[QUOTE="kreynolds, post: 218959, member: 2829"] Actually, he doesn't. The "flaming arrow" arguement doesn't reinforce his "free action activation" arguement at all. The descriptions of the enhancements are very clear. It wouldn't make sense if you had too. Sure. But it's amazing how those other enhancements [b]don't[/b] function exactly like the others, so what's your point? Too late. :D And your comment on this shows your lacking in basic reading capabilities, for if you had any, you would have noticed that I agreed with others and also explained myself, but you seemed to miss that part. Or you could just cut out the middleman and get the Elemental Aura enhancement if you're that worried about creatures with different resistances. That's why I prefer really big swords. :D True. But when you go camping, you aren't trying to start a campfire with a [size=4][b]flaming longsword[/b][/size]. Somehow I doubt that a Bic lighter would deal 1d6 points of damage in the first place, so there really isn't a comparison. That's also why we have flaming longswords. Makes it much easier. Exactly, and I have a feeling that a flaming longsword will generate much more heat than a frickin' lighter. We're not talkin' about lighting a cigarette here. That argument wasn't made "for" the argument. It was made "against" it, and you're right, it didn't work at all. Bet me. Find the closest tree to your house and try it. If the sword fit in that perfectly, the pressure inside the scabbard wouldn't be equalized to the pressure outside the scabbard, so you wouldn't be able to draw the sword in the first place. Now that would be kinda silly, wouldn't it? Not really. [/QUOTE]
