The Thing on Everyone's Mind

Weapons. Yesterday, the immortals introduced a brand new patch to the mud, changing almost every weapon in the game. According to Vivienne's post HERE, these are a few of the changes:

  • 2h axes- upped somewhat in ob, downed somewhat in damage
  • 2h clubs- upped a small bit in ob, damage remains similar
  • 2h longs- upped somewhat in ob, damage similar
  • Short blade damage downed/varied a little.
  • Kris damage range increased a lot.
  • 1H lblades downed slightly in damage, slightly in weight.
  • 2H defensive lblades take the general position that tridents previously had.
  • Tridents increased slightly in weight.
  • Whips and chains changed to 'flail' weapon type.
  • Downed leatherleaf staff in damage.
  • Several classes of weapons have increased variety between weapons in the class.

There are also several threads tracking the changes HERE and HERE
