Just got my first numbered weight message ever during an appraisal -
The rusted red khuj is made with metal.
You estimate that the rusted red khuj weighs around 55 stones.
You are certain that the rusted red khuj is worth exactly 10000 lirums.
Roundtime: 8 seconds.
Appraisal is 155

>>As a barbarian, I have 148 ranks in appraisal, but a scant 80some ranks with halberds. I hope to gain the ability to judge weapon weights soon.
I started getting weapons weights pretty consistently around a combined 300 ranks of weapon + appraisal.

>>I have appraisal+weapon = 453 ranks and don't get weight. My weapon skill is higher then my appraisal skill.
Really? How high is your appraisal skill? Is it less then 100?
I suppose you need a total approaching 300 and then maybe a minimum skill in appraisal too.

Just to narrow it down further, it is less than 465 combined.
Also I get exact weighs on a 447 combined, but it's a bastie so I don't know which skill is checked or if both are checked in that appraisal.
This is using appraise careful, with appraisal ranks far outweighing weapon ranks in all tests.

>>169 appraisal, 167 ME. Hardly even even get guesses at weights. So 300 is not accurate.
Teeklin raises a very good point. Are you using appraise careful? I am seeing weights (not appraising as certains, though it is often right since I know how much my weapons weigh) with careful appraisal at 300 ranks with some frequency. At 465 I would think you would be seeing them all the time.

For weights I do not think weapon skill is a factor at all. I think it is purely on appraisal skill for weight.
For example:
My combined HE/App is close to 600, I do not get certain weights, it takes a lot of tries to even get confident.
My combined Light Blunt/App is about half that, a bit more then 300. I see the same exact kinds of results as I do with HE.
The only way this could make sense is if weight uses only appraisal skill as a factor.

>>So then for reference my appraisal is 375 and I'm using careful. About the only way to test for sure is if someone with 600 in a weapon but only 250 in appraisal tried and didn't get weights.
Sigh... so far off yet, those 600 ranks.

As an aside,
You are certain that the throwing hammer weighs exactly 40 stones.
I have 0 ranks in Heavy Blunt and was able to get this appraisal, leading me to believe that it is based solely off of appraisal and whatever attribute modifier appraisal goes off of.
