"What up, little belfling?" Throgg encouraged. The orc death knight flexed mightily, wielding his massive sword like other men held limp noodles. "I am busy using my immense weapon as weight for better curls."
"Yeah, that's kind of what it's about, man," Lolegolas said. "What happened to Shadowmourne, exactly? You got the last shard over me, and I'd kind of like to know where the bloody axe went."
Throgg laughed. "Oh, that old thing? I replaced it with this baby from the beta. This is Kliklak's Fearsome Greatsword. Isn't it fierce? Isn't it great?"
Lolegolas took a deep breath. "Shadowmourne, man. What happened to it?"
"Oh, that old thing? I vendored it for 50 gold. This quest drop has more damage and stamina."
"But ... but ... the proc!" Lolegolas gasped in shock, as if someone had just told him that hair product could decrease the size of your pecs. "The proc was gorgeous! And the sockets!"
"Hard to manage," Throgg said. "This way, I can spam Mortal Strike all day long and not worry."
"You understand," Lolegolas said. "I'm going to kill you now."
"I understand," Throgg replied.

That's not a knife, that's a spoon.

That's not a knife. But it's not a spoon either, because there is no spoon.

@Rai,
Ah, I see you've played Knifey-Spoony before!

Hoping that's a placeholder model. I'm really rather sick of the endlessly repeated weapon and armor models you get leveling through Northrend. Hopefully Cataclysm will strike a better balance, so we don't end up with BC clown gear and don't have two dozen items all with the same model like in Wrath.
Nick S Jul 3rd 2010 12:53AM
Completely agree. Interesting item models are critical to feeling a sense of ownership in your character. At this point in the beta, luckily, it's pretty likely to be a placeholder model.

I have to agree; I've come to hate Wrath's weapon models - which look like they were hacked out of stone by a vrykul with a headache - and I've never liked this particular sword model. I am looking forward to leaving Wrath behind and getting some weapons that look like actual craftsmanship went into them.

Pretty sure it's just a placeholder ;)
Suzaku Jul 3rd 2010 3:32AM
Many, many gear models are currently placeholders. This is not at all unusual for early beta.

You have a typo on the stats- you list them as stamina and int, when theyre actually str and stamina
Allstar Jul 3rd 2010 2:26AM
Thats the joke.

My death knight doesn't get to spam Mortal Strike...

Your article says,
# 171 Stamina
# 257 Intellect
but the link shows
# 171 Strength
# 257 Stamina.
Which is correct, please?

Yeah the int confused and scared me for a bit.

Hah! I can't believe I was ever impressed by Shadowmourne.
*Several months after Cata is released*
Player:"Cool, Shadowmourne. Thats another legendary for my collection!"
Shadowmourne:"Feel privileged, mortal, as you know wield the fearsome Shadowmourne!
*Player tosses Shadowmourne into a dark corner of his bank*
Shadowmourne:"W-wait! What are you doing? Look at these stats! No other WotLK weapon has them!"
Player: "Sorry, but a green from an early quest is better than you. Your purely for bragging rights now"
Shadowmourne:"Hah! Whatever, thats fiiiiiiine. I was getting tired of being swung around anyway!"
Player:"Great! See you later"
*Player closes bank door*
Shadowmourne:"Hah, never wanted to be swung around anyway. Now for some peace... and... quiet... *sniff*"

Val'anyr: Ohhhhh, I like th way that you're forged. How about you come over here and rub your cool metal against my shaft.
Shadowmourne: Uh....no thanks....
Val'anyr: I wasn't asking. Now get your outdated ass over here! Hey Sulfuras, Thunderfury, Atiesh, Azzinoth, Thori'dal we got some fresh meat!
