Larian Studios Forums Beyond Divinity (English) Help/Tips/Tricks Sharpen weapon, worthy of a true war god

Sharpen weapon,
Now that seems to be a skill well worth having!!! By using it correctly you can get some truely massive bonuses to damage. Here is how to do it.

Take one weapon preferably with low or no dex req. and take one level in sharpen weapon. The damage of the weapon will go up dramatically and the dex req. will rise with 6. Take yet another level in sharpen and sharpen the weapon again. Damage Increases dramatically again and dex req. goes up with another 7. Do that a few time and you will have a true weapon worthy of a war god!!
It is important to note however that if you take say 4 levels of sharpen weapon and only use it once then you will only get the damage improvement once (though slightly better than with level one sharpen weapon) and a dex req. of 9.

The disadvantage of using sharpen weapon is ofcourse that you will need to spend some point on dex that could have been spend on strenght. But you do get truely massive damage bonuses this way plus naturally the dex related advantages in evasion and ability to hit.

So warriors, sharpen your weapon and cut through those pesky deadknights like butter (he heehheheeheheheheh) <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/evilgrin1.gif" alt="" />

Just some matematics,
going through the above procedure by taking one level then sharpen, take a new level and sharpen again for 4 levels will produce a damage improvement for your weapon of min 51- max 105 with a dex req of 30

where can u learn it?

Act 1, Citadel, weaponry - the weapon officer there is a merchant and sells this skill up to lvl 5.

Thanks Sauron, sounds usefull, especially since it can be unlearned, to free up skillpoints after everything is neatly sharped.

Thanks Kiya, I am afraid I killed the bugger though.
