It just struck me that I've never really thought of this before. Which weapons that you can gain in the Lone Wolf adventures give bonuses of some kind? From what I can remember:
The Magic Spear - Harms undead
The Sommerswerd - +8CS, Double damage vs undead, and deflects magic.
The Dagger of Vashna - Harms undead, gives a CS bonus (+5?) against Darklords.
The Jewelled Mace - Aids against Cryptspawn, and some other undead.
The Silver Bow of Duadon - +3 to a bow shot
The Bronin Warhammer - +1CS
The Ironheart Broadsword - +8CS
Helshezaag - +5CS, +7 vs Darklords, causes 1EP damage per turn to Lone Wolf.
Skarn Ska - +5CS
Grand Master Kai Weapons - +5 CS, various bonus CS depending on the specific weapon.
So, what am I missing?

There's that warhammer that can be found in book 26, it gives a +5 CS and it can be used in place of you Kai weapon.

The Skarn-Ska has special bonus against different kinds of enemies, added to the basic +5, making it stronger than the Kai Weapons of the New Order Series but it remains weaker than Sommerswerd. There's the Death Staff from book n.16, that gives you a +10 CS bonus, but it's an evil weapon and sucks your energy and your soul, too, if you use it too often !!! It's the strongest evil weapon, the only that can compare with the Sommerswerd... .... Nooooo, the Sommerswerd is the BEST !!!

I don't know, but maybe we can also add the two magical arrows (I don't remember their names), the one that can be use against Gnaag (book 12) and the other one against Sejanoz (book 28). They both have the power to kill ennemies that are invincible to regular arrows.

Yeah, I'd forgotten about the Deathstaff - Been ages since I played Book 16. But then I discovered the working copy in the Inner Sanctum just now, and played through it... Until I reached a certain section, in which I... erm... Encountered problems.

Question ;D : where can I get this Bronin Warhammer?I've played 1-15,19-22,but no Bronin Warhammer so far. "There's the Death Staff from book n.16, that gives you a +10 CS bonus, but it's an evil weapon and sucks your energy and your soul, too, if you use it too often !!! " - wow,that's better even than Ulnarian which can only gives +9CS when fighting underwater.I must have it later.But Helshezag drains our EP as well,so no wonder the Deathstaff will suck energy and soul.May I know the limit before we actually affected by the staff? "I don't know, but maybe we can also add the two magical arrows (I don't remember their names), the one that can be use against Gnaag (book 12) and the other one against Sejanoz (book 28). They both have the power to kill ennemies that are invincible to regular arrows. " - The arrow that kills Taktaal,not Gnaag,is Zejar-Dulaga.I don't think we can take that after we kill Taktaal. I wonder why Dagger of Vashna doesn't give any bonuses unless against darklords while Vashna is the mightiest of all darklords.Isn't that odd?

To get the Bronin Warhammer, go explore Castle Taunor instead of joining the Archery Tournament in Book 6.
Of course, this means that you miss out on the Silver Bow of Duadon, but it might be worth considering doing if you're using the 'dual weapons' rules that we talked about here a while back. That +1CS could be very useful then.

I know it's a little spoiler, but you can use the Deathstaff only in book 16 for the 2-3 last fights of the book. And as for the limit before you get affected by the staff, well, let's say that it is pretty thin: as soon that you use it, you lose EP. It doesn't worth it when you have the Sommerswerd. ;D

--- SPOILER --- You can use the Deathstaff only for a couple of combats; it is the book that tells you to lose some EP after the combat, there's not a rule as that of the Helshezag (-1 EN for each round). Well, it is a powerful weapon too, and consider that the first time i played The Legacy of Vashna I did not have the Sommerswerd... I thought the Deathstaff was very cool The bad thing is that in the same adventure you lose the Helshezag and the Dagger of Vashna, if you carry them...

I think someone said it's because something in book 17 would be too easy if LW is equipped with Darklord weapons. I'm hopefully receiving my copy soon, so I'll be able to check this first hand.

I liked the Dagger of Vashna and the Helshezag, because i did not have the Sommerswerd the first time I played the book and the Helshezag gave me an extra bonus in combat... what a pity to lose it if you don't have the Sommerswerd...
