Eveningstar: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 05:13, 14 August 2013

Version 0.12: This article may not be up to date for the latest stable release of Crawl.

Name	Eveningstar
Skill	Maces & Flails
Damage	15
Accuracy	-1
Base delay (%)	15 (150%)
Min delay	7 (16)
Hands	1H
Size	Medium
Ranged?	No

The opposite of a morningstar.

This weapon falls into the 'Maces & Flails' category. It is a one handed weapon, and it is better for the strong.

Not only is an eveningstar the opposite of a morningstar, it's also a superior weapon. They are on par with demon whips/sacred scourges in terms of one-handed M&F weapons; although their attack speed is slower, their higher base damage makes them better suited to taking out heavily armoured opponents. Unfortunately, they are quite rare, and one will often find a demon whip long before finding an eveningstar.
