Enruned blued-steel flamberge

Four feet of precision wavy blade, blued until it resembles watered silk, has been acid-etched with intricate runic patterns running from blade tip to thrak hide-wrapped ricassa. A damascened gold and silver hilt and quillion add another two feet to the length of this already imposing weapon. Impressed within the pommel lies an onyx intaglio of a rampant firecat. You also notice a small enchanter's glyph.

+12 enchanted, true flamberge base (WBS 7) and "expert" weighted

I've enjoyed the hell out of this thing so far, but I'm starting to dislike the low enchant (my warrior is a gnome) and the heavy weight (see previous excuse)... plus it's 6 feet of weapon on a 3 foot gnome, and I've always kind of envisioned my gnome to be a dual wielding warrior, so I figured I'd see if there was any trade interest in it.

Willing to trade it for:
A decent edged weapon (or a pair of them ideally)
A two hander or pole arm with a higher enchant
Full plate armor

PM for/with details or questions

Someone asked, so I figured I would post it here... assessment under the new system:

You assess the flamberge for structural weaknesses and strengths.

Careful examination indicates the blued-steel flamberge has a base strength of 95 and a base durability of 240. You also determine the current integrity of the blued-steel flamberge to be at 100.0%.

Checking out the flamberge, it looks like it is expertly weighted to inflict more critical blows than a normal weapon of its type.

Roundtime: 22 sec.


And some shots of it in action:

Right, but i can't edit the main heading of the post to read "expert", and it's still significantly over masterful (so still on the "claidh" scale, technically)

But yes... it's not full "claidhmore" weighted... I'm not trying to fool anyone into thinking it is.

You should buy it from ME!

I'd want 50m in cash to straight buy the weapon (since that's what I paid and how much money I would need for the replacement I have in mind)

I figured trades would be a better bet for finding what I need... the trade doesn't necessarily have to equal 50m, if it's something that suits me.

I'm mostly interested in a pair of handaxes or morning stars (something I could dual wield, so the off hand would need to be 4 pounds) but a 8x+ pole or two hander would be nice as well.

I got an Old Waraxe in my locker, it is between 6-9 ish years old, has some scripts and some weighting etc...

dual-bladed crescent waraxe

look waraxe
The curved blades of the waraxe have been etched along their length with intricate runes. The edges of the once fine blades are chipped and jagged with wear. A small sunburst pattern has been embossed upon the roa'ter skin that wraps around the short vaalin haft of the axe. You also notice a small enchanter's glyph.

touch waraxe
You lightly run your fingers along the waraxe, admiring the keen razor-sharp edge.

wave waraxe
As you slice the waraxe through the air, it emanates a deep reverberating sound.

I know it does more but im not a verb monkey, I'll fiddle with it, if your interested.
