    Lute question

    I am lvl 21 and have a Lute of the Howler (Lucky). My string skill is maxed at 110 but I am only healing 11pts per tick. Is this correct? Seems kinda low. :(

    Re: Lute question

    I am not positive but i seem to remember that the increase in string percentage that the lute of howler gives is trivial, if anything at all. i think most people are after this instrument for its clickable werewolf form which in turn gives the caster 40% haste 100 to attack rating, 30 str with a 12 second casting time. unfortunatly it doesnt work until level 40. personaly i am to lazy to pull it out and wait 12 seconds for the cast, i have pretty much forgotten i even have it...along with my bag of like 10 other instruments i dont use hehe.

    Yeah percentage for howler isn't that much. The thing about it that attracts me is that it is primary hand equippable, which means you can hold this and a weapon. for lute I still gypsy princess lute. I should go and grab a combine lute as I believe it is actually a better percentage.

    Re: Lute question

    6kp is a very good price, worth the wait. like someone else mentioned, you can hold it in your primary slot and equip a sword in your secondary which is kinda cool. put it away for a while, youll be 40 before you know it. sells for 12kp on my server /shrug

    Re: Lute question

    Well, 29 now and LoTH does 14pts per tic now. Got a combine lute last night and it does the same amount. Guess I'm better off with LoTH. Thanks! :)

    Re: Lute question

    <---- turns green with jealousy at the thought of a 21 with LoTH *sigh* cant afford one - 10k on Bristlebane server. Been trying to scrounge up enough money for ages to get one. Healing is not the primary focus - the affects and the ability to equip in one hand are why this item is in such demand. Just put it in your bank and let it collect dust for the next 19 levels. It will be well worth it once you can use it at 40.

    Re: Lute question

    personally i think this lute is poiontless. i had one for a long time and never used it so i gave it away to a friend. the effect is cool but takes forever to cast and must be reapplied often. id rather have a bit less on my attack then keep switching weapons out for the lute to recast.

    Re: Lute question

    I wish I had some numbers to post on dmg output, but this lute has been great for me. I think I got it around 46 or so and I always ww up for any fights. It makes HG's drop like flies, my hits are quite a bit harder with this buff on and it lasts about a half hour. I doubt I will ever sell it. With this buff on it keeps my str maxed at 260 and my attack is 1360ish. Very nice lute! With the 40% haste from this and CoCW 36% I barely need more haste, but epic procs over it I guess. For killing HG's I can just sing more dmg songs like chants instead of trying to song haste myself!

    Re: Lute question

    Hate to be the bearer of bad news, you arent going to live for more than 3 seconds in the pits in velks at level 41...you are going to have to wait at least 10 more levels before you can even think about that.
