<div></div><div></div> <div></div>So finally got my ebon cluster and SoT is sitting in the bank, so i'm ready to do EBBC right?.....maybe not.

<DIV>smile, i would love to see that in game pick of the ebon, you said you would post</DIV>

<div></div> <div></div>You have the Soul Harvester and the 1h Prismatic weapon? That makes no sense at all. Or am I being dumb and you're just viewing them from links? Yeah...nevermind...you can't complete prismatics until 49...ok, my dumb moment has passed. <div></div><p> <span class="time_text"></span></p><p>Message Edited by Kilopy on <span class=date_text>04-04-2005</span> <span class=time_text>01:27 PM</span>

If you don't mind please post a screen of the greatsword and if its not too much trouble a side by side with the EBBC. I've seen the EBBC, but would like a side by side comparison if you can. I'm typically not the MT in my normal guild group playing 2nd fiddle to a 49 zerker (i'm currently 45), so I believe the 2H is best for my situation. Anybody else have any input on which sword they'd go with if they could choose 1 of the 2? <div></div>

<div></div>i would kill for that Soul Harvester <img src="/smilies/8a80c6485cd926be453217d59a84a888.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /> - look at the stats and delay! I take it you got it from a master chest? Why is it NO-TRADE since it dropped from a chest? <font color="#ffff33">EDIT: Sorry missed the 'Attuned' thing <img src="/smilies/8a80c6485cd926be453217d59a84a888.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></font> Thanks for sharing... <div></div><p>Message Edited by Pheebau on <span class=date_text>04-05-2005</span> <span class=time_text>02:36 PM</span>

<P>It's no-trade because it's attuned.</P> <P>I use the PIEGS, no way am I gonna submit myself to the idiocy that is the EBBC quest for a weapon with a lower overall DPS rating when all it took was an ebon and 5min to get my PIEGS.</P> <P> </P>

[jdnoy]

I got the PIEGS and am happy with it. At some point in the future i'm sure i'll go back and do EBBC for the status considering I have SoT in bank. Thank to all that responded Skagg <div></div>
