Best Magic Weapons? <SPOILERS>

[endurstonehelm]

What do you think is the best weapon?

Sun Blade is an early achieveable weapon that only costs 13,500 once you have the materials for the blacksmith to make it (and it can be a dex finesse weapon). Holy Avenger costs 35,000 and is only slightly better than the Sun Blade.

Later on, you find legendary weapons such as the Defender long sword and the Axe of the Dwarven Lords.

What do you think are the best weapons? For str, I will go with the two legendaries I mentioned. For dex, I will go with the Sun Blade and the Clan Sor'el dagger.

There is plenty of options and that is amazing.

Swift is very nice if you can handle the penalty.

I was pretty happy with that pink halberd with shock damage and alternativly an ordinary green hammer vs slimes and skeletons.

Later on i replaced the pink halberd vs one with poison damage.

But still it feels like 2-handed weapons do a bit little damage compared to 1-handed weapons. I expected they would do more, considering you sacrifice the protection of a shield or a second weapon.

I have since recovered Torga's Pyre from the Burning Ambition quest in the underdark. This is a pretty powerful weapon (finessable +4 weapon with lots of fire damage).

First of all.... to say early game and ONLY 13,500 in the same sentance kills me...lol I found the parts LOOONG before I could afford it. That being said :

I love for my warrior #1 Eldingar 2h slashing with a 33% chance to AOE 9 - 18 dmg to all nearby enemies over 10 seconds. After that and I may like it more is Titan's Maul 2h maul with 100% chance to gain titan's boon increasing size by 15% and str +4 for 60 seconds meaning it's always on during a fight... nice weapon really.

On my Ranger hands down : #1 Bow of Hungering 2- 10 dmg, +2 to hit and dmg, 8% chance to paralyze, 5% chance on hit to do 6-20 necrotic dmg and heals character for same amount. An amazing weapon I love it.

On Illydia - I just can't get rid of her stock Sylvan bow because of its +20% to healing.

Hommet - I ended up going fire dmg after I found the Energy Staff - 1-6 dmg +1 to hit & dmg (who cares I don't melee with him) but... +3 to ALL fire damage (so my cantrip gets a boost too) combining that with the Ember Loop ring which is +3 to ALL fire dmg and with Elemental hood which adds +5 to ALL fire dmg (but 25% vulnerability to necrotic..eww...still worth it.) Then finally my worst piece is the Dabbler's ring that has +1 to ALL fire dmg and +1 to cantrip dmg. Now, that's what makes the Energy staff my fav for this guy.... otherwise not sure I have others to choose from but nothing as complimentary.... yet. =)

This game is fun... I don't know what all the crying is about.

That's a great setup for Hommet. Kudos.
