wand/staff

I've been informed that when you use a staff/wand as weapon and have /f on then they get destroyed pretty quickly, should be looked at

I have noticed that staffs that add stuff other than the normal break and are unrepairable, but shields don't. They both are crafted items and both are used in combat so shouldn't both have the same wearing effect?

#if any

Agree need to look at max damage value for wand/staff and shieldas they are probably = to what ever item was copied for the very 1st one. This will need some work to change all the items but has to be done.

As for shield, I do not know how it decides to add damage to shields or any other items once they are hit. That will need some investigation as to how it works.

Good pick up.

Has anything been done on this? Heh, I wanna start making staffs with bonuses or i might switch over to a shield.

Shield and Staff have both been increased in their ability to take damage to make them roughly comparable to 2h swords.

This was done some time ago, probably not long after the original post.

Try it and see how it goes.

Sorry to bring back an old topic but I really don't feel like this was ever fixed. Today I pented 1 dpot with Hokara and my staff broke 3 times. Luckily it was just a plain staff and I could repair it, but if your weapon breaks every 20 minutes of using it, what is the point of taking the time to get +stats on it? I like how Jack said earlier on this post "If any". Truly, atleast the noble staff should not have extreme breaking problems. It might be because I'm used to wearing titanium weapons that don't ever break so I don't notice it, but I honestly don't ever remember repairing weapons even once when going from bronze to tit with all the races. I think I woulda noticed if it had been breaking every 20 minutes. Maybe there's something in the code with staffs that makes them wear faster? Also shields still do not take any damage and last forever.

Noble staff was damaged about 4 times during an hour in ice pents this evening, if that helps anyone at all

I will not have a chance to look at this for a few weeks. remind me again then.
