I'm not gonna argue the cost-effective point, but if thats the way you feel (or can prove), then shouldn't you actually consider the case where the weapon (sword only?) has an enhancement bonus higher than +1*? With a +2 enhancement bonus, you never achieve equilibrium because you're moving +1 atk/+1 dmg into just +1 AC.moritheil said:Personally, I lean towards allowing the masterwork bonus to hit while the magical bonus is fully transferred to AC, but only because defending weapons need help to be cost-effective.
* As you've stated, you'd be moving a +1 dmg into +1 AC while maintaining the +1 atk.
