Lowbie Twink GS

Print Post  
So I have decided that I am going to TR Paladdium into a WF FvS. I know that Carnifex is typically the twink weapon of choice, but since I will be using Greatswords, are there decent twink Greatswords out there? I have a few already on Paladdium, but nothing really in the lowbie range. I do have a Nicked Greatsword roaming around somewhere.

I haven't seen a lot of twink type greatswords on the ah or trade channel.  Your best option may be the nicked greatsword until you have access to carnifex.  However, if you are going to use a greataxe at lower levels Maelstrom isn't a bad option.  It's min lvl 2 with frost and anarchic damage.

I ended up finding a +1 Acid Greatsword of Pure Good and I was very happy with it for a surprisingly long time.

It's not the bestest weapon evar, but it did a nice job for me.  I threw Icy Burst on it last week in case I ever need another Greatsword, but even without the Risian crafting, I was surprised at how quickly I chopped things down with a FvS.

I don't think you will take a big hit using the carniflex for awhile.

Only low level named greatsword I can think of is Sword of the Thirty.

Not sure if it's any good, but i think it has 3d4 damage dice instead of 2d6.

Hmmm, I'll check the ol' mule tonight, but I want to say my only twink 2handers are a keen GA of pure good and a keen falchion of pure good.

I should qualify here, I am just looking for input. If Carnifex is pretty much still going to be the best bet and still be good with the -4 to hit, then I'll get to zerging Deleras to try to get it.

More importantly it looks awesome.

Used it on my WF FvS while getting favor from each server. As it's a greatsword it's normally cheap on the AH.

It is BtA, so it is worth having. I think I have 2 or 3 floating around.

This.  I didn't equip it on my Wizard since 3x crap still equals crap with his strength (he just piked his way through levels 4-6), but on any character that will consider melee as an alternative to sitting down and picking their nose during a fight, it's a spectacular weapon as long as you start with either martial weapon proficiencies or Master's Touch.

I'd still try to scrounge up a real Greatsword for a WF FvS, but you'll really enjoy having a Carnifex in your bank for any time that you make a character that wants to beat people up and take their lunch money.

Fuck you, Ruin.  Fuck you for saying something I agree with.

Fucking christ on a crutch...Can't believe I agree with Ruin.  But the Sword of the Thirty is a badass looking sword.  And a min lvl 4 +2 Keen 3d4 weapon is pretty fucking nice.

Sword of Thirty - (Weapon) +2 Greatsword (Base dmg: 3d4), Keen (Champion Guptrak's Chest)

It is in Tear of Dhakaan.  Lvl 4 min lvl.  Faster farming then the GA if you are really that hard up about GS and GA's.

I am starting to look at stocking up on GS from 1-12 or so, I have a few above that already, plus I am working on a Min2 as well.

I looked for it in the AH, but none were on there. Tear will be much faster than running Deleras.

hmm... i have a Sword of the Thirty lying around somewhere for sure
i'll have to check to see what other greatswords i have though,
lvl 1~12 huh, i'm guessing you just need stuff to use before you can use your Greensteel
i check back later when i finish cleaning my banks

btw, you looking for a generic beater? or something in particular?

Generic beaters at this point,since you really can't get much specific until after around 12 anyway.

Just a question? WTF is all the talk about twinking low levels?

They watered the game down so much you could use the silver flame club until level 10!

The challenge is when you pug out the other 5 slots.

Because it's fun, and because the whole point of CRPGs, especially MMOs is that there is no kill like overkill?

When people bring in their personal lives, it is all fair game.  This board promotes trolling.  If you bring something up, expect it to be used against you at a later date if not immediately.  You want to bring up personal shit, well, that is your problem.

If one fails to understand the nuances of elite level trolling they would falsely interpret posts meant to fan the flames as support.

Agreed.
