Hi.
In Imperative, you have "Strong against goblins" and "Strong against wyrms". And, my question is, what about "Strong against <you can place character name here>"? It would be a list of all hold characters (like in character main window - at the right) :)
Then, you could make swords like "Roach Smiter" or "Slayer Smiter" or... whatever :P You could choose more than one of characters (no in one command, but in several of them of course) ;)

From one side, I think this is quite good solution.
But then, when I imagine these holds people will make... The horror... The hell... Below the ninth circle mind you :)
Like everything else, that would be exploitable (Well, I am one of the exploiters either way) but I honestly think that's not bad solution.

Seconding this request.

Oh, and if X Weakness is used on monsters, it makes them share the same weaknesses as the selected monster. If you do that, you could even take out the standard weaknesses.

Why not change it to the more generic (x% damage against monster/monster class y)?

Hmm... I like this idea. Implement the "monster class" bit by making monsters with this command set to another monster take the boosted damage that would be done to that monster, and then apply THEIR percentage to that. For more win, let X be a variable.
