Holy Sword Spell; Casted from a wand

I've noticed that it doesn't apply to the weapon the "holy avenger" property. But just the VFX.

I've tested on a Kama and on a Spear. From Lawful Neutral PCs.

More test to come:

1) The kama PC, is a dual wielder fighter.

2) The spear PC, got the monkey grip feat to use a shield.

Any known issues? :huh:

As far as I've noticed it works, but you need 'high' UMD to be able to utilize its capabilities, I believe it still uses the old UMD code for some reason to determine whether or not the holy avenger works as opposed to the SoZ UMD system.

To expand on this for those not familiar with vanilla, UMD DCs for items were largely based on item base cost.

In practice, anyone using the wand could use it on a mundane dagger. However you'd need 30+ to use it on a purple weapon...or take at least one paladin level. ;)

Yes, it uses the old UMD list: http://nwn2.wikia.com/wiki/Use_Magic_Device

To get the base price of your items, go check them with the merchant in the OOC room, he shows the true prices according to the engine. (which are undoubtedly stupid)

Awakened, from the dark, dark slumber!"

Considering how the spell can turn any mundane weapon into +5 vs evil, +2d6 divine vs evil, I'd say it isn't the worst spell in the game. :P

Considering that no Paladin should EVER be able to use this, yeah...let's cheer up anyway :)

Considering that anyone else BUT a pladin using a Holy Avenger has long been considered obscene.

Working as intended I'd say.

Reminds me, we really need to get some new Holy Avengers out there using the new anti-umd script. Then laugh when Blackguards try and use them to find they slip out of their hands. *evil laugh*

Ah, but then we would need to implement Paladins of Tyranny or Slaughter... they don't work for Blackguards. :D

I expect my blackguard levels to be substituted with an actual spellcaster class then. :angry:
