Oh and by the way, there's a wind version of the weapon, the adventurer gift box. And they got to keep reindeer rider.

HEY DRAGO! THE WEAPON'S SPECIAL USES YOUR STATS!

EDIT: All bow before my off topic-ness! Quote from the DF design notes :Happy New Year!
What an amazing year! To those of you in time zones ahead of us... please post a cheer and let us know the "Y2K" did not get you*! As hour by hour we join you in 2007 this is a great time to look back and smile over the creation of our game and awesome community. Above all else today, I would like to thank you for making this such a great year. We have grown**, experienced*** and overcome**** so much that it is hard to express how much I sincerely appreciate your being a part of this amazing thing we are creating. Tonight, you will be in our wishes as we raise and toast***** our tasty glasses of non-alcoholic beverage. Happy New Year's everyone!

* You know it is still out there... waiting.... plotting and scheming its vile Y2K-ee-ness!
** 3.5 million free accounts in total <jaw drops>
*** Actually, a lot of experience -- I like farming the wars
**** Have we ever gotten to 4 stars before? Lets go for 5!
***** Does anyone else think it is weird that they would call it toasting? I mean.. I like toast... I REALLY like toast. But toast is warm, crunchy, and sometimes a bit chewy (if it has melted raisins... Mmmmmm raisins) but drinks are often.. um... not? Unless you count the rainbow drinks from my favorite Vietnamese restaurant which typically layers green grass jelly, beans, crushed ice, and um... funny thing, I have no idea what else is in there. I highly suggest trying one if you never have.... and be certain to make a toast if you do!

Looking back*
If we were one of those "normal" sites we would probably talk about all the things we accomplished this year. Fortunately we will not have anything to do with that sort of stuff. But if we did we might mention things like... hmmm... lets, adding over 40 unique monsters, 70 quests, reaching 645 unique items in the database, creating Oaklore, Amityvale, Aeris Battlespire, wars and our first seasonal events. All while simultaneously creating all new (and fixing a lot of) core functionality including stats, pvp, weapon specials, pets, bringing NPCs into battle with you, scripted cutscenes, helms, capes, chain quests, random quests, scaling monsters for wars, the ability to set your starting town, save your weapon configuration, wierd things like the cordemi codex, stackable items, the item merger, a completely redone battle system. To which we all say, have fun tonight Cysero and Zhoom, you earned it! We have also amassed a stockpile of never before seen art for monsters and NPCS that is stacked so high that if we never drew another line we would be set for YEARS. Giant hulking magma creatures, brave and fierce knights, attractive and deadly femme fatales, and adorable pets that would even give Rainbow bright nightmares** will be battling on your screen soon. Oishii, Thyton, J6 and Arklen --- thank you for putting all of your creativity and skill into DragonFable! Your art and animation is what brings our world to life***. A huge thank you to the brave moderators of our forums who keep this show running 24/7. Also, great appreciation for Safiria, Nythera and our many non-online-named (actually we should run a contest for naming some of them next year) team members. Helmets off to you!

* If you looked back in a 4th dimensional dungeon you would see yourself looking back
** If you say it the other way it is not as cool "Giant hulking femme fatales, adorable knights..." See?
*** "AE - we bring good things to life!".... huh? What do you mean that jingle has already been taken? How about "Zorbak... we bring back bad things to life!"...?

Finally, we have set the stage for an epic story line that will unravel over the next year. I can promise that 2007 will bring new adventures, classes, towns, quests and more of everything you love about DragonFable now, and things that you did not know you would be getting. I should also warn those of you with those shiny amulets to be careful -- when you do ascend to becoming a DragonLord, do not let that power consume you as it will so many of the villains in our game. Power corrupts, and absolute power.... is sorta fun. With that, please be very safe and have a great time this New Years!

Thank you again and Battle on into 2007!

Items are out. Some electric spear thing (I'm probably gonna sell my Energy Master's Blade 'cuz it looks like the thing kicks the crud out of it in damage appearance), some ice armor that looks nice from the description, a snowflake-like shield, and a penguin pet. Gonna need evaluation on the items now. >.>;

[[MF]]

They are all pretty nice, (nothing beats Power Katana though, 4-37 Melee at l. 93) and IceFall has an option for 1 hit magic and 1 hit melee, or 1 hit melee (double power).

[Drago Goldenwing]

Actually, SkyScorcher beats Power Katana. PK is level scaled with no special. SkyScorcher is 5-33, 15% BTH, and the special damage is insane. Numbers given on the OAQ Forum say 570/550/100, WITH stat bonuses, and +30 BTH.

Though PK is Melee, SkyScorcher is Ranged, so there's no reason to compare the two.

Nitemare sheild+Ice Arms (75) is the best ice protection in the game (or near it o-o)
Just keep using a powerful light spell while wearing that armor, then change to an offensive aurmor (if) you run out of mp. I used nmp myself.

Actually Icefall(LV 70 has 50% Ice resistance) ´has the best one.
But well, King is already gone.I just cannot be alive when being hitted by, well, huge, dexterity decrasing hits, and same time using something like Light clan spell.

[xelemental]

I used Icefall aganist Edan the Fire Dragon with Nerfkitten.

Pwnage.I just absorbed most of his power.Or blocked it with Melee 60/Ranged 37/Magic 47.
Icefall is near-uber.

[Drago Goldenwing]

Wonder how it'd do against Akriloth.

[xelemental]

I think it wouldn't be so effective because Akriloth hits you with that fire resitance about 300s with scrathces.

With his blast attack, however.......

I wrote that before the presents opened.

[gamedude]

[Micah]

But didn't they cost more than that to buy?? I am going to wait A LONG time before I sell mine. LOL I bought all three of them hehe.

[Lord Shalindar]

I got both and sold them yesterday since I saw they're price didn't raised. I couldn't wait anymore cause I needed to get back my custom weapon

[Micah]

Why didn't you put them in an inventory slot??
