Haha yeah I always think of NIMH too. I'll copy the text from the Wiki page: "Its name originates in National Ignition Facility, the world's largest and highest-energy laser. The National Ignition Facility is an attempt at creating a micro-star the size of the diameter of a human hair inside a chamber by bombarding it with 96 intense laser beams. The resulting fusion reaction, if it could be repeated say, 10 times per second, could create enough energy to power the US power requirements 1000 times the current levels."

Lots of new updates. You can see that I uploaded 13 CM Patch Legendaries and also updated a couple of the older downloads, Essence of DarkMatters and Sereish Steel of Thunder, completing that section. See the mightiest of the mighty weapons that the CM Patch team cooked up for your characters to lay waste to your foes with. That means all Legendaries, Sets, and Unique Armors are in the database now. That just leaves unique weapons to fill out. Hooyah's already got started with the CM pistol Sand Eagle as well as some Fallen Angel Uniques (Raging Ire, Serpent's Tongue, Ice Flash, and Thain's Axe). Myself, I'll probably start with tackling CM Patch uniques soon.

I think we can thank Thorin Oakenshield for the suggestion for that name. It was part of the CM Items Mod so I always wanted to use member suggestions for items whenever possible. I think I was all set to call it "Sling Blade" since that is indeed the model's design.

Found the Development Topic for this set. It was before my time, but turns out it was a purely new creation, not an Ascaron set. No mention of Enya though. Always interesting to read these things... some heated discussions back in the day about what is and isn't overpowered, etc.

File Name: Light of Earendil File Submitter: Flix File Submitted: 14 Feb 2016 File Category: Community Patch Legendaries Name: Light of Earendil Type: Throwing Potion Class: Legendary Requires: Community Patch 1.50 This item was meant to be a copy of Phial of Galadriel - an item of special properties that Galadriel gave to Frodo Baggins in Lord of the Rings. The original item was a flask filled with water from magical fountain that held the light of a star called Eärendil. Its main purpose was to bring light to dark places and Frodo used it to defeat the giant spider Shelob. That is why this throwpotion has bonuses to light range and is very effective against dark creatures and insects.

Yeah, look in the mod folders in pak\mq\maps\heroes\seraphim There are 3 dds files with the name "seraskin" that can be deleted. You'd also want to go into pak\mq\maps\heroes\seraphim\sets\mystique and delete any dds files that have "seraphim-mystique-helmet" in the file name, Most of the mod works this way. Changes not to your taste can be deleted.

LOL. I have no idea, I wasn't involved in the creation of this one. This is an older CM Patch set, and that usually means it was an Ascaron creation that was simply unfinished on release and just needed some polishing. If we're talking songs, maybe I prefer to think of "The Trees" by Rush?
