Title : Mage Weapons
----------------------------------------
Almost universally reviled by players I made some updates to mage weapon in
lieu of a more complicated rework.
* A mage weapon has an INFINITE duration. If you greatly increase your
spell skill level then you should resummon your blade to ensure it has the
best value but a few points wont move the needle.
* A mage weapon will now receive its bonus damage up to two times per
round (was 1) better benefitting Wu-Jens who take attacking and
Chronomancers.
* A mage weapon will do somewhat more damage.
Given most mage weapn users have 1 attack it is likely still a weaker
spell pick (for wu-jen) but might be more worthwhile if you have
attacking.
For classes that do not have to pick a mage weapon spell because it comes
with their kit this is a modest increase.
Chronomancers who innately have more attacks and a mage weapon in time
scythe will get the most benefit out of the box.
Feedback is welcome.
