Hi

I think it's a shame that dancing weapons are turned into gold when worshipping gozag

That's all I had to say

Bye

It's considered "balance". And also "adding an exception for this isn't worth it, just like with hides".

Personally, I'd rather that they basically be counted as creatures with no corpse, and their "weapon" drops afterwards. The Gozag interaction seems a little finicky when you consider that weapons wielded by others are not goldified.

It's a minor issue, so I'll look at it from a flavour point of view: Gozag certainly prefers the gold over some weapon.

I think this issue can be sidestepped to a certain extent. In my last DD game I had a few corpses generated in V:5 which I bribed, but I don't know if it were my allies, foes slain by allies, foes slain by neutrals, allies slain by neutrals or whatever. So my suggestion would be to make it consistent - if a player worships Gozag, corpses and remains of *all* monsters are turned to gold (unless they are summons).
