Arena server for Neverwinter Nights at address eternalwar.us 5121. This PvP server based on Good vs. Evil where players start at level 7 and max at 20. NO expansion paks required. eMail rklesla@gmail.com for an account.
Sickles, Light Flails, Kamas, Handaxes need a little boost. The best handaxes are really expensive and can only be used by a dwarf, while dwarven waraxes can be used by any race and are... better quality.
Is there anything we can do to make these weapons more attractive? ( Besides putting lipstick on them. That one night... Kama was a bit sharp. )
They won't really be used on a pvp server which gives you the choice of ALL weapons. If this were campaign, you would use whatever you found to deal damage. Here, you can choose your weapon, whichever that may be.
Obvious choice would be Scimitars over sickles.
For such a lonely soul, you're having such a nice time.
But it's a martial weapon. Not every class gets that for free. The best simple weapon is morning star damage wise, but clubs have the best damage on the server. Still a 1d6 x2 20 weapon. Sickles have a chance.
and also most martial wepons have an elemental alternative at lv 7 i.e. Acerbic Dagger, Acerbic hammer. I believe the energized handaxe is a lv 8 requirement.
I already suggested that Kama's and Sicles should get up to +5. I do not believe it will be overpowering, for it's arguable that Daggers and Kukri's will still do more damage per round.
A monk with two +5 kama's sound scary, but they do less damage than fists.
Plus, if you're only going the minimum amount of monk to utalize flurry of blows with a haste item, then you're probably going to hurt yourself building that way in the end.
