• ironwright's holy flares - ironwright's script gives holy flares when an item is blessed (no matter the profession) as well as a selection of two or three other flares (for example, acid/impact/web).Cognitive learning theory in the classroom the other flares are activated by casting a related spell at the weapon after it has been blessed (e.G. Hurl boulder for impact). The flares last until the bless wears off.Cognitive learning theory in the classroom this flare occupies the script slot, not the flare slot.

• knockout flares - rare specialty flare which can be placed on weapons that primarily do crushing damage, such as maces, handaxes, and mauls, as well as UCS gloves and boots.Cognitive learning theory in the classroom the flares always targets the victim's head. If the head is sufficiently wounded the crush damage from the flare may be applied to the chest.Cognitive learning theory in the classroom any part of the body may be hit for the flares to activate. Besides the crush damage applied to the targets head, the flare can also impart a status effect on the target, such as the rooted condition or the prone condition.Cognitive learning theory in the classroom

• polearm rebalancing flares - also known a "poleaxe flares." they inflict a critical from the crush table as damage when they flare, and have the potential for a second "flare" which trips the target.Cognitive learning theory in the classroom if you have 50 ranks of MOC and the flare activates, you have a 33% chance of also doing the second "flare". If you have 100 ranks of MOC and the flare activates, you have a 66% chance of also doing the second "flare".Cognitive learning theory in the classroom it is possible to bless weapons with this flare (that would be blessable without it).

Often found on various creatures throughout elanthia, feras weapons are often deadly weapons that almost always flare when striking.Cognitive learning theory in the classroom the flares are lightning based and generally start at very high damage and degrade after each use. A feras weapon has several levels of flares and the user can tell what level the weapon is on when the weapon is used.Cognitive learning theory in the classroom

Flares can be added to weapons that do not previously have flares by a variety of methods. There are some methods that do not require a merchant, such as the paladin spell sanctify (1625), the cleric spell bless (304) (when cast by a cleric with 40 or more ranks in the cleric base), or the minor elemental spell elemental blade (411).Cognitive learning theory in the classroom each of these spells have restrictions on which weapons they can be cast on and still add the flares. To add flares to a weapon that is magical or non-blessable, one would require the services of a special merchant.Cognitive learning theory in the classroom A merchant might add standard flares (which would be heat, cold, vibration, lightning, or acid flares). Very rarely will they add other, non-standard flares.Cognitive learning theory in the classroom

Flares can be added to armor, often referred to as reactive flares. Generally, these flares are considered defensive in nature, as they only react when the character is struck by an attacker.Cognitive learning theory in the classroom however, certain combat maneuvers will implement these flares in an offensive manner, such as sweep, bearhug, and shield bash. Reactive flares can be added to full armor, shields, and piece armor (leg greaves, helmets, etc.).Cognitive learning theory in the classroom it is believed that all armor flares are both reactive and offensive in nature, in that they may flare when the wearer of flared armor is struck, and they may flare when a combat maneuver that can use armor flares is used.Cognitive learning theory in the classroom piece armors will only flare when the body part they cover is struck or the combat maneuver makes contact with the covered body part -- for example, when a character uses sweep, the legs make contact with the enemy, and therefore if the character is wearing flaring leg greaves, it has a chance to flare.Cognitive learning theory in the classroom
