Re: Let Ash auto-ID rods if you're wielding a cursed weapon

I feel like the argument here is more of a convenience thing - where does consistency come in? Rods aren't weapons...

i did it anyway, since convenience is nice.

No, but they're things you 'w'ield. Magical staves aren't weapons either, but Ash auto-id's them.

But this just makes you really uncomfortable "oh no, there are all these nice rods, but I can't use any of them".

It's not like those rods exist less, or are less nice, if they don't ID.

An ash worshiper who finds multiple nice rods can choose to uncurse their weapon slot.

FR remove rods or make them non-wieldables
