I have been at odds with a concept lately. In games like fire emblem, you get swords, or just plain "weapons" made of better materials as you advance in the story and level your characters up, and each time the weapons tend to do more damage.
THIS I cant seem to find in any of the WoTC books.:smallsigh:
Therefore I have tried to set the damages myself, in the first chapter of my current campaign (we are in the second chapter now), this lead to really silly or downright overpowered weapons. (Fullblade which does 2d12 of damage).
this was my player's reaction:

and after a few rounds of combat, this was mine:

Most of my players were in love with the weapons, but i had to come up with an explanation for the stupidly powerful weapons, and why they wouldn't get weapons as powerful from there on.
I plan on allowing them to make powerful weapons, as they explore and gather ores, that then they can work into metals and then weapons. Thus getting a damage progression chart could be useful.
Any idea if one exists?
