I did a little further testing with the magadragon, here the results
Fists ~600
Club 45
Halberd 44
Ruby dagger 43
Platinum halberd 42
Sapphire flail 41
Diamond handaxe 40
Obsidian handaxe 38
Obsidian halberd 37
Obsidian trident dragon slayer 13
Xeen Slayer Sword 5
- a fully buffed barbarian (level 305+level 255 day of protection) could take out the megadragon in 3 hits with the xeen slayer sword.
- with optimal preparation you can survive more than 170 rounds with the megadragon
- x3 weapons are great since the x3 applies to all bonusses. A simple glass club dragon slayer would have been more than twice as damaging than any obsidian weapon.
- at high levels it doesn't matter how lousy your weapon is, the damage difference between obsidian flamberge and nonmagical club is only about 20 percent
- it's important to wield a weapon, no matter how poor it is, it's still far better than using fists.
