Is it useable only by the paladin? If it is not, what is the best two handed for a kensai/mage (two handed prof.)?
The lilacor?

Polysome,

Carosmyr is only usable by Paladins in SoA. Lilicor is a fine weapon (due to confered immunities), says some pretty funny stuff and only really has the draw back of being +3 and not doing any elemental (etc) damage. The sword of chaos is worth getting and keeping because of the +1 healing it does, but it alas is only +2. The only easily obtainable +4 two handed weapon is the Staff on Rhynn(sp) (+4) which you can buy from Ribald. Most other better two handed weapons are only obtainable in the later stages of the game. - Curdis

Thanks for the reply.

I will probally skip the Staff of Rynn since it is of the wrong prof.

How do you obtain the warblade?

You buy it from Ribald (After you have been to the underdark) which can be very late in the game. - Curdis

note: a lot of people say soul reaver is a better blade, and the silver sword is a top priority if you have tob installed.

greater whirlwind and vorpal effects is incredible to behold.

soul reaver, like holy avenger, has a way of penetrating defenses, like avengers dispell magic. the thalco reducing effects of soul reaver can punch thru protections, and this is the blade for hitting creatures with a vicious hand to hand attack.

avenger is for killing mages, goes thru most defenses a mage has, expcially upgraded, will go thru absolute immunity, but there are so many ways to punch thru mage protections, its really only good for the 5-% resist to magic.

aslternative is viccy with various armor and amultes can get 100% resist to magic, or if you don't want a paladin, and I sure don't! Kelddy is too overrated as a fighter.
Is to have jan jansen in the party and with tob eventually he will be high enough in level to use it backstabbing. be sure he has a major str belt!

at least one forum member who plays chavalier or paladin kit has said this was a not good idea...the idea of that diminutive wittle gnome wielding th holy of holies, made me want to try for sure!

EEr.. backstabbing with the Holy Avenger?? I dun think so. isnt it a rule somewhere u can only backstab with a dagger only? Coz I tried doing that with a katana with Valygar (I think).. it didnt work.. grrrr

You can backstab with any weapon thief can get proficiencies in. Two-hander is not one of those weapons. I have backtabbed numerous times with Valygar wielding Celestial Fury. And with Yoshimo using his starting Katana.

Valygar's personal katana is bugged, and (ironically) the only katana that cannot backstab...

What about the Psion's Blade? Is that any good? What level should I be before I pay Gerayle(?) the 15000gp.
