this might be intentional but i don't see it serving any purpose other than confusing players

In the showroom right now:

2   syzygy shiv     2-3 0   0
2   precious knife  2-3 0   0
2   broken bottle   2-3 0   0
2   rusty spoon     2-3 0   0

Four of the same thing. All with 1.0 chance of spawning too. Yet they're useful. You can buy two weapons at once on a new bot. Two bots can get two weapons every refresh. I figure crystal sword and double axe, though the duplication might not be intentional, might be able to serve more or less the same purpose.

well i wasn't really counting those as i'm pretty sure those are intentional, but i guess your reasoning justifies the duplication of "low-level" weapons in particular. Thought it wouldn't require much to camp it in this particular case.

We need to make it easy for the newbs so they stay and play long time. :)

The way I see it, it just adds a bit of flavor to the game. It's true that they're effectively equal weapons, but I don't think having both takes away from anything or adds any confusion.

Ya, flavour for the win

Nawwwww... Flavour is right Nos ;)

Flavor. USA. USA. USA.

Think the question has been answered, so you may lock this one to prevent it from growing into some off topic language/spelling war between various English dialects
