Weapons

The latest One D&D playtest document has a host of changes to how weapons are going to work in the game's next version, which is slated to come out next year to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Dungeons and Dragons.

World of Warcraft has weapon restrictions and I don't really get why anymore.

I collect weapons.

I fell down the Youtube video hole and found myself watching videos arguing about whether scythes were useful as weapons. One video argued no, another mentioned that the war-scythe was a thing but it usually involved taking the scythe blade and mounting it lengthwise so it was more like a standard polearm. The consensus seems to be that using a scythe unmodified as a weapon isn’t ideal — it’s not designed for it. So when I see WoW weapons like the Scythe of the Unmaker, I can’t stop thinking about how hard that weapon would actually be to use against someone else.

Then again, it’s World of Warcraft and I routinely use swords so ridiculously big they defy all reason, so come on, the Scythe of the Unmaker is almost sedate compared to Ashkandi or Armageddon. I mean, one of my favorite fist weapons is the hat of a dead Lich.

It’s the Queue. Let’s chat, y’all.

I think the new fox mount is a touch better than the older one. But, being that I myself am ancient as the dawn, I figure I’ll stick with the older one.

I have no opinion on vegan tacos because I don’t like tacos.

Every expansion, I find one grey item and throw it in my bags -- this expansion, I decided a Wooden Horse Carving was the perfect souvenir to cart around.

The Battle for Azeroth beta is chugging along with more new items being added each day.

Datamining of the Battle For Azeroth beta client continues, and after getting hyped about mounts and pets, naturally my next instinct is to check out the sweet, sweet transmog gear coming in the next expansion.

World of Warcraft has weapon restrictions built into its class system.
