my true weapon shall be my razor sharp wit, which I will use to tear apart my enemies fragile psyche. I shall shred their self-esteem, shatter their egos and butcher their self confidence. All shall behold me, and will dispair:devil:

you can use your wit...when you finish imma smack you with my shield....but to be nice i wont cut you with my sword

Since I'm going to play as a mage, I declare my wit includes paralyzing you and frying you with bolts of lightning until your eyeballs burst, (best part of the Sacred Ashes trailer BTW), we'll see how well your little shield works after that;)

(i'll be nice and won't loot your corpse afterwards)

well since u have to mumble a few words before u can cast  ill take that time to throw  a rock to hit u in the face THEN smack u with my shield.......lets see u fry me then

Any 1H weapon and a shield, preferably an axe. Or my favorite sword if there is a 1H variety of it.......The Katana.

... What monster have I created! I don't want to live in a world with lightsabers!

But in all seriousness I would love throwing knives and axes... So I can go ninja.

Two-handed... soup ladle of smashing +5.
I still like the idea of surprising the enemy with an unusual weapon. 

You might be better off with a cast iron frying pan.  Heavy & unwieldy, but can deliver strong, hefty blows.

For me, my favorite weapon is the Double Bladed 2H Axe!  A good example bein NWN1's Great Axe.

Hmm. I wonder if a two-handed sword made of dragonbone, enchanted with runes, would be too heavy? That would be awesome.

Dragonbone is light so it would be like carrying a regular one-handed sword.

Always a sucker for a good bow and arrow set for my stealthly chacters maybe some poison tip arrow heads for that quick kill.

[lv12medic]

I want a crossbow, with pistol grips fore and aft, with a magical scope. Technology for the win! ***while being struck dead by magic***

Dual whips, shield and spear, or a Changdao! (favorite of the favorite)

2h executioner style axe. Always have liked the aggresive appearance of that weapon, even have one incorporated into tattoos

Twin Ninjato for my Human Noble Rogue plzthx. Or a lightsaber?

[AjuntaPall316]

I'm going to wait to play with any "two handed weapons" characters until there is a "Soul Reaver" mod. Best. Sword. Ever.

i would like a spear, but i don't think they have spears in this game.

as far as swords go, i would be thinking a long sword with a 2 handed grip or greatsword with a ricasso, but it really wouldn't matter becasue this game doesn't have such detail with techniques that a ricasso or thrusting blade would matter.  (despite the obvious depiction of plated armors in the videos so far).

i would want it undecorated with a fuller, disc pommel and straight crossguard with no design or frills.

I feel ya brotha'.   We think alike when it comes to weapons.  Typical fantasy swords are ridiculous.  A sword is a tool for killing people.  It looks best when it looks like what it is.

That's a good looking sword.

Reasonably priced and historically accurate.  They have some fantasy swords but overall decent site.

revcasy

I'm with you both. Granted, fantasy is fantasy, but I think it would be great to start seeing medieval-based fantasy RPGs really incoporating the true martial fighting methods actually used by the masters back in the day. For that matter, I wouldn't say a sword is just a tool for killing people, but the style around the use of a longsword, for example, was about more than simply hacking-and-slashing, of course. Especially against plate armor, as you mention. Grappling, working against the bind, strong and weak forces, half-swording (gripping the blade with one hand or on the ricasso for better control, which did happen for those that doubt) could all work just as well as skills in the RPG context.

Me? My perfect weapon would be a longsword. That's the tl;dr answer.

A longsword (double-edged blade) of high carbon steel construction, with a cruciform crossguard and oval-shaped, leather-wrapped hilt. Being a longsword (AKA hand-and-a-half), the hilt has enough room for the use of one or primarily both hands. The crossguard would be mostly straight, but curve slightly up (in the direction of the blade) at each end. The pommel would be a smooth, pear or egg shape to facilitate an easy grip. It would be best classified as an Oakeshotte Type XIII blade, where the edges of the blade run mostly parallel until ending in a rounded tip. The cross-section would be a lenticular design, effective at cutting with less air resistance, with the fuller (AKA blood groove) running about half the length of the blade.

Edit:

I know I'm probably going to be flamed for this, but I don't mean to be a douche when I say:

You might be going for the term wakizashi. Fantasy RPGs like Oblivion have perpetuated the wrong terms for these weapons, though they are subject to some debate. A Katana could technically be easily viable for one-handed use, but then you're missing out on the real mechanics behind it. Of course, this is all in the realm of fantasy so I'll shut up now

My preferred weapon? Give me an armored warhorse I can trample my enemies with. Then give me a spear or lance to get the ones I can't trample. Historically speaking, the spear was long a preferred weapon over the sword, probably due to its better reach.

Correct. But most people don't know what a Wakizashi is, so I went with it. Sue me

[Korgaah]

A Large, Silver Inlay, Dented, blood-stained Ale Mug with which to smash mine enemies and then get smashed later in the evening!

[Novasurge]

I want to wield a shield in each hand, cause that's how the pros fight.

[MrIsidor]

A cat-o-nine-tails would be sweet to have for my rogue to rip the flesh off of her enemies. But I think not even regular whips are in the game.



But thinking a weapon that's really the one of my dreams, it would for my dual wielding rogue be 2 long daggers enchanted with a "vampiric touch" abilty.

[MonkeyHood]

Energy sword

[X2-Elijah]

A twisted deep brown Oaken staff with red runes all over it and a diamond crystal on top that sucks up all incoming magic in itself and unleashes a bolt of pure energy on its own. That'd be cool for my mage.



For a warrior, white steel longsword (one-handed) with azure/deep blue runes with glow on borders and a white flame along the main edge and a crimson one along the secondary edge. And a good crossguard and ornamental diamond counterweight. And a white shield with intricate obsidian pattern.





For the backstabby-thing, two medium length blades,gently curved so that the tip is 60° upwards from the base handle. Both have crimson-covered blade and venomous green cutting edge (poisoned) with tiny, tiny dimples making it sort of saw-like. Elaborate and functional crossguard and a hook at the end of the handle to catch and pull out enemies's blades.

Kodachi is also a very nice one-handed variety of "katana-like" blades, that is sometimes slightly longer than the wakizashi, but always shorter than the katana.

PS: The concern of lightsabers were brought up earlier, but I believe laser swords itself are not copyrighted by LucasArts, however using the beams of light in conjunction with the HILTS constitutes as a breach.

So, if you just attach a glowing blade to a sword hilt, I believe that works just fine. It's when someone decides to make a "Star Wars hilts pack" that they can't be hosted here anymore.

I like maces and hammers more than bladed weapons. A nice big flanged mace and a tower shield would be great. That said, I'm gonna play a mage first .

[Adrigaar]

woo have now drawn my double-bladed 2handed war-axe and designed a kick ass evil eye motif to be engraved on the blade... now just have to go through the tutorials extensively and try to figure out how to use the toolkit to make it
