Seaworthy Planking
 

are they still spawning or did they take them out. i been looking for them on my SK for a few days and cant find any bags on the ground. I hate to be wasting time looking for nothing, if the ninja took them out.

Back on RZ in '00/01 (forget which... when did Vel drop?), I found these during a WW raid. MQ'd the BFG quest with a guild ranger just for kicks. We tried using it in sky to jump between islands with *cough* mixed results.
And you can only imagine the havoc you can wreak on a PvP server with a weapon capable of 100' knockback.

I've noticed the knockback really sucks. Anyone have one on live and seen the BFG here in action?

That reminds me of red lesson #7

Are you looking on islands or in water? ;)

It is definitely really weak compared to live. I mostly played monk on live so didn't have one, but got launched by guildies that had one quite a few times. The knockback on p99 seems like it isn't even like 1% of the effect it had on live.

1. Planking no longer drops
2. The knockback is based on what is available in the titanium game client. I remember being launched across the zone in the planes of power expansion on Proven by Demetrium on Fennin Ro. Its more or less just an ornament on p99 and serves no real purpose I can think of.

I'm looking on islands an in water

The wiki says it still drops but I dunno if the lastest patch droped it out. I haven't had any luck finding it either but isnt common like a skinning rock. Archer's vow person got one recently i thought to.
