i mentioned this in the DD tips tricks section but i think it should be considered here. i was dissapointed in DD with quest items having crappy stats and having to reload a huge amount of time to get some good stats. quest items are suposed to be special. or whats the point of the quest? i think quest items should have certain minimum stats which are above average with the possibilty of totally awesome stats. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

*Sigh* Do you ever read the official site?
Lar said several times that the item generation system is fixed...

and no, i dont constantly look at the developer posts becouse that seems very static. and what does fixed mean anyway? what kind of fix? i'm just full of questions. and i know that a lot of you will suggest i'm full of something else too. my response in advance is, arnt we all?

Some more than others (I don't mean you) ;0).

I'll just quote from the interview:

Quote
Jonric : How important will weapons, armor / clothing and other items be? Will there be many different ones and will upgrades be possible? Will any be rare or unique? And what are some interesting new ones?

Swen Vincke : There is a very high degree of item fever in Riftrunner. One of those back end changes was to change the entire equipment system into something a lot more sensible and balanced. We had lots of complaints about that, so it's something we really wanted to address.

I don't want to give out too many details yet so I'll just limit myself to answering your questions in the shortest possible way. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" /> Very, many, a lot, yes, yes and how about incredibly potent donkey ears? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Normally it should all be solved in <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/riftrunner.gif" alt="" />.
I think that in <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/riftrunner.gif" alt="" /> the special weapons/items are all static stats and just the normal weapons are a little variable ,so that you do not have to save and load until the special weapon is finally the way you like it.

So some normal axes that you find do 6-8 damage but an other normal axe that you find can do 7-10, but the really special weapons/items like for example the
axe of the light does always do 12-18 damage and 5 lightning damage and has 1 place for a charm or so.
