Weapons, Armor and Items with Special Abilities
Name Description
Arcane Gem Found as loot on Controllers. Tailors can use an Arcane Gem on exceptional quality items to make Arcane clothing. Arcane Gems can be used to recharge Arcane Clothing that has run out of charges.
Bag of Sending This is a reward you will receive from the Ambitious Solen Queen after you completed the quest to kill 5 Solen Queens. This bag has to be charged with Powder of Translocation (see below) and will allow you to send one item or one stack of items directly to your bank box. Sending will use up one charge. You cannot send so-called 'cursed' items like power scrolls.
Bola bola With 4 bola balls bola ball, 3 pieces of leather and 60.0 minimum in Tinkering, you can make a working bola which can be used to dismount someone from his mount. Cannot be used while you are mounted or have your spellbook equiped. Bola balls can be found on Orc Bombers and Savages. Failing to make the item will result in a loss of leather, never the actual balls.
Bracelet of Binding bola One of these Bracelets can be bound to another Bracelet of Binding. The Bracelet will allow easy travel from the location of one Bracelet to the location of the other Bracelet. Can be found on Black Solen Warriors and Red Solen Warriors.
Clockwork Assembly One of the required items to create a Golem. Comes as loot on Iron Golems.
Crystal Ball of Pet Summoning This Crystal Ball allows you to summon a linked pet to your location. Can be found as loot on Black Solen Queens and Red Solen Queens.
Enchanted Apple This item is made by cooks, when eaten it will remove any curse from your character including: Mortal Strike, Strangle, Corpse Skin, Curse, Weaken, Clumsy and Feeblemind.
Evil Orc Helm Found as loot on Orc Lords. When equipped the wearer suffers some Karma loss. Strength is increased with 10 points (even if this would raise Str over 100). Either Dex or Int loses 10 points (depending on which of the two is the highest). When the helm is removed the stats return to normal. The Karma loss is permanent.
Firehorn
A nautilus shaped horn that can be used as a weapon. When used, the horn consumes Sulphurous Ash reagents, and does damage to an area on and around the target. The damage is based on the barding skills of the person using it. More information on Firehorns can be found here.
Fruit Bowl This item is made by cooks, when eaten it gives a bonus to stats similar to that bestowed by the 'bless' spell, duration approximately two minutes.
Gargoyle's Pick Axe Gargoyles and Stone Gargoyles sometimes carry "a gargoyle's pick axe". These pickaxes extract the double amount of ore before they break. These pick axes promote a colored ore vein to the next higher level. A bronze vein will give gold ore, a verite vein will give valorite and so on. This only works on colored ore veins and does not permanently change the type of vein. There is a possibility that an Ore Elemental will spawn. Miners beware, these monsters are extremely tough. This pick axe can also be received as smithing bulk order reward.
Glacial Staff
Glacial Staffs are found as loot on Giant Ice Serpents. Every staffused to give the owner access to two out of three effects. The type of effects one had access to were determined at random when the Ice Serpent and staff spawed. The following effects are known:
  • Ice Ball - Des Corp Del. Does about 10-15 damage to the target.
  • Ice Strike - In Corp Del. Drains all your mana in one go and does damage depending on the mana consumed.
  • Paralyze - An Ex Del. Will temporary freeze your opponent.
Currently the Glacial Staves have the following properties: Hit Harm, Mage Weapon, Physical Damage, Cold Damage. All the properties seem to have random values.
Grapes of Wrath This item is made by cooks, when eaten it gives a 10% damage increase for 20 seconds with a delay of 120 seconds before another may be eaten.
Orcish Bow These bows could once be found as loot on Orc Scouts. They are normal bows with 2 extra modifiers, 25% Damage Increase and 70% Durability.
Orcish Mask Orc masks come as loot on Orc Mages and Savages. While wearing this mask, orcs will not attack you. They do not protect you from Ettins though. They are not 'newbiefied,' but like regular orc masks they can be 'blessed' with a clothing bless deed. When you attack an Orc, or steal from an Orc, or allow your pet to do damage to an Orc (all while wearing the mask), the mask will explode and you will receive damage from the explosion. You may still attack another player wearing an Orc mask and not risk it exploding. Everytime you put on the orcish mask, you lose some karma.
Power Crystal One of the required items to create a Golem. Comes as loot on Iron Golems.
Powder of Translocation This is a reward you will receive from the Ambitious Solen Queen after you completed the quest to kill 5 Solen Queens. This powder probably allows you to charge a bracelet of binding, the Crystal Ball of Pet Summoning and the Bag of Sending.
Savage Kin Paint

A skilled cook can create savage kin paint from a tribal berry and some flour. You must have an 80.0 skill in Cooking to do so. Note that the tribal berry is not edible, so you need not worry about mistakenly double-clicking on them. You can apply savage kin paint to your skin to get the same looks as a savage. A pot of paint can only be used once. The paint will stay on for one week of play time, providing you don't die. When you die, the paint stays on the corpse's skin. An oilcloth can be used to wipe the paint off. In the 2D client your skin will be grey, in the 3D client your skin will show the typical savage markings. Tribal berries can be found as loot on savages.

Applying the paint will make you lose some karma. When you are painted, savages will not attack you. If you attack a savage while painted, the paint will burn off, doing about 50 points of damage. You cannot wear a mask of orcish kin when you are painted, so you will have to take sides in the savage vs. orcs war. You can, however, wear an evil orc helm while painted.

Bug: Make sure you are not carrying any honey when you make the paint. The paint will combine with the honey and thus be detroyed.

Savage Mask A tribal mask worn by some Savages. Unlike the regular tribal masks, these weigh in at 2 stones rather than 4. There are 29 new hues available. The red mask in the bottom right corner is the 'old' red tribal mask.
Dragon Scales and Sea Serpent Scales

Various monsters give scales as loot. Scales can be used to make scale armor. Scale armor has special defensive attributes, depending on the color. To make scale armor, you need to use a Dragon Smith hammer, which can be made by any tinker with 40 in tinkering skill. Scale armor can only be created by an experienced smith, as it is even harder to make than plate armor.

Soulstone

A Soulstone allows you to transfer all your skillpoints in any given skill from one character to another character on the same account. It only works once every 24 hours though.

A Soulstone is tied to your account, so there is no point in buying or selling one, as it only works on the original account it was redeemed with.

Soulstones could only be gotten by pre-ordering the Samurai Empire expansion.

Tribal Spear
Comes as loot on Savage Riders. There's only a small chance that the spear will not break upon looting it from the Savage's corpse. The spear acts as a regular spear with 25% damage increase.
Zoogi Fungus Black Solen Warriors and Queens and Red Solen Warriors and Queens carry this mushroom. Zoogi Fungus also grows inside the Solen Hive. Zoogi Fungus can be transformed into Powder of Translocation by a Solen Queen. 200 Fungi gives 100 measures of Powder.
