 ** Warding (and even that's worth money with good rolls)
 Power Armor is all about getting just enough survivability from PMI and then adding as much face-smashing ADB as you possibly can.  It's usually mixed with a few excellent Plate pieces for survivability.  Slaughter Power with good ADB, STR, and PMI is worth serious money, with Exquisite+ pieces going into the millions (even 4 PAB Superiors).  Protection is next most valuable (and significantly cheaper), with Balance being next in line.  Warding is least favored, but even that can be sold for a decent bit if it's high quality (Sup+) with good PMI and ADB.

	Curse-Weaver is jank. Focus is mostly jank since for most players an Ebony, Katalox or even Redwood focus staff is a better choice. At least Willow has Destruction, and a Demonic Destruction staff could be worth a bit (still not big money, ever). Willow Destruction is severely lacking in raw MDB compared to Katalox or Ebony. It basically has to be Legendary to be useful to high level players.		Curse-Weaver is jank.

	Estoc is probably the best weapon in the game right now. Paired with Heavy Armor, it's got plenty of raw damage combined with a PA proc to tear through monsters quickly. Paired with Shade it makes for a glass cannon, so Mace is preferred for Shade builds, since the Stun allows them to avoid lots of damage. Slashing weapons are presently out of favor at high levels, since the Bleed changes and because PA is so very powerful. Slaughter is the best suffix by far for all 2H weapons. Drain suffixes only proc on the primary target, so they aren't as good as they are on 1H weapons.		Estoc is probably the best weapon in the game right now.

	Ethereal is preferred over Elemental for 2H because Elemental Strike only procs on the main target, and because 2H have high B/I otherwise. In fact, vanilla 2H weapons are almost always worthless to the high level players, barring absurd stats. High Ethereal 2H can be worth as much as 10x more than an equivalent vanilla 2H.

	The Estoc is the fastest killing melee weapon in the game. This makes them quite popular. An Exquisite+ Ethereal/HDA Estoc of Slaughter with good numbers is big money, potentially very big. Estocs are primarily used by high level players, since PA does very little to monsters that only have <10% PMI in the first place. This means that very good ones are worth a lot, and mediocre ones are basically worthless (no 200+ will use an Exquisite Estoc of Balance, they want Exq+ Slaughter or Legendary anything and strongly prefer Eth/HDA).

	Like Longswords, but good. Better Bleed damage and better attack damage make Scythes attractive on lower difficulties, where they can be used to quickly clear rounds. Slaughter is good, most other suffixes are meh to bad.

	Wakizashis are rare, glorified Daggers. They're worth a bit because of their rarity, otherwise they follow the same principles as Daggers. Their primary use is Niten Ichiryu, which isn't particularly popular due to prof issues (and gimped Domino Strikes), so their price is not particularly high.		Wakizashis are rare, glorified Daggers.
