Leveled to 19th and same same, first 2handed sword I crafted came out with damage about the same or less than the 18th level blade, then I reloaded and re-crafted and lo and behold a higher damage version of the Claymore appeared.
Okay at least I know now.
thanks for all the help guys.
If anyone knows? IS the type of weapon random or fixed by level or does it pick what you are going to make another way?
what I mean is, there are 3 types of 2handed sword in the game ( Zweihander, Claymore and Flamberge) but you cannot pick which one you are making only that it is a 2handed sword and that the type changes, I dislike FLamberges and wish to only make Zweihanders or Claymores thats why I am asking.
