Umberlee Trident - Too Good to be True?
-
Following the new structure, I suppose I should ping @Voss_ @Voss
The Umberlee trident is being sold from most PC shops atm, and its a martial weapon 1d8 x 2 with 1d4 cold and 1d4 sonic. Making it effectively have the same damage as a silver Greatsword, except that its one handed, so you can carry a shield.
I figured id bug report it, so you lot can decide whether its too strong or imbalanced?
-
Yea, except it weighs more than a spear and does only x2 dmg on crits afaik, with a very shit crit range.
-
The difference is that it’s one handed, not two. So you can use it with a shield.
-
@O-louth Will differ to Voss on it, maybe a gentle nerf of replacing the 1d4 with +2 to both elements, guaranteed 4 dmg versus potentially an extra 8?
:shrug:
-
As far as I know, only Cojak‘s Umberlee priest has been using one so far. Cori also has not sold one yet in her shop. It might be pretty good… but I would consider that it’s clearly a weapon of Umberlee, too.
-
I felt I had to say something. But whatever the solution is I don’t mind. Because as @EyeOfGruumsh wrote, no one uses them.
-
@O-louth I discussed trident stats in general in another thread. It's not OP because of the terrible base stats and you can't get crafted tridents at all.

@Cojak81
The Trident in question is martial admittedly, but is equal in damage to an Iron morningstar with permanent, low level Flame weapon on it.
1d8+1d4+1d4 x 2.Anyhow, it felt like it needed to be reported, but since no one is using it, it might not be top priority.
-
I do think an alignment restriction would be a good idea on it though. Limited to chaotic, neutral and evil alignments so lawful and good people can't use it. It is an artifact of Umberlee after all!
-
@Cojak81 good suggestion. i'll take a look this weekend
-
-
can anyone tell me where this trident was found? I cant seem to find it in any of the quest loot
-
Caves on the Wyvernwater Isles
