weapon discussion

Post by Aj »

Firstly, I'm tired of uniques having the only decent abilities such as lion etched dagger the only dagger
capable of blickage. I want to see the everyday player able to get their hands on a decent weapon for their
class and having a moderate chance of laying some smack down in pk. I mean come on 3 stabs to kill
someone. 3 charges to kill someone plus the timer is an hour long, are people so afraid of dying these
days we had to get rid or down anything that might get the job done?
What happened to the days of scary pk, how can we be intimidated by lithium or nicotine anymore? It
plain sucks I tell you!

Bring back 400 hp stabs, give us 300 hp charges with a 2-3 pulse timer, and for the love of god give
some active abs bashers some top end weapons, I'd love to see someone sporting a shim axe.

We need more diversity in weapons, each class of weapon should have their own unique ability such as swords,
axes, clubs bash, spears charge and/or bash. A few ideas I'd love to see imped

chains, while a scythe has nice damage and is good for smobbing it is a poor weapon for pk due to its
horrible bash, but it should not bash well if at all. scourges are bad weapons all around, terrible
dmg and weight. I'd love to see chain users be able to stand their own in pk and I am not referring to
uniques such as Akrabbims golden chain which is nice.

I'd love to see chains given a stun ability, same everything as bash but the stun would not prone the
player (no dmg modifier) making them vulnerable for 2 rounds. The stun shouldn't be stackable on top of
a bash or vice versa.

I'd also love to see disarm imped for a weapon class, now we know people would create triggers thus
making the stereotypical disarm useless but if the disarm included a round of stun people would be
vulnerable for that round, and with it being only one round the disarm rate could be set at a decent
%.

tainted needs to be brought back into the game, but should include a hard set of quest to complete in
order to create the weapon, and the weapon should not be used by humans as it was before.

humans should be able to get their hands on their own version of a tainted but the weapon should have
its own unique ablity and not the bland increased db, pb, bash, dmg. Possibly a weapon that stops all
actions by opponents on %. i.e.

a heron-marked longblade emits a violent pulse of light temporarily confusing you!

If charge timer is the same as skewer which I am sure it is. It is not long at all. It is like 5 pulses long but they pass in 3 seconds or less.
