The keen edge spell doesent work on warmace. I had someone cast in on me and it didn't work. I dont know if this is a bug or on purpose for balance reasons.

I recall looking at it and deciding against it.

Isn't it a direct copy of another default weapon that already works with this spell? (excluding the damage type which is really only a boon when fighting undead and some other things immune to criticals)

It is pretty much, in damage and effect, same as scythe. This does not mean I personally favor either having access to keen edge in efu range, but on one with large blade it makes very much sense, being a slashing weapon with an edge. While my personal major decision is mechanical balance, it does not fall much shorter to the intended use of keen EDGE, which is meant to work on slashing weapons - one that warmace is not.

I was under the impression that this was a bug mainly because the spell Keen Edge is supposed to be modified for EFU to work on all melee weapons.  I stand by the fact that this is in all technicality a bug. Also Keen edge works on other blunt weapons. I recall on my wizard boxer character being able to cast keen edge on my gloves. If Keen Edge works on all these other blunt weapons that lack edges why shouldn't it work on warmace?

"Keen Edge: duration is turn/level, and can be used on all melee weapons (regardless of damage type)

Locking, no bug here.
