Tenderfoot Thahd Anak Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 I'm doing another play through of Exile 2 and there is one thing that has always bugged me. These items that even when identified only say their purpose is ???. What gives? Is there a list somewhere that explains exactly what these things do. Such as Wand of Vorb or Asp Gloves. Some items seem only to poison and disease your party. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Randomizer Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 Most of those items tend to have effects that you really don't like. The Wand of Vorb increases monster's health is one example. Jeff does mention it in Patrick's Tower. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Alorael at Large Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 I thought that one was the Wand of Carunnos. I don't remember what Vorb does, but I'm sure it's equally unhelpful. —Alorael, who remembers all the way back in E1 when the useless wands just had a range of 0. But at least you could recharge them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hatchling Cockatrice Randomizer Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 Maybe Vorb damaged you instead of the target. I haven't played Exile in years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Mea Tulpa Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 Carunnos was the one that healed monsters. Vorb I believe damaged the user. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tenderfoot Thahd Anak Posted January 20, 2011 Author Share Posted January 20, 2011 Yeah vorb just seems to damage or disease me. I thought maybe I was using it wrong or something. What about Asp gloves? I thought they might poison me but I don't see any effect. I did find out why my hair was falling out lol. Stupid radioactive bars.

Garrulous Glaahk Cryolemon Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 I think Asp Gloves have a chance to poison you and are cursed. The radioactive bars randomly disease you I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Easygoing Eyebeast The Mystic Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 Isn't there a bow that uses two arrows when you shoot? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tenderfoot Thahd Anak Posted January 20, 2011 Author Share Posted January 20, 2011 Well the Asp gloves aren't cursed the have 1 Def a value of 20 and are magic. The ability is ???. No encumb at all. They might randomly poison you but I haven't worn them long enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Mea Tulpa Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 I believe Asp gloves increase the damage you take from poison, or maybe it's increase the levels of poison you receive each time you are poisoned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well-Actually War Trall Ishad Nha Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 In Blades of Exile, items are supposed to have the ability to conceal what they really are, even when identified. Conceal Ability is the name for this, as I recall it did not work until the community fixed it in the Open version. This is what the BoE version was based upon, only it works in actual practice.

Some items seem only to poison and disease your party. I've started one here:http://miscrpggames.weebly.com/exile-2-compendium-of-knowledge.html Here are some of the ??? items which have plagued Exile gamers in the past. Serpent Robes - Increases the level of poisoning a poisoned weapon inflicts by ONE (ie. the enemy is poisoned for an additional round, amounting to approximately 12 extra damage) Aspskin Gloves - Increases the level of poisoning a poisoned weapon inflicts by ONE. Note that the effects of the Serpent Robes and Aspskin gloves are NOT cumulative Asp Gloves - Infrequently poisons the wearer while in *combat mode* Amulet of the Cobra - Increases the level of poisoning a poisoned weapon inflicts by ONE. Note that the effects of the Serpent Robes and Aspskin gloves are NOT cumulative Amber Periapt - Reduces the levels of poisoning inflicted on the bearer. This is very hard to quantify. However, the reduction is levels is less than 50%, but large enough to render the bearer immune to poisoning from swamplands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
