I have noticed a couple of things occurring in the game for which I have no explanation. I was wondering whether they are just random oddities, or if there is some logic behind them.
1) Double experience.
Sometimes when I kill a monster, the experience points display twice, one above the other. I had saved before killing a big Orc, just to see what kinds of treasure he would drop. The first, second and fourth times I killed him, I received approx. 21,000 exp. The third time, the green 21,000 score appeared twice. I checked my total exp for both before and after, and was surprised to see I had been awarded 42,000 exp for this kill.
At the risk of looking a gift horse (gift bug?) in the mouth, I wonder why this is occurring.
2) Huge prices for pretty normal weapons.
I have come across several weapons that are pretty mundane, but which sell for huge prices. Two examples: (The prices of both these items came from Geoff's)
a) [nocando] Sword of Warriors: 12/12, wt. 120, dam. 27-65, requires same str. and agil. to use as regular [nocando] sword, no other specials (besides my sword skill bonuses) Basically just a plain old [nocando] sword. The price I was charged was 43,982 gp.
b) Brutal Long Bow of the Thief: 10/10, wt. 80, dam. 8-99, +3 offense, repeat time 15, same str. and agil. req. as regular long bow. Price I was paid for it was 24,462 gp.
Any thoughts as to why this might be happening? Perhaps the weapons have some hidden, but pretty staggering bonuses???
