Whoops... stupid slow enworld. The benefit of swords is that they're more accurate (hence the +3 proficiency bonus to hit) vs axes/hammers (which tend to be either high crit or brutal, which cause more damage).

For most PC's once you begin moving to higher levels you're less concerned with what the dice damage is as the amount you add to the rolls is much higher. Also most of the time powers have a cool effect with them (like righteous Brand giving a +3 to hit bonus for another PC) that only work when you hit. So I tend to find hitting something a bit more often is better than doing a bit more damage when you hit.

This is of course my opinion and certain PC's are much cooler with the big weapons (see Basher and Tarrk for good examples).

And... mastering axes and or hammers only has a str and con prerequisite. Blades have dex...

Ozymandias79, I think you're up.

Honestly, I have no idea if you're right or not, Lou, but it sounds good nevertheless, so go with it!

 

[Lou]

Unless I count wrong IC, then Ozy is the only player who hasn't posted since the last DM post.

 

[Leif]

OOC: Sounds right to me. We'll give him another day or two. Or, I may get a wild hair tomorrow.

 

[Ozymandias79]

[Lou]

That's what I thought we were doing, waiting for the DM to finish the round....
