If it does, awesome. I've also been wanting to try it, but I can't seem to find a mage to try it on.
Anyway, the point is not just about that single item, but all the items of similar "importance". Like the Phuav sword, or whatever it's called. They did a whole cutscene about it and made a big deal out of it. It is only +1. Shouldn't it have +1 and some sort of other ability, since they made a big deal out of it?
+1 items should be like things like Dragon's Grasp, or whatever it's called. You buy it at the store. It is +1. Yeah! No story behind it. It just has a cool name, but that's fine because they just made it something you could buy in the store. They didn't make you complete a quest for it or do any cutscene or anything.
