I don't know if you can change the choices but if you can, just replace Shadowfang with Quickstrike dagger. Almost no one uses a weapon that gives the player Fatigue.

I'm sticking to my current choice of Skull crusher, but some of my favorites that would go in the "other" category are:
Barbed dagger (can cause bleeding wound), Sword of Shadow's rage (can give yourself blind rage), and Balanced Steel sword (lives up to its name with a good balance of AC, AD and attack cost), and the Fencing blade (only non Legendary weapon that adds to BC, and with a lower attack cost than ElyR).

Say Mino, where does one get the Sword of Shadow's Rage? From Harlenn? I just smoked him, but I don't see it in my inventory. I got Ring of Shadow Embrace, but no sword? Oh, and the Barbed Dagger gives 5% BC too. :-)

I am pretty sure Harlenn gives it to you for siding with BWM, I do not think you can get it if you side with Prim. Hope that helps.

depending on the Char Lvl I use the Rapier of life steeling with lower Chars (if collected) or the best steel sword to buy for all the other Chars.
Tried nearly any weapon with my highest Lvl Char but the mix of 4 attacks per round with high AC and high AD is imho better than hoping for a crit. While having AD of 50++ there are not many monsters to survive the first round so normally I see no need for crits and switching weapons on regular base is too much work atm. So I use only one weapon for all enemies.
I am pretty sure this may change with future versions. ;)

I put in a vote for Chaosreaper. Not because it's the best, (RoL probably) but because it's my favorite. Hitting opponents with a case of chaotic grip is such fun.

Well, I have to go with the Dagger of shadow priest... I am a pure critical build, and frankly, as long as I initiate the attack, the monster does not survive to its first attack phase :D I use the RoL if HP does get low.

I agree, that's a fun one, and with dual wielding could work well with a critical hit weapon - first drop their DR and block chance, then hit them with a critical :twisted:

Since the poll is for favorite, I didn't vote for what I think is the best one either, or even the one I use the most.

Actually I used Flagstone's Pride a lot before picking up DotSP (my choice). Really nice weapon! All depends on build, level and area.
So this weapon you get from siding with BMP, you cannot get it siding with Prim? Sided with Prim with my main, cause I felt they fit my char. Where can you buy Barbed Dagger btw?
