Weapon Abilities - Acid Washed*
Swords made from two or more metals are acid washed in order to bring out the contrast in appearance between the two metals. Although typically performed on bladed weapons, some experimental craftsmen have attempted to mimic the process with other metal weapons and armor. Acid washing creates elaborate and beautiful patterns on the surface of the weapon. Items created with the acid washed quality gain a +4 bonus on saving throws made against acid, rust, or disintegration.
Restriction: May only be applied to metal weapons and armor.
Requirements: Craft Masterwork Weapon, Artisan Craftsman
Price: Additional Cost: +100 gp (light and weapons), +200 gp (medium and heavy); +5 to Craft DC of masterwork component.
