Okay, so we know about the Axes; The plus side being that you can max out your skill in both a melee weapon and a ranged weapon at the same time, and the downside being that (this is where newbies should stop reading) the best axe and the best throwing axe are only +2 [as opposed to the +3s on three other melee weapons in the game], AND you don't find those axes until WAAAAAAAAAY late in the game. We might even know that, even though both of those axes fall under the Axe proficiency, your THAC0 for the Throwing Axe depends on your DEX, not STR. (Intuitive, really, but sometimes you can never be sure.) But those aren't my questions.
When you Identify the Axe+2 and Throwing Axe+2, you get to read their stories and stats. About their stats: They state that the weapon does +2 Damage, but it does NOT list a THAC0 bonus on either one. Did BioWare FORGET to state their improved THAC0? And what were the odds of that happening twice? Will someone near the end of the game please slap one of these axes on somebody and tell me if there's a THAC0 difference? I forgot to do it last time I was there. Thanks.
