Message: <blockquote data-quote="kreynolds" data-source="post: 140848" data-attributes="member: 2829">That was pretty much the basis of my whole argument, Shin Okada. Thanks for the input.I seem to be having a tough time communicating my argument, as it has been full of flamage. (I went back and read some of my posts and, wow, mucho flamage!) Hey, everyone has their days, and I'm surely not the only one here. Veterancy apparently allows a certain amount of free flamage in a given day. Oh well. So, to avoid being banned, I'll make an effort to avoid flaming posts like some of the ones I made on this thread. Hey, I just don't wanna have to bother changing my IP and creating a new account. There was just something about this thread that really got under my skin. My bad. Besides, I'm usually not as bad as I was yesterday, and it was reserved to this thread anyway, so my behavior isn't universal. I wouldn't wanna be flamed like that either. In fact, I received the exact same treatment when I first showed up here. Never the less, my apologies to James.Now, back to the matter at hand. My opinion on whether or not you can bust through a rock wall without breaking your warhammer is pretty much unchangeable, so I'm gonna move past that. But I do have a question to further this discussion.Does anybody know what the heck the purpose is of using a crowbar, besides the obvious benefit of leverage? (The relevance of this question will be apparent in a moment) The description of the crowbar doesn't state that you get any kind of bonus, such as circumstance or competence, when prying open a crate, door, chest, etc. Anybody know if there is a bonus? If so, and to expand on FANGO's argument, how about a tool that was specifically made to bust rock and stone? Ya' know, something that gives a circumstance or competence bonus? There is a sledge in the equipment list, but once again, there is no specific advantage you get for using it to bust open chests, which seems odd. Anybody know if bonuses for using equipment like crowbars and sledges are given elsewhere?</blockquote>
