>>Whats so special about the belt knife that its become the #1 brand name in dark ritual sacrifices?


I believe the intention of belt knives were so that it wouldn't be so obvious, when people go around accusing everyone carrying a belt knife though...

<<Don't be an emomancer by wearing all black and perform cut yourself in public and you should be fine.

Doesnt matter if non necros can wear em and wearin one doesnt mean your a necro, it matters that your wearin one and ARE a necromancer. Remember even if you do nothing wrong and someone accuses you for giggles anyway your gona go down since they shouldnt of suspected in the first place. I never knew belt knives could be worn and used until necro's became released, ive always grabbed another blade skinned and stowed it and i intend to do the same as a necro with rituals.

Id just like to see a wider selection of blades or be givin a IG reason as to why only belt knives will work, such as coding issues of most LE's work with ritual, in which case id hope to see some merchants soon selling other wearables that arent neccisarily a "Belt knife"

Ahh, then that would be why everyones sayin go to shard.. i assumed they had been sold there for awhile

I think belt knives stand as a considerate gesture on the GMs part; there's no reason to make us put away our weapon, grab a special ritual knife, do our thing, put the knife away, and get our weapon each time we want to do something. That's just ridiculous.


I know this: if life is illusion, then I am no less an illusion, and being thus, the illusion is real to me. I live, I burn with life, I love, I slay, and am content.

I imagine you'll be able to get away with belt knives again in the absence of other fluff "soon."

I still wouldn't wear one for awhile in town.

>>Yes, because making everyone do it for the past 11+ years to learn skinning is TOTALLY different.

>>I must say that this was a LONG time coming and am very thankful for it. Between this and the ranger perk to be able to use any weapon to skin with, I am a happy skinner.

I don't think they meant to wait 11 years. I just think no one came up with the idea is all. Then one of the necro GM's was like "How can we let necros hide they are doing rituals? Hmm....belt knives for ritual...... OH SKINNING TOO."

Gonif,

Are you suggesting that a spell be written specifically to allow necromancers to move into an area protected by holy magic for the purpose of constructing a vulture heart candy trail for Khurek to follow?

I would hate to see this change if the wrong person reads this post, however, I don't see what the big deal about worn belt knives are. If your a smart Necro like myself then you probably already realized the ritual can be used by either a: an oben(because that's what I have in my right hand) or b: a belt knife INSIDE your pack. Either way I have a knife, no one knows I have a knife, and I can still use said knife when performing rituals in the hunting grounds. necromancy FTW.

>They used to be great for skinning, at least in terms of teaching...but that has gone by the wayside. I imagine I'm the only one disappointed by that...

I was fond of it at the time, but I prefer making triple the coin and still locking.
