Exactly, Archers are not nearly as affected as a fighter by this change. A fighters to-hit and damage bonus' are for the weapon groups slash, pierce or bludgeon. A slashing spec'd fighter thus loses +3 to-hit and +6 damage by picking up a bludgeon weapon. Pally's still maintain sacred, barbarians rage... and the ranger archer still has his favored.

Guess ya forgot about the monks. If they are neutral might as well just delete or go spend the 48 larges on a pair of in essence +5 holy silver kamas and still not be able to use any of your special monk attacks while you are at it.
