Cant see the pic. But PM @Donavon for build.

 

[Yadd of Legends]

Can you see it now?
Also, the question "what would you do with this" also is asking if you would train it all - other options could simply be leave it in the stables or sell it - just wondering what others might do with it

 

[Pawain]

Me. I would train it and build it by tomorrow.

But that's what I do.

If you prefer gold. Sell it.

You would want to use 120 scrolls on a pet you can not get anymore. So if that does not interest you, sell it or stand by the stable and say trick over and over.

If you decide to sell it: Careful about pricing. You are looking at 250-350 M in your bank. Check for current pricing, in stratics traders forum. Dont sell it for 20 M like some noob I know (me!).
What you would do with it in terms of training will depend what you will want it for VP vs PVM. Then what encounters you are thinking about. It will be similar in points to something like a Bane Dragon (Minus the LP of the dragon). Could make it a Chiv, should have enough TP's for it, or other. Would go all the way 120 as Pawain said. You definitely want to try training in TC1 several times over befor you commit to prodo.
It is irreplaceable, forever. So careful with what you do in prodo.
Congrats for owning one!!

I have a question about the Dread Warhorse. Why would a Dread, starting at 3 slots having 530 HP and 589 STR, be worth A LOT more gold than a PP Nightmare,with say, 310 HP and 525 STR, but starting at a 2 slot? The fact they are no longer available also applies to a PP Nightmare. Is it just the fact that they blow black smoke out of their butts when you says "trick" ? Does the differing damage types make a difference,or am I missing something? I am looking at them from a "training points available" standpoint, and it seems to me that the 1 extra round of training greatly outweighs the 220 +/- starting HP's and 60 +/- STR of the Dread.

It's basically the perceived rarity of the dreadmare. It looks different, darker. It does its trick. Prepatch nightmares, with the exception of the very old nightmares, look just like any nightmare you can train today. Some people just don't value nightmares as everyone used to have them and they aren't CU.

Dreadmares do get access to the poison AOE abilities without specing into poison, so they can have that poison aoe without losing basic magery, but over all prepatch nightmares have the higher intensity.

Actually, its more of an explosion that looks like a fiery bomb - but maybe that's just EC

Only if they ate spicy food the day before!!!! ROFL

I honestly never do this, but now I felt I had to document the graphics

I always thought the "trick" graphic looked like me after bad burritos.....

In CC its is a puff of black smoke that covers the same area. I think the CC effect is better since they are black also.

What skin is that? Where to get it? Looks like the old diablo mana and health balls.

That’s one of the EC Pinco’s options - does look like Diablo
