Favorit Dynasty weapon?
What is your favored Dynasty weapon, and why? There are too many of them to do a poll, but feel free to list favorites (both might & magic).
My favorite might weapon is the Blade of Binding. The ability to summon a number of juggernauts can work wonders, especially in the early game.
My favorite magic weapon is now the thunder staff. In addition to the lightning rod effect, the grounded effect works wonders against all sort of flying creatures.
Since I normally play necropolis, I used to like the weapons designed with them in mind, e.g. staff of Sandro -- but have come to appreciate the powers of the two above more.

I can see that a fully charged Batu Totem would be good against a magic user -- but what about in playing skirmish games where you are mostly going up against stacks of creatures?

i almost never play maps and when i do - then without DW. Aren't there a couple obvious choices that you simply have to take in maps to creep super fast?
I remember playing the bridge map in MP and my opponent chose some magic DW that gave him a 200-300hp shield or sth like that and he dismantled me. On small maps DW are just way too powerful.
if you were referring to SP - i don;t play (even campaign - played enough to get mommy and 5th slot).
So i can only talk about MP duels from experience and I find Sword of Whostlebone and Wolf's Sword as the best options for might (as these are the only DW i have on lvl 5). Unfortunately i don't have magic DW leveled so i can't sat anything about them.

I play the campaigns rather exclusively, never do duels and rarely single player maps. For Might Heroes, I usually have the Arachne equipped, primarily for the Life Drain ability. I can't begin to calculate how many hitpoints I've drained that way, keeping my troops alive or at least reducing casualties as a result.
But the Web ability can also sometimes be very useful, to reduce movement of enemy stacks that the AI positioned right at a location from which it would reach my stacks on their next move.
For Magic Heroes, I usually vary between the available Dynasty weapons for them. Usually I pick the Magic booster staff that corresponds to their main choice of spells.
