Bokuto with obscene stats...

Okay, let me preface this...

I have not seen this bokuto myself, but an alliance mate was attacked by the owner in Fel and later saw the guy in Luna holding it.

He managed to take a pic, and what it shows... how is it possible?

The properties are way above the maximum imbuable, and it doesn't appear to be enhanced. So how is it possible?

Maybe I'm daft but...

1: Permanently???

2: It does so where other people can read it on your weapon? Does that not leave room for HUGE scams? "Selling UBER-weapon! 20 gazillion gold!" *completes transactions and runs off only to leave a guy with a weapon with half of the stats he thought it had in his wake*

I would imagine that in a trade window it would revert back to it's natural state but if someone wasn't vigilant, they could get seriously ripped off...

Pretty sure as soon as the weapon leaves your hands the mods go back to normal.

In a trade window the bokuto would show it's real stats.

I'll never understand bokutos with hitspell. What's the point of ns? Lightning breaks it.

Delay spells break it. Magic Arrow and Fireball are delay spells. Lightning and Harm aren't.

Most people that know things about pvp (the only people that'd buy that weapon) know the max mods of weapons and would be able to point out that it's focus attack being initiated.

Did NS actually hit?? Have you seen it actually para and hit lightning on the same hit? I haven't. I have seen a NS that para'ed on a bokuto with hit lightning, but the spell didn't hit.
Lightning/Harm damage appears before the initial hits damage does so that's why it doesn't effect it.

I'm confused on the reasoning for adding ssi to it. Any stam over 90(?) with that weapon will result in 1.25 no matter what the ssi is.

Dont pvp do ya?

Being able to have as much mana as possible is the name of the game. I want a lot of Hit points and a huge mana pool. I don't want to waist stat points in dex when they can be utilized in other places...

keep it as like 125 str, 20-30 dex, rest into mana... that's why you want ssi on bokutos.

sometimes. I still use an old fencer/archer temp so I'm pulled in both directions regarding stam. One needs very little stam while the other ... ya I got issues.

Focus Attack. Doubles intensities even when other people look at them until the attack hits.

Hit lightning doesn't break para or nerve strike, neither does hit harm, only fireball and magic arrow do, if you think otherwise, you must have never PvPed before thus why are you even arguing about it?

you dont PvP either do ya? What you going to do with an 11 second bandie on a dexxer with 20-30 dex? With imbuing its not that easy to have 140+ HP, 140 dex (4 second heals) and over 100 mana. IMHO, dexxers still suck though :p

BTW, the lightning and harm has never broken NS, pretty sure they fixxed it so fireball and MA don't break it anymore either.

He did come out a bit rude. Bokuto dexer with low dexer can go with 4/6 chiv healing route actually a lot of nerve death strike dexer do this however judging by that bok missing fc1 he's not 4/6.

Also all dmg done by the nerve striker will NOT break nerve strike, this including all instant and delayed dmg as well as the dmg done by your pet will not break nerve.

So you're assuming I run healing? How many NS/DS templates are out there? They all don't require healing/anatomy :(

Right on....good PVPers on dexxers don't need bandies for healing. Use the skills elsewhere and utilize other methods for healing

Yes that is my bokuto. Yes I was using focus attack. Yes I did kill your alliance mate. Yes I saw your alliance mate sitting in luna so I used focus attack in hopes he would start calling me a cheater while I was working off counts. Yes I will sell the bokuto for 20 bizillion gp.

why is there a post by a person being fooled by focus attack at least once every single week?

A Bokuto is a 2 Second weapon..

A Two Second weapon can be swung at Max with 20 SSI and 30 Stam (I believe)

Using a Bokuto generally means 120 Bushy..

120 Bush means Huge heals with Confidence..

Conficende with 50 EP Pots is More than enough heals when combined with Stealth or Other (Non Anat/Heal) Skills.

A Bokuto also has Fient, In Non Group Situations a Dexxer with Fient / Confidence / 50 EP should never die 1v1 to *Anything* other than an extremely lucky Archer Based template.
