Should the title to this topic be Blades of Avernum?

Are those really all unique items? I'm missing flame sword, alien blade, mauler's armor to mention a few...

It's a good idea though.

I notice that Dexterity can be trained up to 1 in RoR... what's the point? Everyone starts at 2 dexterity.

I believe you get it after killing all the wandering dead (and maybe you have to clear out the evil den type things, you know specter cavern and such) and then go south west to the hill goblin tribe. Near there there is a guy camping. If youve done it right, he wont run and you can train in quick action and riposte.

Dyng - TM compiled the item list, so blame him for any real omissions. :P

However, I'll make this much clear - yes, there are powerful, unique items in scenarios that we do not list. This is because they are listed in corescendata2.txt - they are "basic" items that come with the game. My list only covers items found only in scenario data files.

To put it simpler, I don't believe you'll find any items on that list in Kelandon's HLPM.

Abraxx - I plan on updating this as soon as new scenarios are released. I'm also taking submissions - if my guides start giving misleading information, feel free to post here or PM me and I'll see what I can do to fix it.

Eldiran- You don't train up to level 1 in dexterity, you train 1 level in it. Which is to say, if you have 5 dexterity, you can train up to 6.

EDIT: Oh yeah, and Mauler's Armor isn't on there 'cuz it doesn't exist. It's Mauler's Gauntlets, which are gotten from the chief of the giants in ZKR.

TM lies.

You can purchase up to 1 trained/purchased rank in Dexterity in RoR. This translates to your being able to purchase 1 rank if and only if you have zero ranks either trained or purchased.

Try it yourself - if you give yourself 1 or more dexterity beyond the starting amount when creating a character, you won't be able to buy dexterity from Hana, but if you don't put a single point in it, Hana will sell you that one point of dexterity.

In other words, it's only MOSTLY useless.

The Wizard's Cap is found in the southeast corner of the second level of Vahkos' lair (the area with the respawning spectral warriors). You have to jump off a huge cliff and fight a Lich to get it.

The Razor Plate Mail is worn by Lord Maynard. You have to kill him to get it.

Dyng, that's in corescendata2.txt.

I'm not going to put every powerful item on the list, just the unique ones.
