I've also encountered very little in the way of Katana's in my game (up to chapter six now). However, I did find one of note just the other night, though I'm not entirely sure its the one that is being mentioned. I won't spoil where I found it, but to keep Lymond's hope for a good katana in tact, I'll give its statistics. [img]smile.gif[/img]
Usuno's Blade +4
10% chance of doing 2D10 electrical damage. (save for half)
THACO +4
Speed Factor: A big zero! [img]smile.gif[/img]
Damage: 1D8+4 (not quite a D10 six, but potent enough methinks)
Although no-one in my present party use katana's, I'm sure this item shall fetch a decent price. [img]graemlins/hehe.gif[/img]
Whilst we're on the topic of weaponry and scarcity of them, I'm fascinated with the different magical axes in the game. I've had Korgan using the Frostreaver+3 with a shield now for what seems like ages without having even consider changing it for something else. He's awe inspiring enough to watch blat things as it is, but I can't help but wonder if and where a +4 axe might lie for him..
