All weapons shall have the same average DPR output? We already had this in Moldvay Basic: each and every weapon did 1d6 damage. Different damage values were an optional rule.And why do you call the other version "math-sloppy"? Different damage ranges and DPR-values are not a sign of sloppy design. The only effect is that charopers may not have much choice in which weapon they use. But by looking at DPR exclusively, they already make a choice: damage values are more important to them than visuals or style. The rest are consequences determined by the decision.I find the complaint that they want to use weapon xyz but is has to have the same mechanical values as klm strange. If it's so important to you that your character's great sword looks like a greataxe, just call it so. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f60e.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":cool:" title="Cool    :cool:"  data-smilie="6"data-shortname=":cool:" /></blockquote>
