Since the sunken sword exists, and there’s a few other status weapons, I had an interesting arcanium weapon idea, especially for one time find weapons like the rusty zwei and.. ew. The sifenya.
…Uniques? Lost arcana weapons.
“Various relics, unorthodox or not, scattered around the war seas by time and anguish. They have long since held the old power of their past owners, if not weakened.”
Basically, these are arcanium weapons, duh, either found as a rare boss drop by some, or found in the world somewhere, these have a latent magic built imbued into them, such as a copper hammer charged with lightning, or a large caligraphy pen still dripping with residual.. ink.
Yep, these CAN contain old magics too, paper, ink, gold, hell if you want to get REALLY crazy, maybe some of them could contain lost magics, or even CURSES if the wielder is canonically dead.
What they do? well, if these weren’t getting reworked, you’d also technically have another magic, if not only two moves with it, but.. well, god knows what the new rework is, so for now, these only have the idea of applying the respective magic’s debuff, such as burning, paralyzed, etc.
Now, if these wouldn’t make sense lorewise, EG “b..but magic dissipates over time no matter what!!”
okay.
Find them in the dark sea, maybe specific islands with structures and at certain layers
Nothing’s stopping arcanium weapons from getting imbued with magic pollution after all
I think
