Talk:Spectre scepter

Use messages:

You hold the spectre scepter aloft. It radiates a bright yellow light, and a bolt of lightning arcs towards your opponent. The shockwave throws he to the ground, causing 9 damage.

You hold the spectre scepter aloft. It radiates a bright red light, and a gout of flame blasts out of it, roasting your opponent for 9 damage. (this was hot damage)

You hold the spectre scepter aloft. It radiates a bright blue light, and an ethereal mist pours out of it. You gain 4 hit points.

You hold the spectre scepter aloft. It radiates a bright green light, and vines shoot out of it, entangling your opponent.

What do the entangling vines do? I've had no special messages from my opponents about this effect & I do believe that I have been hit in the same turn as it is used. --Xeno The Morph 07:55, 30 June 2007 (CDT)

Probably a deleveller, the kite also entagles the enemy and that decreases monster level, so it's possible, I can confirm it doesn't prevent movement though. --Zay 08:04, 30 June 2007 (CDT)

I have two of these but cant figure out how to get the plural message. They cannot be traded or discarded. Any ideas? --Dibbin 10:30, 11 July 2007 (CDT)

A caution about using it against a blocking monster (a la toy mercs) might be warranted, as the NS just destroyed one for a HCO clannie. --Dannyboy 18:58, 21 July 2007 (CDT)

Try DCing(display case) them or closet them in your camp ground?-Jizwink

Useless?

Does this item have a useful use at all? From what I can see it does hardly any damage and deleveling is seldom useful, at least from my point of view. --Winterbay 05:29, 25 July 2007 (CDT)

• I find it useful to stasis when fighting the Gremlins in the level 12 quest. I funksling it with the magnet. --Tripwood 01:37, 4 August 2007 (CDT)
• I used it to avoid killing hellseal pups so they could cry for their mothers. Not very useful, but it's something. NaryaTheGreat 03:34, 20 November 2011 (CET)

Testing deleveling with an item that kills your opponent half the time sucks, and it delevels by 1-3 ML. --TechSmurf 01:27, 20 October 2007 (CDT)

Has Jick ever said on radio if there is no trophy associated with doing something with a specter sceptre (or sceptres)? I just tested "funkslinging them and getting pairs of all 4 kinds of messages" -- i.e. two fire, two lightning, two vines, and two mists -- but to no avail. Still, given their relative uselessness when they drop (much like the Handful of Confetti), it seems like there should be something associated with this item? --Glukthar 14:45, 12 June 2008 (CDT)

Trophy theories are better discussed on the Talk:Trophy page where more eyes will see them. --Club (#66669) (Talk) 16:40, 12 June 2008 (CDT)

In game plural

spectre scepter (2) is in my inventory right now. It's not a quest item--Thus it caries over per ascention. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Kza (talk • contribs) on 19:52, 4 August 2008

• that's not the plural. about the only way you can get plurals for untradeables is to smash them but these are combat items so don't smash. also, sign your posts with two hyphens and four tildes (--~~~~) like this: --Evilkolbot 15:39, 4 August 2008 (CDT)
