THIS LIST IS NO LONGER ACCURATE DUE TO THE WEAPON CHANGES IN FEBRUARY 2004.

I wouldn't be surprised if much info still was valid, but far from all.


Weapons on the Discworld MUD:
This list was started in late January, 2003. I have a bonus of 235 in other.evaluating.weapons, so some judge messages may be wrong when it comes to (only) how good the weapon is. You can browse the list alphabetically or use "find in page" (in your browser) to find a certain weapon. If you discover an error, please let me know and if possible lend/send me the weapon!

Thanks to Aifur, Aiur, Augusta, Baldarov, Bremen, Ekko, Emrys, Faux, Janet, Jevan, Kitiana, Langrisser, Lyssa, MarcoBorsato, Mysteek, Ohubohu, Rodimus, Rondros, Tharrick and anyone I've forgot for lending me weapons or giving other help with the list. Special thanks to Sekiri for letting me steal his wand/staff info ;-)

So far there should be 217 weapons on the list:

A-F - G-N - O-S - T-Z - Info (Various info on weapons)

Name --- The full name of the weapon
Held --- How many hands you use when you hold it automatically
Judge ---  The message I get with the judge command
Description --- What you see when you look at it
Weighs about ---  What it says when I "weigh weapon"
Where? ---  Somewhere you may get it, doesn't have to mean you can't get it elsewhere
Other info --- Special abilities, uses or requirements

Blue for blunt, pink for pierce, green for sharp, red for oddities and white for weapons that are on the way.

aikuchi dagger
1
You think that the aikuchi dagger is a good weapon that can be used to slash and stab.
A long-bladed dagger, the aikuchi is very similar in most respects to the traditional tanto. It differs mainly in its lack of a hand guard at the top of the hilt, which the tanto offers to prevent the hand from slipping forward onto the blade. Decorated with a number of tiny cream-coloured pebbles that have been crammed next to each other so closely not to leave not a single gap exposing the base material of the hilt, the handle is interrupted by a large notch at its top and has a small iron rose fused into its surface.

You think that the flying sickle is a good weapon that can be used to slice, slash and behead.
This weapon is much like a normal sickle, although slightly smaller than usual and polished to a shine not usually seen on common tools.

You think that the katar is a rather good weapon that can be used to stab.
This weapon is peculiar for two reasons. Firstly, the handle is comprised of two parallel bars connected by crosspieces, and appears to have been forged as a single piece. The handle forms a right angle to the blade, providing much more power behind a thrust. The blade is double-edged and tapers to a thin point. It has also been blackened to keep it from glinting. This is not a weapon you want to be on the wrong side of.

kodachi
1
You think that the kodachi is a very good weapon that can be used to slash and stab.
The kodachi is a very short sword, about the size of a rolled-up newspaper or a long truncheon. The tempered blade is extremely straight and sharp, and although the sword itself is short, with a skilled wielder the handling of the kodachi is so surprisingly quick that it sometimes surpasses a long sword. A simple black
hardwoord pommel wrapped in pale yellow cord finishes the deadly kodachi in subtle simplicity.

Of course, if you ever tried to eat it a good dentist would be a necessity. It has had a hole drilled in it, through which a piece of string dangles.

Info:

Damaged Weapons:
In time, with hitting and/or parrying, your weapons will take damage and the condition will be worse. Your weapons will be damaged much faster if you use them against the "wrong" opponents. Use blunt weapons for opponents that are made of stone (trolls, stone palms etc.) or has the spell CCC (stone skin) cast on them. Use axes for opponents made of wood (pine tree, oak tree, trellis etc.).

You can repair weapons in a smithy, with the command "fix" (need 10 cr.sm to learn it). The worse condition of the weapon, the greater the cost to fix it. If a weapon has taken very much damage, it might break if you try and fix it with a very low bonus.

Enchanting:
If you get a weapon enchanted, it will be "better". This means that it will be harder to use than it was before, but more powerful when you can use it well. It will also take a little longer for it to be damaged.

Fighting/parrying:
You can choose if you want to attack with just one chosen hand or with both. The same choice is there for parrying. Have a read of "help tactics" and "syntax tactics".

Held:
Using the command hold, you can hold two-handed weapons in one hand. Have a read of "help hold" and "syntax hold". The number of hands set in the tables above is what is automaticly used with just "hold <weapon>".
