40 strength and 40 agility, using xing scimitars.

Anyone suggest an ME with more Whoomph?
Not interested in rare matels etc, just bog standard steel.

Cheers,
Leo

I can make you a 67 stone scimitar. You'd get a 3/4 rt I think.
40 effective strength
1|2 1|3 3|4 4|4

67-68 49 44 39 29



A scimitar is a medium edged type weapon.

You are certain that it could do:
poor puncture damage
heavy slice damage
low impact damage

You are certain that the scimitar is dismally balanced and is reasonably suited to gaining extra attack power from your strength.

You are certain that the scimitar is moderately strong, and is in pristine condition.

The scimitar is made with metal.
The scimitar has a bit of weight to it.
You are certain that the scimitar is worth exactly 420 lirums.
Roundtime: 16 seconds.

Worrclan,

Currently I've a mid 30 some odd stone scim at p/h/l f/r.

With the impact of that 67 stone beast you mentioned being low (like mine), is there a benifit of getting a heavier blade? Will the heavier one compare as having more impact/slice?

Also, is low impact the greatest available in a scim/ME?

Thanks,

Aentori

Well, if you have the strength to get at least the 4/4, its probably worth it... Some people might have a problem with the reduced ability to hit due to the dismally balance, but once you hit its usually a good chain of hard, harder, massive hits. Also you should note, that 30 stone heavy slice and 67 stone heavy slice will compare as different, the larger weight will seem to have more slice. The larger the weight the more points is added to the range for point/edge/impact/construction/power... and makes it have less for balance.


Personally when I first used the scimitar, I thought if I could catch it up to my primary I might actually switch to it, but now with my new axe I won't ever think that.

Said more points for point to... but I'm not sure on that. Also I don't know if low impact is the most you can get, I'd assume so since it didn't naturally go up more with 67 stones of weight.

What are the stats of the new axe are you working with and did you make it? I am always looking to trade up it I can get a better weapon.

Nope, I didn't make it. Only a few of them in the realms, only as good of stats as it has in dwarven hands... and never would I trade my, dwarven tunnlers axe. Its heavy edge anyways.
