Unsure of what it does yet but it's base is 6.

Where??

'Base AC 6 -2% magic. 1% ST for each plus; no penalty to Unarmed Combat. Unforgeable

Base AC 6 -2% magic. 1% ST for each plus; no penalty to Unarmed Combat. Unforgeable.

It gives 1 % st for every +. Interesting. CooperTX got one

Nicely done Nixon :-)

Mags will be happy - a helm that works with UC!

The same things happens when I try to camp too :-D

What's the BS cost to get it to +7?

Will report once some of the traffic in the Blacksmith clears out:P

Coop you can still go in and see the prices for the first 7 w/o actually getting them done :)

a question to be flamed and put in the fors:
Can those of us that lost our tsas have an opportunity to buy one at a fixed price?

No, I can't until the wait time is lower. Check what the little disclaimer says by the wait time clock. If you are unable to Blacksmith it because it's nw is too low, they won't show you the prices either.

Had to cure my curiousity

Ecthelion II
The twenty-fifth Ruling Steward of Gondor

Ecthelion II was the son of Steward Turgon, and was a wise and foresightful Man. He put his efforts into strengthening his realm against the approaching danger of Sauron, who had openly revealed himself in the last years of Turgon's Stewardship. He was aided in this work by Gandalf, and by a mysterious stranger named 'Thorongil', who was later known to be none other than Aragorn. Ecthelion was succeeded as Steward by his son Denethor II, who ruled Gondor at the time of the War of the Ring.

Ok my bad Coop

I forgot about that little bit (it happens so rarely to me)

And no, Mythanth, you can't. The TSA users were compensated for their loss :-P

" Mags will be happy - a helm that works with UC! "

Mags would be thrilled, but it seems like he can't afford to stay in the bidding war(owe $684k for MgS forging. D: ) I'll get one someday!

there is a much more notable Ecthelion than that one, MM

you mean theres another new item?

" Finally a fire drake broke the barrier and the host of Morgoth entered the square, and with them came Gothmog, Lord of the Balrogs. Ecthelion here made his final stand, and for the loss of his shield arm in the prior battle, his sword arm could not withstand Gothmog's might. His longsword at last flew from his grip, and as the balrog prepared to end his life, he drove his head forward, (which wore a sharp-spiked helm), into the beast's midsection. Both warrior and balrog fell into the fountain, its exceptionally deep basin dousing the flame of the beast and delivering its death. Likewise it took Ecthelion's life, as his armor of metal pulled him so that he sank, and in the fountain that bore his name the Lord found his end." ref: http://www.trinitycross.net/lotrgondolin/info02.html
