Guess that needs to be removed from the document???

[Gizmo]

One of my favorite changes.

Most definitely.

I hated the notion of having to get blesses or permabless shit to hunt undead.

This change allows me to actually enlarge my target hunting areas since I have no need to worry about running out of bless mid hunt and stuff.

Assuming the change also works with all hurled/ranged weaponry as well

You swing a claidhmore at a wood wight!
The claidhmore strikes true, but the wood wight shrugs off some of the damage!
AS: +543 vs DS: +138 with AvD: +31 + d100 roll: +65 = +501
... and hit for 209 points of damage!
Quick, powerful slash to the wood wight's left knee!
You hear a sound like a child weeping as a white glow separates itself from the wood wight's body and rises into the heavens.
The wood wight falls to the floor motionless.
Roundtime: 5 sec.

>symbol of blessing claidh
A wave of power flows outward from you toward your claidhmore.
A brilliant white light wraps around the claidhmore for a moment and then quickly seeps into its surface, leaving a soft white afterglow.


You swing a claidhmore at a rotting woodsman!
AS: +543 vs DS: +81 with AvD: +31 + d100 roll: +43 = +536
... and hit for 298 points of damage!
Knocked sideways several feet by blow to back.
You hear a sound like a child weeping as a white glow separates itself from the rotting woodsman's body and rises into the heavens.
The rotting woodsman shudders slightly then ceases her so called life.
Roundtime: 5 sec.



Looks like claids are back on the menu

I might have to try out the creature quests for my reduxmage since he's just hanging around Solhaven and the only creatures in his range are in Bonespear and he just swings a 7x/T3 gornar falchion. Might be nice doing some creature tasks over herb and bandits that he takes from time to time.

It really surprised me earlier when I accidentally mstriked into a sea of spectral defenders. I thought I had the best claidh in the history of GS for about five minutes!

Right? So nice. We're talking Mexican pizza nice.
