Val'anyr, Hammer of the Ancient Kings Discovered

Why don't all you nay sayers go google what Blessing of Ancient Kings does and then see if you say that it isn't a legendary weapon. Not to mention how legendary the possiblity it would be to have multiple Val'anyr stacking Blessing of Ancient Kings in a raid.

Thunderfury, Blessed Blade of the Windseeker

Binds when picked up

Unique

One-Hand Sword

43 - 115 Damage Speed 1.90

+16 - 30 Nature Damage

(53.9 damage per second)

+5 Agility

+8 Stamina

+8 Fire Resistance

+9 Nature Resistance

Durability 125 / 125

Requires Level 60

Chance on hit: Blasts your enemy with lightning, dealing 300 Nature damage and then jumping to additional nearby enemies. Each jump reduces that victim's Nature resistance by 25. Affects 5 targets. Your primary target is also consumed by a cyclone, slowing its attack speed by 20% for 12 sec.

What about those stats? compared to

Crul'shorukh, Edge of Chaos

Binds when picked up

Unique-Equipped

One-Hand Axe

101 - 188 Damage Speed 2.30

(62.8 damage per second)

+13 Stamina

Durability 105 / 105

Requires Level 60

Equip: Increases attack power by 36.

They are worthless. The dps is even lower, and thats an epic just one tier higher...

What made Thunderfury better?

The procc...

The procc was so awesome that it gave thunderfury about 80-90 dps, it slowed the attackspeed of enemies, like a thunderclap.

Same for this one, the procc is and will always be

Awesome.

Basically as long as you heal your target (i.e not overhealing) you have 10% chance to procc a buff on yourself, you can heal your target from 29,999 - 30.000 and you have 10% chance on buff, if you only overheal you wont have a chance on buff.

When you have the buff, ALL of your heals, including overheals will count for the bubble, the bubble ALSO stacks.

This means you get 15% additional healing during that period.

this is DEFINATELY a legendary thats worth to get, it's not understatted, it's awesome.

Once again, A W E S O M E. stop buggering around about the stats not being 700+ spellpower and 150 int and stam.

Dude it's usable only by pally priest druid and shaman, and u expect it to be a "big awesome 2 hander"? Priests can't even USE two handers...

They made this only so the healer shortage would cease. Now the tank shortage will surge backwards.

To everyone saying it needs more Intel/Stam:

There is only 1 other 1 hander in the game with more than 50 Intel on it - and it drops in Ulduar25. Stop comparing it to 2h weapons. This is perfectly inline with a ilvl 239 Legendary.

587 SP is Over power and you say it's stats are bad ROFL.... also those who say that it needs more DPS are a bit lost.... This is a healer item....

ziongarcia — Mon, 27 Apr 2009 10:15:16 GMT

not really looks like a legendary to me... i mean cmon glaives and bow were wtfpwn when it was released... this is just... sad... only the equip bonuses seem to make it more like a legendary... but the stats nah not really... i thought it would be something like a big awesome two-hander...

tkoreaper: Do you have a source for that comment?

armeenop11 — Mon, 27 Apr 2009 00:01:32 GMT

its good but not really legendary, more of like a good epic item which would be easier to get in some cases

tkoreaper — Sun, 26 Apr 2009 18:45:28 GMT

Blizz said that there are 3 different types of this weapon.

Meatpieandwow — Sun, 26 Apr 2009 02:23:02 GMT

It needs another 100.01 dps added to it, and +30stam and int

Mds03 — Sat, 25 Apr 2009 18:09:32 GMT

Its nice. its not unique, but its main hand. its..... not what i expected thoguh

Mathirin — Sat, 25 Apr 2009 15:10:26 GMT

It's not as great as some. Just not...legendary. Epic quality legendary that's as difficult as it is to get? Nah, I'll be ok.
