Hordes of the Underdark Crafting


Hordes of the Underdark Crafting



Hordes of the Underdark expands on the OC crafting system. At Marrok's Forge and Barun Silverblade's Forge, arms and armor could be forged but their properties could not be tailored.

In Chapter Two and Three of HotU, Rizolvir can craft the best weapons for our NWN Builds. To an extent, we can tailor weapon properties through the above-screencapped dialogue menu.

Melee weapons can feature up to eight simultaneous properties; ranged, only five. The Black Pearl enchantment does not work on ranged weapons.

The following properties can be added to melee weapons by Rizolvir, such as scimitars:


[1] There is a +12 katana NWN itemized.

To ranged weapons, such as longbows:

  • Enhancement Bonus +10 
  • Mighty +5, Mighty +10 
  • Unlimited Ammunition +5

In addition, the Black Pearl of Drearing's Deep adds (melee weapon only): 

  • On-Hit Ability Drain DC-24 Strength

With the exception of the enchantment bonus (which is additive), if the weapon already sports one of the above properties, it cannot be enchanted with the same property by Rizolvir. For example, if the weapon already sports on-hit elemental (of any kind), Rizolvir will not add more elemental (even if it's a different kind).

Choose magical weapons that already sport rare and valuable properties that Rizolvir doesn't offer. For example, Tebimar's Scythe or Bleederkin:


This is a dual-wield:



For archers, the unlimited arrow enchantment is not that good because it disallows the loading of all kinds of magical ammo. I'd rather be able to switch between different ammo (and have to restock sometimes) than be stuck with one kind even if it never runs out.
