Item Echantment: Massive

[Leopold]

Massive: a weapon's size and shape is increased in proportion to it's weight to yield more damage when struck in the right areas.

This enchantment would increase the critical damage caused by blunt weapons. This basically adds a +1 to the damage multiplier for blunt weapons. It can only be applied to blunt weapons and not edged or piercing weapons.


Questions on this:

1. What would the enchantment price be on this? +1, +2 ?


balanced or otherwise need to be altered please let me know and i welcome to see what your experiences on these would be.

You'd want to playtest it to make sure, but i think +1 would be find since it only applies to blunt.

so +2 to be on the safe side?

Yes, that would be on the safe side.

Well, lets compare it to impact. (MoF) which is keen for blunt weapons.
Extra Damage per hit (avg from crits)
Weapon Impact Massive Both Both+Imp Crit
Any with 20/x2 1/20 1/20 3/20 6/20
Any with 20/x3 2/20 1/20 4/20 9/20
Any with 19-20/x2 2/20 2/20 6/20 12/20

This is an acceptable bonus, because there are no blunt weapons with an 18-20 threat range. Considering keen to be a useful enchantment fully worth the +1, and assuming it must remain balanced on heavy flails (the only blunt weapon that has a 19-20 threat range). The bonus should be +3. (+2 if it can't stack with impact.

If you could stack the impact enchantment, it would take 4 impact enchantments +improved crit to give the benifits of Massive+Impact+Improved crit. So the price should be +3 to keep the enchantment balanced with keen.

well, other than being completely confused by the last post, i want to put in my 2 cents that this Massive enchantment seems straight up a +1 enchantment.
