To my opnion 1h weapons are quite useless though, I made 2 warriors from the start havent used a 1h throughout the whole game, 1h is good for mages to block attacks with shield if they get passed the DK that is <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />
Another thing is, your speed... as I made an archer of my last warrior and now I think its ment to run away and shoot at your oponent.
This worked quite well in DD but in BD it just seems all monsters are as fast as I am exept for the spiders in act 2 and maybe 3 creatures more, but I cant exactly out run a blood knight, stop to shoot and run away again

So its more or less useless to use a bow/x-bow and just keep to a melee weapon that often deals more damage too.
