Aye, the Harbinger was easily my favorite original weapon. It was one of the few balanced weapons in the game, given the steps required to receive it.
Like, the Solus, you could use the buy low/sell high trading exploit and get the Solus as soon as you waltz into Bowerstone North. The Harbinger couldn't be purchased and is usually received later on in the game, which would make sense.

The only thing that doesn't make sense is that by the time you can get that weapon, you often have stronger weapons already. Aside from that, the Harbinger is my favorite unique* weapon.

I do agree that it is pretty cool but I mean you really only use it against the White Balverine and in The Arena and almost immediately afterward you can get the Katana Hiryu, which is an obviously more powerful weapon. Besides, Avo's Tear is prolly the largest sword in the game and is much more efficient in compensating for my obvious shortcomings. (That last part was a joke even though Avo's Tear's size, as well as that line going through the middle, are what I like about it.)

I know. Hiryu is more powerful and has a cool name too. Flying dragon.
It looks more like an over-sized dagger than a katana to me. I still prefer Harbinger for its long reach. And why is the katana in LG's bedroom? In the original game, you have to marry her in order to get it. Praise TLC!

Speaking of katana, Daichi looks much more like it. But of course, it's a Fable 2 weapon.

Yeah, I agree. The katana's aren't the coolest looking in Fable/TLC. They're better in II.
Wait, in the original couldn't you expose her as a murder and become the mayor?

The Daichi is my favorite Fable II weapon for sure! Also it's the most powerful.

Re: Favorite weapon?

I like the master longsword. its what I use in both Fable and Fable II. it looks good, and ist over powered but is still good enough to get you though the entire game. I like longswords. plus you can augment it whatever way you want since it isnt legendary.

The Solus Greatsword has 1 open Aug slot and The Bereaver (Only in the Xbox version of TLC) has 2! Both Legendary.

If i don't use cheats I'll need a master longbow or Frying Pan to hold all the mana augments. Master longbow is probably the only ranged weapon I wanna spend money on it.

With the frying pan, if you have 4 mana augs how fast will your mana regenerate with it equipped?

Re: Favorite weapon?

Yes. But it can have 5. You have to put all 5 augs in it at the same time.

Re: Favorite weapon?

Aye, the frying pan can technically hold five augments. There's a bug that allows for a fifth that was discovered by accident when playing around with CTCObjectAugmentations (modding stuff). In theory, this can be done to all weapons, but if I remember correctly, the bug only applies to the frying pan. If anyone wants to check it out.

Re: Favorite weapon?

It won't allow you to assign a 5th element (the 5th aug) into the array once you exit the weapons menu. The array is 0 indexed but there are only 4 slots shown in the menu. They didn't even fix it in TLC.

Re: Favorite weapon?

This is the same with any weapon, if you mod it to have 5+ slots you can add 3 in game, the still add more later. If you add 4 augs then exit the menu, you lose the rest of the slots. If you do it all at once you can add as many as 10 augs to the weapon, if you set it to have 10 slots.

Yes, but the frying pan can do it unmodded. It's a strange bug, haven't figured it out yet. Though, going by what you say, I'm willing to bet that the frying pan is set to have five augment slots. It would explain the pan phenomenon and shed more light on the bug.
