in overall combat terms sword + shield is a better combo than two handed weapon, though as an archer it matters less cept vs other archers, but shields provide alot of protection and single handed weapons hit alot quicker and do almost as much damage as twohanded anyway, plus twohanded are normally 1d10, 2d4 (bastard sword) has better minimum damage (with my luck i need it [img]tongue.gif[/img] ) i prefer the guarantee of 2 to the guarantee of 1, also means the averages are better and i hit more often, a higher maximum doesnt help overly much, though spidersbane is a very good weapon, theres better longswords about when coupled with shields i find.
