[QUOTE="WalterKovacs, post: 4550434, member: 63763"] Weapons by highest damage: 1 handed: battleaxe, flail and warhammer (PHB) or broadsword (AV) 1H sup : Waraxe 1d12 > 1d10 bastard sword So, there is a higher damage output 1H weapon then the highest damage 1H heavy blade. 2H: There are 2d6 items (maul/heavy flail) and 1d12 with high crit (great axe and heavy war pick) The greatsword is 1d10 by itself When you get into superior quality you have the full blade at 1d12 high crit, but there is also the executioner's axe that adds brutal 2 to the property and mordenkrad that has 2d6 with brutal 1. Ultimately, if you don't care about the prof bonus difference (i.e. nearly all your powers are only using the weapon as an implement) you can find a non-blade that does more damage. This is important since some of the implement based powers use [W] as part of it's damage. [/QUOTE]
