For those who don't know the Reference.

This is a play on Star Wars, Technological Terror Construct being the Death Star ( Vader refers to the death star as a "Technological Terror you've constructed" to Tarkin ), and "The next best thing to going to the Academy." Referring to Luke staying on another season for Uncle Owen, when His original plans were to go to, well, the Academy. As for Power Converters, Luke did have to pick some up from the Toshi Station. ( Toshley's Station in WOW, Anyone? )

Other then that, Its nothing more then a Toy Firework launcher. Enjoy those Death Star Explosions. ^.^

General: The exhaust shaft is only 2 meters wide so you'll have to use Proton Torpedoes.
Pilot: That's impossible, even for a computer!
Luke: It's not impossible. I used to bullseye womprats in my T-16 back home and they're not much bigger than 2 meters.
Pilot: ......... Hey uh... can I talk to you privately for a second?

Pilot: That was... that was unnecessary.
Luke: What's the problem?
Pilot: Well you just kinda called me out in front of everyone back there.
Luke: I was just making a point.
Pilot: I know, I know but... you like just kinda sandbagged me.
Luke: I sandbagged you? I sandbagged you.
Pilot: You sandbagged me. Yes. In front of all of our friends.
Luke: Well here I am trying to help you--
Pilot: You-- You know what? I don't need your kind of help... have a great assault. Jerk.

Toshley's Power Converter is "The next best thing to going to the Academy," and on use, it destroys technological terror constructs. (Actually, it launches a firework into the sky, with a 5 minute cooldown.)

If any of that sounds vaguely familiar to you, here are some relevant quotes from Star Wars - Episode IV: A New Hope to jog your memory:

"But I was going over to Tosche Station to pick up some power converters!" -- Luke Skywalker whining to his uncle Owen Lars when asked to do chores

"If these new droids do work out, I want to transmit my application to the Academy this year." -- Luke
"Harvest is when I need you the most. Only one more season... you can go to the Academy next year." -- Uncle Owen

"Don't be too proud of this technological terror you've constructed." -- Darth Vader to Admiral Motti, referring to the Death Star

Okay...enough comments and Star Wars refferences...we all know the episode....but what does the thingie actually do ? does is crack open a mechanical unit my level ?

Comentado por Allakhazam

what do I do with this?

Comentado por Allakhazam

There's even a spelling mistake in the item description: "Destoys"

They probably meant to write "Destroys" :)

Comentado por Allakhazam

So, can i "destoy" this toy?
Bank space is starting to be vital.

Comentado por Allakhazam

mmmmmmm so what actally is that "echnological horror ? That i can destroy it pwns, but i would be ven more cool if i knew what it is, and why i can do that shizzle...

Comentado por Allakhazam

This item has no practical use in game, it is purely joke.

Luke has to go to Toshi Station (Toshley's Station) to pick up a power converter. Instead of going to the academy he ends up joining the rebellion. Vader tells Tarkin that the technological terror they have constructed is insignificant to the power of the Force. Luke uses the Force to destroy the Death Star. The "firework" this item shoots off does look like the missle Luke shot into the exhaust port.

This item is just for the Star Wars fans like myself who enjoy deep references.

Comentado por Allakhazam

Toshley's Station...
Power Converters...
Going to the Academy...

"Don't be too proud of this technological terror you've constructed. The ability to destroy a planet is insignificant next to the power of the Force." -Darth Vader

This thing is extremely useful in the Tempest Keep instances. It does considerable damage to the mobs in Mechanar,

Comentado por Allakhazam

So what is this thing good for? All it does is launch a red firework every 5min. =o

Comentado por Allakhazam

But what the hell is it USED for, not the meaning :/

Comentado por Allakhazam

ok so this might be just a coincidence but my brother was fighting a fel reaver and when he started fighting it the health decline was slow and getting boring so he remebered this baby and "used" it on the fell reaver. afterwards the health decline picked up and it started to get its but kicked idk if it was a coincidence or not but hey try it with a group if you still have it and check the results for your self.

Comentado por Allakhazam

Really ppl, that item it's just a sending to Star Wars. Don't go trying to destroy anything with it... CUZ IT'S JUST FOR SHOW! Just like all in the Toshley Station... Wich looks and has mobs that are inspired from Starship Troopers by the way...

Comentado por Allakhazam

When you right click it, it shoots a red firework.

Much like Luke shot from the XWing.

Comentado por Allakhazam

Just tried it on some of the constructs in Mechanar. It seems to help increase the rate of damage.

I suspect it is something like that watch item you use in WPL to take down Anja.

Comentado por Allakhazam

Probily just some nosey little reference to Star Wars, but it might actually have some working in game point? I dont know. try it out on some mechanical creature.

The computer once beat me at chess but it was no match for me at kickboxing.

Instead of going to the academy luke got caught up in the rebellion and destroyed the death star.

Comentado por Thottbot

1) Ep 4, reference to picking up power converters from Toshi Station (Toshley).

2) Darth Vaders quote (see above)

2) Luke mentioned dreams of the acadamey, but instead blows up the death star. Next best thing!

All in all, this item does nothing... yet.

Comentado por Thottbot

Its for nothing the game is full of small fun gags and references to star wars, Doom, lord of the rings and so on

and if you tjek even more about the gnomes to be exact they have ALOT of star wars gags Exsamle

the droid 3RDO that leads you to the small place wich have a name after a place in star wars

Gnomeregan have a a npc caaled Kenobi and if you decode the binary codes in the slots in gnomeregan there also are som references "cant remember them exact"

so its all just gags

in the gnome camp they actually play a scene from starship troopers!

Comentado por Thottbot

My guess is the same as everyone elses, a cd. firework launcher, but as soon as I turn my quest in I am going to do some experienting with using this around mech. enemys.

Comentado por Thottbot

Great. Another useless item to fill my already overflowing bags.

Comentado por Thottbot

It has a 5 min cooldown, its level 108, and it works as suggested. Try using it on a Boss in Steam Vaults.

Comentado por Thottbot

we thought it might have some use on fel reavers,all i think it did was piss it off...any way we died.

Comentado por Thottbot

There's "Death's Door" just east of Toshley Station.....

Comentado por Thottbot

hunter weapon for sure

Comentado por Thottbot

Confirmed today 08/13/07. I went and picked a fight with a Fel Reaver. Used this hunk o junk and it fired off a single firework. Fel Reaver looked at me and said to me with a metallic voice, "Noob" and began to stomp me as I ran for the hills. So yeah junk.

Comentado por Thottbot

Double confirm that it doesn't do anything to fel reavers.

Comentado por Thottbot

got it yesturday after done the last quests left on blade edge montain.. kinda funny thing to have around.. but as it seems it reale useless aswell

Comentado por Thottbot

I'll try it out over the next few days - I'm thinking the reapers in Westfall, against some eng summons in duels (by helpful friends), and Gnomeregan, for starters.

If it does show any damage or effect, I'll let you all know. I wouldn't have tried it against a reaver, personally - start slow/low & work your way up, I would guess.

~D~

Comentado por Thottbot

There's also the 2nd boss in Steam Vaults or the mechanical dudes in Arcatraz. Just an idea for those wanting to further test it.

Comentado por Thottbot

If anyone srolled to the bottom, lemme save you some time. The comments here are 99% Star Wars spam. One person sugested it works on Fel Reavers, but that claim was discredited. All you have is a toy.

Comentado por Thottbot

come on people who really cares if it dont do anything... as far as im concernd its nothing... or is it ? all other stuff is useless as in a lvl or 2 you have better stuff anyway... so get this and have some fun trying to figure it out who knows what it may do could work on fel reavers as posted above ? it could be random on what it works on (one thing 1 day another thing the next) ? so get it and try it ...

Comentado por Thottbot

well since were listing all this stuff here dont forget about the nueralyzer buff that occurs everytime you enter or leave area 52 not to mention the guards where suits like MIB

Comentado por Thottbot

Speaking of... I miss my Pet Rock. Rocky, come home!

Comentado por Thottbot

I equipped this while on my talbuk mount, and my mount would float a foot above the ground while in motion! However, by the time I got back to my home city, my aunt & uncle had already been burned to skeletons...

Comentado por Thottbot

Right click on this item and it shoots off a single firework. Use it to signal a very-nearby party member :P May the force be with you.

Comentado por Thottbot

Its a firework launcher. But you will notice that the fire work looks like the deathstar explosion. Thus playing along with the Star Wars gag.

Comentado por Thottbot

Oh Jesus, I have been carrying this thing around for 6 months thinking I would need it for another quest. FU Blizzard.

Comentado por Thottbot

^^ lmao

Comentado por Thottbot

I finally took the time to check on this item on Thottbot.

Star Wars reference? Cool. It still does nothing, but now I at least know the point of it.
