The best way to get the gems you want is to get one of those in trades that works with gems. They can be mined in the same mines as the ore.

The mahogany is east, by the Shar Tribes, but I have never seen it yet. They're too tough for me still and I'm getting pretty high in season now.

((two areas south, 1 east, and then south from there a couple areas it should be))

I think if you can silver-coat or titanium-coat your weapons, you should be able to have some pretty good ones, but it seems now it'll be difficult to get the titanium, though silver still isn't so bad.

Here is a recipe for each type of coatings, which can be found when looking at the coating forges, plus i'll tell you what's in those ingredients too.

Silver Coating
----------------
-A bronze weapon
-enchanted silver ingots (smelt them and get an enchanter to enchant them)
-Holy water (should be able to get from the enchanter clerk in trades)

Result
-Good vs Undead (not sure exactly how good)

Titanium Coating
-------------------
-An iron weapon
-enchanted iron ingots
-essence of power (glass vial, from the gem crafter or one of those guys around there. dust of adventurine from gem makers. cranberry juice from up there in ravenwood and get a baker to make juice or try it yourself)

Result
+2 damage

Titanium is much harder because you have to go far to get the cranberries (i never made it past north ravenwatch yet to get the berries) and then you need to get a gem maker as well to help you. Both require enchanters though.

mohogany is in the shai burial ground and you need to go thro the shei camp to get there.

its not posible unless ya do the quest or can sneak really well.

then there are the spirits in the burial ground to deal with.

they require non crafted magic weapons or spells to damage em.

Daldar and Feng (both 13th level fighter types) tried to go through the Shai area and nearly got our asses handed to us (They list as "moderate" BTW). They're hard buggers to hit (I think I've got a +18 on my primary).
Also, I have my sneaky skills maxed, get the +4 ranger bonus, and 2 of the 4 still spotted me. Of course I've noticed that the computer tends to roll a lot of the same numbers in a row (like getting 2 or 3 crits in a row on a crit:20 weapon), so this is not conclusive evidence.
Please tell me they have a weakness (like against magic or something).

Wizard for hire.

Went along to Shai very often with Elranien to assist her in her chopping. Much experience with Ghosts and Undead. Will work for food.

IC: As long as I'm not the food. I've heard things about you boy. ((

((Smithboy: the Shai are south, east, south, etc. of Seaside, not north.

My advice... get Blind Fight.

The guys were not concealed though. They had good armor on it seems and a great attack bonus.

That's my idea down the drain...

Sure, that's a lot easier BUT further away, very much further... and to make the trip far more efficient (Sp?) I'd hire some dwarves or Half-orcs as mules. Then you'll get far more mahogany home AND a very fun trip there and back!

So the anwser to the question about the What is a better weapon is that you need 20 get along with every little monster in the game?

Do crafted weapons work if you place a spell on them ? say something like Dark fire?

and while were at it whats the best Katana/Warhammer you Dudes and Dudets have seen out there? my eys so far was a bow with +1 enhancement and 1d6 fireammo (unlimited)

And is it true that the only crafted Full Plate that has +1 is Minthrill

and just one more question, Please bare with me. is there or is there not mithrill in dasaria? because i think i saw one in the Dammed woods, you know were (theres a corner there with about 12 Black Wolfs, nasty buggers got me with knock down every time)

Thanks for the advice so far!!! and to those that have been most helpful in the game =) its really nice how this server community pull on one chain when need be.

Is it really? how about... hmm ... i duno aa .. Greater sanctuary? or is the tree in the midle of the camp? hahahaa. but seriusly id really like to make a bow out of that material (would be nice to see what it can do)
PS: i dont use anything unless its crafted by my self or some one in the game great and nice enough to help me do it.

well except for enchanting my iron Warhammer havent got anyone to do that yet, (well anyone that had a good possibility of getting it right) the best was hmm... i think it was Cirran but he only had i think 15-20 but as i still find it dificult to make an other ill rather not take that chance just yet... but Cirran maybe a bit later ok?
