What practical use in any way could I possibly have from carrying around a big sword? What the hell I'm I going to do with it? Kill people? Oh ya sure, the sword might give me some special bonuses every now and then, but I'd bet that they'd be related to using the sword or whatever weapon it was in combat. For starters, by nature I am not a fighting person. Second, the attention I would attract from having such a weapon would be bad news. And third, some of the cons listed sucked as well. You might not have total control of the weapon or it might even try to control you to fulfill it's own agenda. Think of Saurons Ring but with more flashy lights and signs above the carriers head marking him out on every available moment. That's lame.
