<div>Maybee i am missing it but for our AA abilities we need certon type of weapons.  But some weapons don seem to want to tell me what type of weapon they are.  Like Drakeborn Bludgeon, is a Bludgeon a hammer? a mace? somethign else.  And and do cudgels count as hammer or maces?  Or a Ravesect leg? is that a mace? Sorry if this is stupid question but i don wanna spend a ton of money on an item to figure out its not an item i can use my AA ability with. Also when it says hammer or mace, Does a warhammer count, or deos it HAVE to be a hammer.</div><div> </div><div>Secondly any one happen to have the Xegonite imbued mace and hammer stats? And any sugestions on good 1handed maces/hammers that pallies can use with sta/agil or other good tank stats on it?</div><div> </div><div>Thank you <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></div>

<div></div>Thank you, very good to know the flail's work also the leg is no big deal, was just a example of an item that give sno explanation on what it is(other than an insects leg) when equipped it looks like a stick.  But i don use it anyways hehe.  Still if any dev's read this would be nice to put a clear description on what type of weapon a weapon is <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />

<div>It would be cool if they added that bit of information to the item description.  It's not too bad with blunts.  But try figuring out what is a sword, rapier, dagger, axe......blah!  It sucks to pay for an item off the broker, thinking it will work for you and then find out...well, yeah, it looks like a sword, but it's not...sorry.  Or yes, a sceptre is basically just a pretty mace...but not in this case.</div><div> </div><div>Wouldn't be hard to add...and might make things just a bit easier.</div><div>Ritehite</div><div>70 Paladin</div><div>Survivors</div><div>Guk</div>
