Unlocking the Secrets: The Monster and the Magical Blade

Once upon a time, in a mystical land of enchantment, there existed a fearsome monster that struck terror into the hearts of all who encountered it. This beast was known as the Shadowfiend, a creature of immense strength and dark power. Its existence was shrouded in mystery and whispers of its evil deeds spread throughout the kingdom. Many brave knights attempted to slay the monster, but all were met with failure. The Shadowfiend seemed invincible, with its impenetrable scales and razor-sharp claws. Its glowing red eyes haunted the dreams of those who had survived an encounter with it.

So it very much seems like monsters that previously had the Magic Weapons trait are being switched to doing force damage instead of bludgeoning/piercing/slashing damage. What are your thoughts on this?

Now, the ONLY damage type in 5E, that doesn t have to worry about getting blocked resisted, most of the time out side of DM fiat rare things, is Force Damage. So Gorg just smiles with a bloody lip, proceeds to spit the blood back in his demonic opponents face, and only suffers half damage because Barbarians, when Raging, have Resistance to Slashing Piercing Bludgeoning damage.

Its glowing red eyes haunted the dreams of those who had survived an encounter with it. One day, a young apprentice named Oliver stumbled upon an ancient tome that spoke of a magical blade hidden deep within the forbidden Forest of Shadows. Legend had it that this blade was imbued with a power capable of vanquishing even the most fearsome of creatures.

The monster and the magical blade

I've tried mana potion, berserk, and electric, and he walked off. Considering literally all of it is magic, maybe such vague requests (With only one solution) is not the best approach.

The jackass wants ice or fire. For some reason those are the only two they consider "imbuing" their blades.

Except for the guy who wants something to rub on his "sword" IF YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN. For some reason he always gets mad when I give him acid, poison, or necromancy potions.

Turns out he wanted a potion of libido, but I really think he should have tried my recommendations.

Yes, fire worked. Had to save-scum it to figure out because silly me thinking Mana (literal magic) Poison (what a witcher would actually use) and lightning (because why not) were all acceptable.

Blade with magical power refers to ice, fire, or the one which pays the best: Lightning. Give the dude lightning, with end game trading, you can get near 150 for that potion. This customer tends to come very frequently, so it might even be a good idea to give him lightning 3, fire 2 or something like that.

DONT give him acid. The blade will become useless if he puts acid on it, it's common sense.

You probably should sell him a potion of safe sex. There are far too many bastard swords in the world as it is.

The request isn't actually that vague. You messed up, misunderstanding what the customer wanted. If you don't understand what it means to imbue a blade with magic, you aren't supposed to get it right yet lol. You'll learn. There aren't many potion effects, it's not hard to figure out, but you WILL get it wrong from time to time.

While it may not be obvious to you, many people find it obvious because many people play other games, like fantasy RPG's and the like. Most fantasy gamers instinctively know "Mana potions" and "berserk" potions have a positive effect on the user. Therefore, they would be AWFUL effects to add to your blade, and wouldn't make any sense in this context. A "berserk-imbued sword," for instance, would make the opponent you're fighting MORE DIFFICULT to kill. The mana potion would recharge your foe's magical abilities.

Understanding the effects of the potions helps in this area, and there's a wiki that can help you if you have difficulty knowing which is which. It IS obvious when you understand the purpose of the potions, but it's a game about trial and error. You're supposed to mess up and move on sometimes.

OP specifically said that the customer rejected a lightning potion, though. OP clearly misspoke (He said "electric" potion) because he was mistaken on the type of potion. That customer WILL accept a lightning potion. I give them that potion exclusively for the profit.

Yes. Acid on a sword = damaged sword. This is common sense.

If you're making a joke, that's pretty funny. If you're serious, no ♥♥♥♥. When was the last time you became horny after eating a handful of fertilizer lol? That's the type of growth the game's talking about.

Driven by a desire to rid the kingdom of the monster's tyranny, Oliver embarked on a treacherous journey through the dense forest. Every step was a battle against the twisted trees and lurking creatures that inhabited the darkness. But the young apprentice pressed on, determined to find the magical blade. Finally, after days of searching, Oliver stood before the blade. Its beauty was awe-inspiring, adorned with intricate carvings and glowing with a radiant light. With trembling hands, he reached out and grasped the hilt of the sword. As soon as Oliver touched the blade, a surge of power coursed through his veins. He could feel the magic within him, empowering him with confidence and purpose. Armed with the enchanted blade, he set off to confront the Shadowfiend. The battle that ensued was epic, with each strike of Oliver's sword clashing against the monster's impenetrable scales. The ground trembled beneath their feet as the clash of their powers reverberated through the air. But Oliver fought with a determination fueled by the knowledge that he possessed the one weapon capable of defeating the monster. Finally, after what seemed like an eternity, Oliver struck a decisive blow. The magical blade pierced through the Shadowfiend's armor, shattering its dark power. With an earth-shaking roar, the beast crumbled to the ground, defeated at last. The kingdom rejoiced as news of the monster's demise spread far and wide. Oliver became a hero, his name celebrated throughout the land. But he never forgot the power of the magical blade, and the responsibility that came with wielding such immense power. From that day forward, Oliver dedicated his life to using the sword for good. He became a protector of the kingdom, ensuring that darkness would never again reign. The monster and the magical blade became a legend, a story of bravery and the triumph of good over evil, passed down through the generations. And so, the tale of the monster and the magical blade serves as a reminder that even the most formidable of foes can be defeated, and that heroes can rise from the unlikeliest of places. It is a testament to the power of courage, determination, and the belief in something greater than oneself..
