Legacy Weapons
« on: January 31, 2011, 05:52:51 pm »

I remembered one time last summer when I was bored I killed half the sentient population of a world with one great axe by reclaiming the axe each time an adventurer met their untimely end.
 
Spoiler: the axe in question (click to show/hide)

I'm wondering if anyone else carried over weapons to other adventurers in a chain of carnage wreaked by a single legendary weapon. And what their record of reclaims and kills was. I can't have been the only one who's done this.

I've actually never tried doing that, but I'm sure someone has done this before.
Also, 8,000 kills? How many adventurers have you passed this thing on to?

Three I think.
I can't quite remember, I think the current one has a collapsed lung from fighting a FB. I must have been pretty careful about dying back then.

Wow, Robocorn you inspire me. I have only about 100 notable kills with my -bronze scimitar- but I shall try and sow destruction across the world! That is a record that shall be fun to try and beat.

If I did this I would probably get killed in an ambush somewhere outside of a site and never find the damn weapons again (hell, do the weapons actually even continue to exist when that happens?)

Wait, Robocorn, I am curious: How did you retrieve the axe back after an adventurer suffered an unfortunate death?

If the adventure was killed in a site, it should be somewhere in the same travel map square and in a lair should be in the exact same spot.

If you were just somewhere like in the wild, tough shit.

Yeah, like Knigel said. I think both times I died it was in the middle of a human city or goblin tower.
The challenge was just traveling back halfway across the world to whatever civilization killed me and doing a scavenger hunt for all of my weapons and armor which were now scattered around the town.

Was that the description from viewing in adventure mode? Cause I cannot find anything like that in the legends screen.
