Introduction
============
This guide intended to answer how different types of weapons compare with each
other in terms of damage per round. It could be useful for melee characters when
selecting weapon feats.
Two scenarios are given: average weapon usage - with typical weapons and
character near 15 lvl, and high-level weapon usage - with most powerful weapons
in the game, including HotU, and high-level character. Additionally, several
weapon choices for Weapon Master are listed, because of unique feats which give
+2 range / +1 multiplier to criticals. Finally, in the last table, weapons
forged by Rizolvir are compared.
To simplify calculations character always hits the target, except when rolling
critical miss.

* Note that Mercykiller Blade +2 have +1d6 Fire dmg vs Evil (not counted by
Rizolvir as damage upgrade), which was included in the calculation, without
it weapon would be ranked 7th.

Rizolvir as damage upgrade), which was included in the calculation, without
it weapon would be ranked 11th.
Conclusions
===========
Overall, Scythe is the champ for high damage in all cases, because of that
x4/x5 criticals, but Greatsword is close and you have one less feat to spend.
Exotic two-handed 1d8/1d8 weapons, like Double Axe, are suck, and really not
worth spending extra feat on them.
From one-handed, Scimitar is a great weapon, not exotic and considerably better
than boring Longsword.
The gap between weapons is wider for Weapon Master, but still Greatsword or
Greataxe would be reasonable choices and Katana looks pretty good with that +12.
For forged weapons, picture is more or less the same, but Scythe lead widens.
It is clearly that Death's Handmaiden, with six Rizolvir upgrades and original
Keen / Vampiric Regen +3 properties, becomes uber weapon of decapitation.

calculation.

Thanks to GameFAQs.com, you are the best.
Math
====
This part is for those who want to check how the damage was calculated.
Damage formulas, without OC
AvDam*(NormalHit_Chance + CritRollThenMiss_Chance + Mult*CritRollThenHit_Chance)
19-20x2: AvDam*(17/20 + 2/400 + 2*38/400) = AvDam * 1.045
19-20x3: AvDam*(17/20 + 2/400 + 3*38/400) = AvDam * 1.14
19-20x4: AvDam*(17/20 + 2/400 + 4*38/400) = AvDam * 1.235
17-20x2: AvDam*(15/20 + 4/400 + 2*76/400) = AvDam * 1.14
17-20x3: AvDam*(15/20 + 4/400 + 3*76/400) = AvDam * 1.33
15-20x2: AvDam*(13/20 + 6/400 + 2*114/400) = AvDam * 1.235
Damage formulas, with OC
19-20x2: AD*(17/20 + 2/400 + 2*38/400) + 3.5*38/400 = AD * 1.045 + 0.3325
19-20x3: AD*(17/20 + 2/400 + 3*38/400) + 7*38/400 = AD * 1.14 + 0.665
19-20x4: AD*(17/20 + 2/400 + 4*38/400) + 10.5*38/400 = AD * 1.235 + 0.9975
18-20x2: AD*(16/20 + 3/400 + 2*57/400) + 3.5*57/400 = AD * 1.0925 + 0.49875
18-20x3: AD*(16/20 + 3/400 + 3*57/400) + 7*57/400 = AD * 1.235 + 0.9975
18-20x4: AD*(16/20 + 3/400 + 4*57/400) + 10.5*57/400 = AD * 1.3775 + 1.49625
17-20x2: AD*(15/20 + 4/400 + 2*76/400) + 3.5*76/400 = AD * 1.14 + 0.665
17-20x3: AD*(15/20 + 4/400 + 3*76/400) + 7*76/400 = AD * 1.33 + 1.33
15-20x2: AD*(13/20 + 6/400 + 2*114/400) + 3.5*114/400 = AD * 1.235 + 0.9975
12-20x2: AD*(10/20 + 9/400 + 2*171/400) + 3.5*171/400 = AD * 1.3775 + 1.49625
Damage formulas, WM with OC:
17-20x4: AD*(15/20 + 4/400 + 4*76/400) + 10.5*76/400 = AD * 1.52 + 1.995
16-20x4: AD*(14/20 + 5/400 + 4*95/400) + 10.5*95/400 = AD * 1.6625 + 2.49375
16-20x5: AD*(14/20 + 5/400 + 5*95/400) + 14*95/400 = AD * 1.9 + 3.325
15-20x3: AD*(13/20 + 6/400 + 3*114/400) + 7*114/400 = AD * 1.52 + 1.995
13-20x3: AD*(11/20 + 8/400 + 3*152/400) + 7*152/400 = AD * 1.71 + 2.66
10-20x3: AD*(8/20 + 11/400 + 3*209/400) + 7*209/400 = AD * 1.995 + 3.6575
I believe WM Increased Multiplier affects OC, giving additional +1d6 to each
critical, though I could be wrong.
Keep in mind that:
- Criticals multiply everything (actually damage is rolled 2x/3x/4x/5x times)
- STR bonus for 2-handed is 50% greater than typical and off-hand attack for
2-bladed have 50% less bonus than typical
- Weapon Specialization gives +2
- Epic Weapon Specialization gives another +4
- Improved Critical doubles critical range, with Keen range will be tripled
- Overwhelming Critical add +1d6 for x2 critical, +2d6 for x3 critical and so on
- Massive Criticals property on weapon always overrides Overwhelming Critical
