Weapon enhancing not on a weapon


Advice


Does anyone know of any official Paizo items that add enhancements to weapons other than Deliquescent Gloves and Demonic Smith's Gloves?

Thanks.


I keep a list of ways to add this sort of thing. It is a little out of date.


You can add Starfinder Solarion Weapon Crystals to that list.
To keep with the title, a photon crystal on a scalpel might allow you to operate through mundane armor. Same with all types of hypos.

I'm thinking photon = brilliant.

Thank you. I was hoping there would be more spells or items, but it was a long shot. Good list however!


Oh, there are lots more spells. Those are the ones which are closest to weapon properties.

Is there a particular spell list or type of weapon buff you'd be concerned with? Listing every weapon buff spell on every list would be a daunting proposition.

Elemental weapon damage, particularly cold or electricity...and the burst equivalent

Bane (can choose creature upon apply/cast)
Spell Storing
Holy
Vampiric, Greater

And basically, anything I just hadn't know about that is useful/cool.


Off the top of my head fiery runes, holy ice weapon, umbral weapon or flame arrow add elemental damage. The elemental spell metamagic feat can change the elemental damage type.

Holy ice weapon is not entirely unlike the holy property, and (greater) named bullet is like bane but stronger and even more specific. There are some ranger anti-favored enemy spells which can be not unlike bane.

A magus using spellstrike can do something like the effects you list and do them better than the weapon properties as long as their spells hold out.

I think Gisher listed all the effects which actually duplicate existing weapon properties though.

Other useful/cool effects ... Look up emblem of greed for one. Versatile weapon too. Elemental aura, fire shield, caustic blood and vampiric shadow shield don't buff your weapon exactly but do add elemental damage. Sometimes a lot of elemental (acid) damage for caustic blood. Weapon of awe is one I remember as being useful to an inquisitor.
