Gwai's wand

#1 Post by vstat »

I wish I had enough gold to buy it :( Anyway, it's cool you got your name in there. Maybe we can look forward to more of these "easter eggs" in the future. Personally, I would like to have a rock in Carn Dum graffitied with my name on it. Goodness knows I've died there enough.

Hehe :)

I want to limit the number of easter eggs, at least those that feel out of context. Gwai sounds fine a name in the context, the Cursed quest NPC also (it's an anagram of benli's name ;> ).

I did name myself after Tolkien, after all. For a while I went by Gwaihir, but then the movies came out and everyone thought I'd named myself after the movies, so I shortened it to Gwai.

I just looked at it in the code, it's cool that it's actually called Gwai's Burninator. lol

I wasn't going to ruin the surprise totally, but I suppose it is a spoiler's forum. BTW, it costs 500

I was able to purchase the wand recently, and I must say... I'm actually a bit underwhelmed. I was playing a cryomancer, and thus was not short on damage spells. Even so, the wand did only about 100 or so damage with magic 35-40, and the radius/range always seemed about 1 too short to really be useful. I DO like however that I can use it almost twice in succession while churning on bolt spells.

Perhaps increase the range of effect by 1 more or factor in something else. I know with the new magic device talents coming out it will probably fix this, but I thought I'd just put it out there.
