Flail

Attack Type: Crush
Fast for: Cleric, Paladin	Viable for: No one in particular
Uniques/Document Weapons: Morning Star, Flail of Ancient Demolition, the Xenophobe

Pros: Good damage, very nice high end choices now
Cons: Heavy, somewhat uncommon
High End Choices: Morning star gets a very nice bonus when hitting humans, and does reasonable damage anyway. The vicious looking flail is just your average high end non unique. The flail of ancient demolition is a 2hander that has chance of knockdown. Dire flail is a semi unique that has a high skill requirement and level requirement, occasionally causes enemy to freeze up. Two handed mithril flail generic semi unique. The Xenophobe is a document weapon, and like most document weapons, is great.
Two Weapon Choices: Not a whole lot of good options. Cat o' nine do ok but pretty meh damage, rangermade whips and maybe other whips like the scythe one and lizard one.
