Bane: Zek Weapons
All Dark Courage weapons ( first block ) are   [MAGIC ITEM]   [NO DROP]   [Bane Dmg: Zek]   [Race: ALL]
All Black Insanity weapons ( second block ) have improved statistics for   [Delay]   [Bane Dmg: Zek]
Both weapons types do not mention the weapon in it's name and are called only 'Dark Courage' or 'Black Insanity.'
Weapons can be identified to show lore names such as 'Dark Courage Ulak' or 'Black Insanity Ulak.'
Weapons have standard Dmg Bonus, not listed, relative to Weapon Type and Character Level.
Dec-2005: Race and Class information to be updated at some point,
such as the further additions of BER and DRK.

Oct-2006: I hear crazy talk that Bane Weapons are now considered `optional`.

How to make a  Dark Courage  weapon:
* Drunder's Steel (stackable, trivial 193-200) is made in a forge [Tanaan?] by combining:
* Decorin Ore Shard (LORE, NO DROP) from Animated Decorin Blades
* a flask of water
* Animated Decorin Blades spawn only after Tagrin Maldric, the giant troll deep in the Plane of Tactics,
has been aggro'ed. They continue to spawn for the duration of the Tagrin fight, but it seems
only the first several (approximately six) will drop ore shards.
* 'A pulsing blue vial' (stackable, trivial by 165) is made in a brew barrel by combining:
* Valorium Shards (stackable, NO DROP) from anything in the desert of the Plane of Valor
* Celestial Solvent (stackable)
* Dark Courage (no-fail, trivial 11-28, NO DROP) is made in a forge by combining:
* Drunder's Steel (stackable)
* A pulsing blue vial (stackable)
* the apropriate weapon smithing component(s)

How to make a  Black Insanity  weapon:
* First you need a Dark Courage weapon.
* Eriak the ogre gives you 'A vial of black blood' (LORE, NO DROP) when you ask 'What blood?'
Eriak is deep in the Plane of Tactics and just so happens to be in the same room as Tagrin.
* Insanity Fangs (stackable, NO DROP) drop from any of the four types of constructs
in the Plane of Torment. One is needed to brew the final temper.
* 'A pulsing black vial' (stackable, trivial by 162) is made in a brew barrel by combining:
* Insanity Fangs (stackable, NO DROP)
* A vial of black blood (LORE, NO DROP)
* Celestial Solvent (stackable)
* Black Insanity Bows are made in a fletcing kit, all others are made in a forge.
* Black Insanity (no-fail, trivial 11-28, NO DROP) is made by combining:
* Dark Courage (NO DROP)
* A pulsing black vial (stackable)
