Blood Pike?
« on: June 14, 2013, 09:13:23 am »

During a siege i looted a weapon named: Blood Pike. Not bloodsteel. When i looked at description, it said: This is a blood pike. It has 6 Weight and 340 Value.

I dont think a pike made out of blood is really useful?

Is there an ingame way to make screenshots?

Isn't that bloodmetal of Armok?  I thought you could only get that from a sacrifice at the temple.

The blood of our enemies is but a symbol.  The true domain of Armok is magma - mountain's blood.

There is a material called "blood" that was used in an old system to make a certain kind of enchanted arrows "blood arrows".  Not literally blood, but it would invoke a bloodcurse sydrome.  It's designed to melt at body temperature and impart a syndrome.  This is from before itemsyndrome etc. was useable for arrows. 

I think there are no reactions for it any more, but the material is still in the raws.  I doubt invaders are really supposed to be bringing it, but it is tagged [WOOD] so if you are playing one of the versions where Elves don't have mithril, I could imagine them grabbing it.  But it's a pike, so i dunno why elves would have it either.

Yeah, elves had no materials, so they took ANY material. Now they have mithril again. :)

My post still stands, blood is a relatively good weapon-grade metal.
