Relic Weapons
Relic Weapons would be out in the world that you can find. Only one of each and they always drop on death making them risky but powerful to use.
Imagine you find a Sword thrust into a stone. You manage to free the Sword and if you inspect it you see that there is some sort of glyphs or something on the sword. If you figure out what that means it leads to steps to perform. If you do it changes from a Weathered Old Sword to a glistening blade of some unknown metal that burns with a blue flame. It'd have similar ranged but alternative version/effects of a swords normal skills.
The goal of Relic weapons would be interesting and a bit stronger but not overpowering. Something like a Scythe that drinks the blood of enemies during a Blood Moon, so sometimes it's a lot stronger, or situationally it's stronger, but generally it's just another end game weapon or looks cool.
If you die and don't recover it then it enters the world to be found again.

ZacharyThis is an excellent idea. We need more contested objects in the PVP servers.
I think you balanced out a powerful relic weapon by making it a drop on death item. You should be able to track it with a crafted late game item that requires a resource to function. It should not have the pinpoint accuracy that the Eye of Twilight provides for Soul Shards, but something more akin to V Blood tracking.
This Relic Weapon should only be allowed in a player's inventory. Perhaps, make it so the weapon is destroyed and cannot be repaired once it reaches zero durability. A global message could broadcast and announce its rebirth in Vardoran at which point it must be tracked down again. It cannot be in the same place each time though.
I love this idea. -

PneumaGreat minds think alike! I wrote a suggestion titled "Legendary Weapons" here as I too agree there needs to be more cool objects for vampires to fight over or interact with. I think Weapons would fit the bill, I hope one of these can get implemented. I dont think it would be hard for them to add from a technical perspective which is a plus
