Custom items

If it's no bug or an idea, but it's still MUD-related, it goes here.

Custom items

#1 Post by Baltar » Fri May 17, 2019 12:45 am

I'm wondering about which custom weapon types can be made for throwing? Does it have to be weapons already in the game designed for throwing ie. spear, dagger, axe. Or can i make a polearm or chain weapon specifically designed for throwing?

Basicly you can throw all items/weapons that are not are to heavy.
But who good it can be thrown and how much damage can be done.
depends on the item.
So items that are designed to be thrown like spears will have the same
ability as custom weapons.
For some weapons like axes and daggers exits specails throwing varinats,
that grant a bonus.
A custom weapom will have the same throwing-ablity like the normal
version. Wirtg some extra money it will be posisble to get a small bonus
through a special design. For more you need a magic weapon, but this
must be found.

Here is an example:
Baltar has the asral morning-star (chain) and fauchard (polearm). Those are weapons that are not really designed for throwing, I guess I could still throw them, but they may not do a very good job.

If I was to get a custom bolas or slungshot (according to wikipedia these are throwing type weapons) would they only get a minor bonus in throwing, or would they be as effective as a throwing axe or throwing knife.
