The Mermaid Tamer (Chaotic Vox drop)

[khaliss]

OK, I got excited cuz we got to kill one of the new world bosses and for our troubles, my monk received a new toy:

Unfortunately, when I put it on... the graphic is a plain fishing pole. Is it possible to change it to a nicer and more deserving model? I mean Lady Vox is a very hard encounter (easily on par with Sleeper)... and having a weapon drop from her that looks like a tool to catch Tilapia seems kinda out of place.

Also, +1 magic damage?? How about +5 (after all, it's a 2-hander)

[Lillu]

it's not even live lol.. patience. also, please let's not start a discussion about every drop. :p

Somehow I think that Fishing Pole model was intentional, and imho - pretty cool. Just imagine what your guildmates going to say "You brought a fishing pole to a raid?"

What make me more curious is Bard skill: (-100%)

[khaliss]

Lillu, what do you mean by it's not live? We killed her and it dropped 2 of the fishing poles late last night.

Chaos, LOL... it does seem funny to bring a fishing pole to a raid at first, but it can get old. Com'n, I like it to look pimp, that's how I roll!

[Expletus]

So is the issue that you don't like the fishing pole, or tilapia?

[ChaosSlayer]

you will look pimped, with a finishing poll
I mean who else, can say that they can kill a raid boss with nothing but a fishing pole?

Now wait till Pyro adds some Grubbs to go alone with it

[khaliss]

So is the issue that you don't like the fishing pole, or tilapia?

Haha Tilapia is nice when it's fresh But I don't fish... I go to the seafood market if I'm in the mood for Tilapia.

[Pyronost]

The fishing pole will stay, as it was very intentional lol. Ill check into her dropping two however, as that's not supposed to happen.

[khaliss]

QQ!
Haha fine, I guess we can live with the graphics Gotta give you props for the unique proc though.

What about the +1 magic damage, for a 2-hander, it's kinda negligible. Increase it a little bit maybe?

Oh, also why 2 slot 4s and not 2 slot 8s instead? LDoN/ST/PoAir weapon augs mostly type 8, right?

[Pyronost]

Magic damage will be bumped to a +5, and the tamer has a slot 4 and slot 8 already. Changes go live on next reboot.
