Matron de Winter's weapons trade-in program.(details inside)

Post by MatronDeWinter »

Did you just kill the ancient wyrm, spy a magic spear on it's corpse, bring it home only to identify it as an "Indestructable accurate spear of ruin"?? Have no fear, this program is here to help YOU!!!

For three weeks from today (June 15 2009) I will help turn your garbage into gold. Collect the junk magic weapons that you do not want, bring them to me (in quantities no less than 10) and I will craft you brand new GM items in their place. The trade-off system works like this..

If you bring me a magic sword that requires 6 ingots to make, I will craft you a GM weapon (or armor piece) provided they require the same amount of ingots. Bring me a ruin hally, I will make you a GM hally (far superior), bring me 5 might broadswords, and I will craft your armor or weapons, provided they add up to the same amount of ingots!

It's that easy! I want your old, busted, junky, used, overly-repaired magic weapons, and in return you walk away with beautiful-shiny-new GM crafted items.

*The ingot exchange for bows, staves and tailored goods will be handled on a per-case basis, failure rate is taken into consideration on all trades. I reserve the right to refuse service for any reason.

Aside from all the nearly-free gm weapons/armor you will be getting, at the end of the three week period, whomever has turned in the most (ingot value) junk magic weapons will recieve an additional prize valued at 75k. Do yourself a favor and trade in your crap.

Current Standings (format:Name - TotalPoints/PointsSpent)
nubi\gone - 1542/0
DrakeLord - 1002/447
Hicha - 122/120
Sebastian - 47/47


*Total points counts towards the grand prize, points spent is a numerical value used to determine your "credit" on crafted goods if any. To get your remaining balance, subtract your SpentPoints from your total.

Are these items that you offer, specifically, Exceptional?

Should that be the case, I'd like to know the stat bonuses for a piece of armor that's Exc before I consider giving it away for a regular item. I know that an Exc weapon does +4 damage (better than Might, worse than Force) but the Armor post under the Guides section makes no mention of Exc armor.

That implies exceptional.

The general rule (that I used to use) was that GM armor is right between Guarding and Hardening. (Just like GM weapons are between Might and Force)
