Gnome weapons are [[Artifacts]] that provide a [[Hunting|hunting]] attack that can only be used against non-player [[Denizens|denizens]]. While the damage of these weapons is not quite as high as some other artifact types (namely the [[ArtifactWhips|artifact whips]] or [[Wonderwand]]), they have the unique ability to be upgradeable with up to nine gearboxes which will split the damage of the attack into equal portions. This means that a gnome weapon with nine gearboxes attached will hit the target ten times, each hit having its own critical roll and potential to splash onto the next denizen in the room if the first has been killed.
Gnome weapons are [[artifacts]] that provide a [[HuntingGuide|hunting]] attack that can only be used against non-player [[denizen]]s. While the damage of these weapons is not quite as high as some other artifact types (namely the [[Artifact Whips]] or [[Wonderwand]]), they have the unique ability to be upgradeable with up to nine gearboxes which will split the damage of the attack into equal portions. This means that a gnome weapon with nine [[#Gearboxes|gearboxes]] attached will hit the target ten times, each hit having its own [[Critical hit|critical]] roll and potential to splash onto the next denizen in the room if the first has been killed.


==Mechanics==
By default, all gnomeweapons will have a type of 'unblockable' only and offer a base damage amount of 925, but can be enhanced up to nine times with [[#Gearboxes|gearboxes]] that increase the total damage by 25 and add one equal split into a new damage type. (Source: [https://forums.lusternia.com/discussion/comment/186079/#Comment_186079 Forum comment]) Multiple gearboxes of the same type can be attached to the same weapon.
For example, a fountain pen with both an excorable and divinus gearbox attached would do 325 unblockable damage in one hit, then 325 excorable damage in a second hit, then 325 divinus damage in a third hit. There is only one attack message shown, followed by any number of critical rolls, such as below.
With a flourish of your arm, you point a mechanical fountain pen away from you, ready to strike.
A stream of ink imbued with bursts of steam, waves of darkness, and beams of holy light sprays from a mechanical fountain pen and covers an aetheretic slivven.

| This mechanical feline looks alike to its biological kin, except it has been put together from various metal parts. Its body is a large solid sphere, while the head is a similar smaller sphere. The four limbs have been crafted from tightly wound copper wire coils, ending in a loop where the paws would be. The wire also runs in a frame around the body and head, keeping them in place. Two prominent metal ears sit atop the head, and a pair of remarkably lifelike eyes stare out at you. Fine wire has been used to give the feline a set of long whiskers. A long tail made from a flat metal band completes the cat, ending in an upturned curl.

| Made mostly from intricate black lace, these gloves cover the hands and closely envelop the lower arms of the wearer. They are fingerless, with the front part being crafted out of leather with holes for each finger to go through. This allows the wearer to easily grip and manipulate things with little to no obstruction. Upon the top of the gloves sit decorative gears and cogs in brass and bare metal, and the right glove also carries a series of clockwork mechanisms to resemble a timepiece.

| This tophat is made from brown suede. It has light brown stitching that runs in mechanical patterns around the hood. Giving further depth to the pattern are brown leather and brass studs. A leather band is also wound around the bottom of the hood, and has small hoops that hold a key, some bullets, and a few miniature vials with an unknown liquid in them. From this band a long brown feather also elegantly points upwards.
