A white obsidian straight dagger (brand new), a medium obsidian dagger, for 7 platinum, 1 gold, 7 silver, 5 copper.

Quote:

A long, thin blade -twice the size of the hilt- has been forged from
white obsidian. A thin hand guard and a long oak hilt gives the weapon a
cross-like shape.

This push knife is a medium-sized dagger made of obsidian.

Is this intended?

Actually, I'm slightly confused. There is a type of weapon called "push knife":

HELP WEAPON wrote:

dagger
- dagger, skinning knife, tanto, hunting knife, push-knife,
- throwing dagger, sai, curved dagger, straight dagger, khukri

What's the issue, then?

[edit: ah, I see now - the "straight dagger" type is mentioned earlier. Ignore my question]

PS: Special thanks to those who are making a thread in the BUG forum decidedly UN-helpful. *smack*

Just checked the item's details - the answer is:

The two descriptive fields both contain "straight dagger", however the actual weapon-type field contains 'push-knife'.

The last line of the description for all objects is actually code-generated, rather than text from whoever wrote the description for the object. Thus, that line reveals the actual weapon-type value that is in use 'behind-the-scenes', as it were.

Only the original builder can comment whether the difference was an intentional deception. Such differences are not unheard of, but rarely are they in such direct conflict.

Now that i've learned up fouth attack and eparry there, can we get a wimp on the taslamaran collegium trainers? You aren't suppose to be able to learn fourth attack and eparry for 3 gold. Beckmans prices of 9 gold are far more legit for some of the most advance combat abilities u can ever learn.

I am glad that you can tell me what I should and should not do. Thanks for the update.
