You'd think that the treasure system would give enhancements that make at least some sense, but no.

An ancient kakore runestaff




You sing to your kakore runestaff:

"Runestaff I hold in my hand
Tell me your purpose in this land."


Roundtime: 8 sec.

As you sing, you feel a faint resonating vibration from the kakore runestaff in your hand, and you learn something about it...

You sense a faint aura of magic around the kakore runestaff. From the pitch of the vibration you determine that the purpose of the runestaff is as some type of weapon.

It has a bonus of +10 from a normal runestaff, and the way it vibrates in tune with your voice tells you that it requires skill in twohanded weapons to use effectively. It also has some type of special ability, but you can't tell what yet.

The harmonics generated tell you that the runestaff does extra damage when it strikes.


BECAUSE PEOPLE REALLY SWING RUNESTAVES. Blargh.

On accident, or have you actually hit something?

They aren't the ideal weapon to be swinging.

I've used them to hunt sometimes for superfun.

Weighting is better than having a flaring runestaff I think

Flaring can atleast react on subdual strike.

Better than damage padding on shields.
