Any melee weapon better than Scimitar/Rapier for Team Feats?

[LevelSix_SYSTEM]

Think i seen a feat that does something on crits? Havent seen Khopeshs in game yet, is there anything better than the 18-20 (x2) weapons?

Lions claw is 15-20/x3 with feats.
Generally every melee should have outflank anyways and seize the moment users want a two-hander or a pole weapon.
The question at hand should be structured better. What exactly are you trying to do?

Just seen the Elven Curve Blade in Olegs shop, it is 2 hander and still finesse with 18-20 (x2) but cant figure out what weapon focus it is... No 'Curved Blade Weapon Focus' i can find...

[LevelSix_SYSTEM]

Nvm forgot you have to have proficiency before Focus feat lol... Can anyone list any good Elven Curved Blades (or other finesse with 18-20 (2)) that you've found in game plz?

that list i not full as it doesn't include DLC items and some of the weapons can't be found in the game, but most of them are there and obtainable

No problem it gave me a good idea what i wanted to use. Dont suppose you have a link for all the Armors in the game too do you?

Ahhh Got it TY, the Blue made it hard to see

Fouchard is pretty much best weapon type in the game.It has 18-20/x2,its long reach and has pretty powerfull examples in game.

Best weapon? No. That would be lion's claw/Bane of Living/Redeemer/Vanquisher/The End
Fauchards are good for trip/bite builds for the most part(Mastery).

Lion's Claw falcata happens to be very similar to the Serpent Prince fauchard. Fauchard leads with reach, higher base damage and Acid damage bonus, but Claw is one-handed.

Also Serpent Prince doesn't need any DLCs and is the best early mid-game weapon - if you're lucky to get it.

Bane of the Living isn't as good as it sounds.

Certainly, Vanquisher greataxe beats them all.

bane of living is pretty good... so long as you don't fight undead with it.

It's pretty hard to compete with 15-20/x3 threat. Lion's Claw wielded in two hands is essentially a 1.6 damage multiplier from crit two handed weapon. Serpent Prince is marginally better because of a minor damage boost and has reach.

Vanquisher is a 1.4 crit multiplier weapon that adds +10 flat damage. Theoretically if +10 damage and the base dice difference is less than 14% of your total expected damage per hit either of the other two weapons is better. A 2H fighter with Vanquisher absolutely will want it more than the other two options, but a class that doesn't add an extra 1/2 Str mod might manage to beat the damage buff with Claw or Prince.

Of course that would require ludicrous amounts of optimization.

Vanquisher is the best dps on paper no matter what. The end will outperform it with DR/- enemies. Lion's claw is mostly amazing for saint/scion as it would be able to utilize weapon enchant fully going bane/axiomatic/+1 and still getting a +5 15-20/x3 weapon.
Redeemer is in close contention due to insane amount of bonus dice it has.
