[Ytrazliarch] A sword for the SoD of Today

Ytrazliarch is just not what it use to be.

I am not going to pretend that I was around when this sword was the end all "bread and butter" for the warrior class. All I know is that currently the quest [The Blade of Suffering] is really not worth doing.

There is a number of swords in the game now that are superior to Ytrazliarch

Partisan of the Lost
Hysteria
Solarflare
Razorleif

These four weapons, I am sure there is more, are weapons that are both better in quality as well as easier to obtain.

The Blade of Suffering quest is a rather long and difficult quest. You have to obtain ~20 items that are not very easy to come by. There is also raiding and faction work to be dealt with. It is a shame that warriors of today have very little incentive to work toward this quest and more and more people will just skip doing it all together.

Perhaps the sword would be buffed a bit to make it at least a bit more in line with the other weapons I listed.

Something around that would make the sword much more sought after as well not making it too overpowered.
 
i agree with kedrin and his suggested changes seemed fair to me could also make it expable to improve it further (how much is undertermined by us)...just a thought though.
 
like i said "could" didnt say it needed it =p. i guess i just like expable items or something.
 
I agree, I would have loved to do this quest for my baby warrior however it was much easier just to go on some PuGs and scum him T8 loot instead.
 
I think making a lot of the lower tier quests like this Expable would help them out. Adding more exp to the quest chains also would help.
 
I honestly didn't find that quest all that difficult back when I was on tier, got most of it done in a day. Although I wouldnt argue it becoming an expandable item.

I was going to do this quest for my friend but then I realized that it involves killing a bunch of low tier mobs, some which are killed super quick (like percelan). Thats not really bad at all, its expected from a tough quest. However the reward is kind of bad compared to some BOEs and cmal gear.

I think that the sword could definitely use some more HP and a slightly better ratio. The amount of time and effort is pretty high for a weapon that can easily be replaced by all sorts of low end raid or BOE items.

Make the quest worth doing and it would be a great option for new players. Also it should be knight usable.

There's an alternative to having to kill Parcelan.
 
The quest is worth doing just because it's a rad as fuck quest okay.

You got really fucking lucky with spawns. I did it before quest versions though, so maybe that changed things.
