Anyone seen the LS hand to hand raid weapon drop yet? It is supposed to drop from the Artisan and Druid raid, but we are yet to see it.
Unsure why anyone would want the HtH weapons. Low raid healing and BL having to offtank too often, perhaps??
https://items.eqresource.com/items.php?id=171752&aug8=151226 paired with AA: https://spells.eqresource.com/spells.php?id=40854 gives the beastlord immortality for 42 seconds. Suppliment that with clickies and disciplines and natural 50% avoidance rate (as in avoiding/dodging 50% of incoming melee) and the beastlord can tank mission encounters easily, even without a healer. Raid effect? Not that much, but who cares about raiding? EQ is a group game.
You spelled "T1 1hb" wrong! EQ would have died in 2001 if it was just a group game. Velious would have been the last expansion.
zero. but thats mostly just as well. i think alot of monks would love to see a great return of h2h someday, but not at the expense of gutting 2hb.
Assuming all and only t1 raid gear is relegated to alts, they'd realistically have access to the t1 blunt and h2h, and h2h would be offhand! And if they have full access to both tiers, they'd still take t2 club in primary and t2 h2h in secondary. The ratio increase over t1 club would roflstomp the slightly better proc in your offhand.
Chill. Perhaps Cadira meant to use T1 h2h (33.06 ratio) in offhand istead of 27.79 Bashe-Smasher 1hB with better proc. Meanwhile 33.06 ratio 1hB Unbalanced Club goes to Primary. https://items.eqresource.com/items.php?id=171753 https://items.eqresource.com/items.php?id=171747 https://items.eqresource.com/items.php?id=171752
You can also use player made Hammer of Perpetual Reverie or Bug Squasher from Bonestripper in Pal'Lomen. These both have a 5200 point Remote Healing proc. Great for keeping Merc tanks alive.
Yes, those are what my bards used (before today's patch, now they'll go back to Spectral weapons). Although, the converstaion was about raid weapons and for a beastlord the Katar is a much higher dps option.
