I have a suggestion for any class that uses 1HD Slash weapons...DWARVEN
AXES!!!! These babies are killer, so long as the creatures u are fighin
don't require a magic weapon to hit them.
Stats are 6Damage and only 26 Speed....and believe me...speed kills. They
are especially effective in conjunction with Dual Wield. I purchased 2
Combine Longswords for my trips to Unrest. But, when fightin "normal"
creatures(i.e. Orcs in High Hold, etx.) the axes are superior weapons, and
noticablly quicker than the Combines. Best thing about them is that if u
hang around Kelethin, you will see them for sale almost every day as they
are found of Lord Darish in Crushbone. I have bought them for as low as 5PP,
and have never paid more than 10PP...that's a bargain for what u are gettin.
So, get combines when u have a chance and if u are fighting many magical
creatures...but, use the axes for everything else. "Dwarven Axes are the
Best Non-Magical 1HD Slash weapons in the game!"--EQ'Lizer web site
