** New weapons with higher wield requirements have been added to the treasure system
*** The higher wield-req melee weapons will simply do more damage than existing weapons. These include melee weapons with a 350 wield requirement.
*** The missile weapons and magic casters will gain a damage bonus based off a specific elemental type. For example, a 290 or 310 wield-req caster might receive a damage bonus to all fire-based War spells. These include Missile weapons with a 315 wield requirement and Magic casters with 290 and 310 War Magic wield requirements. For all other spells, it would act the same as a standard caster.
