New memorable randarts

[Estie]

FA, SI and poison resistance also makes it rival a defender weapon. Yah, that´ll do.

[gglibertine]

Yeah, that'd do it. At 5 blows/round that's 250 damage vs. evil from the weapon itself, not counting any STR bonuses, crits, off-weapon damage bonuses, etc.

No added bonuses yet, but I'm only at DL15. There's a long way to go, but this should speed things up nicely. A nice longbow of power and arrows of wounding to round it out, too. Time for a deeper dive!

[Derakon]

Yeah, that'd do it. At 5 blows/round that's 250 damage vs. evil from the weapon itself, not counting any STR bonuses, crits, off-weapon damage bonuses, etc.

[gglibertine]

This'll do for my elf rogue, I guess:

[Sky]

there's also a +2 blows there from something else in your equipment, which would take the base damage under 1k.

[Estie]

Thanks for rectifying that, then. Yes, it has all the goodies except for extra blows, and it only slays (not *slays*) undead. Bummer (:

A toast on Thuringwethil, who generously donated this masterwork piece by her timely demise.

[Pete Mack]

Estie missed posting this from his recent win in the ladder. It deserves special mention. (And yes, this is V 4.1.3 randarts.) He is getting 2 extra blows off-weapon as well.

Activates for *Heal*, and it *doesn't even aggravate* is just guilding the lily.

[gglibertine]

I found an otherwise unremarkable randart yesterday that activated to restore DEX. Not really useful, but I love the increased randomness of randarts.

[Sky]

i always forgot to report that, i also have seen randarts where the activation is redundant because of a permanent power.
