[QUOTE="Larrin, post: 5089845, member: 55816"] My break down, just from flavor: Humans actually favor pole arms, mostly halberds and pikes for their generic guards Elves favor bows, using short swords or other lightblades for melee Dwarfs like hammers and axes and shields Halflings favor slings and daggers Tieflings prefer light blades with blades that resemble flames Eladrin like their longswords Dragon born use weapons that look as if they are made from bone, most often heavy blades. Deva's don't prefer one weapon type, they're too solitary to support that sort of culture Gnomes in fourth edition have less reason to like picks, I see them appearing unarmed, but having hidden blades. Shifters are very much in the spear camp Golliaths like two handed weapons, mostly hammers for they're mountainly-ness orc like axes, their warriors will always try to obtain one. high crit weapons of any sort follow in this hierarchy Goblins like spears and cross bows are prized if they can get one, kobolds spears and javelins or slings, lizardfolk spears and blow guns. Ogres like big old clubs, more advanced ones use morning-stars Drow like hand crossbows and long swords/rapiers minotaurs probably like blunt weapons, so hammers and maces thats all at the moment [/QUOTE]
