Hello, I'm starting in a new D&D at level 5 and we were told to create +2 weapons for our characters. One of my fellow companions created this weapon.
"Moradin's Knuckle" +2 Holy Undead-Bane Heavy Mace of Disruption ((+8 to hit, 1d8+5 dmg [[+2d6 against Evil, +2d6 against Undead, Undead must succeed a Will Save of 14 or be destroyed. These do stack, so against an Evil Undead, the creature must make the Will Save or die and if they pass the save, they will take 1d8 bludgeoning, 4d6 holy +5 damage]]))
I'm arguing that this is a +7 weapon, however they are saying it is a +2 weapon. Here is my break down on the value
"Holy is a +2 enhancement, Bane +1 enhancement, Disruption is another +2 enhancement and +2 on top of that makes it a +7 weapon, way beyond what we can get and is valued at 98,000 gp."
They also said that the bonus on a weapon is determine by it's special abilities with the highest one overwriting the lowest, for example a flaming fire burst longsword would get +2 bonus to Attacks and damage since fire burst is a +2 ability and the highest special ability on the weapon. I doubt this is true but is their any sources I could use to disprove this.
A D&D player in my group says that effects that give the same bonuses stack for weapons such as flaming and flaming burst, is this true?
Edit: Example 1d6 from flaming + 1d6 from flaming burst = 2d6
Thank you for your time.
