Talk:Twinkling Titanite/@comment-1687225-20120914142027

One thing I don't like about Dark Souls is its vagueness regarding upgrades. What exactly defines a "normal" weapon differently from a "special" weapon? If we're going to talk about availability, Shiva of the East sells plenty of "special" weapons. It can't be the weapon having been imbued with some sort of special damage, either; the Black Knight Greataxe and the Silver Knight Spear, for example, do not deal special damage. The assigning of whether a weapon gets to be upgraded down the normal path or uses twinkling titanite seems almost completel arbitrary.
