I heard that you get 3 attack skills, and I suspect that it also raises
your damage rating by one full class (good to great, great to tremendous,
etc).

The only time I won't use a character's favorite weapon is if he seriously
lacks the SZ for it (the infamous SZ 4 Wastes whose favorite is the Great
Sword), otherwise I always do.  You just seem to gain too much from using
it to put it aside.  RSI has also indicated that your character will tend
to win more close fights when using his/her favorite.

Nothing wrong with that, is there?
