Meteor Hammer bug in Orul's Crypt

[zubenelgenubi]

Hi,

Reporting a bug with the meteor hammer.
The special attack stopped working in Orul's Crypt after doing the sanctuary,mausoleum and laboratory.
I tried changing hands,moving party around and have another member try,but to no avail.
I finished the game since but after leaving those areas only the normal attack worked.
It did work before going into those areas.

kind regards

The "bug" is that you used up all the charges of your hammer. You have to recharge it by using a red crystal shard if you want to use the special attack again.

Ok,i didn't see any charges when i first started using it so i thought it was unlimited.

thanks!

If you find an item with a special ability, you don't know whether it has limited or unlimited charges until you equip it on a character who has the required skills points. In the case of the Meteor Hammer, both Heavy Weapons 5 and Fire Magic 1.

I think the number of charges on an item should always be visible, so you know whether it has limited or unlimited charges *before* spending any skill points.

PS:
I didn't realize that the Meteor Hammer's name is a pun:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meteor_hammer
That explains why it doesn't look like a hammer
