wow, dirk has really out dirked himself now, of course there are tons of them with all the same stats, they drop like that lol

u try spending an uber amount of time lvling, banking, farming, and eventually, u build yourself an arsenal

as far as farming them, it's kinda easy, and i can farm anything on dex and keep farming them, have you spawned demogogles 2 times in 5 mins?? well, i have

and as for the gloves and the accusations, well have standard drops, but no all, cause i boosted mine from the lot of kewpies i won and also from stones i farmed and bought off player... do the math

1. First of all you don't know that.
2. Second of all Nekro staff doesn't do 700 in one round. Learn to read it just changes the damage type.
3. Third of all since when did you come back to DEX and play for DV? . Thought you quit for good.
4. Finally, you know I always know what I am talking about. Get a staff and do the testing.

1. Yes, I do. I would have read something on DV forums about it by now if they did.
2. I'm talking about flame arrows, not the staff - if the player fails the reflex save that is.
3. I haven't, I have quit for good, but with the higher numbers it's very tempting to go to Best Buy and put down $20 ><
4. You know more about the game mechanics than any other players I know, but you can never be right about every thing. The majority of players are crying about flame arrows in general, not the Nekro staff.

Remove the "change half of flame arrow damage to negative dmg" ability and make the staff work for sorcs as well. Other nerfs may be needed for separate spells and abilities tied to this thread.

If this happens the time spent farming the staff won't even be worth it imo.

It still gets a great bonus. Total damage is completely unchanged.

1/200 chance not much time.

If they all have the same stats I feel left out. I have crappy neg/acid ones. ><

Can we get back to the facts here? Necro staff doesn't increase damage people! It just changes the TYPE of damage!

Resist Fire feats helped against Fire Damage Flame Arrow, RDD helped, Burning retort Pots helped. Elemental resist pots.

But to counter Negative Damage Flame Arrows we got a Scroll with DC77. Breachable Shadowshield, lol. 1 round to use it...

basicly the damage increase is pretty much

Umm.. don't forget that any mage packs a few shadow shields.. and that a lvl 3 cleric spell makes you immune to neg.
