i am skeptical too about imbrued. i know all the armor drops in both planes
were made much more rare, but at least we have seen pieces of it all dropped
since then. i have yet to see imbrued.

the ykesha/rapier is a toss-up for me. ykesha has the proc, rapier has 1
better delay (negligible, but its there) and nice 5str 4gi stats. since if
i did use a ykesha it would be in my secondary hand only and since it will
proc less there, i am using the rapier for the stats. and i like wielding 2
PoH weps =) when i got my rapier and lute i was lucky enough to be the only
bard there. when i got the six note blade, i was lucky enough to win a
50/50 lotto.
