I returned after 8 year break and so many things are chanced, so I need some advice.

When I logged in my 52 SK, all my weapons where gone. Actually it's not important, cause these days they don't rock anymore. Smiley: tongue

Only one of them was left - a 20/24 1h slash.
Atm I am using Intricate Defiant Trident. Is it ok or should I get something better?
2h slash? 2h blunt?
Are Blackened Acrylia Greatsword and Argent Defender any good?

What 1 handers sould I look for?
I like to keep all my weapon skills maxed and sometimes it's better to have shield up.

What (named) mobs and where drop 55-60 SK weapons?
I can't multibox, but I have my 85 necro waiting for orders Smiley: wink

.

I have been reading different forums, but some info is not updated for years and I am a little bit confused. So many questions...
Thanks in advance!

The common bazaar picks are Blade of Disruption for 1HS and Edge of Envelopment for 2HS. See https://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/item.html?item=31322 and https://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/item.html?item=30812

The 20/24 1HS you already have is probably descent for a while still too. There's one from Gates of Discord called Mace of Dark Glory that's nice in the 50s and low 60s. See http://lucy.allakhazam.com/item.html?id=68418

Might look up some mobs in Ssraeshza Temple and have your 85 necro farm them, or some easier (for the lower level req.) nameds from PoP. Seems like there are a few in Tactics and Bastion of Thunder that had some descent knight weapons for 50s levels. May need some flagging to get in those zones, though. It's 59 for BoT, and at least 59 if not higher for Tactics without flagging.

For One handers look for Shd Pal only weapons as they have a better ratio since you can't dual wield. Also, for your level range, older guides are probably fine. Not much has changed for lower levels since Omens of War or maybe DoDh. TSS had some descent 60s weapons though too.

Yther Ore.

The BoD and EoE are your best bets though, since they're tradeable and easy to get in Wall of Slaughter and/or semi-common in the bazaar. Most of the better ones I mentioned from Ssra and PoP raid mobs are all No Trade and without boxing, may have some trouble getting the lower level toon to the locations to loot.

Thank you both very much! This information is very useful Smiley: nod

I'll start in Wall of Slaughter - have'nt been there yet, so it sounds like lots of fun and good oportunity to get familiar with this zone.

Just to be clear, I meant WoS with the high level toon to farm the items. 52 is too low to venture into WoS without alot of help.
