Posted: 09 Jan 2006 05:13 PM So far, I have been completely unable to find any better swords then a +1... Is this being worked on or am I just missing something? :) Short but to the point, I hope :) -Londo Bywater, halfling warchanter Londo's diary Definition of a warchanter: A warrior that likes to sing a rhythm so he can hit harder and more accurately.  Askew Joined: 27 Apr 2005 Total Posts: 22 Send PM   Re: Bastard Swords?

Posted: 09 Jan 2006 05:20 PM Keep looking is all I can say, there are several very nice ones IG, some more powerful than others, but definitely there are some lurking around gathering dust in the corners of Vives.

Posted: 09 Jan 2006 05:30 PM Well, alright then, was just a surprise that it's very easy to get good longswords but barely any bastard swords.

Posted: 09 Jan 2006 06:06 PM Not a surprise at all. Exotic weapons are exactly that: exotic and hard to come by. *Hides the one she's made*  Tasra www.bgmod.com Joined: 17 Jun 2003 Total Posts: 1364 Send PM   Re: Bastard Swords? Posted: 09 Jan 2006 06:25 PM Just as a thing I noticed... Why are Bastard Swords and Katanas the exact same thing? All they have is a different graphic attached to them!!! >_<  Barnas Joined: 17 Aug 2003 Total Posts: 3322 Send PM   Re: Bastard Swords?

Posted: 09 Jan 2006 06:37 PM They both weigh 10 pounds, and AFAIK, they both are considered "Large" weapon size :|  Xerah Joined: 15 Sep 2004 Total Posts: 564 Send PM   Re: Bastard Swords?

Posted: 09 Jan 2006 08:02 PM no.. a katana is definately only a medium size weapon cause my halfling weapon master uses one. but then, I think the bastard sword might be medium as well.. cause I think I recall someone with a halfling who used a bastard sword "as a Hin sized great sword" *shrugs* "I'm not closed-minded, you're just WRONG." - Bucky Katt My characters n portraits  Glor-an-Fhaidha Joined: 09 Oct 2004 Total Posts: 317 Send PM   Re: Bastard Swords? Posted: 09 Jan 2006 08:08 PM My halfings have used everything from bastard swords, battle axes, katana's, battle hammers to long swords. They're all medium.  Bolgryn Joined: 07 Nov 2004 Total Posts: 165 Send PM   Re: Bastard Swords? Posted: 09 Jan 2006 09:12 PM If you look closely there are a few differences between bastard swords and katanas; not just in weight and look. There's a handful of 'good' bastard swords out there, of course... they are few and hard to come by. My Knight is grateful for having a +3 bastard sword to his name. Look and ask around, you'll find them. In my opinion decent longswords aren't -that- common, they just appear to be because there's alot more different types available. Cheers.
