 | It was insane in it's original state, then nerfed a few times...and now most people who had them are on legends or ebayed, except a few. None left on fennin at all after the druzzil split.

| When... I first started playing the Mistwalker had just been nerf'd for the first time. I missed the actual reason behind its massive power. Did it have something to do with you being able to spawn multiple pets or giving the pet the weapon to then mass proc a hundred more pets? phat |

| Well... The way i remember it, it would spawn and you could then CH the pet, and buff it. This pet hit pretty fucking hard, and back in the day was about as badass as it got for pets. nerf, nerf, nerf. still something fun to play with or watch your friends duel against, the pet only hits for 1 round now and pops.

| the weapon procced a level 35 wolf pet that doubled for like 150 but only had 1 hp. It was nerfed because it was way more damaging than anything else in the game. I also heard but cannot confirm that people were PLing lowbies by bugging the pet and then killing it like a mob, so level 1 necros could kill level 35 mobs. |

| This sounds really retarded now, but back when it got nerfed the rumor was FOH had multiple rangers with massive DEX procing mistwalker on Overseer of Air ( could buff the pets up pretty nicely ) and he'd only hit the pets and ignore PCs, no idea how much truth there is to this though if at all. Maybe someone can enlighten us  |

| If I recall correctly, one of the main reasons it got nerfed, other then the fact it did sick ammounts of damage. Is because the pet itself caused an extreme ammount of aggro, and the NPC would allways go for the pet first over a PC. So, if you had enough mistwalkers to essiently keep pets up non-stop, the NPC would be to busy killing pets to put any hurt onto the players. |

| Zurren is correct. FOH figured out that a way to get past what were ubers back then in PH was to load rangers up with dex so it would proc. As I recall, FOH never actually did this. Furor just mentioned it to one of the devs as a posibility and they nerfed it. |

| The ironic thing is alot of these weapons that were removed/nerfed (Bladestorm, Nerfwalker) would suck if you brought them back today  As far as MW goes, I can't think of any left on Cazic Thule. As far as Bladestorm goes, one is left on a warrior in our guild ;p
