Coins make awesome projectiles if you leave a stack of them out in evil cloud dust. The whole stack gets covered at once, they transfer the syndrome even if they pass right through, and they weigh very little. They don't work on anything wearing clothes, however (use arrows for that).Meh, I just use swords a lot.You should try trowing copper coins, thats lots of fun.
EDIT: Nvm, they just go right trough.
So, yeah, a stack of 2000 copper coins covered in vile ash that makes you vomit blood to death is my signature weapon. Custom profession: Dark Meteorologist

Bayonetta could pull it off. But, I digress. Yeah, I thought about that, but there are much worse practical problems with this weapon than that.

I usually use iron lonwswords, but I prefer my modded fighting pick now. Probably the most OP melee weapon I've ever devised (contact area of a monomolecular slicing knife for the spike) and even silver, the worst weapon material, can punch holes right through iron helmets. Several goblins learned this the hard way.
If this is your opinion, you haven't swung around a blunt weapon made out of silver.

An adventurerer that carries a few logs around with him and throws them at enemies to kill via caber tossing. Maybe hold some of those logs in his hand to bludgeon anything that gets too close. Though to get the logs I'd either have to start in dorf mode, make a small fort near on of the human towns and chop down all the trees and abandon, or see if I can do it in Wanderer's Friend.

Man, he started keeping something in his night bag
Something he had found in the kitchen by the frying pan
he was in a new mental state
Ready to release all of the anger and pent up hate
And he swore when he came to the door
he wouldn't take it lying down like he had before
he kept the knife in the drawer with the handle sticking out
Next time he came in he chickened out
So he decided he would hide it in a place much closer
Somewhere he could grab it as soon as he approached him
Put it under the pillow and he was ready
The next time he came in he wielded it like a machete
You could tell by the way that he swung that he had practiced
Shadow stabbing in his mirror for the past six weeks
His confidence level had peaked
The first slice to the dick then he stabbed him in the cheek
And he didn't stop stabbing even when he stopped screaming
Still stabbing and sticking even when he stopped breathing
His mom ran in and she screamed in horror
As she slipped and she fell on the blood-covered floor
I need to take a break from this game....

Strap 2 weapons/shields to your back. Pick up a third and/or a fourth. Use the remove menu to remove the two items strapped to your back. You're now triple/quadruple wielding.
Strapping the third & fourth weapons to your back and picking up more adds more carnage.
This is painfully effective due to dual-wielding.

Halberd. Takes limbs off like a battleaxe, stabs through chitinous exoskeleton like a spear.
Always my favorite.
Stats compare better to a greataxe than a battleaxe, but somewhere in between there. For the things that are hard to dismember, a few thrusts should be enough to wound major organs and have them bleeding out.

Yeah, halberds definitely use the axe skill for edged attacks. I've played 90% of this adventurer with a halberd and he went from Accomplished to Grand Master axeman. It's possible that bashing uses the hammer skill though. I know that crossbows do. Most misc objects use "striking" but actually it would make sense since the attack command is "strike [enemy] with [item]" vs "bash [enemy] with pommel of [weapon]" when using a halberd, sword, bow, etc.
Post by: pisskop on October 07, 2014, 01:37:23 pm
The weapons is still a sword. Its different smashing a face with the hilt of a sword than with the pommel of a halbred or the head of a hammer. Its the same style of attack, namely aimed at causing blunt damage, but the movements and even the mental process behind using that attack would be different.I don't know why, but I love halberds.

Just for the hell of it here's my favorite halberd. I stole it from the tomb of a lawgiver of the civ neighboring mine, on the 200th anniversary of his ascension to the position. It must have been made specially for him because it's decorated with a picture of his coronation. Despite all the gems and gneiss it's conveniently light, only weighs 9 urists.

I also like tó throw water from waterskins or throwing sand, tree leaves or berries. Dwarf or elf leather earring, see my signature.
My favourite weapon is a silver whip, large contact area, heavy and blunt, in my other hand I have 5 shields they are also good for bashing.
Biting eyes or toes is also fun.
Or try to kick someone's hand then punch their foot. Bonus for spitting in their nose, it will surely confuse them.

And when spectators get angry at what he's doing, he throws severed noses at them. :D

Masterwork spiked shield ball in my left hand.
Tactics: Go apeshit crazy on them.
Also, have anyone tried to use magma as an adventurer?
Like, can I build a well over a volcano, get steel buckets and fill em up, then go around throwing lava at people? It seems practical enough for me?

In DF 2014, skulls got a bit tougher and kicks got a bit slower, so I use actual weapons.
Swords: I use these often for their versatility. You can slash, stab, and pommel strike, one of every kind of basic attack. Jack of all trades, master of none sort of thing.
Spears: I love these against all normal enemies. You just walk up and start stabbing! Each stab is likely to impale organs and break bones if you hit a small bony part, like a hand or foot. They also cause a ton of bleeding.
Warhammers: Definitely my signature. You break one bone and most creatures are down. They are the ONLY weapon for non-flesh creatures, but can slaughter fleshy ones just the same. Also good against armored opponents, and very easy to knock someone out with but not have to kill him. Also, they just sound so cool.
Always paired with a shield and with a dagger ready to draw, these are my signatures. I also enjoy kicking and biting when I'm disarmed.

In DF 2012, I always used to go unarmed. Specifically, I went legged. I would kick everyone around in the gut until they were stuck retching and vomiting on the ground. Then, I went around kicking their skulls in one by one.
I became a vampire once, when I had highest possible strength, decided to kill beasts, such as minotaurs etc. Ended up loosing both arms. Decided to kill as many civilians I could, almost kicked the head of everyone in the entire keep, was near invincible.
Edit: I am still wondering, If I carry a bucket of Lava, can I use it to throw at people?

I was going for dagger and spear to impale enemies and then slash their throats.
It wasn't very efficient, clothes deflected dagger. I'm going to try sword and spear next time. Or stun them with lash and then finish with sword.
I did the same thing. Then I realized something. Daggers are not for slashing. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dagger)
Quote
A dagger is a knife fighting weapon with a very sharp point designed or capable of being used as a thrusting or stabbing weapon.

As far as standard DF goes, I'm trying quite hard to make an adventurer who excels at kicking. Of course, the first enemy I encountered after making my first try was a werewolf... Which did not go well.

I like spears as a weapon but they're pretty much useless compared to the other weapons.
I tried using a divine metal pike against one of the vault guardian bosses, and it wasn't penetrating as well as my Iron Halberd on thrust attacks.
That was a little dissapointing. Pinnacle thrusting weapon, pinnacle metal, worse results than my thrusting-axe.
Halberds forever <3

The Scythe is a truly beautiful thing. (Note: This is for Masterwork 6.1).

scythe OP. Soldiers heroically charge me only to be decapitated mid-run.

Heavy attack scratches are quite awesome against unarmored opponents,they maim upper and lower body organs like nobody's business (apparently dwarves have Wolverine claws as nails). I also go for the throat with scratches/bites, against armored I wrestle stuff, remove weapon, break a few limbs and then go for the kill.
I also use throwing because archers.

This is how they smooth and engrave stone without tools.

I was unstoppable (mostly against rhesus macaques and wolves) until a titan exploded my weapons, along with myself, into gore.

I throw hammers.

I use the heads of mine enemies. There is something quite satisfying in fracturing a skull with a skull.

I'm thinking of picking up something more exotic though. Maybe teeth. Capybara teeth? I'll make a new post when I think something up.

I think my signature weapon might be no weapon at all. I bite and wrestle things until they die

My legendary 34.11 human peasant adventurer mastered it
He's fighting for good
My skilled 34.11 elf is learning it
He's fighting for evil
My demigod 40.xx dorf is crying with it
He's unhinged
