The clicky is self only :/. The stats don't really favor either melee or caster, until you get to the AC, then any tanking class is pretty much ruled out.

I think it would be more appropriate if the blades spell were made to be target cast, or possibly, changed to a self effect that would better reflect the ALL/ALL(minus tank class) nature of the item, like a minor worn lich effect keeping with the theme of the item name and zone it comes from (kind of like a caster version of gibber ring). Or the effect could be traded for enough AC to make it a viable consolation prize for any class not getting an Agonizer helm / Mutilated skull / Diadem for a while.

I'm not here to shoot down your idea, but from my experience, the mob this comes from is pretty easy for what is a pretty decent item. Making it a tank/plate helm doesn't seem like the best fix imo because the Agonizer drops a superior helm and he was likely killed before this guy if you are fighting "in order."

While the clicky might be useless (many classes have an AA or self buff blades line spell), I just want to throw out my 2 cents that we have found this item to be an appropriate upgrade and it fits into the zone's loot somewhat well. If the clicky were targetable, it would be neat, but as far as the item goes, I feel it's decent for its tier.

This item is very good for the mob, the clicky is just a bonus. There is no way we're improving upon it further.

The mob its not that easy at all, his DPS and rampage can make lots of problems over a raid, and if we consider that its his rare drop and that only drop one item,.... but i wont change the item neither, as a mnk i use it a lot of times, carring along wiith the resist gear like always.

comparativly, the mob is hella easy

that helmet wont get upgraded for a long time on a cleric or druid and probably some other classes too

Hmm, Hsargh can cause you trouble if your not paying attention. But otherwise is a pansy. His 2 loots (hammer and coronet) fit him well imho.

For what it's worth, the words like trade and consolation prize to Xmob-loots weren't implying upgrade. I just thought it could use a little tweaking to not be a case of either bagged item for subpar effect for half of the classes, or subpar item with a useless effect for the other half of the classes. (compared to skull which is bonus loot coming from one similar and two entry level difficulty encounters in the zone) I guess i shouldn't have mentioned diadem though.

I also wanted to toss in the idea of a hp draining + mana item effect, similar to the way gibbers ring works because that's awesome. :toot:

Awesome but overpowered =/ The item is not subpar for any class in regards to when it can be obtained.
