    Flurry of Blows and Shuriken

    Hello,

    I've search how in proto.tab weapon are autorized to use flurry of blow (like Kama, Sai Staff and Shuriken) and nothing so i've try to found a file that spoke about it i'vent found :( so as Shuriken in AD&D rule are a Flurry of the blow weapon and not in ToEE someone know where found the weapon associeted to Flurry of Blow and how add shuriken ???????

    See : AD&D
    kama, nunchaku, quarterstaff, sai, shuriken, and siangham are Furry of Blow Weapon

    the reason is (and this is from the above link)...

    A shuriken is a special monk weapon. This designation gives a monk wielding shuriken special options. A shuriken can’t be used as a melee weapon.

    I guess they're special cos you can draw them faster than any other thrown weapon

    If i understand correctly is cause Shuriken in ToEE is Ammunition not Weapon (i see that in proto.tab)

    Sad cause in AD&D rule is not the case you could use Furry with it :'(

    but thx a lot for the response :) i'll not continue to try to solve the problem cause it must be an core programm mod to do and i'm not able to do it :d

    Tsk, tsk. Ted... Btw. I remember a passage from "The Study
    of Language(TM) by George Yule.

    "A phone call:
    Man: Hello, hairdressers, what can I help you with?
    Woman: I'd like a blow job.
    Man:...
    Woman: No, no I mean a blow dry"

    [insert crappy jingle here]

    Shuriken's in ToEE are bugged to hell and back, in the RAW (Rules As Written) as Cujo stated, shuriken can't be used in melee, in ToEE they act like stackable daggers - they can be equipped one at a time (or two at a time with 2 weapon penalties), used in melee, and thrown, and you would only be able to throw more than one per round if you take the quick draw feat to make equipping the next one into a free action.

    And needless to say crafting shurikens is broken completely, as you can craft a stack of 50 shuriken for the same price of crafting one shuriken, and when using crafted shuriken in combat, they become non-magical versions whether they hit or miss, subsequently having your shuriken weilder pick these shuriken up again, or having another PC give them to him/her causes the entire stack to be rendered non-magical as well because the game will automatically stack them, and not take the crafting they have recieved into effect.

    I have no doubt that fixing the shurikens multitude of problems will require a hell of a lot of work by someone capable of hacking the hardcoded stuff in the temple.dll - well beyond my abilities, and for that matter beyond the abilities of all our other curently active modders as well.
