fel hafter vs. golvern morning star

[vontez]

I am working on a new warrior, and I was wondering which of these is better? My second question is if the fel hafter is better, is the 5 or 6 million more silver for it worth the difference?

[Khariz]

The money difference is the only worthwhile comparison besides damage type.

Felhafters crush and slash, whereas I believe golven stars crush and puncture.

You will run into many critters that you cannot puncture, which is a pain in the ass. Also you have to look at damage factor. I don't have the numbers off hand, but I'm pretty darn sure the waraxe (handaxe) has a better damage factor against just about every armor type (the ones you will care about anyway, like plate and chain).

So is that worth 5 mil more? To me, yes. You'll have to make a personal judgment call though.

Fel-hafted vultite waraxe: +20, handaxe, heavy crit weighting

DF goes to the morning star
AvD is kind of a wash

+5 AS to the morning star
+~5 Crit weighting to the Fel-hafter

5 points of crit weighting equate to about 8 or 9 points of endroll on average for a handaxe.

Edit: thought I would put falchion up there because it's often in the same consideration group.

I'll be damned. Never knew morning stars were that awesome!

I'm leaning toward "No, 5 mil more ain't worth it" now.

I've been saying that for years. <3 me some morning star. Bad part about them is the rarity of really high end ones.
