Ok after playing Divinity for awhile I can't help but notice that there is way too much emphasis on the 1 handed and 2 handed swords. What about the people who want to use axes, maces, hammers, there is no real good variety on these weapons. All the good quest weapons seem to be swords. My warrior maxed axe skill right away and it just depressing to see sword after sword go by while my 80-120dmg 2 handed axe slowly becomes obsolete. Also the sword skill is way more powerful than the axe skill is, you're just about guaranteed that you will not miss at skill 5 and the +50% dmg is better than a fixed dmg amount in the long run when you get the higher dmg swords. Not to mention the generous speed increases that are beyond the axe skill increases.
I guess maybe the rare and good weapon drops are too far in between meanwhile there are a few quests that force high quality swords in our faces like "here's you're upgrade sword-users! grats! all the rest of you can rot!"
Otherwise, awesome game, just had to rant about weapons hehe.
