Equipment

Equipment covers weapons, armor, carried tools, and temporary gear picked up during play.

Saved Gear

Many carried, worn, and wielded items save when you leave the game. When you return, saved worn and wielded equipment is restored to use.

Some items do not save:

• Donated gear
• Broken gear
• Food and drinks
• Unique items
• Items directly restricted by the game
• Items you cannot normally drop
• Items inside containers

Equipment modifications such as hardening, lightening, and flaming effects are stripped when the item is restored.

Guild storage, shop storage, boats, ponies, and similar helpers do not preserve equipment through reboot. Money on your character and in the bank does.

Weapons

See Specialization for weapon and armor specialization.

Damage Types

Weapons have a damage type or combination of damage types that they apply. These are:

• blunt: damage dealt with forceful impacts, ideal for crushing armor and bone
• cleave: powerful, sweeping strikes
• pierce: precise, pointed attacks, including bows
• slash: quick cuts relying on sharp edges movements
• magical: damage from arcane, elemental, or mystical energies

Extra Weapon Properties

In addition to the type of damage a weapon can do, armaments are also distinguished in their size (small, medium, large, and huge) and other properties. These can include:

• Polearm: Weapons with long handles and designed for reach or leverage
• Missile: Projectiles or weapons designed for long-range attacks; typically bows, slingshots, or similar launching devices
• Martial: Denotes weapons that require specialized training to use effectively, often associated with skilled combatants and warriors
• Finesse: Weapons that rely more on precision and agility rather than brute force, allowing the user to leverage some of their dexterity for attacks
• Focus: Used to channel magical energies and essential for spellcasters to enhance their spells
