Sharpening Session to add +2 to your bladed weapon

[Shimeria]

You're bids for this aution is to have your own weapon sharpened before May 21st. The regulations are pasted below so make sure you have an item that meets the requirments. You will be responsible to Pay any ADDITIONAL costs for the service.
Your bid here is seperate from the merchants fees and to be paid before weapon is given to Tolemer.

PM me if you have any questions...

Thanks

You sense you have just won a raffle for "One session for weapon sharpening with Tolemer. (Disclaimer: Win MUST be redeemed by the end of the festival, May 21, 2010, will add +2 to bladed weapons. CANNOT be added to claidhmores, katanas, naginatas, or permablessed weapons. Price of the ticket does not include price of the services, which will depend on the enchant of the item).".

Winning bidder will need to be available Wednesday when this auction ends....if you don't think you can meet on Wednesday contact me before you bid with your availability. I want to have enough time to locate the merchant to get the blade sharpened.
If you're at the festival it's even better...if not hopefully you have an AIM account so I can be in contact with you during the sharpening.

Nuc 6m SOLD!

heh so the claid weighted mattock is eligible but not a claid how goofy
what a ridiculous list of limiters, names of weapons mean almost nothing, some GM is being lazy it sounds like, of course that doesnt shock me at all

[Stunseed]

A mattock has no blade to edge, goodsir.

[Mechwarrior1]

Will it work on 10x I wonder?

[Shimeria]

If it's the right blade type he didn't post that there was a restriction to a 10x weapon...

[Ardwen]

okay the claid weighted flamberge, and the disclaimer in no way says no blunt ranged or whatever weapons, hell according to that disclaimer Sorrow could be enchanted, or the chaos blade etc etc

[graysun]

I asked on the officials if there are any further limitations, but haven't gotten a response.

Am not nearly as interested if weighted/flaring weapons are disallowed.

[upperguy]

is it actual enchanting? it sounds like it may be a forging type bonus

[Ardwen]

that Disclaimer is a list of almost random weapons, why would you limit Permablessed? And Nags? People actually want enchanted Nags?

[graysun]

+2 is added to the ET bonus, not the AvD.

[Shimeria]

I appreciate the knowlede posted and if the merchant is on I will ask him about the concerns.

[graysun]

Thanks.

[Shimeria]

Since this needs to be done by the 21st, I will end it on Wednesday the 19th at 10PM Elven...Winning bidder will need to be available Wednesday when this auction ends....if you don't think you can meet on Wednesday contact me before you bid with your availability. I want to have enough time to locate the merchant to get the blade sharpened.
If you're at the festival it's even better!

Thank you,
Shimeria

Did he post a pricing chart on the service?

[Kitsun]

Don't know about anyone else but I haven't heard squat from the merchant. I assisted to get into queue but was told to wait or post on the officials. I posted this morning.

If my ideas don't work, I'd really love more than 2 hours to figure something else out.

[droit]

I'll put 1m down. I hope I don't get screwed on my +40 HCW dagger.

[graysun]

Xayle posted this about it on Saturday, in response to a question about the service.

>>It adds a +2 to AvD, correct?

Incorrect. It adds the +2 directly to the plus of the item, so the only restrictions on what can be sharpened are the ones mentioned on the raffle ticket.

That looks like a blade to me.

In mechanics terms they don't have one since they only do crush damage.

[Abilene]

Probably make you pay through the nose for it though, since the cost "depends on the enchant".

I'm also assuming this puts 10x weapons (+49 and +50, that is) weapons out of the bidding for the full +2 blading, since the system doesn't go over 50 for enchants.

[Shimeria]

I'll put 1m down. I hope I don't get screwed on my +40 HCW dagger.

Screwed on the cost by the merchant or me?

[Inspire]

2m

[kookiegod]

3m

By either the merchant refusing it (which i now doubt) or the prohibitive cost, not you.

4m.

...or by someone outbidding you. ;)

I was wondering when the bidding was going to get real on this. Fight fight fight.

[Shimeria]

Updated bids.... If anyone is concerned I bought Nuadjha his Tonis Boots at the Ebons auction so I had tons of his coins in my account so I could win them for him.

[Izzy]

Fair point, I was just showing that a real mattock does in fact have a blade. Furthermore, it doesn't say "weapon that does slashing damage," it says "bladed weapon." One would be in the right to argue that a mattock is eligible, I think.

This calls for dueling emoticons!

:laser:

Wraithbringer reminds me of Darth Vader

[Shimeria]

Bid updated...if no other bids made by tomorrow late afternoon than auction will end early.

Thanks

[Shimeria]

I checked forum posts and no one has heard anything about restrictions...sorry I couldn't find out for the people who had questions.

Someone posted to inquire (again) about it on the Plat boards this morning.

Xynwen said she's not the GM in charge of it, but she would ask.

[Shimeria]

Thanks Graysun! I will still be ending the auction today just so I will be ready for the merchant.

[Nuc]

6 mill

[Shimeria]

Bid Updated....I'm still planning on ending this auction today.
I want to be fair to the high bidder from yesterday who might live in the Pacific time zone since he hasn't logged in yet today, so I will be ending the auction at 9:30pm Elven time tonight.

Thanks!

[Kitsun]

Just got my enchant done.

Enchanting a 3x ECW shortie to +17 = 50k

Anything complex, heavily scripted is out. No hurling bandoliers, trollbane, etc.


Xayle says, "I'll catch up with you, even if it's after the festival. Things have been...complicated...this week, so that's my fault. I'm not going to make you guys suffer for it."

Just FYI.

[Shimeria]

OK sold to Nuc 6m thanks all

[Amaron]

Thanks for the update. my 8x perfect shortsword with VHCW is getting this if I am able.

[Reltov420]

nvm

[Lucos]

Ravashaak just redeemed his win. The item is limited to 6X max. You can take a +30 bladed weapon to +32 and no higher. Tried to get a 10X taken to +52 before told of the restrictions. Got the Ripper (+25 MCW veil iron dagger) taken to +27. Love that dagger!

[Wrathbringer]

Er, wait? thought we were waiting till 9:30? I've got 6 minutes. ;) 6.5m

Edit: nm, my computer is an hour behind, apparently. Ah well.

[Lucos]

Neg Rep - Of course you can't take a +50 weapon to +52... that's not just restrictions of the raffle, but restrictions of the system, dipshit.

FYI, the "system" allows the GMs to enchant a weapon to any level. I asked Paul awhile back and he said he had NPCs running around with +2500 weapons. You never know until you ask. Many people thought that +50 was the max (including myself) when I won the auction for the +10 TD at CCF. It was asked if it could be added to a +50 shield, and the answer was yes, which shocked a lot of long-time players.

So, as a word of advice. It never hurts to ask.

PS to the neg-repper - that is why your gear sucks because you assume to know it all.

[Kitsun]

The trollbanes were flaring up to +55.

[Lucos]

Neg Rep - Loool and your gear is good because you know GMs, and buy items for dollars



Like I haven't heard that before. Same old excuse. It's never the hard work, long time playing and sheer luck that gets the good stuff...it's always buying things for RL cash or being a GM's pet.

But to appease your curiosity and to be transparent...

Items I have purchased for RL cash:
1. A set of 7X HCP plate from Ciston back in 2004 I think.
2. A 8X falchion and 5X HDP full plate...because it was so cheap I couldn't pass it up.
3. I went in with a friend for some silver...can't remember how much, but it was like 25m or so. Was awhile back.

Items I have received from a GM:
None. In fact, I have had a few taken away due to them coming into my possession and me knowing they were illegal in some way. Main one that comes to mind was a kopesh that was 4X but could be ebladed to 8X.

Most of my stuff came from a few DragonBones jackpots, hitting some nice raffles and turning the item over for things I wanted, hunting like a madman for silvers and never spending my silvers on crap I didn't need.

Updated bids.... If anyone is concerned I bought Nuadjha his Tonis Boots at the Ebons auction so I had tons of his coins in my account so I could win them for him.

Yeah, I think I handed her a 175m or something. Nice and smooth deal.
