Trading a damage weighted weapon for a flaring weapon

[Artha]

Up for trade: double-bladed vultite broad axe. 4x, damage weighted +6.

You carefully examine the vultite broad axe and determine that the weight is about 5 pounds.

Careful examination indicates the vultite broad axe has a strength of 85 and a durability of 200. You determine the current state of the vultite broad axe to be at 100% integrity.

After a careful inspection you determine that a double-bladed vultite broad axe requires skill in edged weapons to use effectively.

It's handaxe based and has pretty decent breakage. Damage weighting is already great for ambushers, and will only be getting more valuable in GS4 due to attrition and random crits.

Trading for a weapon which is atleast 5x but has flares (not fire or cold) or a 4x weapon with plasma flares.

[StrayRogue]

You'll be lucky to trade a 4x with damage weighting for a 5x alone.

[Artha]

Pfft. This thing's easily better than a plain 5x. I'm just bored with it, don't have much coinage, and want to see how something with flares handles.

[JustMe]

4x Damage weighted weapons are very common though.

[StrayRogue]

Flares are useless for ambushing. In fact, they are detrimental for it. This may change in GS4 though.

[Reyek]

i have one that has the same description i got from Anfelt that has the weighted sancted thing going for it

[Artha]

Not being a cleric, I wouldn't know.

[IcyPoison]

It is sanctified.
