Erosion of wooden daggers

I seem to recall that even though elven daggers are technically prone to erosion, most sources of burning/rotting don't affect weapons. Thus, except in a few very unusual circumstances, elven daggers are effectively erodeproof. Can someone confirm this? -- Killian 02:50, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

I have not confirmed it, but from tests in wizard mode it seems probable. I could not rot an elven dagger by hitting brown puddings, though I could corrode an orcish dagger by hitting black puddings. I could not burn an elven dagger with a fire trap nor a wand of fire. In frustration I had a thoroughly burnt, thoroughly rotted elven cloak and two undamaged elven daggers. --Kernigh 04:08, 28 November 2006 (UTC)
