Lamiabane latent

[genome]

Ok I just tested trollbane today in besieged, latent is not on in any of the 3 besieged (trolls, undeads, mamool). It is also not on during assault, but it is on in all 3 areas mamook arrapago reef and halvung (but not the surrounding areas).

Booo!

Hey it's not my fault, take it up with SE. But really on besieged I get 700 points no matter what, latents on these are not going to matter in it unless the latent was "Lag -30". Sometimes the mob you just started meleeing will seemingly warp around disappearing and reappearing because of that. Just choosing a soft target and trying to stick to it without getting owned by lag or aoes you don't even see is hard enough, an extra latent won't matter much, you'll likely get the max 700 points no matter what if you just target the right mobs for your job.

Yea, but kill XP isn't all!
But protect astryal candysese!

Average crap gear on a Merrow Chantress right at the enterence of the reef, Conned DC @75 rdm. Thunder3 with no ranged attack weapon was 542. Thunder3 with the Lamiabane was 550, and Thunder3 with a phantom tathlum was 545.

Fucking weak, you can't even use these things for meriting in Zhayolm or Thickets. I guess good if you're meriting in Mamook, but pshh.

Well so far the winner as far as latents seems to be mamoolbane, it's in a place where people actually xp in, and it adds a well defined accuracy+6 which for jobs like monk is great for ranged (much better than the alternative offensive ranged items tiphia, rse sachet).
I am not expecting much out of the trollbane increased criticals (e.g. i think it will be barely noticeable) although i would be glad to be wrong on that, atm I am too lazy to test it, since it's a difference in 'rate' it would take a long time to test it right.

Sorry for semi-necro but, how long do the enchantments last? The VIT+10 and refresh etc... 30mins? 30sec? Thanks.

Have you tested in any dungeons besides the 3 beastmen strongholds in ToAU? Like Aydawwa Underground or a non-ToAU dungeon?

The only time it's in my INV is when I'm going to dynamis to pull as drg <.<

Yes, it doesn't work in those, only in the 3 areas.

I didn't try really using a charge because I only get 15 o.O (well i could get a new one every time with conquest points but it's never been a special enough occasion for me to use it)... I'll be interested in knowing how long the charges last too though, and how the icon for them looks like =P
