If your +X to strength is high enough, you don´t care. If you have especially low strength, and you get a penalty, the axe suddenly gets better, as all rolls of 1 default to 1 point of damage... so the axe is better for the extremes...I still believe, the spear/trident whing is annoying, as well as the morning star not being versatile, and the quarterstaff being versatile. (if it was just called staff, I would no be so annoyed... see shillelagh). Overall however I am ok with the list and hope there is more in PHB to come.And we have to face it: some weapons just have to be the worst, some have to be the best. A d8 damage spear would have been really nice. But hey... still eagerly awaiting the release.</blockquote>
