There is a nice mace in SoA, not particularly nice for fighting 'normal' creatures, but for fighting the undead ;) .

And what do you mean there's a nice hammer in ToB? it's AWESOME!!! [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Moosy, the hammer I was referring to is in the sewers ;)

A halberd is a combination between a spear and an axe, actually. Slash, thrust, chop, etc.

Ow, did I forget that nice hammer that you can throw at our enemies? You don't even have to be in the heat of fight with this baby. I'm sure all giant-kin really dislike the hammer, which makes it more appealing to us ;)

IMHO this game should have a little more Axes and Hammers.(SoA) I mean there is a lot of very good Long Swords for example(maybe too many?) so a little more Axes would be fine. Of course there is always IEEP but it must be balanced.

What I desire to see in the future is a returnable +4 enchanted Dart. Everytime I try to think of a template, it gets shot down for being too powerful. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Axes ? Not enough Axes you say ? Are you saying that there are not enogh good Axes in SOA ? Grrr...

You have Stonefire +3 and Frostreaver +3 who both do elemental damage !
How many long swords in SOA do that ?

There is also Azuredge +3, Hangard's axe +2 and Rifthome axe +3 who are all ranged weapons which add STR bonus !!!
How many throwing long swords are there in SOA ?

You can even get Axe of Unyielding +3 in WK ...

How many long swords +3 are there in SOA ?
One you can buy (with NO useful special stuff), one you can get only after the Underdark and one for 0.0001 % of the game.

Grr... ;)

Gee sorry...
YOu forgot Hrothgar`s Axe +3. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Pyrenk 08-27-2003 09:18 AM

And K'logorath, the best ranged axe around :D

Dundee, can't you just have an upgrade for the Crimson Dart that makes it +4 instead of +3, and have it do bleeding damage? +4 by itself can't be too powerful, though.

<font color="orange">Actually, maybe not. Are you referring to the Ashideena? That was what I was trying to refer to, but maybe I wasn't be very specific. </font> [img]smile.gif[/img]

Pyrenk 08-27-2003 02:35 PM

Ashideena is pretty good, too, but I'm talking about the other hammer. You know which one...it makes one of your favorite weapons ;)

ADD] They are both electric-based, and both well-hidden in the sewers. One, however, has more intelligent (wink wink) guardians, and that's the one that I mentioned.
