Default Re: Magic Item Quick Reference for Dom 3?

OK, so I'll use the DB for the details but the item name will have to come from the manual, which seems to match the name the players see in the game.

Getting back to the DB, looking at Smasher as an example, what is the column "eff#"? It shows 328. Where can I cross-reference that number?

ok, looks like 328 is Crusherknack. But looking at the Dom2 MIQR it says Smasher also has the ability of "+Damage vs Constructs/Undead" but I don't see that anywhere in the DB. So which is right?

Take a look at the properties of Crusherknack in the weapons page. Smasher, at its heart, is a weapon, which has the secondaryeffect crusherknack, which deals extra damage to constructs. That's the property of the cursherknack weapon.

So, ifa weapon item lists which weapon it grants, go to the weapons display page and look it up. If that weapon has a secondaryeffect or secondaryeffectalways listed for it, look that weapon up in the weapons display to see what it does. Targets that get hit will suffer both effects. This is how e.g. Fire Brands work: first the target is hit with the firebrand's 12 ap damage, then everyone in the square is hit with 8 ap fire damage due to the secondaryeffectalways of small area fire.

Alrighty, I found more data on another tab. Looks like everything I need is in the db but, man, it's a big job hunting it all down! This is going to take a while...better grab a Snickers.

So, have you made progress on the Quick Reference thing? I think that there are really a lot of people waiting for it, who don't carry their manual with them at all times and don't want to open Edi's DB for something like this... me included.

I don't have a helluva lot of energy right now, but is something like this kinda what you're looking for?

http://strategywiki.org/wiki/Dominio...s/Items_of_Air

I wrote it, but don't have immediate plans to follow up with any of the other paths. My attention's been sapped by work and my focus has changed to actually being able to win one of thes multiplayer games one of these days.... Pooh. I keep losing instead.

Unfortunately, with my wife's recent 40th b-day and the holidays now upon us, I've had little time to work on this. I'm hoping to return to after the new year...
