Ok so my boyfriend is nearing 80 with his sin and ive been farming his mats for hook and thorn in preparation for his hitting 80 as a gift. I was looking in the pwi calculator and it wont give me any stats for hook and thorn. So, what grade of gem do you think i should put in it for him, immac garnets? and how high is it worthing refining, i was thinking if +5 because as far as i know you can use hook and thorn WELL into your 90's

whats the damage on +5 hook and thorn anyway? stupid calculator -.-
Yeah my sig doesn't match my name...i would say im being all clever and trying to confuse people...but im really just too lazy to make a new one

    Yes, it's deff worth 2 imac's (and only costs 300 socket stones for second stocket if you get unlucky).

    Used Hook & Thorn +5 with 2 perfect garnets till 99. Awesome daggers to keep till you get either rank or nirvana daggers.

    Perfect garnets might cost more, but DEF. worth it since you keep those daggers for nearly 20 levels.

    Mine's refined to 2 sockets and +3 with 2 flawless garnets, and I'm still using them.

    Once I hit 100, I'll be selling them for a good price, get the mats for a **** pair to begin saving up for nirvy dags. I'll be using the rank daggers once i hit 100.

    A bunch of people have told me perfect water shards when i asked in wc...is that better? I mean he never pvps and doesn't have condensed thorn, so wouldn't garnets make more sense?

    I used my h&t all the way to 100, (+3 and 2 immaculates garnets) and still if I wanted aggro not even a 102 barb could take it from me. immacs are the best bang for the buck. the way I see it plus 5 them instead of wasting better stones in it. put those perfect and higher in rank or nirvy.

    after I got my rank daggers I traded my daggers for another set with 1 socket plus coin and made a profit. And like someone said its still cheaper to give it another socket add a stone and well repeat lol. h&t are very popular.

    Yup ^^

    I traded my 2 socket +3 with 2 flawless garnets in it for a 1 socket +2 with 1 flawless garnet , and 1.2m coin after I hit 100.

    I used the extra 1.2m to buy some more mats, and decomped the crappier H&T to get up to nirvana dags :D

    It was a great idea because I'd be decomping a H&T in the end, so why not give mine for a crappier one plus coin.

    Best daggers until 100 short of Hitman Legend. Shard them as best as you can afford. (And I'm still annoyed that I got really drunk and gave mine away for free to a friend; they were +5 and had two perfect garnets in them...)

    Correcting you LShattered.

    They are untradable yes, but they are the sage daggers you get from trading 1 of each sign (strength/dexterity/courage/bravery/endurance/speed/wisdom) to the Sage NPC in the main cities, and in the middle area of Archosaur.

    They are expensive, but are better than H&T by a lot.

    I have always referred to them as rank 6 daggers because you need 35k rep for themb:surrender...i hear them referred to rank 6 daggers to so...ehh

    The cost of them outweighs what they give you though...why not just merchant the remaining 50-60mil for nirvana daggers first cast.
