Tongs are commonly used for picking up items which are otherwise dangerous or undesirable to pick up with one's hands, as is common in a smithy. They appear in Ultima VI, Martian Dreams, Ultima VII and Ultima VII Part Two.
Description[edit]
Tongs are mainly a tool and less useful as a weapon, but if being caught unarmed, they can be used as an effective makeshift weapon. On the Mars of Martian Dreams, tongs are an important tool. They are are absolutely essential to handle radium, since holding the highly-radioactive metal in bare hands is a massive health hazard. They do not, however, function as a usable weapon in the Worlds of Ultima installment.
Effectiveness as a Weapon[edit]
- In Ultima VII Part Two, a pair of tongs has a damage of 6 and a reach of 3.[1]
