... sit down, kick back and relax, and talk about anything that doesn't belong on one of the other forums.

a tremendous sword with a uuuuuuge heron

a massive claymore engraved with herons


As far as the weight thing goes... give it some time to test it out, but I don't understand why it would weigh less than a 1h weapon. Abs is always going to be at a disadvantage against dodge, unless it can bash it. I don't think it will be OP if the damn thing can actually bash.

Those ideas are all longswords, which is what the name of the the heron marked longsword already is. Am I the only one who doesn't want heron in the name? I feel like it waters down the pimp factor of the existing herons.

Heron doesn't have to be in the name - I actually agree with your sentiment, as well.

As an aside, I'm going to begin deleting all posts whining about the stats. I know everyone has an opinion which is the only right one and I value that (the stats actually came about from player/imm discussion), but wait until its actually been played before complaining.

I think it's great. The bash did seem a bit iffy to me but it's still in trial version and I was in dodge so it'll no doubt get changed a bit. Agreed with Moric and Elodin, maybe do something without heron in the name.

@Elodin, am sorry you thought I was whining.

A heron marked greatsword.

I don't quite agree that heron shouldn't be in the name, since it is a heron after all, that's kind of the distinguishing factor. :P Don't really have any strong feelings about it though!

I mean the whole idea and hype was it was a heron for absers, else one might just introduce a new weapon in another weaponclass that might be more lacking a good weapon, read chains.

I personally think the heron should be kept, else its just a new weapon in a class that doesn't really lack rares/bashing weapons.
