Re: Least Favorite Weapon
Depends who I'm fighting. Heaven knows I don't want to be meeting a skeleton archer with a spear or a bow.
If I'm dealing with horsemen, on the other hand...

Re: Least Favorite Weapon
Fire arrows: I still am not sure why those things would be effective against skelotons.

Re: Least Favorite Weapon
Well the only part of a human body that can survive being set on fire must be weak to fire...right?
I sometimes think that weakness was pure balance, it doesn't seem to have an explanation like other weaknesses.
My least favorite weapon is the melee attack on an Elvish Lady, completely useless!

Re: Least Favorite Weapon
An old, dried out skeleton burns relatively well, would be the handwave. I don't know whether it's strictly true in real life, but it is in Wesnoth. WINR.

Re: Least Favorite Weapon
in mythology, fire is often symbolic of either destruction or purification, so i'd say that fire affects skeletons so much because it interferes with/weakens the arcane enchantments that are animating them.

Re: Least Favorite Weapon
To clarify: it's not fire hurting bones that bothers me, it's that the arrows would connect for long enough to do any damage that way.

Re: Least Favorite Weapon
I'm not too fond of touch attacks that do impact damage. A touch attack that can do impact damage would better described as a "slam".

Re: Least Favorite Weapon
for the arrows to be lit, there has to be some sort of flammable substance on it, probably a liquid. then when it hit the skeleton, some of the liquid would smear off onto the skeleton. also, the arrow could penetrate the bone and get stuck in it that way.

Re: Least Favorite Weapon
Pitchforks, since they don't seem to do anything other than poking at the enemy and do minor damage.
I don't know if not having a weapon could be described as your least favorite, but i do hate having an adept and then getting owned by a berserker.

Dear God...I don't know whether it's strictly true in real life, but it is in Wesnoth. WINR.

Re: Least Favorite Weapon
Don't cause us to need it. You should know how to apply it yourself by now.

Just for the challenge .
Fantasy games will always be somewhat unrealistic, otherwise they'd be Non-fiction games instead. If something doesn't seem right... a mage did it!
