This is a bit confusing, I admit.

Flametongue is +4 when determining what it can hit. So it can hit creatures that can only be hit by +4 weapons. It does +2 damage normally, +3 vs. cold/fire, +4 vs. undead.


Daystar is +2 enchantment, +2 to hit, +2 damage. Against evil it does +4 to hit and +4 damage. Against undead it also does double damage. It also casts sunray once per day, which fries most undead. It's better overall.

Hope that all made sense.

That's what i did, but i needed something different. I tried the Tansheron bow . And I don't need another melee character when I have Korgan (extremely powerful) and Valygar.

Great portraits slackerboy, were did you download them?

Great portraits slackerboy, were did you download them?

Gargoyle 04-29-2001 08:22 PM

Well I've been reading about all these fantastic weapons you guys have been mentioning, but to be truthful I think they make the game a touch too easy at higher levels. I really have a thing for clubs and their are some great ones in BG2, CLUBS ROCK !

Time is only relevant if you have none !

slackerboy 04-29-2001 09:43 PM

memnoch yeah, i'm a bit of a pack rat. and i carry all kinds of weapons with me. i swap them out depending on the situation.

There will be a club +5 in ToB that will REALLY rock.

Will that dagger +4 lifestealer also be in throne of Bhaal?

Bristowe 04-30-2001 09:06 AM

Well, if Entreri is in ToB and is not central to the plot, i'm sure he'll find the end of my katana... http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif

Yes indeed...

Gd_00 04-30-2001 10:48 AM

Im a dwarf and i find that Crom F. is the best wep in the game
it puts yr strenght to 25, and has +5 to hit, +3 to damage & with grand mastery on hammeres it rocks, & i can wield a shield
There is no enemy it cannt hit (or better - kill http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif )

Cellestial Fury & Holy avenger are very good too,
i thing that Warblade is better then vorpal
Daystar & Blade of roses r good too
For clubs, i find that red-acid club the best (+3 dam + 3 acid dam)
Spears - definitely the impaler
Bow - Hartseaker & mana bow
short sword - Cutthroat & short sword of backstabing
axes - stonefire & frostburn

Son of A B.... you mean to tell me the flame tongue is really a +4 enchanted weapon! Dang, now I am gonna drop how I role up a fighter/thief in weapon profesions.

Anyone heard if +4 enchanted arrows will be in the ToB game? I would really, really, really, like that (along with any other archers that found out half way threw the game that they couldn't hit alot of creatures...).

Personally, what would be great is to add some decent weapons to all the weapon classes (+4 and greater for all the types, and ensure that no matter what race/class/alignment you have a choice in your style to use, it may not be the best but will get the job done).

Personal list:
Crom Faeyr- just as bad as leory brown, meaner than a junk yard dawg.
Short bow of Gesen- you can run, but you'll just die tired.
Sling of Everard- Memories of David and Goliath here.
Flail of Ages- one, two, three combination.
Lilarcor- Chatter, protects, and slashes great!
Spear of Withering- Posioin, not just for assasin http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...es/biggrin.gif
Impaler Spear- bonus damage!
Daystar- Run away undead!
Azuredge- almost makes it unfair in fights, and you can get it so early!
Wave Halbred- make em thirsty!
Belm- twice as fast!
Celestial Fury- almost a flail of the ages, and speedy!


I left of the more class specific weapons, but there are some more nice ones out there. I also didn't put in my favorites, as I don't allways use the best, I use what is fun and tailored to my characters http://www.tgeweb.com/cgi-bin/ubb/no...es/biggrin.gif

Sir Taliesin 04-30-2001 11:54 PM

I like Axes! Especially Stonefire or Frostreaver with Azuredge. The bloodyer the better. I know they are not the best weapons in the game. But thats what I like!

if you are crunchy and good with ketchup!

TheDutkanator 05-01-2001 06:23 AM

Ah...the fire and ice axes(as I call them). Very cool...and hot!
I love daystar cuz it rocks AND you can get it pretty much right away. You don't even have to fight for it!
I like dual wielding katanas. Even though they aren't the best, I've always loved those blades and always have a character that uses them.
