I like swords, they are versatile and aeffective. Additionaly, with a sum of patience, you can get one of those swords. I've heard about whips being overpowered, but it never seemed so for me in adventure mode

Honestly, wandering the caverns for half a dozen hours isn't worth getting one of those swords. I used to have the same attitude and pick swordsman every time in the hopes that I could acquire the best weapon in the game, but after doing it once I realize it just isn't worth it.

Swordsman. The stabby of a spear, combined with the choppy of an axe. In terms of sheer effectiveness though, spearmen have always gotten the highest kill totals for me, mostly due to lucky jabs in the throat or heart.

Steel picks. Those things can do some mighty brutal stuff. My most recent adventure in Masterwork bisected a goblin pyromancer-dark-sorceror with a impaling through the groin.

When first starting out though I go for spears or axes, really.  Large Daggers seem to be quite effective too. Swords are versatile, yes, but it just seems boring to me.

Didn't we have a thread just like this? I remember, it was pretty cool. Eagle guts, feathers, severed arms, antlers, corpses and even bits of Titan...

I wish I had the time to actually get a good weapon and stick with it, but it's like my adventurers are all cursed or something.

-walks miles searching for civilization, dies by boogie men.
-same as before, 50 more times.
-tries to find a way around a river next to the fortress that I started in to get to a quest, gets sneak attacked by a crapload of snake people =_=

Yeah, I'm not lucky...

If I have to choose MAYBE dying to wolves, giant dingos or bandits and CERTAINLY dying to boogeymen if my squaddies get whacked, I'll take the bandits and critters.

I can't be the only one who imagined monsters in disco getup challenging you to a dance-off in the middle of the night, can I?
