I have an Elven Swashbuckler. 3 skilll points in two weapon combat, one each in short sword and longsword. I am debating putting a point in Katanas since I also own Celestial Fury. However my main hand THACO will drop since I lose the Elven Longsword bonus. My current THACOS are 2 and 4.. If I switch, they will be 4 amd 4. Are the benefits of Celestial Fury worth the loss of 2 THACO points?

    I experimented, and wielding Celestial Fury my THACO actually drops by 3. A THACO of 6 isn't going to hit much of anything, so I suspect I'll forget about that for now. Unless someone comes up with a good reason why the Katana is better. Booming Thunder sounds nice, but you have to actually hit the target to trigger it. The lightning is decent but only functions once a day.
