Description

A round crystal ball the size of your hand, with a treacherous red glow dancing amidst dark vapors inside.

Notes

  • The glass orb itself is 99QL and is worth a lords ransom : 2.5 Gold.
  • Activation (use) starts a 20 second countdown, at the end of which a infected wound is dealt to all players and mobs within a 5x5 centred on the user, with chance to resist it completely based on soul strength. Ignores armor and can do up to 50 damage before DR.
  • Has an extremely high chance to fail upon use, if it fails it will instead kill the user unless they resist it.
  • Has a 1 hour cooldown between uses. Uses 10 charges.

Examples of use

The Orb of Doom was used twice in early April 2012 during a battle on the Elevation Server of the Epic cluster in which The Mongol Empire killed (approximately) 44 players from all other kingdoms. At this point it had a cooldown of only 10 minutes.
