Rofl, "easily"? I seriously doubt that. Unless by "easily" you mean "blows up or fades 15 times in the process"

Yes, easily, I think I blew it up maybe twice out of a dozen times I enchanted it.

Also, the same thing applies to high quality weapons as to high quality magic stuff. People hoard weapons for no reason. I mean jesus, did you see the log where Halven died like yesterday? He had like 7 energy/mithril swords on him.

Yeah, thats like this one time XXXX died, he had like 7 scrolls of magma, FoD, acid blast on him.


Oh wait...There aren't even a total amount of 7 of these items, and yet there were still plenty of mithril/addy/energy swords for other players to use. The fact that he had 1 energy khopesh didn't prevent everyone else in the game from having a khopesh. How do you not understand the difference?

So, can we add a skill that allows you to scribe an energy khopesh?

Okay, an energy khopesh is like a scroll from the Iron Citadel(FoD, Magma, Acid all on one scroll). And a steel khopesh is like a tome somebody scribed for you(1 weak spell of FoD).

How does that sound?

You just said you can enchant them the same, so using your own argument that these weapons end up doing the same damage why does that matter?

Also, using my argument that they do not enchant the same, the difference in final damage is negatable compared to the difference in the Citadel scroll and the scribed one.


Why do you all keep trying to claim that Citadel scrolls are the defacto standard when considering the power of 'magic' I don't even know how to get through the Citadel, and even if I did rumors are that I would need more than just myself to get to it. Whereas if I was the right aura I could get to the energy khopesh without much of any, if any at all, harm.

Well, I think I already said it here...My idea(which I stole from Algon) for a good change is that Energy weapons/diamond/high quality weapons should do more damage than wooden/steel(tanso too)/iron(cold iron too)/wtfever ones.

I personally really, really think like "THE ENDER" should do more damage than..."a steel khopesh".

You know, I haven't been to the Iron Citadel yet.
I've been plenty of other places though, and found plenty of nice weapons that aren't hard to get. Mithril kopis, steel khopesh, serrated steel khopesh, serrated yataghan, tanso kamas, energy kamas, adamantite bspear, void spear, might as welll throw the deadheart blade in too.
I can get most of those. Solo.
I doubt I'll be going to the Iron Citadel solo anytime soon though.

I didn't see Gilgon's post, but let me state for the record that if you want different materials to do different damage, the weaker materials should be reduced, not the better materials increased.

Also, I disagree that they need to do a different amount of damage. I understand the argument, but no. The only benefit if a better material is more enchants, and doesn't get damaged as often in combat, not to mention certain things in the game are flat out immune to weapons below a certain level, and since higher quality materials start with a higher level these are needed to do any damage at all to these type of creatures. Even a fully enchanted tanso khopesh can't get to high enough level to damage them.
