Message: <blockquote data-quote="theNater" data-source="post: 4359364" data-attributes="member: 62560">The racial weapon feats are better than Weapon Focus, even in epic tier, for any character that uses both kinds of weapons.  This mostly means asymmetric rangers, but can also mean characters who want access to a wider variety of weapon feats and enchantments.  They're feats for people who want to be flexible.Remember, once you hit paragon tier, it's only better than Weapon Focus for characters who use both weapons.  Fighters and paladins are often using either a shield or a two-handed weapon, which means they'll have to spend actions to switch.  The eladrin have an advantage in such situations, because it is easier for them to qualify for Quick Draw.Don't underestimate the value for multiclassing characters, as well.  An Eladrin wizard/fighter or wizard/ranger can take the wizard of the spiral tower paragon path, grab a pushing power or two from the second class, take the Spear Push feat, wield a longsword in one hand and a spear in the other, and have a lot of fun.  Thanks to this thread, I'm considering building such a character.</blockquote>
