Whats your favorite weapons in D&D?

[tanrel]

My favorite depends on the character I'm playing. Like for a ranger, I prefer a composite longbow with a longsword and a dagger. For a fighter, I prefer A b*****d sword with either a tower sheild or a large steel sheild, with a longbow. With a rogue, it would have to be a short sword or 2 daggers, with a dagger extra for both, a composite shortbow, darts, and a spear.

a kender. xd

I'm rather fond of my home-made, magical claymore mines. Take a sack of steel shot for a sling, place the material component of a fireball spell in the center of the bag and set a contingency spell on it the detonate the fireball if it recieves too hard a jolt. Then throw it at someone. Arcane claymores.

I prefer pyramids. (I DM a lot.)

[Caffeine and Painkillers]

Exploding things and/or chain lightning.

Or as my dust mephit sorceress discovered, caltrops, when dropped from a very great height.

When you say pyramids, do you mean you drop them out of the sky or what?

[Genshiro]

Scythe. With Power Attack and a decent strength score, if you crit then whatever it is will most likely die. Yeah. Freaking awesome.

IF you crit.

[manriki]

keen scimitar or scythe choppy,choppy

[Peddy]

Quarterstaff.


And no, I'm not kidding.

[Nallof]

FULLBLADE yeah. 2d8 19-20 X2 crit cant complain.

[TheJet20]

masterwork compound shocking burst longgbow (+2) 1d6+1d8 damage, 19-20 crit, 3Xcrit (+2d10)

so on a crit you can cause up to 62 points of damage in 1 shot. My character right now can fire 4 times a round. In the extremely unlikely event they all rolled up crits: 248 damage in one round.

whatever's best for the character in question, though some stand out as pretty exceptional.

rapier is always good, especially now that there's oversized two-weapon fighting in complete adventurer.

two-bladed sword was the best two-fighting weapon for a while, since you could power attack with both weapons (since neither of them are light). still good for strength rangers.

fear the tricksy heavy flail fighter.

armour spikes. off-hand attack that doesn't use an arm to wield? where's my greatsword... there. now i'm ready to fight with two weapons biggrin

[Draco Obscura]

I'm also rather fond of one of my former DMs nastiest cursed items, the vorpal longbow. When drawn, the string severs the drawers fingers

[Spiritual WD40]

Spiked chain.

10 foot reach, and can be used against adjacent foes, throw in some combat reflexes for a fistfull of 10-foot away AoO's

Can be used for Tripping,
Gains +2 for disarming

and it's Finessable.

Is there anything it cant do?

[Ristis]

It honestly depends on the characters personality.

But, i tend to prefer finesse weaponry.. with punching dagger being my favorite.
