The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind Hints
Best Weapons
This is a list of the very best weapons that you can find in every weapon skill category. Some of the weapons were chosen for their sheer damaging power, others for their great enchantments. I don't list exactly why I think each weapon is so great, but you'll easily be able to see when you get it. When trying to decide which one to go for next, see which one is easiest to get to -- they're all super great, never fear.
NOTE: Keening and Sunder, the two ultra-important main quest weapons, aren't listed due to the extreme difficulty of using them early in the game.
