Crafting of certain weapon types already requires wood, like crafting a mace.
Yes. sabu was saying that the wood of such weapons should affect the powers of the weapon.
Its kinda blah and annoying to see that everyone (yes, i'm generalizing and I know it), everyone uses one handed sword if its in their guild
Generalizing is okay. Completely wrong generalizations are bad. Everyone uses blade if it's available? I wonder when the last time was that a Nightblade trained blade as their primary weapon.
"Everyone" goes knife if it's available because it's the cheapest weapon. Beyond knife, many use axe due to the same cheap dev cost. After that, it's a crapshoot. Essentially, people gravitate to the cheapest weapon available.
