Can someone explain the differences between the weapons.  IE which is best 
and worst and why.  Also what are the different types of rings?  Especially,
what does a ring/adornment(I think thats it) do?

you fail to say which version of rogue you are running.  most versions
have the two-handed sword as the nastiest weapon when unenchanted.
our version has a claymore, which a slightly lighter two-handed sword
which does 3d7 damage instead of 3d6.  we run a hacked advanced rogue
2.0.

I wrote this in net.games.hack, so that is what I was asking about.
I know that the two hander is better in rogue, but it does not seem much
better in hack, my mace seems to do just as well.
