View Full Version : Automatic Weapon Flarer
This is a crosspost from the officials. I know some people might be interested.
The automatic flare-adding tent from a Thousand Cuts will be visiting Wehnimer's Landing for one day during the Frontier Days, probably tomorrow.
Watch for an announcement, as the tent will only be available for 24 hours. If you have objections to my putting it out tomorrow, speak now. You will only be able to flare ONE weapon per character in this 24 hour timeframe, so choose wisely.
Special thanks go to the GM who owns this for updating it and letting me bring it out. Also, huge thanks to Warden for his approvals.

...and so, the days of 10x flared stuff actually being cool have vanished. At least they wont let you flare armor and accessories.

Now to decide if I want to stop the 5x to 6x enchante on my perfect greatsword and get it flared or continue taking it up to 7x.
Decisions decisions.

I'd finish enchanting it. Weapon flaring comes and goes. 7x and perfect is more sexy than 5x and flaring.

You could flare weaponry with a higher enchant than 4x? I remember being able to flare forged weapons, definitely.

You actually think they'd let an automatic service flare 10x stuff?
I'd be surprised if it allowed anything over 5x, in all honesty.
Stanley Burrell

Yeah, I thought 4x was the limit when it was on the island, er.

...I remember there was at least a confirmation message prior to adding one of the four basic flares, or a seperate script on the NPC informing you that you were a dumb-dumb-stupid-face if you tried to flare something that had weighting/was a claidhmore/armor/other wantonly non-flare-able stuff...
So, I guess time will tell.

it's in the landing now?
Another crosspost:
It appears to be limited to 4x and below.
Sanctified weapons CAN be flared, at the alchemist's discretion. Meaning, he may refuse you, and/or charge more depending on that material and other properties.

Is this tent open now?
The original post said probably tomorrow.

Bummer, 4x and below. Nevermind.

I'm the guy who got the the ball rolling on the officials. Started asking for some flared weapons to be sold, folks chimed in that they wanted it also, and the GMs decided it would be a good idea.
With the 4x limit in place I won't be getting any weapons worked on. Hope everyone else enjoys it though.

Some of you are such opportunists it makes the cancer ward burst out in laughter.

Many different people have been asking for this to come back since 2005. How can you take credit for this?
If anything, I'd point at Belnia for asking repeatedly over the years.

Easy. I asked for it at the right time with the right GM listening. I requested it, other folks replied to my original post wanting it, then a GM replied to my post saying they liked the idea and would try to make it happen.
Guess what? One month later here it is. In this instance I did get the ball rolling.

A post saying they liked your idea, isn't the same as saying "because of your suggestion, Conlin, I will try to make it happen."
I could have emailed the GM for all you know.

I worship you Conlin, thank you for being the sole voice of reason in the face of overwhelming naivety on the boards. Only your great words could have possibly moved the heavens and earth to allow us to have flares once more.
All hail Conlin!

Hmmm. I said it would be neat if they brought back Zarg's Tavern on the officials.
Once.

~sighs~ You can flare armor with PP and such, can't you, then why not in an auto flarer? Likely cause the armor flares are a different script. Would be nice ot be able to change flares on a weapon as well....

New post from the GM says they're not limited.
For those who don't know, the auto flare adding NPC will be stationed in the tent in the Landing's Garden Niche until 10am tomorrow. He can add flares to weapons 4x and below, with some restrictions. Please see the posts in the Events, Suggestions topic for further info.
For people who are already aware of this, there is one correction to my previously stated information. Apparently by design, flares are unlimited per person, instead of one per day. So, flare away, while you still can!

Anyone know if having a sancted weapon done removes the sanct? Someone said you could have them flared, but not whether or not it remained sancted.
Mine's still sancted, unless I've picked up the wrong one.
There's no enchanters mark or anything from the process.

Wouldn't let me flare a eonake falchion, or a well-made 4x forged one - but the dagger prices are nice and cheap. The alchemist also seemed to reject weapons that were blessed.

Do you mean it wouldn't let you flare a well-made forged eonake fal?

Gotta dispel any bless or he won't touch it.
He won't do scripted items, so no Siolan daggers. :(
