Something to amuse the developers

from Stardock Forums

Yesterdary, I found my first golden treasure chest with the legendary weapons. I was playing the Tyrant, so my starting hero couldn't use the weapons. No problem I thought, I'll find the two statues and get a melee hero. The first statue I find is the archer and the second the Mage, neither could use the weapons. I allied with the Dwarves and get a crossbowman! I had to look at the two amazing weapons in my inventory for the whole game. So, I started a new game as the Cleric, and my two statues were the Tyrant hero and the Ranger so of course I found the legendary weapons again and couldn't use them. In the dozen or so games I've played, I've never found the weapons when I had a hero who could use them. I'm starting to suspect that this is purposefully designed evil humor on the part of the devs.

There are startin melee heroes and there are melee heroes minors give you. But legendary weapons happens to be always swords, which enlarges the gap betwenn melee and others.

Haha No, just laziness when up setting those goodie huts :)

We'll be solving the problem as follows: Golden Chests give out a 'Shattered Blade'-esque loot item and 4 recipes for four different Weapn Types (Sword, Axe, Bow, Staff) each with a similar 'special ability'.

This should fix the frustration / ironic hilarity of your past few encounters with the Golden Chest ;)

If we are talking Legendary Weapons -recipes, is there anyone who can tell little Drozy, why the legendary Battle Axe is so underpowered compared to Burning Axe. 

I mean (cannot remember) that Burning Axe is something like +4 fire dmg +5 phy damage, while Legendary (wuzz) Axe is something like +2 dmg. 

The numbers may be incorrect, but the games I have had played with Drozy the Legendary Battle Axe really sucked.

 

Please make Legendary Battle Axe legenardy powerfull and not legendary wuzz. I would be too sad for Drozy only sticking to his burning stick axe.
