Best weapon for an avenger

[Flipguarder]

Seems like a simple question but is it? What do you consider the best overall weapon for an avenger and does it depend on the type of avenger played.

I'm expecting a whole lot of Fullblade as your answer. Guess we'll see though.

Given that you roll twice to hit when you activate your oath, I find Fullblade to be a less than ideal weapon. Rolling twice to hit gives a greatly increased crit chance, and I tend to lead towards Executioner's Axe for Avengers. Also, You can't go wrong with a Mordenkraad.

Daggers; with two-weapon feats and the daggermaster paragon path.

Executioner Axe or Fullblade for the high crit was my thought, aye. Between the two it's +1 hit vs. +1 damage per W, basically. So from there it's what feats you might be able to use, perhaps.

I personally don't like the Mordenkrad, but I know others do.

The reason I said fullblade was purely because I've seen about a half dozen Avengers in play. And they all use Fullblades. I assumed it was some sorta Union requirement.

Good point on daggers and two weapon opening, though. Snick.

Oh yeah, you do sign the Avenger multi pantheon club entry forms and they do require the fullblade .... but occasionally somebody rebells and they have to be hunted down "one on one" hunts just aren't effective enough to be a sufficient deterrent so we bribe the laundromats to dose all your clothes with skunk juice if you are seen trying out other weapons... that really keeps them inline.

Not the best weapon for a crit-fisher. If I wanted to know that, I would've asked. I'm just asking for a simple aveger, no messed up Optimized craziness.

I love the fullblade, but I watch too much anime too...

The executioners axe and dwarven hammer would probably be just fine too.

Yeah, one of those 3. You want the biggest die possible.

Weapon Focus is more useful than weapon expertise.... (I consider both bland as well bread and water)
