    The BoM item pack (users item pack)

    What is this? Well, this is an item pack that I'm on the verge og making.
    The merchant is up, the store is running, but wait! The items are missing!

    You will be the one who generates the ideas, and I'll make them come through! (Now wasn't that deep? :p )

    Things to keep in mind

    Baldur's Gate II has loads over very powerful items as it is. Some new powerful items will and should be introduced in this item pack, but what I personally was thinking on was a Underrepresented items pack that weren't overpowered, but in balance with the game.
    When you post your item suggestions, you should provide a full list of "stats" for the item, and if you can, a rough layout on the background of this given item.

    Current ideas:

    #1
    The MAGEBLADE OF THE SORCERER is an item as mystical as it is rare. None know it's true origin, but it is said that it was forged by the Pink sorcerer know as Taluntain, in the time of troubles, when the gods walked the earth.

    STATISTICS:

    Damage: 8d1+2 / 1d4 cold damage
    THACO0: +3 bonus
    Special abilities:
    +2 AC bonus
    Spells: Gives one extra fifth level spell, one extra sixth level spell and one extra seventh level spell
    Weight: 5

    Requires: 10 strenght and 15 intelligence
    Only Usable By:

    THRWONG HAMMER +1
    Mounted knights cannot effectively use long pole weapons while on horseback, and as a result, many weapons have been fitted with shorter shafts so they may be wielded with just one hand. Maces and flails are two previous examples of this - the war hammer is another. The horseman's war hammer is a descendant of the Lucerne hammer. It is made entirely of steel, with rondels protecting and strengthening the grip. Rondels are small disks of metal, often shaped into decorative designs. The shaft is about 18 inches long.'
    This Throwing hammer has been magically enchanted so it returns to the hand of the wielder.

    STATISTICS:

    Combat Abilities: Returns to thrower

    The Magpie's Spear of Flight (the Magpie)

    The Magpie was an adventurer from the northern reaches of Faerun, so named for his habit of meticulously searching the battlefield for any sign of valuable items to be parted from their recently deceased owners. In combat, he was known for his exceptional displays of great cowardice, which he preferred to refer to as "hit-and-run tactics". This spear was commisioned by him, and bears his obvious hallmarks. It has been enchanted to ward against any spell that might restrict motion, whilst allowing the wielder to strike more quickly against a foe. Combined with the spear's naturally great reach, this allows a warrior to pick his battles with care.

    When holding this spear, however, one can't help but feel that one's place is not at the forefront of battle... and many of its wielders have sought to take flight at the most inopportune of moments.

    MAGE ARMORS - Abdel - Bhaal Spawn
    Mage armors were originally created by the renowned Bhaalspawn known as Abdel. When <CHARNAME> Slew him, the original armor was unfortunately broken, but the armor still held some energy.
    The Pink Sorcerer who had followed the progress of <CHARNAME> closely came across this item as he travelled in <CHARNAME>'s footsteps.
    The Pink Sorcerer tried to repair the armor, and succeeded at it to some degree. The vocalizing effect was still intact, but the flexibility decreasing counterspell Abdel had placed upon the armour couldn't be completely re-made. This resulted in an armor that will lower the arcane powers of the wearer. This is shown as a -'x' to the intelligence of the caster, where 'x' is 1 point of intelligence taken for each Armor class below that of 10.
    All mage armours have an enchantment that will lower the weight, and strength requirement of the armor, so the weaker mages can wear the armors.

    (This Particular Armor has been enchanted with a +x enchantment. each +1 enchantment will highten the base AC of the armor, and lower the intelligence penalty.

    [​IMG] Ok, as I suggested spears in the first place:

    The Magpie's Spear of Flight

    The Magpie was an adventurer from the northern reaches of Faerun, so named for his habit of meticulously searching the battlefield for any sign of valuable items to be parted from their recently deceased owners. In combat, he was known for his exceptional displays of great cowardice, which he preferred to refer to as "hit-and-run tactics". This spear was commisioned by him, and bears his obvious hallmarks.

    What does everyone think? Free action seems a bit cheesy, but it does fit with the theme. An increase to movement rate would also seem to fit, but seems a bit much. But in general, any +1 attacks/round weapon is worth using, and being 2-handed stops it being abused as an off-hand weapon. The low base damage makes it difficult to overpower too much.

    (these are just comments cause you asked for them)

    I think the Free Action fits. I agree that increased movement fits too. So maybe?

    Special:
    When the character is hit, 5% chance of double speed Haste and Fear cast on user with both lasting 1 round? So every now and then the character really does just bolt out away from the battle? Could completely swing the battle in the enemies favor one time and not have an effect the other. It also could be funny see your character just bolt out running for the hills.

    Granted, I really like random chance things like this.

    Kuemper's Bane

    Kuemper was a hermit residing on the outskirts of The Way Inn, near Waterdeep. Due to her ill-reguard of all people, she paid an obscene amount of gold for a mage to enchant this weapon for her. She never hit anyone with it; waving it around in a threatening manner served her well.

    Type: One handed
    Proficiency: Long Sword
    Damage: 1d6+2/+6 vs. Favored Enemy
    Speed Factor: 2
    Enchantment: +2
    Special: This long sword adds +4 to hit and damage to a ranger's favored enemy. While equipped, it negates the penalties of wielding two weapons.
    Useable: only by Rangers


    I don't know how feasible this is, but, hey, I was on a roll in the fiction writing area.

    @ THe Magpie: I think Bg2 has enough of movement altering items as it is, or?
    So free Action would suit the idea better.

    This would require a new spell effect made too. Maybe Fear's enough?

    @ Kuemper:
    Would it hurt if the Bane sword was a scimitar or some such instead? BG2 is just packed with Long Swords as it is already, no?

    Hmm... I contemplated the idea of a % Fear chance, but the point was to make a spear worth using, so it seemed a bit extreme, as it potentially makes it worthless. A hefty morale penalty accomplishes the same, almost, but isn't as seemingly random and unfair. It increases the character's odds of bolting if a battle is going badly, and that's what I was aiming for. Granted, I'm not sure if it can work as I intend, it might require some kind of inverse of the "Resist Fear" spell.

    There's no need to increase movement rate, IMHO, that's why I left it out. The +1 attack is pretty neccesary, though, as it's what makes the weapon stand out. Granted, there's already Arbane, Belm and the Scarlet Ninja-to, so you could argue it's OTT or whatever, but the spear's basic problem is its pitiful base damage. 1D6 is nothing, especially for a 2-handed weapon. Adding +1 attack seemed to make sense to get over this. Also, single-class druids lack attacks/round, so it's one way of rectifying it, as Belm generally gets given to a thief or used on a warrior's off-hand.

    Granted, the extra attack is pretty necessary if we won't an item worth the while...
    I will look a wee on how to go around the morale boost; otherwise the item is pretty well balanced as it is , imho anyways...

    Blade Of Crimson Cat


    Crimson Cat was perhaps the weirdest halfling ever lived. Not only was he a skilled warrior, but he also wielded this blade. Over three meters long as it is, one must wonder how it was possible for him to carry and, even more, wield it. Crimson Cat used the blade to fend of forces of evil, never stopping or straying from his path.
    Then, one day, he just disappeared. The blade was found some days later from a small village. No one knows the truth about his disappearance, althought many say that he went to challenge the Abyss itself.
    Regardless of the truth, this blade still serves it’s cause unquestionately. When it’s hilt is grasped, the blade will burst to a magical flame that burns evil fiercely. Also, it has an enchantment that enables the user to wield it, even thought it stays as heavy as ever.

    This is a weapon used by a character in a story written by me. The Character was actually not Halfling, but that's closest thing possible. Perhaps the damage is little too much? Also, it's 2-handed, despite being a bastard sword (they can be wielded with 2 hands, can they not?), so 2-handed sprite should be used.

    Here is a quick list of Bastard Swords and Battle Axes I have created. I could continue to post here or create one full list and send it to you directly olimikrig. Let me know.

    Abel’s Gift (Bastard Sword)
    This was a gift from an Arch-Mage Abel to his long time friend and protector Tangor. Abel enchanted this weapon so that Tangor would have the ability to defend Abel in a time of need, which happened to be all the time since Abel Wild Mage powers would summon quite a few pit fiends when they were not called upon.

    I decided to see what was out there for weapons in the link and I have to say some of those weapons/items are way over powered, if not all of them. You might find one maybe two to use if this weapon pack is meant for balanced magical items.

    The one thing I'd really like to see is an un-nerfed Armor spell. The only problem is getting the duration to depend on damage. Unfortunately, all I can think of off the top of my head is making the effect permanent, or I'd do it myself. :nolike:

    Dagger of the Order of The Scorpion

    This vile adamantine blade is rumored to be the legendary weapon of Shadow Scorpion, one of the grandmasters of the order of the Scorpion. Based in the Plane of Shadow, they were a ruthless guild of assassins said to be related to the legendary Dying Light. They used a special type of venom who was said to be the one of the Scorpion Lord, a minor deity the clan worshipped. The efficacity of this venom was shocking, paralyzing the victim, fearfully living his/her last moments. They would leave a small scorpion made of dark matter as their signature.

    How did the weapon came to leave Shadow Scorpion's grip was never known... some say that internal conflicts between the grandmasters of the Order of the Scorpion and those of the Dying Light led to a bloody, decimating war between the two clans, while some other stories say that after the mysterious disappearence of the Scorpion Lord, the order was dissolved, and relics of the clan were casted into another plane... how did they found its way to the material plane remains a mystery.
