Signature weapons

Remove all ads!

Just wondering if anyone uses particular weapons or weapon types for their characters to give them a little more depth. Well, as much depth as you can get in BG really.

Valeria Silenthand my mage thief that i'm using just now is a dual weilding dagger user who uses throwing knifes when she attacks froma range.

My other character, who i admittedly use a lot, Vermillion, a fighter thief uses short swords and short bows.

Anyone else use the same kinda weapons as much as they can for a style thing?

 

my figters use: dragonslayer,namarra,lilacor,heartseeker +3,battle axe +2,equlaizer
my mages use:
sling +4,quarter staff +3,crossbow +3,quarter staff +2

my character is a master of blades, using any forms of swords, (allmost), bastard, katana and long sword. Dual wielding them for extra pleasure

 

My beastmaster uses (of course) a quarterstaff and a bow.

My evil fighter uses a halberd or a longsword with shield.

My halfling bounty hunter uses a short bow and most bladed weapons a thief can use, preferably katanas.

My conjurer uses a quarterstaff and throwing daggers.

I created a halfling kensai too, using two shortswords. Will probably get back to him later.

 

I always like my Dwarf Fighter with a big 'ol axe. Something that is just right about that!

 

I tend to associate two-handed-swords (namely Lilarcor, and then Carsomyr) with Paladins; scimitars with druids (and drow elven rangers ). I'm also tending to associate Melf's Minute Meteors with my Sorcerer these days, with the Boomerang dagger coming in a close second.

 

Horned Reaper, my beserker is a specialised halberd user

Peeb, my bile demon barbarian dual wields flails, has cloudkill as innate ability and is immune to poison and acid

 

Ive recently started a game with a diminutive Chaotic Neutral elven fighter-mage called Boris who refuses to fight with any weapons smaller than himself (he's currently specialised in Double handed swords, halberds and quarterstaves with slots to be filled later in Long Bows and Two-handed weapons) due to his acute penis envy.

 

Whoa Will, too much Psychology for you. I admit I go with the looks good theme (i.e. If I duel wield it's with both straight swords or both curved.) So I would never dual a long sword and a katana, too tacky for me. But I have done katana and scimitar. Likewise I like to keep blunt and bladed weapons away from each other (i.e. dual wield mace with flail not mace with bastard sword)

 

Yeah, it's too bad there aren't more good maces around. Minsc looks really cool dual-wielding two maces.

 

Tjek,

Mace of Disruption (+1/+2)
Skullcrusher +3

and let's not forget...

Mauler's Arm +2
Ardulia's Fall +1
Jerrod's Mace
and the Handmaiden's Mace

 

Ranger/Cleric swinging two morningstars.

 

The Mace of Destruction is cool, but the +2 maces and so forth just don't have style. (-: The swords and some of the axes are much cooler looking.

 

My other character is a naked club wielding gnomish fighter.

 

Hmm.. Another spam thread. Oh, well - Why not?
I´m currently playing with a human male sorcerer and he´s using a quarterstaff.
Wow! Interesting for you to know? I think not.

 

I have started a gnomish fighter/illusionist whom I plan to use slings and returning throwing axes.

 

What is your gnome's alignment? I love throwing axes, and there are some goods ones for both good and bad guys.

 

my swahy mage duels with equalizer and cut throat +4 short sword and/or staff of magi(awsome )

 

my berserker theif dual weildskatana blade + 1 with celestial fury (possibly the best sword in the game)
And he is twice as good a fighter as korgan!

 

My choice of weapons depends on char:

-My best dc fighter-thief Radek of Boktor had both grandmastery in daggers (boneblade & firetooth) [for backstabbing] and katanas (C'Fury - what else) [for serious melee] using single weapon style. He was basically a melee only char, and rarely used throwing daggers as ranged weapon. The best backstabber and about te most versatile char I ever had.
-My halfling mc fighter thief Bragomil used scimitars (belm & kashiko's wakizashi) [for both melee & backstabbing] in single weapon style and shortbows (tansheron's bow & gesen's bow) as his ranged weapon.
-My kensai-mage Radegast used quarterstaffs (staff of the magi & staff of rhynn) and daggers (as ranged weapon). He was thorougly awesome.
-My halfling cavalier Sir Camaris (the second one after Sir Donaldus) mainly uses longswords (Namarra) and flails (flail of the ages) in single weapon style. I later added bastard swords, katanas and maces. He was absolutely unstoppable and his saving throws were excellent ... he was absolutely immune to mindflayers psi-attacks without protections.
