    Hi there

    I have been playing for a while with the Flail of Pleiades as weapon.

    One evening i did save and quit the game, when i loaded the game next day the weapon was gone.

    I think i might have had the weapon removed from my character, because i regen faster without it (due to curse), when i did save.

    If it is a bug or not is a matter of point of view, but i did have the weapon when i saved, and afterwards not :-(

    Is there any way to get it back? (hacking the save file maybe) ?

    Just to clarify, with 'removed from my character' i mean, i had it removed from the weapon slot, but the mouse pointer did hold it, so i did not get the curse penalty.

    Good find. The item does stay in your hand, even inside the options menu. It probably doesn't get saved to your pointer since it assumes it's either in the world, inventory, or character sheet. Saving and Quitting causes it to become essentially erased.

    As for the cheating it back part, no guarantees. Might want to look for a savegame trainer in the Mods section or wait for the mod support patch.

    The easiest way to hack items back in is to just modify the crafting recipes. For example, temporarily add a recipe for the grinder that turns 1 lutefisk into the flail.
