Weapon Special Qualities List

[Asandir]

Is it possible to just add new Special Qualities to the Weapon Special Qualities list without adding them as part of a new weapon?

Right now there is Blocking, Brace, Deadly, Sunder, Trip, etc. in this list. I have a 3PP product that adds half a dozen more. Can this be done or not?

Thanks.

you could add them under the item power, that is where they have the keen/bursting ect to add to magic weapons. if then just create a magic weapon, and should be able to add them to the weapons without making it magical or masterwork if desired.

Yes special qualities are just tags and they can be dynamically added/created by users. On the weapons tab under "Special Qualities" hit the "Edit" button and the top most selection is "- New Tag -" so place a check mark next to it and press OK.

Then in the new window you have to fill in new information for you new tag:
Noname2.jpg
Tag Unique ID: a 10 digit unique ID for this tag.
Name: The name that gamers will be able to see/read.

Press OK and then do a Test Now!. After it compiles select something else in the editor and then re-select the weapon you created the tag on. It will now show you have one Quality with the new name.

But then it can't be distributed as a dataset right...
