic, Holy damage Planar Blade - Exotic, rare. Rod Stars - Exotic, (not for newbies) Lots of weapons. Just grab a Vulnerability weapon while you are ranking and you should be well. Battlemages, wait for haste before mastering weapons. Use practice weapons when ranking. You meele output sucks anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
