So, this card... yeah, I can't help but look at it and think it could be better. Right now, would I ever use it? Probably not. Why take this when I can just use a bow? Or a weapon that fits or does better damage? My recommendation: Make it Shield or Weapon instead of just Weapon. As an "off-hand" weapon, along with a more standard weapon (perhaps the obviously companion Knife), it suddenly becomes an alternate attack option when things try to run away, while still letting you have a high-damage melee attack at the ready.
What do you guys think?
