sime people told me: if it's augmented correctly, frying pan will become the most powerful weapon. but how, i try 5 sharpening augmentation and it still weaker than the harbinger. how could it be great weapon?

[JohnDoe]

That's either a blatant lie or the furthering of a myth, bogus stuff there.

[Arseface]

Yeah, the Frying Pan is meant to be a booby prize. It has no real value at all.

[Necromancer11]

Actually, the frying pan can be very useful. Because it has so many augmentation slots, you'll be able to restore health or mana very quickly if you manage to get 5 health or mana augmentations. It helps a lot on a strict will using character.

That frying pan is the bane to my Fable TLC existence.

yeah, of course i know about restoration system using frying pan, but that doesn't make it a POWERFUL weapon.

[Necromancer11]

I never said it was powerful, I said it was useful. I like to have it because I usually don't go through a game on TLC using all 3 hero disciplines. I use 1 or 2, and if that doesn't include melee, the frying pan is very helpful in restoring health and mana. That's also why I buy the master longbow on a melee or will game. I won't be using it to fight, but its 3 augmentation slots help with health and mana restoration.

Like Necromancer11 said, its only really useful for mana/heath augmentations. Its just ment to be amusing, but that amusement quickly wears off after you kill about 3 bandits with it, or until you realize how ineffective it is compared to other weapons you own.

In my opinion, its best for a pure will user. Just equipt it with all mana augments (easier said then done) and your mana will replenish itself really quickly. It doesn't really replace potions when your in the heat of battle, but it sure is handy. But if you use melee weapons a lot, then its not a very good choice.

[lavenderbolt]

oh, i found it very powerful when attach 5 silver augmentations and counter white balverines, apart from it, it's a terrible weapon

[JohnDoe]

Yes, because of the augment response armour rating of the balverines, silver augmentations prove to be quite useful, particularly against white balverines.

Other augments effect damage differently than sharpening augments, which compounds the damage. If the other augments compound damage as well, a frying pan with five silver augments can deal 155520 damage to a white balverine (before factoring Hero strength) while a master greatsword with only three silver augments would deal only 15390.

But, if it doesn't compound, the same frying pan would only do 520 damage while the same master greatsword would do 1140, which sounds more realistic to me. But then it's LionHead so there's no telling.
