I'M focusing,specializing on longsword and great sword. maybe I should go with great sword and bastard sword?? or is it a waste?
Sorry dude...your question took on a life of its own.

I thought Wolfgir and Sir Exxon answered your question anyway, but to specifically reply to it - the classical 3rd Ed PnP Holy Avenger is a longsword, as paladins would fight with it and a shield in the other hand. Carsomyr from BG2 is a greatsword. You can give any item Holy Avenger properties using the toolset - you can have a Holy Avenger Greataxe if you want.

As Tobbin has spoiled above, Aribeth's sword has Holy Avenger properties, meaning it gives 1d6 Divine damage. That's all the Holy Avenger property does AFAIK. And Aribeth's sword has alignment restrictions anyway, so unless you're planning to be a blackguard (evil paladin which is not an available char class anyway) you won't be able to use it. Hope this helps. [img]smile.gif[/img]
