[QUOTE="kreynolds, post: 182736, member: 2829"] The group that I play in always had a problem with the Vorpal weapon enhancement, so a fellow DM and myself sat down and came up with what we think is a damn good solution. Check it out: [b]Vorpal:[/b] This potent and feared enhancement bears an extraordinarily sharp blade. Upon a successful critical hit, the blade of the weapon is replaced by a planar rift, allowing the blade to cut through even the hardest materials. The vorpal enhancement deals an additional x4 force damage. For instance, a longsword deals 1d8 points of damage per hit. So a vorpal longsword will deal 1d8 (normal damage) + 1d8 (normal critical damage) + 4d8 (vorpal damage) points of damage. A vorpal weapon must be a slashing weapon. The damage dealt by a vorpal weapon is force damage and can even harm creatures that are immune to critical hits. [i]Caster Level:[/i] 18th; [i]Prerequisites:[/i] Craft Magic Arms and Armor, [i]keen edge, finger of death[/i]; [i]Market Price:[/i] +5 bonus. [URL=http://www.enworld.org/messageboards/showthread.php?s=&threadid=11336]Here's a link[/URL] to another thread on this site where it has already been briefly discussed, just in case you would like some more info or other opinions. Let me know what you peeps think. [/QUOTE]
