I'm asking cos I recently posted a thread on another forum asking if anyone would trade my spear 1/1 for a sword and I've had a few offers of Swords with +5 energy and 20% ench mods but still 1/1 for the clean spear.
Which made me think I was maybe being stupid by trading 1/1, and might be better selling the spear and buying a sword.
Spear seems to have a lot more demand than the sword, as for value not sure, think people just like the looks of the spear more and since it's one handed and better looking with same additions you can add to the sword...
