Many people seem to discount the value of delay when it comes to choosing a
weapon. Ever since obtaining dual weild I have used two dwarven axes and
let me tell you I'm a friggin cuisinart. I regularly group with a Ranger
who dual weilds a whip and a combine LS. I ALWAYS end up tanking when I
play anthem (this is with the ranger casting spells as well). The ranger
can't taunt anything off me for more than a couple of rounds. I recently
obtained a Pugius dagger (very nice!) and have been unable to sell my spare
dwarven axe. Most people prefer to stick with the heavy...slow mino axe. I
try and tell them the dwarven axe is lighter and faster...but they hear its
dam is 6 and usually turn their noses up at it. If only they knew...

If you see me on the Rathe and want an axe...give me a tell and I'll give
you a deal :)
