You're kidding me?
Two handed swords have a base damage roll of 1D10. That's what makes them good. Lilarcor is available incredibly early in the game. It's a +3 weapon, so it's doing 1D10+3, and gives you a mind shield. That's pretty good for a pissy little quest in some sewer.
The warblade does 1D12+4 damage and is the most powerful weapon in the game.
The unholy reaver does 1D10+4 and any enemy you hit with it will never be able to land a shot again.
I can't possibly agree with this. Carsomyr is fine, but it's not the best two-hander, and definitely not the only two-hander worth getting. Furthermore, two-handers are probably the strongest and most abundant weapons in the game. This isn't just my opinion, it's entirely factual.
For those of you who didn't know, speed factor merely determines at which point in the round the fighter will attack. It doesn't affect how often they attack. In short, the merit of a low speed factor is far less than most people believe it to be.
