Wakizashi

Master Dwarf,

My name is Skywatcher Stormcaller. You have met my aunt I believe. I will gladly feed your appetite for knucklebones, and would like to commission twin blades from you. I am looking for blades similar to the wakizashi (found on the Adventurers Guild clerk). I would like the blades (Called Glamdring and Orchrist) to be +3 Enhancement, 3 Vamp Regen, Orcfell (+2d6 vs orcs if possible, if not, let me know what you can do).

Please let me know what raw materials you would need and how much your commission would be (I would like the "divine" appearance for the blades if possible.)

Can do all but the Orcfell business.

Can give it extra damage against everything, instead.

2d6 is a lot, it will cost ye.... might be more or less depending on what kind of damage ye want it ter be.

Hmm, 2d6 against everything is probably too much, would slap me around, could we do 2d6 pierceing on Biter and 2d6 bludgeoning on Beater vs Orcs and half-orcs? (I will have to check to see which one is Biter and which one is Beater)

That would keep the vision I have for the weapons intact (I want to see the orcs running away shouting BITER! BEATER! Run for your lives! Everytime they see Skywatcher coming!

If Biter and Beater are pre-existing items, then its no problem.

There is no ption currently to give damage, enhancement, or AC bonuses against specific alignments or races.

No, they aren't in game, I wonder if would let me have 2d4 pierceing and bludgeoning against everything instead?

OK, back into character.

Master Dwarf, what is your price and component list for a matched set of wakizashi, +3 enhancement, Vamp. Regen 3, 2d4 damage piercing on Orchrist and 2d4 blunt on Glamdring? With perhaps a nice divine appearance?

What yer askin... aint gonna be easy.

I be needin a whole sack of stuff... for each one...

For each blade, I'd drop the rubies and go for 30 Blood of Magic stones (what would be needed for a PC spellcaster to put a +3 enchancement on a sword), and add two vampire fangs (for the vampiric regeneration).

Not at this time. There is a generic one in the palette with a gp value of 20 (it's really just a short sword with a different appearance)... at the bottom of Items > Custom > Weapons > Short Swords.

Can't I get +3 for 18 at the forge? and +4 for 32? Or am I misremembering?

The forge has always been 10 BoM for a +1, 20 for a +2, etc. But, just like the new system, the number of stones needed stacks...
to go from normal (or any other bonus) to +1, it's 10 stones
to go from normal (or any other bonus) to +2, it's 20 stones
to go from normal (or any other bonus) to +3, it's 30 stones
to go from normal (or any other bonus) to +4, it's 40 stones
to go from normal (or any other bonus) to +5, it's 50 stones
...it pays to save up and go right for +5...50 stones vs. up to 150 by going step by step. And yes, you can go take a +5 weapon to a +1 by using 10 stones...


And the forge is going to disappear soon, since PC spellcasters can now add enchancements to melee and ranged weapons, thrown weapons, gloves, armor, shields, and ammunition if they have the Enchant Arms & Armor feat. Adding enchancements don't require the item to be masterwork.

And for those interested, I'm already working on growing an item-enchanting PC.

Awww does the forge really have to go? .... It's great for those that aren't spellcasters or have any of the feats... It's limited in that it only adds bonuses (not do all the other neat stuff PIES does)... and it gives us older players something to spend all our BoM's on... what happens if we really want to upgrade the bonus of some new sword/armour and no PC spellcasters (with the correct feats) come on-line for days??... ...

Good point. Maybe it should stay...

Do we have Vampire Fangs in-game? lol

I know about the normal wakizashi... thats what I was going to have in the list, but wasnt sure if you had the more appropriate masterwork version in-game.

I know the blood of magic is supposed to be rare.... but they are *godawful* rare... to the point of it being painful... I takes over a month to get 50 playing a few hours almost *every day*... and thats even including waiting for resets and trying to snatch up the ones that are available from merchants when you happen to be lucky enough to be online at the right time. 30 is a little easier... but... still... ugh...

I'll increase the percentage change for BoM drops.

Vampire fangs...you get them by killing vampires (not the PC version!) after turning on the small item collecting option.

The PC versions are very happy that their fangs are not useful for enchanting.

Hehe... shameless plug for my Artificer semi-class idea....

It would allow PC spellcasters to be able to help others with access to PIES, without
sacrificing too much of their combat related feats... they wouldn't be able to get
another semi-class, which is a trade-off in itself... at least until the reincarnate
option becomes a reality.

What are BoM's anyways? Hearing how rare they are, I may just give up on the idea of enhancing my bastard sword... At least that bit of it.

BoM = Blood of Magic. It's a gem type item. It's inventory icon looks like a ruby.
