Hi, I just started a new character, a combat char. So I just wondered what you guys think is the best weapon in the game and how to get it. Thanks

umbra ftw

do the quest for jensine in the market district and when you kill the guy in the tomb look behind on of the coffins and youll find a good mcae i think it is. good for start if not longer.

daedric warhammers are the best non enchanted weapons. But you wont see those till lwvel 20+.

Umbra is perhaps one of the most usefull weapons in the game in combination with Azura's Star. It has a high base damage and its soul trap enchantment makes soul trapping easy. Then there are enchanted Daedric weapons which don't have as much base damage (damage before enchantment), but with the enchantment they can do much more cumulative(sp?) damage. Daedric war hammers have the highest base damage, but are two-handed and wiegh a lot and they are somewhat slower than other smaller weapons. Oh, and don't be fooled by Dremora weapons, they look the same but their stats are much lower. If you had the Knights of the Nine expansion I would suggest the Crusader's Sword. Long blade, one handed, nice base damage, nice fire enchantment, can still use a shield. Final note, I got my first Daedric longsword in an Oblivion gate at around level 12.
