I've been thinking about paladins and holy swords. Throughout legend no paladin was complete without his holy sword by his side defending the helpless and smiting evil. So following that idea, how do you think holy swords should be handled in Vanguard?

Here are several of the ideas I had:

1. Holy Swords are available to the paladin by means of a quest starting about mid level. As the paladin advances in level other quests open up allowing him to upgrade his sword. So the paladin only ever has 1 Holy Sword during his lifetime. Although the power of that sword can and does change.

2. Holy Swords are available to the paladin by means of a quest starting at different levels. Each quest yields a sword of the appropriate level based on the quest. So a paladin could choose to quest for his level 30 holy sword, skip his 40 one, and still get his level 50 one for example.

3. Holy Swords are treated as epic weapons and are only attainable by the highest level paladins and would most likely require a raid to attain.

These are just a few of the ideas I have been kicking around. What do you think?
