Shattered Kingdoms

Yes, weapon weight affects if you can hold a weapon or not. Go cast weaken on a giant using a great-axe sometime. Weapon speed, honestly, I would think would affect parry more so than accuracy, but hey, I'm not a medieval knight or anything.

Bummppp!

So, anything being done with this? I just did a bit of sparring, with my sprite, against a merc with a cold-iron flail, and a tanso b-spear.

With the flail(which sprites are weak to) he got me to like 50% and he lost. With the b-spear(which is a -reaching- weapon, and he was up front for the sparring) he won pretty handily.


Some whole categories of subtypes just suck horribly. Flails, Maces, Staff, Polearm come to mind.

I've tried to ask if this was going to be done, but sadly I don't think its been done yet. I'm not sure if Dulrik was just busy (probably), undecided on what to do (maybe?), or still lacking enough information to decide if there is truly an issue or not (guess).

sprites are weak to iron too though, and a battle spear hurts more than a flail in the hands of a merc, especially if he was specced

Yeah, exactly...flail blunt damage AND iron....versus tanso bspear...

No, a steel flail and an iron flail do the same. Having one or both applies the penalty and penalties to weaknesses do not stack.

Yes, penalties do stack. A cold iron flail will out damage a steel flail or a cold iron flail.

Im pretty sure they do not.

I'm pretty sure Muktar needs to edit his post? lol

You are correct. Dulrik has said as much in the past.
