Any chance you all have this item on your list to fix? One of the few slayers related to all of Eodon and it's broke 60% of the time...

I've used it on TC1 (the gargoyle throwing weapon version) to do the Publish 92 quest chain... come to think of it I only used to speed up killing the T-Rex.

it seemed to work every hit, but the damage range was huge due to me needing to use consecrate weapon, with 70.0 chivalry. which is NOT a 100% proc to hit the weakest resist.

The velocity negates the slayer... what good is a Eodon slayer weapon, when 60% of the time the velocity hits?
There was a point (it may still be like this, not sure) but all hitspells caused the "slayer" bonus to not be applied. I Think this has been fixed, but velocity does cause it to happen still...

Normally I do not use hit-spell weapons in pvm.

Like I said.. why give us an Eodon slayer that is broke 60% of the time.

@Kyronix Mages need an Eodon slayer... Maybe transform the Eodon Tribe slayer into one? Since it is suddenly significantly less useful now that they're blue...

And shouldn't the T-Rex be vulnerable to dino slayer?

I would be very happy to get a bow for archery special moves, I find it wrong, the only Eodon slayer bow without need for 50+ Bushido or Ninjitsu skill to use special moves

This is an existing issue in the system that goes beyond just the hit slayer on this particular item (basically any hit-proc). We hope to fix it in a future publish.

How about just taking the hit velocity off this weapon? Bump up the mana leech or something. Even if its only on ones that drop going forward, at lease we could get one that works with the slayer... Would seem easier than overhauling an entire system (at least in the short term).

Edit: just wanted to add a thank you for responding! Even when we players complain, we REALLY do appreciate answers to questions.

I agree, remove it and bump up the Mana Leech would be a great improvement (oh and make it retro because I have on already ;)
