Bastard sword - question on messaging 04/16/2011 09:17 AM CDT
I posted in a different topic that my cleric <prime> is getting messaging upon swapping HE to 2HE while using a bastard sword, whereas his skill in said weapon is nothing extraordinary, i'm wondering whether it might be the weapon itself, or some other spell or skill he has. My plat cleric <my tf cleric doesn't have a bastard sword> is not getting the same messaging.

The messaging is as follows:

>swap my swor
You shift your bastard sword to a heavy edged grip while quietly paying homage to the war gods.

When i Look at the sword my prime cleric has, the following is seen:

Impressed into the metal is the image of a dragon perched on a mountain, breathing fire in the shape of the initials "B.Q."


I have no idea whether i purchased this as a forged item or whether i got it at a fest.

HE, 2he skill & titles i have with my prime: <dwarf, circle 59,14 favors- damaris>

HE 56, 2he 45 <his main weapon is MB>

These're the ones I can find listed, but they don't list cleric stuff.

I was sure there was a similar list on epedia but I can't find it off hand.

<<Impressed into the metal is the image of a dragon perched on a mountain, breathing fire in the shape of the initials "B.Q.">>
That's Blazzon's maker's mark if I recall correctly.

Also are you sure both characters have the same spells up when you do the testing?

Maybe Plat didn't get the update? Clerics get a special message, and two additional depending on if you have the correct spells up.

Default: You shift your bastard sword to a heavy edged grip while quietly paying homage to the war gods.

MPP: Silver light kisses the surface of your bastard sword as you shift it to a heavy edged grip.

Cent: With one superbly balanced motion, you shift your bastard sword to a heavy edged grip in front of your heart.
