Umberlee Trident - Too Good to be True?

O-louth

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.

@SpiffyMeister

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.

Cojak81

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!
