13 chapters, heh, maybe I will get the expansion after all (if it is true that is)

Your kensai is a sword saint, but it doesn't matter, because Crom faeyr gives you a lot of bonuses that makes your THACO even better than with a sword. You will also get nice damage bonuses that you can't say no to. These bonuses will be added to your sword in your main/off-hand too, so Crom Faeyr should really be used.

Yes, the definite benefit to have STR at 25, but putting it on offhand has one advantage, you can switch main hand weapon while keeping all the Crom Faeyr bonuses.

Personally I like the Blackrazor + Belm(+2 , + 1 attack)
that gives me 6 or 7 attacks when the Blackrazors haste kick in.
What do you guyes think of this combo?

Also about the Black razor, do all its ablities kick in at the same time or is it 20% per ability?

What happens when you get to negative weapon speed , which can happen with the Kensai?

Finally can two handed beat dual wielding in terms of damage output in a period of say 10 rounds(assume 18/00 str and optimal weapon combo - you decide wich)?

It seems to me that the sword always gives you an str bonus right away and if you get teh 20 some percent chance then the rest kick in, haste ect.

early on in the game you want to be really good at one type and then build up the other you also want abot2 in dualwielding anyway at the start your either good with longswords or katanas the longswords to go for are blade of roses and the daystar and the katanas are celestial fury and any other one you can think like belm
dont bother with 2 handed sword because the best 2 handed aword in the game carsomyr can only be used by paladins

Personally, I think Vorpal blade is better, but you get that a little later in the game.

My kensai/thief uses celestial fury and crom faeyr combo. The 25 strength crom faeyr gives make a kensai a sword monster.
