though most people don't know this that picture is actually incorrect I've seen the sword myself on a gm and it only has 1 DMG .... so yeah lol stop drooling and realize a level 1 dagger is better xD
Ok I cannot confirm this but a good friend of mine told me on one of the servers a time back there was a bad glitch that had occurred at the NM Spook's spawn point where instead of Spook spawning the server accidentally spawned Vrtra, which proceded to decimate the inhabitants of King Ranperre's Tomb. I heard the countermeasure used to correct this was a group a GMs was gathered and they actually had to fight and kill Vrtra because of the glitch. If this is true the it would be the only documented occasion(at least that I know about) of any GM doing any sort of fighting on a Player server. If anyone can confirm this I would appreciate it, thank you.

Yes, it is true, while on google, i was looking up stuff about Vrtra, i came across pics, and the story of the incident. there was a fight, between the GM's and Vrtra. the Hacker that brought Vrtra up to Spooks spawn point was banned. while on the same site, the hacker showed pics of the conversation between him and GM that banned him.
Death Scythe+1 Dmg:98 Delay: Something around 500's lv 73 Drk Can use it 98 dmg isnt that much, ya its for lv 1 but GM's dont start out lv 1 or lvl up their char's like normal players, their charecters are programed into the game starting out high *** lv (i think its above 75 like 90 or something). So the GM's Greatsword really isnt that good because 1 dmg less and ~499 Delay less is much better then it, there are also a bunch of GS/GA's that have 85+ atk and no more then 504 Delay.
If being a GM is the same as any other game... there is no point to the equipment that GM's wear. It has nothing to do with them walking around getting aggro... GM's don't get aggro. They have commands to be invincible and invisible. I'm sure that GM's are prohibited from playing on servers they GM on. GM's will never 'use' this equipment. This sword will never swing while you see a GM in server, if you happen to see one at all. I'm guessing the only reason they have GM only items is to distinguish what type of GM they are, or for personal appearance. No one wants to look stupid in a video game, especially if it is their job....
This sword rings a bell! I read about this sword in the past. Others in my LS say this is a "fake" blog. I am going to this blog the benifit of the doubt. Here is where you can... get a hint of What this sword feels like to carry:
i find that dumb that the GM bow and arrow have lots of dmg but the GM sword has none...btw for every equipment slot there is a lvl 1 Judge's (GM) piece of armor. none of these items r useable in the game by regular users...but its jes interesting to c what the GMs wear. btw all the GM armor is jes for the ease of walking in any area in the game w/o having to worry about nething hurting them...so they can actually do their job w/e that may be. they rarely appear so they rarely use the attributes of their armor neway. but ya it's jes interesting and fun to dream about having this armor for urself O.O lol
(edit) btw i made a profile consisting of all the GM armor...if u want to take a look at it here it is... http://ffxi.allakhazam.com/profile.xml?137724
the only things that doesn't consist of r the GM fishing rod and GM bait....lol like they need to fish at all >.<
A GM is someone who works for SE, and whose job is to moniter various complaints and goings-on in game.
Becoming a GM is an easy enough process. It is simple as residing close enough to the American Headquarters (somewhere in california i think), applying, and getting hired.
OK, so maybe easy was not the right statement, but you get the picture.
Theyre GM's....theyre meant to be the highest law in the land, why would they waste time wearing stuff you or I would ;3....seriousely.
I only say this because I see alot of people complaining about how unfair the stuff they have is....but...cmon, they dont use it for anything else but looking really awesome.
Besides, as I said, theyre gms...if I had better gear than a gm...they wouldnt be much better than me would they?...do you see the police in real life have as good gear as the military?...nooo way pal..
its the same thing, ((sorry if im just being a pain, but jeeze x.x people need to stop whining...))
Why the hell have items for GM's only that are sooooooo awesome.. i mean isnt it bad enough that the majority ant afford great armour that they gotta have great armour that noone can use as GM's dont play the game as we do... what the hell is the point?
Since they r GM`s (Game Masters) dont you think they can choose there amount of accuracy? ..... lol i would......then even at lvl 1 you could prolly take even the toughest of mobs ^^
Think about it, If you cut the damage and delay into thirds, you get a weapon with DMG 33 and delay 333. Truely crap, something that bad should be released to the public as a Lv50 Sword.
Then again, using at Lv1 can be amazing, however Balista is out of the question unless your ready to kick a GM's ***.
But see, that's the beauty of it. The 100 DMG penetrates their armor a ton. Why do you think THFs have a hard time doing damage even though their dagger should atleast muster 1/3 of the damage of many 2-handed weapons. It's the fact that each hit does so much damage that it penetrates the opponents defense. If you think about it, endgame, 33 DMG - 333 delay is a crap weapon. But 100 DMG - 999 delay is very good. Plus, high delay = high TP. True, you would want a ton of ACC, but even so.
Hmm, I'm have been readin' some posts and people are sayin' it would be good at a low-level... well seeing as LV.1 is GMs maxed-out level... if they could change gear and it varied like normal playersa weapons, with the delay staying the same , at level 75 their gear would be ungodly but, as it stands they cannot and their gear does not vary. P.S. Sorry if this wasted time(i think it did but, i was just thinking that.)
