Well I did have one player who had a weapon focus in the form of nunchaku
-I thought it was good (concealability is great) and was a lot more
original than just another sword or knife. But I agree wholeheartedlt
about the Monowhip and everything else.

In fact I would make any player who wants to make a weapon focus to have
a very good Melee B/R (this isn't just repair its creation) and of course
the equipment at least a Shop, which in itself costs a lot.
