New U13 Items

Then noone would use it.

The weapon is good for exactly one reason - glancing blows when used with a shield.

Its crit profile is not good enough to compete with other weapons.

Keep in mind this will come from the only free epics in the game. All in all, its not a bad weapon for someone who has limited Epic-able adventure packs, and can't find a better epic weapon to replace it. Or if you're a dwarf... cause that Dwarfy axe looks Smexy

Just wanted to pop in with my thoughts.


Epic Rakshasa Hide - Light Armor (Hide) - AC 11 (including enhancement), Max Dex 10 (including Nimbleness). +6, Rough Hide (absolutely stacking +3 AC), Heightened Awareness 4, Superior Nimbleness, Roar, Attack Bonus +2, Blue Slot. Some high ac potential. Kinda middle of the road here between this and the duelist leathers. Leathers still have a higher capable ac but these are good for someone with a bit less dex. Some sorc may use this and slot asf into it if just for the roar since they can't use the belt for it and still keep their tod set.

I would say that Epic Duelist Leather is still better than Epic Rakshasa Hide.
And thats because of the +4 Dodge Bonus which is very hard to get besides Icy Rainments.

Epic Rakshasa Hide would be for a lower Dex build and loose only 1 AC to Epic Duelist
(Edit both Equal AC due to Armor 11 vs Armor 8 assuming hitting Max Dex 10 vs 12)
Hide +3 BS vs Duelist +4 Dodge
Assuming if using Light Armor, build would have +4 Heightened Awareness already in Epic Cove Shield or LOB item.

Pally or Fighter (Monk Splash with Wis dumped or Rogue splash) AC Tank build...

Agreed.

I brought over my capped Rogue, and the Epic Duelist Leathers are much better for him his AC, and over all. Mobility actually works as well.

I also pulled this from the sealed chamber chest at the beginning of this quest.

Epic version of Fury of the Flame with look.

I pulled my Darkstorm helm from the end chest of Servants of the Overlord. And I must say, that epic Darkstorm looks nice. It has toughness.
