Message: <blockquote data-quote="Wolfen Priest" data-source="post: 281157" data-attributes="member: 3909">2 things, one related, one notsomuch.Related to the thread topic, I chose 2-handed, because not only does a greatsword have the best damage output in the game (or close enough), but it magnifies a fighter's STR by 1.5x, his highest stat.  Furthermore, spellcasters can cast spells with one, they just hold it in one hand, aside from the 'action' for a round.  Thus is 2-handed fighting the grandest of all the styles.I just wish there were stats for a 2-handed war-hammer!  Can anyone post some?Regarding the argument all the ranger-bashers out there had for a while about the mathematical 'weakness' of TWF in general (but esp. for the ranger, who has limited armor options while doing so):  I give the ranger (in addition to the option of taking bow specialization at 6th level) a +1 to hit at level 8, and +2 at level 10, when using TWF in light armor.  So at 10th level he is not taking any penalties for TWF, ala 2nd edition AD&D.I also thought about allowing him to TWF in medium armor at level 7, but it really makes almost no difference, assuming he/she has a high dex, so either way it matters very little, combat-wise.</blockquote>
