Hi All,

I lost a forged 22 stone broadsword when I died during an invasion today involving death spirits and ghouls. Would anyone have a recommendation on a good store bought HE weapon since I know i can not afford any forged ones?

Crossing broadsword. Heavier, but it gets the job done and is cheap and easy to replace.

Crossing broadswords are cheap and easy to replace. And Steel Claw broadswords seem to me a bit heavier than the Crossing broads, and more expensive- but they won't break. I used to have one and ended up giving it to someone who had lost a weapon during an invasion- but I never had to repair it while I had it.

Talk to Drevid. He enjoys replacing people's lost weapons, it seems.

I'm sure I have a forged broadsword laying around somewhere too, if you want to IM me at MizoDR I can set you up.

If you can't get a hold of Drevid, the Rippentropps can hook you up.

I never bothered to get the weight, but the broadswords that raiders drop aren't bad at all. Sometimes I use them instead of my forged weapons to train.

It was a mob joke. The Rippentrops are the Elanthian mafia.

I'm pretty sure some kind of mob has existed in DR long before the Rippentropps

:P

Back on the subject at hand. This folder is for HE postings. Rippentropps or other mob bosses using HE still might be pushing this thread.
