Epic question

[nina]

I have a level 30 cleric with an epic equipped. I havent played him because I didnt want to die and lose the ability to equip the epic again. (I like the stats... +25 wisdom and +100 mana, amongst other stats is nice.

My question is this, do the stats work with me being under 46? Is it actually worth keeping in my hand or is it counted as an empty slot at the moment?

It will behave like you don't have it equipped. You may as well log on again and get him to 46 so you don't need to worry about it.

So empty slot then? No stat bonus? Looks like I need to go shopping

Stats apply still. Dont die or unequip.

These 2 answers would seem to contradict each other, or am I misreading?

[Rararboker]

I don't know where he got his info but I had a lvl 40 rogue with epic. He couldn't use the weapon in melee but he still had all the stats from it. So I'd go with my answer.

I had 1000 mana, cast a level 1 spell worth 1 mana, was left with 749 mana...

looks like its a no go

[Rararboker]

That is weird. Well then, visually the stats apply but I guess they don't actually apply?

My info came from Haynar.

I think current code renders it as if you didnt have anything equipped, if you dont meet level requirement. I am sure it will be looked at again to make sure it behaves correctly.

That was from a little while ago. I wasn't sure on stats but I assumed those wouldn't work either. It sounds like the stats are display only.

Right! I was checking through that post and didnt see that. Perhaps I had my eyes closed.
