Many avoid the champions trident because it cannot be removed without shapeshifting and it curses you to participate in the next death match.

Not to mention that the chances of picking up wounds are significent. If the reward was good enough, then the winner might be the one who is the least lamed.

Yes, but as far as I'm concerned, the reason I would want to remove the trident from a thug would be to add a Shadow Brand or similar weapon. If the trident has killing light then I'm much less concerned about the fact that I'm losing both hand slots. (I would still want a shield on a top-line thug but the trident's defense bonus isn't bad and a thug's high Prot protects you from arrows pretty well anyway.)

I would say that its enough just to make the Trident one-handed. That way your unit ends up with a decent one-handed weapon that gives quickness. You can still add another weapon for extra firepower or a shield for defense/luck.

Make the trident 1h, and give it Heartfinding.

If it could be coded, add 100g per opponent defeated (or per match, so if 7 fights, you get 700g even if you only participated in 3 of them).

Then you got a deal.

What does Heartfinding do, anyway? I've never used enough blood magic to test it.

Me either, but I am guessing it gives an automatic chest wound?

I would be happy with Eyeloss too, actually that might even be better, would be hilarious on a trident.

Yes, this is included within the first half of my statement... I just didn't list all the reasons for wanting to remove the trident.

This makes the Trident a one-handed weapon.

hmm the tirdent does suck alot but i have fun kicking the crap out of the AI leaders in the arena. I usually enter all deathmatches. The first one i usually send a crap commander then the second one if i have an assassin i usually send him in with the crown that makes people ethreal. The AI in my games for some reason alwasy send thier gods to the arena every time. its wierd. never had a game where they sent crap units.
