And, so? It's not like it's hidden. Lore or identify or even just trying to wield it will tell anyone that.

You're saying that despite it obviously being magic, despite the obvious rightness of making it what it should be - as all these other projects the last year or so have done with all the other items and descriptions in the game - you think the extra three seconds a looter uses by having to examine a weapon rather than see it flagged in the corpse, is important? And even were that true, that only means it will stand out as against non-magic weapons. So many weapons have the magic flag - especially weapons an ap would use - already. So you wouldn't know anyway.

I'm not seeing your point, honestly.
