War Axe of the Frogloks

Dalayan Beginner
I was wondering if anyone has leveled this Axe and can tell me what stats/ratio will be ?

http://wiki.shardsofdalaya.com/index.php/War_Axe_of_the_Frogloks

It drops off of Lord Commander Ragarti lvl 52 max engage Adept. Now I just found out today I could check how much exp til it levels, and according to cm itemexpreport it costs just over 6million Exp to level up 1 level.

I have put in almost 3million exp into it, just wondering if I should stick with it or pursue something else, like a 2H.

If anyone could show me a Fomelo of it increased, or post here about it I would appreciate it.

Thanks,
Kaezyr D`Shiv
 
if it is only 10% or +1 that is not very improved over an underpowered item to begin with. especially after investing 6million exp into it. at 20/30 +2 pois dmg i would rather get a 2h and leave it behind me.

I was thinkin of gettin a pristine soulshear axe i think i would like that better. it should be like 18/27 pristine. anyone have any suggestions?

I disagree with your assessment of this...

Poison DMG: 2

STR: +10 STA: +12 HP: +35 MANA: +35
This item grows with experience.
WT: 4.8 Size: Medium

...being underpowered. It comes off of a 52 adept, and it is noticeably improved over its previous version, it is noticeably better than Soulfire now, and it is a nice step on the way to a Rotblade. Also I am not sure why you are talking about 2h weapons when this is a 1h weapon??

oh and definitely better than Spectral Staff of Dread

oh and lastly (and i dont main a tank so any other tanks out there correct me if im wrong), pretty sure you would want to take the War Axe's (base) 10 ac, 12 STA, and 35hp over Soulshear's 0 ac and flat 50hp...youre a shadowknight and ratio shouldnt govern your decision on a 1h weapon

Yah , youre probably right

I was just thinking about something Zaela said in another post:

It varies a bit between items but in general I think things fell into a fairly intuitive curve. Stuff from the really really low level adepts like Rabb and now Gristle can possibly last a non-twink into the teens or twenties. Stuff from the other lower level adepts should potentially last through to the 30s or 40s, stuff from the mid-level adepts should last into the 50s or so, and stuff from the 50+ adepts should last into the lower raid game, hopefully

I am considering replacing it already and I am not even tiered, only 60.

As to me talking about 2h, i solo or duo mostly and group rarely, i have currently since I started playing again been leveling up the War Axe, If it is gonna take this much work for only that much of an increase I believe it might be a waste of time. If i were to switch to a 2h I can increase my dps and might suit my solo play style more so i can get the AA's I want at 60.

Thanks for the feedback Phrogg

P.S. Devs , please replace the SK thurg wrist with an SK-type Soulfire weapon! thank you!

I am actually glad I leveled it up , it has become quite a decent weapon after all.

Thanks.

pro-tip: if the wiki was updated with %increase, the stats get auto-updated. Knowing the exact number from the in-game report would be nice, but it looks to me like it's a 10% increase. (As Rari said above.)
Except it doesn't display the hp properly on the wiki until 13%, which then raises the sta an extra one. So there is a glitch in the wiki calc compared to the game calc, it seems.

This... SK Thurg bracer is not too good compared to other class rewards across the board.

1 handed hammer and 2 handed hammer similar to Soulfire would have been the bees knees or the best thing since sliced bread....whichever is better.

Back on topic: That war axe is pretty sweet especially for the level.

True thing.

I'll try to sort out the error sooner or later. The chunks of code where this is handled are part of itemstats though, and anyone who has looked at it should be familiar with how dense the code is.

Quite true, the proc from the thurg bracer is nice, but requires you fight caster mobs to make use of it. It doesn't proc often enough, imo, to make putting up with caster mobs to use it. But, I also wouldn't want another 1hb. (The starfall weapon is 1hb, and is awesome with the exp code. It's hard to replace now, really.) Giving the bracer a small stat boost would improve it greatly, or maybe FT (with, or instead of the proc). And if it must be a weapon, make it a sword also.. just give it sk epic graphic from live.
Or at least add those floating skulls to the starfall weapon, it is so plain looking. :(

About the War Axe, it make me even sorrier that I gave up trying to get a raid to go after that axe now, the upgrade made a sweet axe even sexier.
 
Seriously Rykke, some people just don't know a sweet-ass weapon, until they get smacked by it I guess. Kudos to Zae for sure for making the exp loot thing happen.

Though your assessment on spectral staff is wrong in your earlier post, imo. With the exp code in, it becomes very nice. Decent ratio (.648), nice ac (18), some respectable stats, and a great hate proc, all available in your 30's to start. Only down side to it, is the slow speed of it (37), but if you time quick-casts between swings, it isn't a downside at all. My sk is 55/7, and almost has level 4 of it done. Since I couldn't get the raid for the war axe, I continue to use this, and hadn't seen much that would replace it, without spending a small fortune, or raiding.

Yeah true. With the Starfall rewards able to level up the Spectral Staff is very nice now.
