Crying is free!!!

Suggestion:

Remove "Axe" as an useable weapon for Paladin and align heavy weapons to match its light weapons on Chars Requirement lists (that means, classes that can use swords, can use longswords, staves-polearms, daggers-spears, etc.)

Facts:
- The option of having a 2 weapons set only makes one combination to dominate the game;
- The actual 2 weapons dominating set make dex dominating over strenght.

Thoughts:
- We need a flip in economy, a change on META or however you guys want to call it;
- We need to balance the value of each weapon in the game;
- We need to balance STR and DEX value, also giving non wild/light dual stats items a real value.

We would have 24 different combinations possible to go from feeder to alchemist, all need:

- Warhammer, Daggers, Axes
- Warhammer, Daggers, Battleaxes
- Warhammer, Spears, Axes
- Warhammer, Spears, Battleaxes
- Clubs, Daggers, Axes
- Clubs, Daggers, Battleaxes
- Clubs, Spears, Axes
- Clubs, Spears, Battleaxes
- Swords, Polearms, Axes
- Swords, Polearms, Battleaxes
- Swords, Staves, Axes
- Swords, Staves, Battleaxe
- Longswords, Polearms, Axes
- Longswords, Staves, Axes
- Longswords, Staves, Battleaxes
- Longswords, Polearms, Battleaxes
- Swords, Daggers, Axes
- Swords, Spears, Axes
- Swords, Spears, Battleaxes
- Swords, Daggers, Battleaxes
- Longsowrds, Spears, Axes
- Longsowrds, Spears, Battleaxes
- Longswords, Daggers, Battleaxes
- Longswords, Daggers, Axes

Now our options are only 10:

Swords, Staves, Axes
Swords, Staves, Battleaxes
Swords, Spears, Axes
Swords, Staves, Axes
Longswords, Staves, Battleaxes
Longswords, Spears, Axes
Longswords, Staves, Axes
Longswords, Spears, Axes
Daggers, Axes
Daggers, Battleaxes

---

Axes/Battleaxes would appears in 100% of combinations (highest value)
Swords/Longswords - Daggers/Spears in 66.6% of combinations (middle range)
Clubs/Warhammer - Staves/Polearms in 33.3% of combinations (lowest value)

Strength and Dexterity items would have exactly same value.
Lights and Wilds stats would still be the most valuable ones.

Nope. Dont wanna have to buy another set of weapons just to make it thru the game. Good items are hard enough to come by as is.

one good thing is it would make the ladder take longer. having to use something other then an axe on Paladin would mean people would have to use something with less proficiency. that said i have not been playing very long so im going to null vote
