I paid 25k. Hope to sell it for more but till then, my anticipation of using it will be getting the better of me. I gave up getting the Federation sword in lieu of this. I hope I wasn't wrong.
Additional note: I have used this since the date of post (3/16) and I have not had it too bad with it. The additional effect rarely hits though. I would say maybe 1 in 10 or 20. The damage is never more than 9 dmg for the additional fire dmg.
i bought this sword yesterday on ah for 19k on bismark server its a really nice great sword and looks really really really really coooooool!!!! srry got out of hand >.<
Pure speculation, but I'd say this is the critical success version of an Inferno Sword. I imagine it's worth quite a bit, as crafting an Inferno Sword alone is no small, least of all inexpensive, feat.
