Why Retribution?
Retribution is an easily obtainable, bound to account weapon that does superior dps in most situations. At level 18 they start to outlive their usefulness but I am still capable of doing damage similar to other fighter classes who use greensteel. Of course some toons blow me away with their super gear but sometimes I still lead the dps boards and in most parties contribute my fair share of dps, and the build holds up quite nicely in the Inspired Quarter.

Weaknesses: Hit points, just north of 300, can be a problem especially if the lag monster strikes. NEW PLAYERS are ECOURAGED to play a DWARF.

Retribution [Threnal Quest chain end reward Longsword]
Holy
Pure Good
True Law

Up until level 14 or so you will be able to do greater than 50% of party DPS using a pair of these weapons.

The Retribution weapons are only meant to be a means of providing dps until grinding for Mineral II Scimitars or other weapons can be obtained.
