The New Class of Weapons in Build 11.99

I notict I notice that we have a new class of weapon in build 11.99. The grade above fine is excellent. The balcksmith can improve your blade to this level and enemies appear to occasionaly drop not only excellent blades, but also excellent pistols. AFIK the balcksmith does not improve pistols.

So far I have found no excellent weapons for sale in any store, or in any chest. Does anyone know what is intended? Is this the way it supposed to work or should we be able to ger them from merchants, find them in chests or both in addition to getting them from enemies.?

So you have found no exellent weapons at all? None dropped by enemiew in combat? Have yousused the balcksmith on Dowessen to improve your baldes? <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/hi.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":gday" border="0" alt="hi.gif" />
 
So far in my testing I've not had the weapons mod turned on - but am now running a game with it on so I can see how the blacksmith works... Found A LOT of blades since then, it seems, best being an Atwood F100 (a complete shock at this early in the game), I think the condition is "worn"...

I have yet to find a blacksmith to talk to about improving a blade for me...

I seem to recall Nathan saying that the excellent blades are out there, but they are VERY rare... I've not come across one yet.
 
Aye Cat,if ye want better blades early in de game,turn on de Blacksmith mod fer sure,I'd be finish'n de main quest wid high level an luck rep an all an de best sword was at KR secret cave Atwood F100 an it took me foreever tew get it <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/par-ty.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheers" border="0" alt="par-ty.gif" />
 
Cat, the Blacksmith is in Dowessen Port, Looks like Blaze ( Nathanie. For a price he will upgrade any blade you have equiped.
 
Not sure but I'd be think'n he respawns on diffrent Islands cause I've seen de bloke on Redmond an Douwsen <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/par-ty.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheers" border="0" alt="par-ty.gif" />
 
Scheffnow disabled the appearance of Excellent blades and pistols, as in to reserve them for quests.
So far as I know, other than the console, the only way to get one is to use the blacksmith.
Though SCM was working on an alternative...
 
NK, I am playing build 111.99e and I am gettting excellent bades and pistols of many tiypes from enemis when I kill them.
 
Hi NK, and what do you think of raising the price of the blacksmith work? 65 gold for a excellent blade is a real deal! hehe
 
Aye it ba excellent deal,in fact he ought tew be pay'n ol' Skull fer lett'n em werk on me blade <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/par-ty.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheers" border="0" alt="par-ty.gif" />
 
It's nice to be able to pay the blacksmith to upgrade your blade, but somehow it's just too easy...

I like the idea of having a quest to find a good blade - I really enjoyed the anticipation of finding a good blade when I went around the game... I feel like it's part of the difficulty to NOT have a good blade right away...

SO I turn off the weapons mod... And now that I've played with the blacksmith mod a bit, I may turn off the weapons mod AGAIN for my next game... <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/dunno.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":shrug" border="0" alt="dunno.gif" /> I just like the search... <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />
 
Aye, scratchin' around fer a half decent blade early in de game be parto' de challenge! In de original game, dat most prolly be de purpose o' de quest tew rescue de man's daughter, tew git Sharp's Sword! <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />
