962, I rarely worry about how much damage a sword does. Hear's why.

I once won two PK's back to back with the stick from Aldevari. For those that don't know, it's basicly a poormans initial practice weapon. I say this because it does the same damage, but doesn't give you the battle updates.
I used it because had forgotten that I had it wielded in the first place and I managed to execute both fights properly.
That being said, I DO try to have a minimum damage of 16 on a weapon, with or without + Damage requirements. But there is a saying, the best gun to have in a gunfight is the one in your hand. Apply that logic to swords and you'll do fine.
The only other thing I like to do, is keep a 'Golf Bag' of vulnerability exploiting weapons and/or a few extra blades for those disarms/strips/weaponbreaks that cost you a weapon.
A tactic I have used as an evil was to snatch someone's prized weapon, then try to blackmail them for information on where it can befound. I believe this is how I found out where Drow Longswords were, and I promptly ran off to a mob death.

Just remember two things. Upper case letters at the beggining of a scentence, Punctuation at the end. (Spelling and grammar optional.)
