Best 'utility' magic weapons.

[RangerWickett]

I'm thinking "screw attack bonus; I want to do fun things."

I have an executioner assassin, and I can take Master of Arms so I can use all sorts of weapons. Then instead of buying a +3 ki focus, I'll buy a bunch of +1 weapons with interesting traits. Any suggestions?

For one, I've got Dragonmark of Storms, and so with a lightning bola I can slide someone 1 square and trip them, which is a nice trick after I've used my assassination encounter power.

I like the Hedge Wizards Gloves. Gives you Mage Hand and Prestidigitation as standard actions. Two of the most fun abilites in the game.

I like them too, but I was looking for weapons. Do any low-level magic weapons have useful properties or powers that could come in handy? Like, if I had a golf bag full of different weapons, each for a different occasion, what's my putter, and what's my 9 iron?

I remember looking at this some time ago, but I don't have my books handy, so I'm not 100% sure. However, I recall that my conclusion was that if you're using the Ki Focus' enhancement bonus, you can't use the weapon's magic properties.

It might be worth picking up a +2... can't remember what it's called. It's a weapon enchantment that has an At-Will standard action: make a melee basic attack against a creature within 5 squares. It was in the AV or AV2.

Dynamic weapon (lvl 6)? Your putter is your nine iron, and your garrote, and your dagger, your innocent looking walking staff...

Possibly off topic as more of a feat and power concept.

But i am taking Knockback Swing feat with Rushing Cleats, mix it up with Stoneblessed Goliath PP Threatening Reach, and a reach of about 3/4.

And Polearm gamble as well.

But moving into a room and pushing all enemy back 2 squares as soon as they move within 4 squares of me, sounds like fun.

Could be push 3 with a Controlling Weapon I think.

Of course slow them down with Sudden Roots as a warden and they can never get to you.

Rushing Cleats and Controlling weapon to make that slide actually 3 squares.
Could be really dangerous if the terrain is nasty.

Hidden would be quite thematic, as a few others like Subtle.
