Hmm...my favorite weapon is the chain lash, for munchkin reasons, and the quarterstaff, for true feelings.
I like elvish chain and plate for armor.

Give me some Dwarven made Mithril Chain mail and Mithril+3 warhammer.

Courage isn't the lack of fear but rather believing in and doing what you know is right even though fear is present.

Cursed Sword of Bezerking +3
As for armor....have yet to find one

Exactly what's so great about a kukri? I don't see how it's an exotic weapong that needs extra training . . . .

Fire giants with knives? You must have fought something different than
what I call a fire giant(unless you have created a demi-god).Can I be your beneficiary on your characters life insurance?

Crystal, Keen, gauntlets. I have talked about them before in another topic. Basically you work hard enough on them and enchant them to make them easy to move etc, and you have weapons that do crit 8. 1d6 dmg.

Amor I have to go with normal lether armor. Its flexable as hell. Can be enchanted if you need it so. Etc. Easy to sneak around in, what else could you ask for?

Who need weapons? I`ve got FIREBALLS!!! but if i did`nt i`d probably go for a dagger, enchanted with the greater magic weapon spell. Armor I dont wear.... its troubly some times, but i survive a mage armor and cats grace is often enough....

You may believe there is a all good and loving god who tells you: love everyone, even your strongest enemies! bah! can the torn and bloody victim love the bloodspattered jaws that rend him limb from limb?

Currently, my personal favorite sword is the rapier, mostly because I'm getting into the mind of my newest character.

For him, no armor at all. It just gets in the way, and he -- having the same mentality used for the Duelist PrC -- is more of the mind that the best way to avoid getting hurt is to avoid getting hit. Instead, he's rather liking some spells he's found in the spellbook he, ah, aquired. Mage Armor, Cat's Grace (especially since that one raises his attack bonus), Magic Weapon . . . all niiice. When he can, he'll add Keen Edge and Greater Magic Weapon. He also likes his newfound ability to put touch spells into his blade.

Ah, that fighter there is wearing that shiny armor. Well, now -- what say I just slip my rapier in that crack there . . . .

Feel the sting of my blade, and the bite of my magic.

That is great Bookwyrm except in a knife or sword fight nobody walks away without getting hit,of course I am speaking real life and maybe you can avoid it in your game,they do in the movies.

Mine would have to be a caber...
It's such a ridiculous concept that it would work.

Okay goblins have bigger brains than I do so you will have to explain the caber to me??

The caber is essentially a very large, long wooden pole. In a Scottish game, you pick it up from below, and throw it across a grid. Whoever throws it the farthest wins.

I'm confused. How is this better than a javelin or spear?

Because it would be so ludicrous. Wouldn't a character picking up and throwing a small tree end over end to hit enemies be absurd?

I don't know. If I saw someone throw a tree at me (assuming it wasn't a bonsai) I think I might run.

This is my exact point...
You could probably have the AC of a monk and still get hit by this crudely fashioned weapon that is a tree.
Who would really stand and fight against someone powerful enough to wield a tree (this is a question definitely not aimed at the one with william commenting on his insurance, as he seems he would indeed!)
