The only thing I see is what does "the strongest of players" imply? and "greatest of the elven archers" imply?

It would mean a ranking system based on either statistical or acknowledging system for determining who are the strongest/greatest players....and if being specific...while using the specific sword/bow.

Statistical system referring to your idea of "weapons that had killed a certain number of enemies" meaning logs of mobs slain (like what Sagaert22 said)...and Acknowledging system referring to an idea of voting by players (good for servers)..

Example of Statistical log:

Dwarven Battleaxe stats:

Enemies killed:

Orcs killed-1321 Goblins killed-542 Trolls killed-99 Wargs-265

Players killed:

Evil players-125 Good players-2

Hired Units killed:

Self hired Units: 2

Allied players hired Units: 0

Enemy player hired units: 1236

(Having a mob specific stats will enable you to specify: Trollbane....or Goblin Cleaver......or The Sword of Treason[like too many allies killed???]....or....a notorious name for a sword that kills anyone in their path[too many kills in the self hired units]............)

This ranking system would then give you the "opportunity" to name the actual weapon with a name that it will get stuck with for the rest of its use..(not life). It would probably better if after reaching a certain high level in the ranking system...(whatever sort of system it is) by being one of the strongest/greatest....one can name/rename the sword/bows with a permanent name that it will retain for a long time(note..not forever)

After a certain amount of "long" time the name can be renamed but only with a high requirement such as very, very high xp...or whatever high requirement it is.... for, however great Narsil was, Anduril, was the greatest sword wielded (by the good side) during the War of the Ring. What I mean is that even though it is Elendil's sword and only Elendil's heir is the one allowed to use it....the deeds Narsil was used for is a entirely different story than Anduril's...different names for different times...

Kudos to you!!

You can't damage your own hired units
