Basically anything which came out of Kermina val’Borda’s mouth was pure gold of RP amusement

Is that what the kids are calling it these days

March 13, 2014 at 10:04 pm #258974AnonymousInactivehow many of the cursed items were legendary in quality out of curiosity?
March 13, 2014 at 10:13 pm #258975AnonymousInactive3 Legendary, 3 Exceptional (Weapons/Shields)
March 13, 2014 at 10:34 pm #258977AnonymousInactiveis my understanding correct that every table had the chance to acquire the legendary items then….ie there was a chance for 30 “cursed” legendary items floating around out there. or was there a table limit as to what was found in the vault in which they were found in?
March 13, 2014 at 10:53 pm #258981AnonymousInactiveNot every item was available to every table, but I think there may be 2-3 of each item out there.

My understanding was that only 2 cursed items were present per table out of the six or so optitions. At least that’s how many were unleashed on my table.

March 14, 2014 at 9:36 pm #259164drafitParticipantHello,
my understanding is that it was not gonna be released for living campaign play correct
No, that is not correct.
This was a special/exclusive event for ArcaniCon. We (as in PCI) is reviewing for possible print publication, but it will probably not be “LA playable”.
March 14, 2014 at 11:05 pm #259184AnonymousInactiveI do not understand why Tyrfang is not legendary. If it carries such a curse, you would think it would at least be a better weapon than I already have. Granted it has a legendary rune on it, but that cannot be used until tier 5 so that makes it the equivalent of three fine runes. My own sword is exceptional with three fine runes on it and those ruins are a bit more useful for me.
A curse is intended to be a negative, but 12 ticks of pacifist is a negative. Does the blade need to also be a disadvantage all of the time?
Of course, I recognize that if I was a 1.5 tier character, this blade would be very powerful, but at 2.4, with the resources I have put into my own blade, it is not very impressive. Perhaps consideration should be given in the future for either some natural scaling function or perhaps a low tier and high tier version.

i realize that a cert can be put out saying whatever the writer of the mod/cert wishes and it becomes law but technically as it stands now the wielder of tyrfang should not be able to ever gain access to the legendary rune (if it has one on it), seeing as a legendary rune can only be put on a legendary item (per Fim I) i’m sure once the cert is out the appropriate rules will be spelled out for what it does and has access to and how it apples in terms of game mechanics

The discrepancy between item and rune quality was worth mentioning. It’s probably best at this point to wait until certs start being sent out before getting too concerned.

March 15, 2014 at 12:40 am #259195AnonymousInactivejeff if i had the sword i would not be so much concerned about the 12 ticks of not being able to be drawn (which appears to be a change from what is in Fim II), i’d be more concerned that a pacifist sword can’t do any form of damage to the living (Fim II) and it is envious which at the con was stated that the wielder could not use any other weapon regardless of type and that included magic (again this is different that what is described in FiM II) this was stated by matt and i believe tony as well, during alicia’s (sutuni’s) tyraid once she was told what the sword did, ..
Effect: A Pacifist shield or weapon deals no damage to a living creature that it strikes. It also refuses to allow itself to be drawn unless there is already a weapon drawn within 60 ft.
March 15, 2014 at 12:54 am #259196AnonymousInactiveI believe (and hope) that the pacifist property was toned down a bit for the Con to be a bit different (while still being functional).

March 15, 2014 at 1:13 am #259198AnonymousInactiveif thats the case then i would not say it has the pacifist flaw. but give it a name more in line with what tony had intended for it. that would prevent it from getting confused with the orginal flaw. while i know the certs are not out as of yet, if they were i think the wording “pacifist” for the sword would be confusing, seeing as its something completely different then what is in the FiM. i personally think that if the pacifist and envious flaws are gonna be used then they should be used as written with no funky interpretations added to it, thats just my opinion
john i get the feeling that you think that the flaw, as written is a bit much. is that correct?
