These weapons are imbalanced. Could the code be changed so that the damage that they output is affected by armor instead of them completely ignoring your armor and in some cases dealing additional damage due to racial weaknesses.

I would agree, but I am dubious of your motives. You were just fine with it in the past. What changed your mind?

His mind was changed because his elf paladin was wtfpwnt by negative energy weapons. Simple as that.

You think? I find those weapon types to be too weak. If you have 60MP on these (energy + magic damage) weapons do no damage at all, whereas a normal adam weapon still hurts you like a [REDACTED].

I don't understand mechanics at all, but would you be including HoL in this suggested change?

I think weapons like this that exploit certain racial weaknesses are needed for the game. There is also an armor rating on items that does protect against these items and their exotic damage types. I don't know if you know that or not.

4% damage a hit is not "wtfpwnt"

I died to a group, not some guy who solo'ed me cuz he had negative energy weapons.

I have my doubts about what Salak is saying because magical weapons do a hell of a lot more damage than regular weapons unless you can reduce the damage though massive magical protection enchantments.
