You're taking this way too seriously and way too personally.

That said, you aren’t even entirely correct. Excalibur is the commonly accepted spelling, sure, but virtually every version of the legend used a different spelling. Geoffrey of Monmouth called it “Caliburnus”, Bulfinch called it “Escalibar”, sometimes it’s “Escalibor”, and some people have even suggested that it’s simply a more modern corruption of “Caladbolg”.

Who are you to make snide comments about Sirtech’s choice of spelling?

And in other news… I always try to keep an extended weapon equipped on my ranger, for reasons already mentioned. If the ranger happens to be a Mook, then the Giant’s Sword works quite well. I’m also not entirely convinced that a ranger does more damage with arrows than he would do with a good melee weapon, in any case.
