Halberd +1: Loot from Anarg, Fallen Paladins Quest, Temple/Bridge District

Dusk Halberd +2: Temple Ruins, Shadow Patrick (Umar Hills Quest)

Harmonium Halberd+3: Dierdrie, Adventurers Mart

Dragons Bane +3: Unseeing Eye quest, Temple District, Beholder City

Drow Halberd +3: Underdark, various locations

Blackmist +4: Underdark, from Matron Mother

Dragons Breath +4: Found from party ambush encounter, Underdark, on Boz IIRC

Halberd +4, Wave: Forged by Cromwell, Chapter 6

Halberd +4, Ravager: Watchers Keep, ToB

Halberd +6, Ravager: ToB, forged by Cespenar

Best to wield IMO, is the Harmonium from Dierdrie since it grants +1 STR, using Dragons Bane against dragons, and eventually using the Wave in chapter 6. In ToB, you'll want the Ravager of course

From the ones Jim mentioned, the one avaliable in chapter 1-3 non-ToB is:
Halberd +1
Dusk Halberd +2
Harmonium Halberd (only if you have the Bonus Merchants)
Dragons Bane +3

And if you're asking for suggestions for a class that is good with Halberds, my suggestion is:
Make your guy a plain Fighter, or a Berserker.
Give him good profs in Strength, Constitution and Dexterity. And if you have patience enough, you can roll the dices many times, so he also can be intelligent and wise. A good Charisma is not necessary, cause you can get a ring that boosts your Charisma up to 18 almost at the start of the game.
His weapon-proficiences can be something like:
+++ Halberd
+ Warhammer (always good to have profs in some blunting-weapon )
++ Two-Handed Weapon style

This should make a good character.


see ya!

I like halberds, but they pretty much suck until TOB. They do some damage, but not much more than the plethora of good 1H/Bas swords available... the swords are quicker and also allow the use of a shield.
