@Yogi969 even splinter weapons with mage weap, spell channeling, if it's a 25-30% splinter, and decent with say fireball or something, even -1 FC is okay, won't sell for as much, but with town bonus it makes it easier to recuperate the faster casting loss! but yeah, Brittle is the #1 ruiner in a splinter weapon, or imbued. Also, only certain weapons are people looking for splinter on (unless it's uber with 30% splinter 50+fireball/lightening, HLD), but things like Bone Harvesters, War Forks, and Hatchets, Butcher's Knives, Kryss, Wakizashi, (Bokutos people like even though it slightly ruins the stun with nerve strike) things like lances, scimitar have useless specs on the weapons, so no one wants them, you would rather downgrade to a lesser modded weapon to get the special attacks you need, than to have things like scimitars
