Question about Anomen

Ode to a Grasshopper · 07-03-2001, 04:44 AM

When Anomen upgrades to Paladin status, does he get to keep his Cleric abilities or does he lose them with the transition?

Also, is the Carmosyr (Paladin-only 2 handed sword) really as good as everyone says it is?

Carsomyr is one of the best 2 handed swords in the game, but there are quite a few other types of weapons that are better. For instance long swords. I think that the developers of this game had a thing for long swords because there seem to be a LOT more of the really strong long swords than there are any other weapon type.

BTW, WELCOME to Ironworks!

Anomen doesn't become a paladin, he stays as a cleric, BUT he becomes a member of the Order of the Radiant Heart. So yes, his cleric abilities stay with him.

I seem to recall reading somewhere that he actually became a Paladin proper, and that you were given the option to redistribute his proficiencies. I take it that that's not right, then?

I feel distinctly ripped off.

ALl that happens to anomen is he changes his name to Sir anomen, and supposedly his alignment changes to Lawful good, but that happpend not to me.

What Dramnek_uk says is all true, the sword IS that good,1d12+5 damage plus another 5 to chaotic evil creatures. 50% increase to your magic resistance and can dispel up to three times a day.

Someone mentioned the game was heavy with "powerful" long swords. However, none of them(except Daystar?) go over the +3 to hit. I'm not discrediting them, but..

Edit

The Holy Avenger rocks for paladins, and for who don't have paladins, the Warblade or the Soul Reaver aren't too shabby either. All in all, I think that the two-handed swords are the most powerful in the game even though there are less of them.
