Subject: crookstinger and...


What is the going rate for crookstinger? Someone was trying to get me to
purchase one for 300pp, which seemed excessive for something I wanted mearly
as a novety item. Can anyone confirm the stats to be 4 dam/21 delay/proc:
weak poison? The seller was advertizing it to be proc: poison. Big
difference there, but I still don't think it warrents 300 pp. :)

Now for the and... part: how do you guys handle poiletly exiting a group?
If I can't get together with my normal crew/guild then I do like everyone
else and join up with whoever is around. Sometimes this works wonderously
and I add the best to my friends list for later, but most of the time its
just so-so. This I can handle, its part of the game. Rarely however, you
join up with a completely backwards group and you know you're either going
to die or things are going to be horrifically slow. I always have a
difficult time leaving on poliet terms (since I really DON'T want to just
say "You guys are gonna get me killed, I'm outta here." or, "You guys don't
know how to play and refuse to listen to my suggestions.") but...

And I agree with the previous statment that bards make excellent battle
field commanders; for some reason we (this list at any rate) have invested
the time to learn how to make the peices work well together insofar as
learning other classes' roles in the fray. Twisting songs can be a chore at
time, but I have temedous fun with song selection, trying new song orders,
etc. I feel above the fight in a lot of ways even if I'm throwing punches
or swinging a sword. I hate to tell someone how to play their character but
when you hear a 20th level warrior in oasis saying "My taunt's at 15, I
never use it." or seeing the enchanter wade into the melee while trying to
cast you feel compelled to say something if for nothing else than self
preservation.

If anyone's on Veeshan, feel free to give me a tell, I'm always up to
something!
