[QUOTE="da chicken, post: 258095, member: 5634"] [B][/b] Most towns IMC's don't let you wander around with a Greataxe, flaming or no. They tend to frown on any weapon they see, which is why there are so many dagger +1's floating about. The lethality of a Greataxe to a standard Commoner (2-5 hp vs 1d12+1.5xStr) is such that making it magically lethal doesn't change much. I was referring to any day an adventurer could expect an encounter, not any day an adventurer would be in town. Besides, an unloaded M60 is a club and a loaded M60 is a Wand of Lightning Bolts. What we're talking about is the difference between having the safety on or off not being loaded or unloaded. In an adventure setting, you never really want the safety on. [b][/b] True. However, I'd argue that given the context of time the text was published, it would be reasonable to assume it should include 'xx/+6', 'xx/+7', etc. They couldn't say "overcomes all DR" because then it gets by 'xx/-' and would be worth more than +1. Haven't seen it. That would still make mine (3 types, standard action) +2. Better than the +1 modifiers, worse than this +3. [/QUOTE]
