Splitting this out here to give it a bit of attention:
>>Would there be some sort of issue with perhaps giving barbarians some sort of weapon bonding? The more you use a particular weapon the stronger the bond becomes? Maybe even have the bond decay over time....such as the bond weakening the longer the barbarian neglects to use that weapon?
>>Perhaps the bond could provide bonuses such as more inner fire per kill with that weapon, or a slight boost in the weapons stats....I'm sure there's plenty of other things that can be done.
>>I'm sure this type of thing has no doubt been mentioned somewhere in the past
I really like this idea (minus the weapon stat increase) also. Maybe combine it with a way to give our weapons proper names, and make it a quest.
