Full Version: Orcichalcum question;

Just curious, folks:

Would ammunition--that is, bullets-- made with, or of orcichalcum be worth the expense?

I'm afraid that all I know about it is that it's used in making foci....

In a word, no!

Well, aside from costing insane amounts of money per clip, I think they'd actually do LESS damage than a normal slug.

None of the materials used in the stuff are particularly zomg deadly bullet material, I'd think. Of course, I don't know crap about ballistics, so feel free to call me a dumbass.

You know, I've never seen orichalcum jewelry. Enchanted, yes, but just plain mundane jewelry.

Depends on what you Enchanted them into.

You could hold the enchanted cartridges in between your knuckles and punch someone with them and if they were weapon foci you could get extra dice.

You could use the bullets as triggered anchoring foci...theoretically you could have a suspension or solution of powdered orichalcum that could act as a potion. <pictures someone shooting themselves in the foot to gain the benefits of a healing spell>

Been playing MGS3, I see.

Unless theres something allergic to Orichalcum, they would probably do jack-all.

One of my PCs actually has an orchalchum ring. It was a christmas present.

Thanks, folks.

That's about what I figured, but I wasn't entirely certain.
