How to upgrade from PGT?

[carych]

Well it is a sad day that my PGT is green now, and soon to be grey.  Does anyone know of any weapons that have similar effects (rune, hp heal, and/or power heal)?  Raid/single group/crafted whatever, doesn't matter, I just want to know what's out there. <div></div>

Screaming mace gives power on proc. Prismatic (so I hear /yearn) gives power period.

screaming gives a power proc and hate reduction which i dont see noticable and prismatic gives in combat regen <div></div>

Cudgel of Reflection off Vaz has decent dps for a dual wield and procs a 470hp heal.

<P>I'm a 48 guardian and still use the PGT. I dual wield it with the SSoY or the SBD.</P> <P>PGT + manastone = 2 min solo blue ^^ fights. </P> <P> </P>

Keep that PGT handy. Epic mobs have different immunities.  Some are immune to crushing, slashing or piercing.  Some can only be hit by Legendary or better weapons.  Just gotta keep a lot of stuff around in the interests of hitting certain mobs. <div></div>

Actually I'm not sure anymore.  I did a search and here's what I came up with. On 2/17, out came live update 3 saying that weapon con no longer made a difference. http://eqiiforums.station.sony.com/eq2/board/message?board.id=stat&message.id=72&query.id=0#M72 But then on 3/4, Moorgard came back and said that weapon con does make a difference. http://eqiiforums.station.sony.com/eq2/board/message?board.id=spellart&message.id=31928&query.id=0#M31928 So . . I really don't know what's the truth any more. <div></div>

<P>Keep in mind, Moorgard is a PR guy, not a developer or programmer.  He doesn't design to write the code.  He knows what they tell him.  We have to guess how much the devs actually tell him, how much of that he understands, and and how much of what is left that he actually posts.  And if something is changed, he may or may not be informed.  He has access to more info than we do, but even so, he knows what the devs think is worth telling him, or what they remember to tell him after a 36 hour programming binge running only on coco crispies and jolt cola.  (I am a programmer as well, and I can say from experience that jolt will help you write working code, but lord help you if you need to remember what the heck you did to make it work. :smileywink: )</P>
